Our
Commitment To Your Privacy
Mad Dog Surf Shop respects your privacy. We are particularly
sensitive to privacy issues on the Internet and therefore
we provide this Privacy Policy so you know about our
online information practices and understand how we
treat the information we receive about you from the
Internet.
The
Information We Collect
In general, you can browse our Web site without telling
us who you are or revealing any personal information
about yourself. We are, however, able to determine
your IP address. We use your IP address to help diagnose
problems with our server, to administer our Web site,
to measure the use of our Web site and to improve
the content of our Web site. In short we use your
IP to gather aggregate demographic information. There
are a few places where we give you an opportunity
to provide us your personal information. This refers
to information that lets us know the specifics of
who you are. When you engage in certain activities
on our web site, such as ordering a product, entering
a contest or sweepstakes, filling out a survey, sending
us feedback, requesting owners and parts manuals or
registering your product online, we may ask you to
provide certain information. If you choose to share
any personal information with us, you will see that
the amount and type of personal information we request
depend on how you use our Web site. It is completely
optional for you to engage in these activities. If
you elect to engage in these activities, however,
we may ask that you provide us personal information,
such as your first and last name, mailing address
(including zip code), email address, telephone and
facsimile numbers, and other personal identifying
information. When ordering products on our web site,
you may be asked to provide a credit card number.
Depending upon the activity, some of the information
we ask you to provide is identified as mandatory and
some as voluntary. If you do not provide the mandatory
data with respect to a particular activity, you will
not be able to engage in that activity.
The
Way We Use Information
We may use your personal information for particular
purposes such as processing your order or for marketing
research and other marketing purposes and for providing
you with the latest product and promotional information
and other information that might be useful to you.
We may use your personal information to deliver information
to you and to contact you regarding administrative
notices. We may share this information with Mad Dog
Surf Shop affiliates, dealers or other business partners
to support your customer relationship with the Mad
Dog Surf Shop. We must release your credit card information
to the card-issuing bank to confirm payment for products
purchased on our web site; release your address information
to the delivery service to deliver products that you
ordered; and provide order information to third parties
that help us provide customer service. We will not
give or sell this information to any other company
for its use in marketing or solicitation.
Your Choice on Collection
and Use of Your Information
We may, from time to time, send you mailings regarding
our products and services. We will send you these
mailings only if you indicated that you do not object
to these offers. If you do not wish to receive further
information from Mad Dog Surf Shop you can send
us an e-mail at info@surfmaddog.com and tell us
that you do not want to receive future communications.
You may ask to have the information on your account
deleted or removed, however, because we keep track
of past transactions, you cannot delete information
associated with past transactions on our web site.
In addition, it may be impossible to completely
delete your information without some residual information
because of backups.
We will encourage our service
partners to adopt and post privacy policies. However,
the use of your personal information by our service
partners is governed by the privacy policies of
those service partners, and is not subject to our
control. The Mad Dog Surf Shop Web site contains
links to other non-Mad Dog Surf Shop Web sites.
Mad Dog Surf Shop is not responsible for the privacy
practices or the content of such Web sites and you
should exercise your best judgement when sharing
personal information on these Web sites.
Our Commitment to Security
of Your Personal Information We
want you to have continuing trust in Mad Dog Surf
Shop and in our products and services and, so, we
have put in place reasonable physical, electronic
and managerial procedures to safeguard and secure
your personal information.
In order to most efficiently
serve you, credit card transactions and order fulfillment
are handled by established third party banking,
processing agents and distribution institutions.
They receive the information needed to verify and
authorize your credit card or other payment information
and to process and ship your order.
Unfortunately, no data transmission
over the Internet or any wireless network can be
guaranteed to be 100% secure. As a result, while
we strive to protect your personal information,
you acknowledge that: (a) there are security and
privacy limitations of the Internet which are beyond
our control; (b) the security, integrity and privacy
of any and all information and data exchanged between
you and us through our web site cannot be guaranteed;
and (c) any such information and data may be viewed
or tampered with in transit by a third party
By using this Web site you
are agreeing to the terms of the Mad Dog Surf Shop
Privacy. We reserve the right to modify our privacy
policy as business needs require. We will post such
changes on our Web site.
