Privacy Policy
At MainPowerConnect.com we are committed to protecting your privacy. We use the information we collect about you to
process orders and to ensure that we provide you with the best possible service to suit your needs. This Privacy statement
outlines the information MainPowerConnect.com will collect and how we will use that information. This Statement will inform
you what to do if you do not want your personal information to be shared or divulged when you visit a MainPowerConnect.com
website or respond to our advertising. MainPowerConnect.com reserves the right to change this policy at any time by posting
a new privacy policy at this location, and your continued use of our website indicates your acceptance of such changed terms.
What We Collect and Where Do We Collect It?
All users of the site are free to explore most of the site without providing any personal information to MainPowerConnect.com
In other areas of the site you may be asked to provide the following information:
- If you place an order with your credit card, we gather contact and address information; credit card type, number and
expiration date; and an e-mail address.
- If you request a catalog we will add you to our mailing list for paper catalogs and other special offers.
- If you opt-in to our e-mail newsletter list, your e-mail address will be added to our list for periodic e-mail newsletters
and special offers.
As with most modern web sites, we monitor where users of the site travel throughout the site so that we can develop a better
understanding of the areas of greatest interest.
How Does MainPowerConnect.com Use This Information?
A. Navigational
Our web site automatically gathers information about the areas visited by our users. In order to do this, MainPowerConnect.com
logs your IP addresses (in other words, the location of your computer on the Internet) for system administration, troubleshooting
and to examine overall traffic trends. (For example, IP addresses help us determine the number of people coming from various
gateways, such as Google, Yahoo, MSN, and others.) We do not use any of this navigational data on an individual basis. Nor do
we share any of this data with outside companies. We do use navigational information in the collective to understand how our
users travel around our web site as a group to use the services and see the products that we offer. We collect that information
so that MainPowerConnect.com can constantly improve our web site. We may also share this statistical information with our
partners or other outside companies, but in doing so; we do not disclose individual names or personal navigational information.
B. Personal
When you place an order with MainPowerConnect.com we will ask you for some information, such as name, address, phone number,
and email. When you go to buy an item, additional information, such as your preferred means of payment and your shipping
address, will be required. The information gathered is used, by means of placing a "cookie" on your hard drive; to speed up
the data-entry process should you revisit our site later and want to make another purchase. Please note, however, that sensitive
credit card information is not included in the information stored.
We might, from time to time, use the information provided to send you alerts about upcoming events and promotions and to create
general customer profiles. You can -- at any time -- "opt-out" of receiving such communication by sending us an email to
customerservice@MainPowerConnect.com.
Do We Sell Trade or Disclose Your Personal Information?
MainPowerConnect.com does not disclose, share, sell or trade any personal or individual information that it collects to third
parties other than in the course of completing a transaction that you have requested or in response to an investigation involving
legal matters. While we may provide information regarding site usage to third parties, such as traffic reports and sale
information, this information will not include any of your personal information.
We will NEVER disclose your password to anyone. Our password reminder service ensures that forgotten passwords are sent only
to the e-mail address entered into our system during the setup of the account.
Cookies
"Cookies" are pieces of data your browser stores on your computer's hard drive. MainPowerConnect.com uses a cookie to customize
portions of our site to your preferences. For example, MainPowerConnect.com uses a cookie to identify you as the account holder,
and to make sure that only you have access to (for example) your own personal information. This way, you only have to answer
those questions once and not every time you make a purchase on the site. The cookie, by itself, does not tell us (or anyone else)
who you are, your email address, or anything else personal. You provide that information when you register with
MainPowerConnect.com and only MainPowerConnect.com has access to that information and MainPowerConnect.com will not share
that information with others except in the course of completing the transaction.
Links
We keep track of links that appear on our site that you may use to exit our site, but we do not keep track of where you go on
the World Wide Web. The Web sites you visit may have their own privacy policies or no policy at all. We encourage you to review
the privacy policies of ALL web sites before providing them with any of your personal information. MainPowerConnect.com is not
responsible for the privacy policies of those sites nor for any cookies those sites may deposit on your hard drive.
About Children
MainPowerConnect.com does not target children nor does MainPowerConnect.com expect to attract children to its site. Because we
are not a children's site, we do not provide most of the privacy measures that are so important for their protection on the
Internet. Because of this, we ask that minors do not submit information to MainPowerConnect.com without the express consent
and participation of a parent or guardian.
Your Ability to Confirm Information
We provide you with the opportunity to review, update or correct your information that we have on file. Just as you want to
make sure that information MainPowerConnect.com has about you is accurate, we want to keep only the most up-to-date information
about your account. Therefore, whenever you want to review your information, or believe that your contact or billing information
needs updating, you can contact MainPowerConnect.com at customerservice@MainPowerConnect.com or by calling 888-MAIN POWER
(888-624-6769).
Removing Your Information from Our Records
If for some reason, you want us to remove your credit card and contact information from our database, we will -- after all of
your transactions have been completed. All you have to do is send us an email at customerservice@MainPowerConnect.com or by
calling 888-MAIN POWER (888-624-6769). Such information, however, is never completely removed from our database archives because
we routinely back up our servers for disaster recovery and tax-record purposes.
Disclosures Required Under Law
MainPowerConnect.com will disclose personal information or information collected on about your use of the site in response to
valid requests by legal authorities or in order to comply with the legal process.
