Grapplergear.com
will take all appropriate steps to keep your personal
information confidential. Those steps include limiting
access to client
information databases, communicating this policy statement
to all
grapplergear.com employees and establishing and enforcing
penalties for
violating this statement.
Grapplergear.com will not
sell, rent, or give away our clients' personal
information to other companies for use in selling others'
products or
services. When we do contract with another company to
market or advertise
products or services for us, we will insist on binding
agreements from
those companies protecting our client information. We
will vigorously
enforce all privacy agreements we have with other companies.
We gather personal information
from our clients so we can better develop
our relationship with those clients. Occasionally, we
seek client comments
on our products and services. These comments allow us
to determine which
products and services our clients should be made aware
of based on their
specific needs.
We will communicate with clients
via e-mail or other online delivery
devices only if the client agrees to receive those communications.
Clients, who believe they are receiving our communications
in error or no
longer desire to receive them, should inform us and we
will remove those
clients' names from our mailing lists.
Grapplergear.com has teamed
with others to provide our clients withenhanced
Internet services. In providing such services, our business
partners also may
request personal information from our clients. We prohibit
these business partners
from selling or giving away our client information and
we require them to have a posted
Privacy Policy, so that our clients may review it before
providing personal information to our
business partners.
We currently use the Secure
Sockets Layer (SSL) protocol to safeguard your
information, including your credit card number, during
online
transactions. None of the tens of thousands of people,
who have made
purchases through grapplergear's Web site using SSL, have
reported to us
fraudulent use of their credit card as a result of their
online order. SSL
is a very safe encryption method, but we are always looking
for even more
secure encryption methods to safeguard information sent
online. Our server
will run detection software to help ensure you are using
a secure browser
and your information is secure when you check out. If
our browser
determines you are not using a secure browser, a message
will appear at
checkout.
To protect your information
once your transaction is complete,
grapplergear.com stores your information on an off-line
server stored
securely behind our firewall. There is no external access
to this
information and its internal access is strictly monitored.
For your protection, never
put your credit card number or other sensitive
information in unencrypted e-mail. In the extremely unlikely
event that we
ever do suspect a client's credit card number has been
intercepted, we
will immediately notify the client.
