The following Privacy Policy describes the information
and privacy practices for alwaysBEthere, Inc.
and its subsidiaries’ (collectively, “alwaysBEthere”)
web sites. By visiting an alwaysBEthere web site,
you consent to the information practices described
in this Privacy Policy.
This Privacy Policy does not apply to other web
sites that may be accessible through alwaysBEthere’s
web sites. Our sites may contain links to other
sites operated by third parties, including but
not limited to third-party sites that may display
alwaysBEthere’s trademarks. We encourage
you to read the privacy policies of those other
sites to learn how they collect and use information
about you.
(a) What information does alwaysBEthere collect
and how is the information used?
While visiting our web sites, we may ask that
you provide personal information (name, email
address, postal address, etc.). For example, we
may request certain personal information when
you set up an account online, purchase products,
participate in a sweepstakes, promotion or survey,
contact alwaysBEthere with a question or concern,
apply for employment with alwaysBEthere, or participate
in other activities. If you are placing an order
on an alwaysBEthere web site, you may be required
to provide billing or shipping information (credit
card number, shipping address, etc.). When submitting
personal information on an online form, we will
identify which fields are required in order to
fulfill your request. Additionally, our web servers
automatically collect click-stream information
such as the address or URL of the web site that
you came from before visiting our site, which
pages you visit on our site, which browser you
used to view our site and any search terms you
may have entered in a search engine to find our
site.
We use the information you provide in order to:
fulfill requests for products, services or information;
provide customer services; administer sweepstakes
or promotions; offer new products and services;
measure and improve the effectiveness of our web
sites, our marketing endeavors or our services
and offers; tailor our on-line offerings to your
preferences; administer surveys; send marketing
communications; or other business purposes.
(b) Does alwaysBEthere use cookies or other technologies
to collect information?
Certain alwaysBEthere web sites utilize cookies.
Cookies are small data files that a web site may
send to your browser and which may then be stored
on your hard drive. Some of our web sites use
cookies to simulate a continuous connection—cookies
let us “remember” information about
your preferences and session, and allow you to
move within areas of our web sites without reintroducing
yourself. No personally identifiable information
is stored in these cookies.
Our web sites may also use other technologies
to track which pages visitors view on our web
sites. This non-identifiable click-stream data
helps us understand how visitors use our web sites.
(c) Does alwaysBEthere share the information I’ve
provided?
alwaysBEthere may need to share personal information
with third parties in certain circumstances. For
example, we may release personal information to
third parties to perform services on our behalf
such as: sending marketing communications for
alwaysBEthere, conducting research or surveys,
or sending regular mail or email on behalf of
alwaysBEthere.
Any information you provide to us may be combined
or shared between current or future alwaysBEthere
entities and subsidiaries.
From time to time, we may be required to provide
personal information in response to a valid court
order, subpoena, government investigation, or
as otherwise required by law. We also reserve
the right to report to law enforcement agencies
any activities that we, in good faith, believe
to be unlawful. We may release certain personal
information when we believe that such release
is reasonably necessary to protect the rights,
property, and safety of others and ourselves.
We may also release personal information in the
event of a corporate sale, merger, reorganization,
dissolution or similar event.
(d) How does alwaysBEthere secure my personal
information?
We have security measures in place to protect
against the loss, misuse, unauthorized access
and alteration of the information under our control.
Because credit card security is a high priority,
we have taken steps to ensure that payment information
is processed confidentially, accurately and securely.
alwaysBEthere web sites use encryption technology,
such as SSL (Secure Sockets Layer), to protect
your credit card information during processing.
SSL encrypts ordering information such as your
name, address, and credit card number.
Although we cannot guarantee against any loss,
misuse, unauthorized disclosure, alteration or
destruction of data, we take reasonable precautions
to prevent such unfortunate occurrences. alwaysBEthere
cannot ensure or warrant the security of any information
you transmit to us by email and you do so at your
own risk.
(e) Will this privacy policy change?
Because our web sites and businesses will continue
to implement new technologies and improve the
services and features we provide, this Privacy
Policy is subject to change. If there are changes
or additions to this Privacy Policy, we will post
those changes here or in other formats we deem
acceptable, so that you will always know what
information we collect and how we use it. If we
change our information practices or this Privacy
Policy in such a way that your personal information
may be used or shared in a different manner, we
will give you the opportunity to opt-out of having
your information used or shared in that new manner.
