What Information Does Paris Texas Hardware Collect?

Paris Texas Hardware collects data that you voluntarily provide on the Site through purchase transactions, the use of our "Design Your Window" or similar features, when you register for an account, request a catalog or any form completions or that you otherwise provide through phone, e-mail, website-based, mail and fax interactions that you submit to us or provide to our sales associates through or in connection with the Site. Paris Texas Hardware Site may collect and store two types of information: "personal information" and "automatic information."

"Personal information" is personally identifiable information about you including, but not limited to, your name, company name, gender, billing address, shipping address, email address, telephone number, credit card information (however we do not store any such credit card information on the Site, we use the latest secure socket layering (SSL) technology which prevents disclosure of your information to third parties and follow PCI compliance), any personal preferences you choose to provide, transaction details such as style, material, size, price, discount, date, company name, an assigned password to protect your privacy, and, with respect to trade accounts, your company website, and tax exemption certificate, among other things.

"Automatic information" is information that we may collect automatically when you interact with this Site, such as your IP address, the type of computer you use, and the web browser you use. Automatic information also includes "cookies" and "web beacons." (View our Cookie Policy). A "cookie" is a small amount of data that is sent to your browser from a web server and stored on your computer's hard drive. Among other things, cookies provide a means for us to keep track of your online patterns and preferences. By understanding which areas of the Site you visit, cookies allow us to present information, products and services that are of personal interest. A cookie will not allow us to learn any personal information (such as your real name and address) that you have not otherwise disclosed. Most browsers are initially set up to accept cookies. You can change your browser so that it will not automatically accept cookies. However, if you do so, it is possible that some portions of the Site may not function as intended. "Web beacons", also known as clear GIFs or single-pixel GIFs, are small image files that we may place on web pages within this Site and within web-based email newsletters that we send. Working in conjunction with cookies, web beacons allow us to accurately count the number of unique users who have visited a specific web page and the number of times those web pages are displayed. We can also use web beacons to let us know how many people opened a web-based email newsletter.

We may associate automatic information with your personal information. In the event of such association, such automatic information will be considered personal information.

How Does Paris Texas Hardware Protect Your Information?

We have implemented appropriate organizational, technical, and administrative measures to protect Personal Data within our organization, including security controls to prevent unauthorized access to our systems. When you place an order on the Site, Secure Socket Layer Technology ("SSL") encryption technology is utilized to protect your personal information during data transport. While we take reasonable steps to secure your Personal Data from loss, misuse, interference and unauthorized access, modification and disclosure, you should be aware no security procedures or protocols are ever guaranteed to be 100 percent secure from intrusion or hacking, and there is therefore always some risk assumed by sharing Personal Data online. If you have reason to believe that your interaction with us is no longer secure (for example, if you feel that the security of your account has been compromised), please immediately notify us at sales@paristexashardware.com.

When you create an online account on the Site and become a registered user, you will be asked to provide an accurate email address and create a password. You are responsible for keeping this password confidential and are urged (i) not to share your password or account information with others, (ii) to use a secure web browser, and (iii) to change your password from time to time. If you wish to cancel a password, or if you become aware of any loss, theft, or unauthorized use of a password, please contact us as sales@paristexashardware.com.

Does Paris Texas Hardware Disclose Your Information to Others?

Except as described below, Paris Texas Hardware does not sell, share, rent or trade with third parties any personal information you provide to us through or in connection with the Site; however, we may share your personal information with our subsidiaries and/or affiliates.

We may disclose personal information about you to third party service providers that act on our behalf ("Service Providers") and who agree to maintain the confidentiality of such information in accordance with this Privacy Policy and use the information only in connection with the services they provide. These Service Providers may provide a variety of services to us including, without limitation, processing credit card payments, providing website hosting, consulting or other technical services related to the Site, assisting us in fulfilling your transactions and customer service inquiries, updating your customer profile information in the database, marketing and promotional material distribution, assisting in data collection, or fulfilling your request to unsubscribe from our emails, newsletters and/or other promotional materials. We do not authorize such Service Providers to make any other use of your information.

We may transfer or disclose personal information in the event that Paris Texas Hardware and/or its subsidiaries or affiliates engages in a business transition, such as a merger, acquisition by another company, the sale of a business unit or assets, or other "change of control" transaction. In such transactions, personal information generally is one of the transferred business assets and remains subject to the promises made in any pre-existing privacy policy.

At any time, you can choose to unsubscribe from receiving promotional emails by following the unsubscribe instructions at the bottom of the email you no longer wish to receive.
