Stuff4Office, Inc. values the privacy of our customers and takes every known precaution
to safe guard the information we collect from unauthorized use. The following
is a detailed explanation of the privacy policy for Stuff4Office.
WHAT INFORMATION DO WE COLLECT?
Stuff4Office believes it is important for you to know what types of information
we collect when you use our site. We employ various methods for collecting information.
To begin with, we use cookies that are needed to compile aggregate non-personally
identifiable information about the visitors to our web site. Personally identifiable
information consists of information that is unique to you, such as credit card
numbers, bank accounts, social security numbers, home address, email address and
the like. This is the type of information that most people consider private and
deem the most important to protect from unauthorized access. Non-personally identifiable
information most often consists of things such as your search preferences, the
types of products you have bought, how many times you have visited a particular
web site, etc. This type of information is usually associated with a particular
computer or IP address but not with a particular person. Cookies are pieces of
information generated by a Web server and stored in the users computer, ready for future access. Each time you access
our web site; our server finds the relevant cookie on your computer. The information
contained within that cookie is then used to customize your experience with our
site. The following is a list of the information we collect:
Name and Address for mailing of prizes
Email Address
Mailing Address
Birth date
Credit Card Information
WHY DO WE COLLECT THIS INFORMATION?
We use this information in order to serve the needs of our customers. We need
to know who you are in order to verify the credit card information you have sent
us. We collect several pieces of personal information from you in order to complete
this verification process. The non-personal information that we collect from you
is used in order to offer you better service and to make your experience with
our site more enjoyable. Any information that we may inadvertently collect from
you, that does not serve one of these reasons stated above, is immediately purged
from our system.
HOW IS YOUR INFORMATION PROTECTED
We use SSL encryption to ensure that any sensitive information that is sent by
you to us via the Internet is protected from unauthorized interception. Passwords
are required in order for you to gain access to your account. Once an account
has been terminated, measures are taken to remove those users from the system
who no longer need access to our system.
WHO HAS ACCESS TO MY INFORMATION
Only those employees that are responsible for handling your account have access
to your information. Additionally, employees in our technical department may have
access to your information in order to conduct routine checks on the integrity
of our system and in
order to perform necessary maintenance work. Should you choose to receive additional
information regarding one of our services or products, we may pass your email
address to one of our partners who offers similar products or services that you
might be interested in. Additionally, judicial requests by a duly authorized court
will require us to divulge certain information regarding your account should that
situation arise. Finally, should our company ever be bought or sold, your account
information would then become the property of the new owner/entity.
CAN I CORRECT OR REMOVE INFORMATION FROM YOUR SITE?
You always have the option to view your account to make sure the information we
have collected from you is indeed correct. You also have the option of removing
any information from your account that you wish to keep private. However, please
note that removing certain information such as your email address, contact information,
and the like may greatly hinder our ability to effectively provide the service
or products you have requested.
CAN I OPT OUT OF HAVING CERTAIN INFORMATION COLLECTED?
You have the option of disabling your computers ability to accept or transmit
cookies. This will prevent us from gathering certain non-personally identifiable
information from you. You also have the option of removing yourself from any email
distribution list that you may have signed up for.
NOTICE OF CHANGES TO THIS PRIVACY POLICY
We reserve the right to change this privacy policy at any time. However, if any
changes do occur, we will publish the changes to our web site and post a notice
on the home page that a new privacy policy has been implemented. We will also
take reasonable steps to contact you personally to let you know of the new changes.
Should the company be bought or sold to someone else, we will take reasonable
steps to notify you personally. You will then be given the option to keep your
account open or to terminate.

that information is encrypted and is protected with the best encryption software
in the industry - SSL (Secured Socket Layers). While on a secure page, such as

not.
