This notice describes our privacy policy. By visiting TheCustomEdge.net, you are accepting the policies described here.
The information we learn from customers helps us personalize and continually improve your shopping experience at TheCustomEdge.net. Here are the types of information we gather:
Information You Give Us: We receive and store information you enter on our website or give us in any other way. We use the information that you provide for such purposes as responding to your requests, customizing future shopping experiences, improving our store, and communicating with you.
Automatic Information: We receive and store certain other types of information whenever you interact with us. For example, like many websites, we use "cookies," and we obtain certain types of information when your web browser accesses TheCustomEdge.net or advertisements and other content served by or on behalf of TheCustomEdge.net on other websites.
E-mail Communications: To help us make e-mails more useful and interesting, we often receive a confirmation when you open e-mails from TheCustomEdge.net, if your computer supports such capabilities. If you do not want to receive e-mail or other mail from us, please adjust your newsletter preferences.
Cookies: Cookies are alphanumeric identifiers that we transfer to your computer's hard drive through your web browser to enable our systems to recognize your browser and to provide features such as One-page Checkout and storage of items in your Shopping Cart between visits. The Help portion of the toolbar on most browsers will tell you how to prevent your browser from accepting new cookies, how to have the browser notify you when you receive a new cookie, or how to disable cookies altogether. However, because cookies allow you to take advantage of some of TheCustomEdge.net's essential features, we recommend that you leave them turned on. For instance, if you block or otherwise reject our cookies, you will not be able to add items to your Shopping Cart, proceed to Checkout, or use any TheCustomEdge.net products and services that require you to Sign in.
Information Sharing: Information about our customers is an important part of our business, but we are not in the business of selling it to others. We share customer information only as described below and with subsidiaries of TheCustomEdge.net that are either subject to this Privacy Notice or follow practices at least as protective as those described here.
Third-Party Service Providers: We employ other companies and individuals to perform functions on our behalf. Examples include delivering packages, sending postal mail and e-mail, removing repetitive information from customer lists, analyzing data, providing marketing assistance, providing search results and links, and processing credit card payments. They have access to personal information needed to perform their functions, but may not use it for other purposes.
Promotional Offers: Sometimes we send offers to selected groups of customers on behalf of other businesses. When we do this, we do not give that business your name and address. If you do not want to receive such offers, please adjust your Newsletter preferences.
Protection of TheCustomEdge.net and Others: We release account and other personal information when we believe release is appropriate to comply with the law; enforce our Terms of Use and other agreements; or protect the rights, property, or safety of TheCustomEdge.net, our users, or others. This includes exchanging information with other companies and organizations for fraud protection and credit risk reduction. This does not include selling, renting, sharing, or otherwise disclosing personally identifiable information from customers for commercial purposes in violation of the commitments set forth in this Privacy Notice.
Information Security: We work to protect the security of your information during transmission by using Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) software, which encrypts information you input. We reveal only the last four digits of your credit card numbers when confirming an order. Of course, we transmit the entire credit card number to the appropriate credit card company during order processing.
Third-Party Advertisers and Links to Other Websites: Our site may include third-party advertising and links to other websites. We do not provide any personally identifiable customer information to these advertisers or third-party websites. These third-party websites and advertisers, or Internet advertising companies working on their behalf, sometimes use technology to send (or "serve") the advertisements that appear on our website directly to your browser. They automatically receive your IP address when this happens. They may also use cookies, JavaScript, web beacons (also known as action tags or single-pixel gifs), and other technologies to measure the effectiveness of their ads and to personalize advertising content. We do not have access to or control over cookies or other features that they may use, and the information practices of these advertisers and third-party websites are not covered by this Privacy Notice. Please contact them directly for more information about their privacy practices.
Opt-out Choices: As discussed above, you can always choose not to provide information, even though it might be needed to make a purchase or to take advantage of other TheCustomEdge.net features.
Conditions of Use, Notices, and Revisions: If you choose to visit TheCustomEdge.net, your visit and any dispute over privacy is subject to this Notice and our Terms of Use, including limitations on damages, resolution of disputes, and application of the law of the State of Michigan. If you have any concern about privacy at TheCustomEdge.net, please contact us and we will try to resolve it. Our business changes constantly, and our Privacy Notice and Terms and Conditions will change also. We may e-mail periodic reminders of our notices and conditions, unless you have instructed us not to, but you should check our Web site frequently to see recent changes.
