| At PrairieOutdoors.com, we are
very aware of the privacy concerns of our customers and visitors to our
site.
We do not collect personal information unless you provide it
voluntarily. If you elect to provide personal information, in no case will
we sell, trade, license, or transmit for any reason that information
outside of PrairieOutdoors.com, our authorized agents,except with your
express authorization. PrairieOutdoors.com may provide aggregate
statistics about our customers, sales, usage patterns, and related site
information to our advertisiers, but these statistics will include no
personally identifying information.
Collecting and using personal information
By "personal information" we mean information that is unique to
an individual, such as a name, address, or telephone number. From time to
time, we may request personal information from you at our site in order to
give you access to requested products or services. Different
elements of this information are used by PrairieOutdoors.com to validate
your registration and to facilitate your interaction with our site.
When you visit our site, we also collect certain information that does
not identify you personally, but provides us with "usage data,"
such as the number of visitors we receive, what pages are visited most
often, and what browser and domain name you are using. This data helps us
to continuously improve the usefulness of the services we provide.
E-mail
Should you send us e-mail, we may share your communications with our
employees or agents most capable of addressing your questions and
concerns. We will retain your communication until we have done our best to
provide you with a complete and satisfactory response and then we will
either discard it or, in some cases, archive it. |

Cookies
Like most commercial Websites, we may also use what is known as
"cookie" technology. A cookie is a nonexecutable element of data
that a Website can send to your browser when you link to that site.
PrairieOutdoors.com will assign a cookie upon logging in to some of our
services, which will serve to track your progress for that session. When
you end your session, either by logging out or closing your browser, the
cookie is destroyed--it will not be saved on your computer. The cookie
does not extract personal information about you. Most browsers provide a
simple procedure that will enable you to control receipt of cookies by
notifying you when a Website is about to deposit one. PrairieOutdoors.com
does not engage in the practice known as profiling, nor does it engage the
services of any companies that do.
Links to other sites
From time to time this site may provide links to other sites, not owned or
controlled by PrairieOutdoors.com, that we think might be of interest to
you. We cannot, however, be responsible for the content of, or privacy
practices used by, other site owners.
Data security
When you purchase products from the GearShop, we use a secure server
implementing the secure sockets layer (SSL) protocol to interact with you
when you provide personal information during the purchase and payment
processes. This state of the art technology encrypts your information so
that a third party cannot read the information while in transit.
Furthermore, all the customer data we collect is stored off-line and
protected against unauthorized access.
Changes to this statement
This Privacy Statement is effective as of November 20, 2000. We may change
this Statement from time to time. This Statement is not intended to and
does not create any contractual or other legal rights in or on behalf of
any party. |
