For example, when you register with Rock-Lights.com, we will ask you to provide your name, e-mail address, physical address and telephone number. If you purchase a product, we will also ask you for financial information such as your credit card number and a shipping address. Registration with Rock-Lights.com is required to make a purchase.

What other kinds of customer information do we collect?

If you ask us to ship a purchase to somebody else, we will ask you for the name and address or e-mail address of the person to whom you are sending or recommending the product, as well as your name and contact information.

Our system also keeps track of which browser and Internet Provider (IP) you use to access our site. In addition, to help us understand the use of our site by our visitors and improve your shopping experience, we automatically collect information as to how you were directed to the site, how you navigate around it and what products you browse, as well as your purchasing activities.

How do we collect this information?

When you register with Rock-Lights.com, we compile the personal information you give us about yourself into an individual profile. We add other personal information about you to that profile as you give it to us. We also collect information about your purchases and other uses of our site as they are made.

We gather other information through the use of cookies..

How do we use cookies?

Cookies are pieces of text that allow a website to store on your own computer an identification code associated with you which can later be retrieved and associated with your visit to the site. Session cookies terminate shortly after you close your Internet browser. Persistent cookies are stored on your hard drive until they expire or are deleted. Both types of cookies enhance our ability to serve you by recalling information about you such as your password, shopping preferences and shopping cart. This saves you time on your next visit to our site and personalizes your shopping experience.

We understand that not everyone wants to permit the use of cookies. The Help portion of the toolbar on most browsers will tell you how to prevent your browser from accepting cookies and how to disable cookies, but we recommend that you leave cookies turned on so that you can take full advantage of the shopping features available on our site.

Do visitors need to provide personal information to use our site?

Personal information is not required to access or navigate around the site. However, you will be asked to register and provide personal information if you want to make a purchase. Personal information is also required to request information or assistance from us.

How do we protect customers' personal information?

All of your personal information is encrypted by 128 bit Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) software when it is transmitted to us via the web. We maintain the servers that store this information in a locked facility with restricted access. We also truncate your credit card number to the last four digits when we communicate with you about your order.

How do we use information about our customers?

We use your personal information to process your orders. This includes for example, contacting you to confirm your order, fulfilling the order and shipping it. We may also contact you if we want to communicate with you about your order.

Additionally, we will use your contact information to send you E-newsletters or other promotional notices, or to respond to requests for information or assistance from you.

How do we share customers' personal information with third parties?

In order to process your orders and requests, we make your name, address, and sometimes your e-mail address or telephone number available to other entities such as credit card companies and package delivery services (for example, American Express, Visa, UPS, and USPS). Similarly, if you order a product that is shipped directly from another company, or offered by Rock-Lights in conjunction with another company, we will share personal information about that order with the other company.

We may use third party agents, consultants and contractors to perform business functions on our behalf, including customer service, account servicing, customer research, marketing, provision of IT services and records maintenance. We give these entities access to our customers' personal information to perform these functions for us and do not authorize them to use that information for any other purpose.

It is possible that Rock-Lights.com or part of its business or one of its affiliates could merge with, acquire or be acquired by another business entity and your personal information could be among the assets transferred. If this occurs, you will be notified of the change by e-mail or notice on this site.

We reserve the right to share personal information about you with our affiliates in the course of our business operations. We also reserve the right to share personal information about you as required by law or in cooperation with legal authorities and to enforce the General Terms and Conditions governing use of this site or to protect the rights, property, or safety of Rock-Lights.com and its customers.

How do we share other customer information with third parties?

We may share non-personal non-individually identifiable (aggregate) information about our customers with the group of people with whom we share personal information, as well as with other third parties such as vendors, advertisers and marketing firms.
