Information Collection and Use
Navy Gear is the sole owner of the information collected on this site. We will not sell, share, or rent this
information to others in ways different from what is disclosed in this statement. Navy Gear collects information
from our users at several different points on our web site.
Information Requests
A user is required to give their contact information (such as name and email address). This information is used to
contact the user about the services on our site for which they have expressed interest.
Order
We request information from the user on our order form. Here a user must provide contact information (like name and
shipping address) and financial information (like credit card number, expiration date). This information is used for
billing purposes and to fill customer's orders. If we have trouble processing an order, this contact information is
used to get in touch with the user.
Cookies
A cookie is a piece of data stored on the user's hard drive containing information about the user. Usage of a cookie
is in no way linked to any personally identifiable information while on our site. Once the user closes their browser,
the cookie simply terminates. For instance, by setting a cookie on our site, the user would not have to log in a
password more than once, thereby saving time while on our site. If a user rejects the cookie, they may still use
our site. The only drawback to this is that the user will be limited in some areas of our site. Cookies can also
enable us to track and target the interests of our users to enhance the experience on our site.
Log Files
We use IP addresses to analyze trends, administer the site, track user's movement, and gather broad demographic
information for aggregate use. IP addresses are not linked to personally identifiable information.
Sharing
We do not share, sell or distribute your Personal Data with unrelated third parties, except under these limited
circumstances:-
Personal Data may occasionally be transferred to third parties who act for us for further processing in accordance
with the purposes for
which the data was originally collected or for purposes to which you have subsequently consented.
We may share or transfer the information in our databases to comply with a legal requirement, for the administration
of justice, to protect your vital interests, to protect the security or integrity of our databases or this Web Site,
to take precautions against legal liability, or in the event of a corporate sale, merger, reorganization, dissolution
or similar event.
Links
This web site contains links to other sites. Please be aware that Navy Gear is not responsible for the privacy practices of such other sites. We encourage our users to be aware when they leave our site and to read the privacy statements of each and every web site that collects personally identifiable information. This privacy statement applies solely to information collected by this Web site.
Security
This web site takes every precaution to protect our users' information. When users submit sensitive information via the web site, your information is protected both online and off-line. When our registration/order form asks users to enter sensitive information (such as credit card number and/or social security number), that information is encrypted and is protected with the best encryption software in the industry - SSL. While on a secure page, such as our order form, the lock icon on the bottom of Web browsers such as Netscape Navigator and Microsoft Internet Explorer becomes locked, as opposed to un-locked, or open, when you are just 'surfing'.
Special Offers
We send all new members a welcoming email. Established members will occasionally receive information on products, services, special deals, and a newsletter. Out of respect for the privacy of our users we present the option to not receive these types of communications.
Notification of Changes
If we decide to change our privacy policy, we will post those changes.
