Use of Cookies

When you visit the Web Site, we place a “cookie” on the hard drive of your computer to track your visit to the Web Site. A cookie is a small data file that is transferred to your hard drive through your web browser that can only be read by the web site that placed the cookie on your hard drive. The cookie allows DB Embroidery Solutions Inc to track your visit to the Web Site and the items that you place in your shopping cart. For a detailed description of what a “cookie” is, please enter the search term “cookie” on the search program provided on the http://whatis.techtarget.com web site.

Most web browsers are set to accept cookies. However, on most web browsers you may change this setting to have your web browser either: (1) notify you prior to a web site placing a cookie on your hard drive so that you can decide whether or not to accept the cookie; or (2) automatically prevent the placing of a cookie on your hard drive. It should be noted that if cookies are not accepted, you will not be able to access a number of web pages. If you choose not to accept the cookies placed on your hard drive by DB Embroidery Solutions Inc , you will not be able to access a number of web pages found on the Web Site.

Security

DB Embroidery Solutions Inc endeavors to provide a secure environment in which you can provide and obtain access to information about you. DB Embroidery Solutions Inc has security measures in place to prevent the modification, misuse, loss or misappropriation of information about you, including the provision of a secure environment in which the information is stored, providing you with an option to use encryption technology when transmitting orders to DB Embroidery Solutions Inc and controlling access to such information by parties external to DB Embroidery Solutions Inc.

Another security measure used by DB Embroidery Solutions Inc is that we do not ever store your entire credit card number on any single computer system. In fact, DB Embroidery Solutions Inc only temporarily stores part of your credit card information online on our secure server. Thereafter, DB Embroidery Solutions Inc only keeps paper records of your credit card information. These procedures ensure that your complete credit card number is not stored online, and that such information is never publicly accessible. You can entirely avoid providing your credit card information online by phoning DB Embroidery Solutions Inc and providing your credit card information to an individual who will enter it into our paper records. In addition, we offer you the option to pay for products using cheque or money order so that your credit card information is never provided to us.

Viewing, Updating or Deleting Your Information

You may, at any time, view or update your personal profile information by logging in and going to the “My Account” page. You may have your personal information completely removed by contacting DB Embroidery Solutions Inc directly, as described on the “Contact Us” page.

In some cases, DB Embroidery Solutions Inc may not be able to provide you with all the information that it has collected about you. This would occur if provision of the information could lead to disclosure of another individual’s personal information, where laws or regulations prevent disclosure, or where it would simply be too costly to provide the information such as a request to provide you with a detailed history of every web page on the Web Site visited by you. If DB Embroidery Solutions Inc decides not to disclose some or all of the information collected about you, DB Embroidery Solutions Inc will advise you of the reason.

Please note that even if you delete or change your information stored by us, information about you may continue to be stored by us indefinitely and may be used and disclosed by us for the purposes set out under the headings “Third Party Vendors”, “Banking Institutions”, “Collection Agencies” and “Disclosure for Legal Purposes” under the “Use and Disclosure of Information” section above. Also, you should note that information may still be stored in places outside of our control such as in our agents’, contractors’, or third party suppliers’ databases (including those being used for archival purposes). In the event that you are having difficulties in reviewing or amending your information, please contact us directly as described on the “Contact Us” page.

You may also withdraw your consent to the terms and conditions contained in this privacy policy by providing notice in writing to that effect, delivered to the address as specified in the “Contact Us” page. You further acknowledge and agree that you will not, after withdrawing your consent to the provisions of this Privacy Policy, acquire a product or service offered by DB Embroidery Solutions Inc or use or access the Web Site or information, material, products or services provided therein. You may however continue to use products acquired prior to the cancellation. If you acquire any product or service offered by DB Embroidery Solutions Inc or use the Web Site after withdrawing your consent, such action signifies your consent and agreement to the terms and conditions contained in this Privacy Policy, and to the collection, use and disclosure described herein of your personal information by DB Embroidery Solutions Inc.
