Order
We request information from the user on our order form when making a
purchase. Here, is where a user must provide their contact information,
like name and shipping address, and shipping information, like credit
card number and expiration date. This information is used for billing
purposes and to fill the customer's order. If we have difficulty
processing an order, this contact information is used to get in touch
with the customer.
Cookies
A cookie is a piece of data stored on the user's hard drive containing
information about the user. We use both session and persistent cookies.
Usage of a cookie from our site is in no way linked to any personally
identifiable information. Cookies enable us to track and target the
interests of our users in the aggregate by analyzing popular areas and
products to enhance future experiences on our site.
Usage Tracking
JDBands.com's database tracks the traffic throughout our site. This
information is used to compile overall statistics and is not recorded at
an individual level. This includes IP (internet protocol) addresses,
browser type, ISP (internet service provider), referring/exit pages,
platform type, date/time stamp, and #of clicks to analyze trends,
administer the site, track user's movement in the aggregate. The
statistics help us decide which products and services best serve our
members and guests.
Aggregate Information
JDBands.com uses aggregate information from demographic surveys, traffic
patterns and IP addresses to customize our site. Aggregate information
is occasionally shared with partners of JDBands.com to plan advertising
or promotions. We do not share any personally identifiable information.
Sharing
JDBands.com gives you access to third party partners to provide you with
certain services that are detailed below. JDBands.com will provide that
third party with your transaction information and then that third party
will collect additional information if needed to provide you with the
requested service. These third parties are not allowed to use personally
identifiable information except for the purpose of providing these
services.
We use an outside shipping company to ship orders, and a credit card
processing company to bill users for goods and services. These companies
do not retain, share, store or use personally identifiable information
for any secondary purposes.
Links
This website contains links to other sites. Please be aware that we are
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 website that collects personally
identifiable information. This privacy policy applies solely to
information collected by JDBands.com.
Catalog, Newsletters, Etc.
If a user wishes to subscribe to our catalog, newsletter, etc., we ask
for contact information such as name, street address and email address
to provide these communications. Out of respect for our users privacy we
provide a way to opt-out of these communications. Please see the choice
and opt-out section below.
On rare occasions it is necessary to send out a strictly service
related announcement. For instance, if our service is temporarily
suspended for maintenance we might send you an email. Generally, users
may not opt-out of these communications, though you can deactivate your
account. However, these communications are not promotional in nature.
Surveys & Sweepstakes
From time to time, our site requests information from users via surveys
or sweepstakes. Participation in these surveys or sweepstakes is
completely voluntary and the user therefore has a choice whether or not
to disclose this information. Information requested may include contact
information (such as name, shipping address and email address), and
demographic information (such as zip code, age level). Contact
information will be used to notify the winners and award prizes. Survey
information will be used for purposes of monitoring or improving the use
and satisfaction of this site.
Tell-A-Friend
If a user elects to use our referral service for informing a friend
about an item, we ask them for the friend's name and email address.
JDBands.com will automatically send the friend a one-time email inviting
them to visit the site. We do store the friend's email and they have an
option to opt-out in the communication.
Special request page
Our customers can use the special request page to enquire about products
that they cannot find on the website, such as, for example, special
orders. Personal information is gathered during this process.
Security
JDBands.com takes every precaution to protect our users' information.
When users submit sensitive information via our website, 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),
that information is encrypted and is protected with the best encryption
software in the industry - Secure Socket Layers (SSL). While on a
secure page, such as our order form, a lock icon appears on the bottom
of your Web browser. When you are not on a secure page, no lock icon
will appear.
While we use SSL encryption to protect sensitive information (like
your credit card information) online, we also do everything in our power
to protect user information off-line. All of our users' information, not
just the sensitive information mentioned above, is restricted in our
offices. Only the Store Manger has access to customer information.
Finally, the servers that we store personally identifiable information
on are kept in a secure environment under restricted access.
If you have any questions about the security at our website you may
contact us at 1-800-923-9952.
Special Offers
Established members will occasionally receive information on products,
services, special offers and a newsletter. Out of respect for the
privacy of our users, we present the option to not receive these types
of communications.
If we decided to change our privacy policy, we will post those
changes to this privacy statement, the homepage, and other places we
deem appropriate so our users are always aware of what information we
collect, how we use it, and under what circumstances, if any, we
disclose it. We will use information in accordance with the privacy
policy under which the information was collected.
If, however, we are going to use your personally identifiable
information in a manner different from that stated at the time of
collection we will notify you via email. You will have a choice as to
whether or not we use your information in this different manner.
However, if you have opted out of all communication with the site, or
deleted/deactivated your account, then you will not be contacted, nor
will your personal information be used in this new manner. In addition,
if we make any material changes in our privacy practices that do not
affect user information already stored in our database, we will post a
prominent notice on our web site notifying users of the change. In some
cases where we post a notice we will also email users, who have opted to
receive communications from us, notifying them of the changes in our
privacy practices.
