WEBSITE VISIT TRACKING TECHNOLOGIES
As is standard practice on many corporate websites, the Website uses “cookies” and other technologies to help Club Colors understand which parts of the Website are the most popular and the preferences of Club Colors users, as well as to facilitate navigation throughout the Website. Club Colors may also use cookies and other technologies to study traffic patterns on the Website, to improve its functionality and usability as well as to improve the effectiveness of Club Colors’ communications with its customers. Club Colors may also use cookies to customize your experience and provide greater convenience to you during your interactions with the Website. A cookie is a unique alphanumeric identifier that websites use to help identify the number of unique visitors to a website, whether or not those visitors are repeat visitors, and the source of the visits. Cookies cannot be executed as code or used to deliver a virus and thus pose no threat to you. Servers and Websites other than the one placing the cookie on your hard drive generally cannot read the cookie, and no personal information can be gathered by other servers from the cookie. If you prefer not to enable cookies or to disable them, you may do so through your web browser’s security settings. Please note that certain features of the Website may not be available once cookies have been disabled.Like most websites, the Website gathers certain information automatically and stores it in log files. This information may include internet protocol (“IP”) addresses, browser type, operating system, internet service provider (“ISP”), referring/exit pages, date/time stamp of access, and clickstream data. When you visit the Website, the server automatically logs your IP address, the time and duration of your visit, and the time and duration spent on the pages of the Website which you view. If you arrive at the Website by clicking a paid advertisement or a link in an e-mail, then the server will capture information that tracks your visit from that link. If you arrive at the Website by clicking on a non-paid source, such as a search engine result or link on another website, the server may capture information that tracks your visit from that source, to the extent available. Club Colors uses this information to analyze trends, to administer the Website, to track users’ movements around the Website and to gather demographic information about Club Colors users as a whole. Club Colors may use the information collected to market directly to you with your consent.In some of Club Colors’ email messages we use a “click-through URL” linked to content on the Website. When you click one of these URLs, it passes information through our web server before arriving at the destination web page. Club Colors tracks this click-through data to help us determine interest in particular topics and measure the effectiveness of our customer communications. If you prefer not to be tracked, simply avoid clicking text or graphic links in the e-mails sent. Club Colors may also use pixel tags, which are tiny invisible graphic images, to tell us what parts of our website customers have visited or to measure the effectiveness of searches customers perform on our Website. Pixel tags may be used as part of Club Colors’ use of third party Website statistics trackers and analyzers which Club Colors employs to track and analyze the data collected from the Website. Pixel tags also enable us to send email messages in a format customers can read, and they tell us whether emails have been opened to assure that Club Colors is only sending messages that are of interest to our customers. We store all of this information in a secure database on our web server.
WHEN CLUB COLORS DISCLOSES YOUR INFORMATION
Club Colors does not sell or rent your personal information to marketers.

Club Colors may make certain personal information about you available to third parties that Club Colors has a strategic relationship with or that perform work for Club Colors to provide products and services to you on Club Colors’ behalf, including but not limited to the company that hosts the Website’s web server.

Club Colors may also disclose information about you if it determines that for national security, law enforcement, or other issues of public importance, disclosure is necessary.

CHILDREN
We do not knowingly collect any personal information from users under the age of 13, nor do we knowingly market to such users. Nevertheless, if we become aware that a user under the age of 13 is attempting to register on the Website or order any products or services on the Website, we will ask that user to provide the email address of his or her parent or guardian. We will then send that parent or guardian an email from us alerting them to the child’s activities.

HOW CLUB COLORS PROTECTS YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION
Club Colors takes administrative, technical, and physical measures to safeguard your personal information against loss, theft, and misuse, as well as unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, and destruction. The Website uses SSL encryption when processing order information during checkout in the online store and collecting and storing any personal and order information. You can also help Club Colors by taking precautions to protect your personal data when you are on the Internet. Be sure to select a password that includes a combination of upper and lowercase letters and numbers which is difficult to guess and do not distribute your password or store it in an unsecure manner. While on a secure page, such as our ordering form, a lock icon on the bottom of web browsers such as Google Chrome, Firefox and Microsoft Internet Explorer becomes locked, as opposed to unlocked, or open, when you are just “surfing.”While we use SSL encryption to protect sensitive information online, we also protect user information off-line. All of the information that we collect, not just the sensitive information mentioned above, is restricted in our offices. Only employees who need the information to perform a specific job (for example, our billing clerk or a customer service representative) are granted access to personally identifiable information. Furthermore, ALL employees are kept up-to-date on our security and privacy practices. Finally, the servers that we store personally identifiable information on are kept in a secure environment. Access to the server area is protected by a multi-level key card system, and all visitor and vendors are escorted at all timesPlease be advised, however, that although we have endeavored to create a secure and reliable site for you, the confidentiality of any communication or material transmitted to/from the Website cannot be guaranteed. We urge you to exercise caution when conveying personal information over the Internet. When disclosing any personal information, you should remain mindful of the fact that it is potentially accessible to the public and, consequently, may be collected and used by others without your consent. You should therefore consider carefully if you want to submit sensitive information that you would not want disclosed to the public. You should also recognize that your use of the Internet and the Website is solely at your own risk. You agree that we have no responsibility or liability for the security of personal information transmitted via the Website or via the Internet in general.
