Privacy Policy Introduction:
This privacy policy is designed to inform users of the batteryBob website (the “Site”) about how batteryBob, Inc. (“batteryBob”, “we” or “us”) gathers and uses personal information submitted to batteryBob through the Site. batteryBob will take reasonable steps to protect user privacy consistent with the guidelines set forth in this policy and with applicable U.S. laws. In this policy, “user” or “you” means any person viewing any page of the Site or submitting any personal information to batteryBob in connection with using the Site. By using the Site, you are indicating your consent to this Privacy Policy.
IF YOU DO NOT AGREE WITH THIS PRIVACY POLICY, YOU SHOULD NOT USE THE SITE.
What Information Do We Collect?
Personal Information: batteryBob may collect personal information from users who send in inquries and/or place orders on the Site. batteryBob will only collect the personal information you choose to disclose to us that will permit payment and shipment processing. The personal information we collect includes your name, billing address, shipping address, email address, only the credit card type and the last four digits of the card number (collectively, the “Personal Information”). Our website is protected by the most Up-to-Date and stringent data transmission security (data encoding) and privacy techniques of Internet transactions. Our website is also constantly and continually tested by multiple web security validation vendors, tools and techniques.
Aggregate Information: We may use generally-used web tracking technologies, such as cookies, in order to collect non-personally identifiable information, such as IP host address, pages viewed, search queries, impressions and other data, and may aggregate such information in a manner which does not identify any individual ("Aggregate Information").
How Do We Use the Information We Collect?
Personal Information: We will use Personal Information submitted to us in order to deliver the products you order from us. batteryBob may send email marketing materials and updates to you.
Aggregated Data: batteryBob uses Aggregate Information only in an aggregate form that does not identify the individual user, and only for us to understand the performance of the Site. For example, we may develop Aggregate Information on Web site and content usage, keeping count of return visitors to the Site and assessing which pages of the Site are most popular. This allows us to customize the Site to determine which features visitors like best to help us improve our content and site, personalize your user experience, and measure overall site effectiveness.
Legal Exception: Notwithstanding the above, batteryBob may use Personal Information and other information collected through the Site to the extent required by law or if in batteryBob’s reasonable discretion use is necessary to protect batteryBob’s legal rights or to protect third parties.
What Information Do We Disclose to Third Parties?
Personal Information: batteryBob never has, does not and never will sell or rent its mailing list, and will not disclose your Personal Information to any third parties except when neccessary to do so in order to ship your products to you through our so-called "Drop-Ship" system where the products you order from us are actually shipped to you directly from one of our contracted manufacturer suppliers. This arrangement is designed to save you time and shipping expenses, so the vendor does not have to ship us your products first, so that we can then ship the products to you, thereby eliminating a double shipping charge and delay. However, batteryBob reserves the right to disclose any information batteryBob collects in connection with the Site, without further notice to you (a) to any successor to batteryBob’s business as a result of any merger, acquisition or similar transaction; and (b) to any law enforcement or regulatory authority, to the extent required by law or if in batteryBob’s reasonable discretion disclosure is necessary to protect batteryBob’s legal rights or to protect third parties.
Anonymous, Aggregated Information:
We may disclose Aggregate Information to third parties such as potential business partners and funding sources, in order to describe our business and operations.
How Can You Opt Out of Use and Disclosure of Your Information? If you would like your Personal Information removed from our mailing list or database, please contact us at privacy@batteryBob.com. In the event of any such removal, batteryBob will still retain records of any completed sales transaction for the ability to go-back, review and handle inquries about prior transactions and enable reordering of the same items later.
