| What
information does GFS collect from our users and
how do we collect it?
GFS only
contacts individuals who specifically request
that we do so or in the event that they have
signed up to receive our free newsletters or
have purchased one of our products. GFS collects
personally identifying information from our
users during online registration and online
purchasing. Generally, this information includes
name and e-mail address for registration to
receive our free newsletters and name, postal
address, and credit card information when
purchasing our products. All of this information
is provided to us by you.
How do we use
this information?
This
information is used for internal marketing
purposes only. GFS does not sell, exchange, or
release your personal information (name, e-mail
address, mailing address, credit data, etc.)
Your information is not shared with any other
third party or company outside of billing and
shipping purposes.
What are
cookies/clear GIFs and how do we use them?
Cookies:
Like many other commercial sites, our Site
utilizes standard technologies called
"cookies" and clear GIFs to collect
information about how our Site is used. A cookie
is a small data text file, which a website
stores on your computer's hard drive (if your
web browser permits) that can later be retrieved
to identify you to us. Cookies were designed to
help a website recognize a user's browser as a
previous visitor and thus save and remember any
preferences that may have been set while the
user was browsing the site. A cookie cannot be
read by a website other than the one that set
the cookie. A cookie cannot pass on a computer
virus or capture any of the Personally
Identifiable Information that resides on your
computer.
Clear GIFs: At times, we work with
third-party service partners that employ clear
GIFs (also known as pixel tags, single pixel
GIFs, web beacons or action tags) for our
benefit to help us measure advertising
effectiveness. Clear GIFs are tiny graphics with
a unique identifier, similar in function to
cookies, and are used to track the online
movements of our users. The main difference
between the two is that clear GIFs are invisible
on the page and are much smaller, about the size
of the period at the end of this sentence. Clear
GIFs are not tied to your Personally
Identifiable Information and only track the
visitor traffic and behavior to and on our Site.
Clear GIFs can "work with" existing
cookies on a computer if they are both from the
same website or advertising company. That means,
for example, that if a person visited "www.companyX.com",
which uses an advertising company's clear GIF,
the website would match the clear GIFs
identifier and the advertising company's cookie
ID number, to show the past online behavior for
that computer. This collected information can be
shared with the advertising company. We do, at
times, provide such information to our
third-party advertising service partners, but
that information can only be used by our partner
for our benefit and never includes personally
identifiable information.
How do we store
your information?
Your
information is stored at the list server that
delivers GFS newsletters. Your information can
only be accessed by those who help manage those
lists in order to deliver e-mail to those who
would like to receive GFS's newsletters.
All of the newsletters that are sent to you by GFS
include an unsubscribe link in them. You can
remove yourself at any time from our newsletters
by clicking on the unsubscribe link.
Disclaimer
This policy may
be changed at any time at GFS's discretion. If
we should update this policy, we will post the
updates to this page on our Website. This policy
was revised October 29, 2008.
