It is completely up to you whether or not you provide it.

Third party service providers and your purchasing/return activities:

We do not collect or store your credit card number, or your debit card information (or other payment method). We use third party providers to do this for us. At present, we use Verifone to process payments for us. We also use third party providers to prevent fraud in our transactions. If you use a particular source of funds (for example your PayPal account), those sites and applications will collect your transaction information. These are accounts you created, and you should review the terms of use and privacy policies of those providers that you choose. When you: proceed to check out, or ask us to credit a return, your transaction information, including your name, email or other points of contact, and payment information is stored by our third party provider(s). You can check out as a “guest” without creating an account. Our service providers that process payments and monitor and detect fraud have represented that they are PCI (payment card industry) compliant, and they have committed to maintain your information in accordance with applicable laws. These third party providers are not authorized by us to use the information you provide for your purchases, credits, returns, and account information except to help us do our business with you, or as required by law (for example, to confirm there is no fraudulent transaction).

 

Third parties to which your information is disclosed:

 We may disclose personal information that we collect or that you provide as described in this privacy policy:

  • To our subsidiaries and affiliates;
  • To contractors, service providers, and other third parties we use to support our business as described in this Policy (for example, to process payments and to detect fraud)
  • Onward Transfers: To a buyer or other successor in the event of a merger, divestiture, restructuring, reorganization, dissolution, or other sale or transfer of some or all of our assets, whether as a going concern or as part of bankruptcy, liquidation, or similar proceeding, in which personal information held by the Company about our Website users or customers is among the assets transferred; and
  • Other parties with your consent.

We may also disclose your personal information:

  • To comply with any court order, law, or legal process, including to respond to any government or regulatory request;
  • To enforce or apply our Terms of Use
  • If we believe disclosure is necessary or appropriate to protect the rights, property, or safety of our business, our users or customers, or others.

Other than with regard to an onward transfer, we do not sell your information.
