Our Privacy Policy is designed to assist you in understanding how we collect and
use the personal information you provide to us and to assist you in making informed
decisions when using our site and our products and services.
What Information Do We Collect?
When you visit our Web site you may provide us with two types of information: personal
information you knowingly choose to disclose that is collected on an individual
basis and Web site use information collected on an aggregate basis as you and others
browse our Web site.
- Personal Information You Choose to Provide
Registration Information.
will provide us information about yourself, your firm or company,
and your practices when you register to be a member of 101Bike.com, register for
certain services, or register for email newsletters and alerts. You may also provide
additional comments on how you see 101Bike.com servicing your needs and interests.
Email Information.
If you choose to correspond with us through email, we may
retain the content of your email messages together with your email address and our
responses.
- Web Site Use Information
Similar to other commercial Web sites, our Web site utilizes
a standard technology called "cookies" (see explanation below, "What
Are Cookies?") and Web server logs to collect information about how our Web
site is used. Information gathered through cookies and Web server logs may include
the date and time of visits, the pages viewed, time spent at our Web site, and the
Web sites visited just before and just after our Web site. We, our advertisers and
ad serving companies may also use small pieces of code called "web beacons"
or "clear gifs" to determine which advertisements and promotions users
have seen and how users responded to them.
How Do We Use the Information That You Provide to Us?
Broadly speaking, we use personal information for purposes of administering and
expanding our business activities, providing customer service and making available
other products and services to our customers and prospective customers. Occasionally,
we may also use the information we collect to notify you about important changes
to our Web site, new services and special offers we think you will find valuable.
You may notify us at any time if you do not wish to receive these offers by emailing
us at Edward@101Bike.com.
What Are Cookies?
A cookie is a very small text document, which often includes an anonymous unique
identifier. When you visit a Web site, that site's computer asks your computer
for permission to store this file in a part of your hard drive specifically designated
for cookies. Each Web site can send its own cookie to your browser if your browser's
preferences allow it, but (to protect your privacy) your browser only permits a
Web site to access the cookies it has already sent to you, not the cookies sent
to you by other sites.
How Do We Use Information We Collect from Cookies?
As you shop on our Web site, the site uses its cookies to differentiate you from
other shoppers so your shopping cart is only available to you. In some cases, we
also use cookies to prevent you from seeing unnecessary advertisements or requiring
you to log in more than is necessary for security. Cookies, in conjunction with
our Web server's log files, allow us to calculate the aggregate number of people
visiting our Web site and which parts of the site are most popular. This helps us
gather feedback in order to constantly improve our Web site and better serve our
customers. Cookies do not allow us to gather any personal information about you
and we do not generally store any personal information that you provided to us in
your cookies.
Sharing Information with Third Parties
We may enter into alliances, partnerships or other business arrangements with third
parties who may be given access to personal information including your name, address,
telephone number and email for the purpose of providing you information regarding
products and services that we think will be of interest to you. In connection with
alliances, partnerships or arrangements, we may also provide certain information
to third parties if we have determined that the information will be used in a responsible
manner by a responsible third party. For example, some of our partners operate stores
or provide services on our site, while others power offerings developed by us for
your use. We also use third parties to facilitate our business, including, but not
limited to, sending email and processing credit card payments. In connection with
these offerings and business operations, our partners and other third parties may
have access to your personal information for use in connection with business activities.
As we develop our business, we may buy or sell assets or business offerings. Customer,
email, and visitor information is generally one of the transferred business assets
in these types of transactions. We may also transfer such information in the course
of corporate divestitures, mergers, or any dissolution.
Notice of New Services and Changes
Occasionally, we may also use the information we collect to notify you about important
changes to our Web site, new services and special offers we think you will find
valuable. As our customer, you will be given the opportunity to notify us of your
desire not to receive these offers by sending us an email request at Edward@101Bike.com.
Do We Protect Your Information?
How Do We Secure Information Transmissions?
Email is not recognized as a secure medium of communication. For this reason, we
request that you do not send private information to us by email. Some of the information
you may enter on our Web site may be transmitted securely via Secure Sockets Layer
SSL, 256 bit encryption services. Pages utilizing this technology will have URLs
that start with HTTPS instead of HTTP. Please contact Edward@101Bike.com if you
have any questions or concerns.
How Can You Access and Correct Your Information?
You may request access to all your personally identifiable information that we collect
online and maintain in our database by emailing
Edward@101Bike.com.
Disclosures
We may disclosure your personal information if required to do so by law or subpoena
or if we believe that such action is necessary to (a) conform to the law or comply
with legal process served on us or Affiliated Parties; (b) protect and defend our
rights and property, the Site, the users of the Site, and/or our Affiliated Parties;
(c) act under circumstances to protect the safety of users of the Site, us, or third
parties.
What About Other Web Sites Linked to Our Web Site?
We are not responsible for the practices employed by Web sites linked to or from
our Web site nor the information or content contained therein. Often links to other
Web sites are provided solely as pointers to information on topics that may be useful
to the users of our Web site.
Please remember that when you use a link to go from our Web site to another Web
site, our Privacy Policy is no longer in effect. Your browsing and interaction on
any other Web site, including Web sites which have a link on our Web site, is subject
to that Web site's own rules and policies. Please read over those rules and
policies before proceeding.
