More Privacy Terms...
HL Technology, has created
this privacy statement in order to demonstrate our firm commitment to
privacy. The following discloses our information gathering and dissemination
practices for this website: hltechnology.com. Any changes or updates
to our privacy practices will be updated through our website.
Log Files
We use IP addresses, browser type, time of day, to analyze trends,
administer the site, track user's movement, and gather broad demographic
information for aggregate use. IP addresses are not linked to personally
identifiable information.
Registration
Our site's registration form requires users to give us contact information
(like their name and email address). The customer's contact information is
used to contact the visitor in the event of a problem when processing an
order. For example, problems with credit card verification, product
availability, etc. Users have a choice of receiving future mailings; during
the registration process.
Our site uses an order form for customers to request information,
products, and services. We collect visitor's contact information (like their
email address), and financial information (like their account or credit card
numbers). The customer's contact information is used to get in touch with
the visitor when necessary. i.e., in the event there is a problem processing
an order, corporate changes, or changes in privacy practices. Financial
information that is collected is used to bill the user for products and
services. The customer ID numbers are assigned to Web site visitors to
verify the user's identity and for use as account numbers in our record
system.
Links/3rd Parties
This site contains links to other sites. HL Technology Online Store
is not responsible for the privacy practices or the content of such Web
sites. We encourage our users to be aware when they leave our site and to
read the privacy statements of each and every web site that collects
personally identifiable information. This privacy statement applies solely
to information collected by this Web site.
HL Technology Online Store is the sole collector of information, and is
not shared with any 3rd parties. However, we do offer printable rebate forms
and warranty information. HL Technology Online Store is not responsible for
the privacy practices of those companies. Please review their respective
privacy statements. Our site does not use cookies.
Security
This website takes every precaution to protect our users’ information. When
users submit sensitive information via the 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 - SSL. While on a secure page, such as our order form, the
lock icon on the bottom of Web browsers such as Netscape Navigator and
Microsoft Internet Explorer becomes locked, as opposed to un-locked, or
open, when you are just ‘surfing’. To learn more about SSL, follow this link
http://www.rsasecurity.com/standards/ssl/basics.html.
While we use SSL encryption to protect sensitive 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 employees who need the information to
perform a specific job (for example, our billing clerk or a customer service
representative) are granted access to personally identifiable information.
Our employees must use password-protected screen-savers when they leave
their desk. When they return, they must re-enter their password to re-gain
access to your information. Furthermore, ALL employees are kept up-to-date
on our security and privacy practices. Every quarter, as well as any time
new policies are added, our employees are notified and/or reminded about the
importance we place on privacy, and what they can do to ensure our
customers’ information is protected. Finally, the servers that we store
personally identifiable information on are kept in a secure environment,
behind a locked cage.
If you have any questions about the security at our web site, please send
an e-mail to
