Privacy Policy
Introduction
Constant Wave (“we” or “us”) values its visitors’ privacy. This privacy policy is
effective October 10, 2009; it summarizes what information we might collect from a
registered user or other visitor (”you”), and what we will and will not do with
it.
Please note that this privacy policy does not govern the collection and use of
information by companies that Constant Wave does not control, nor by
individuals not employed or managed by Constant Wave. If you visit a web site
that we mention or link to, be sure to review its privacy policy before
providing the site with information.
What we do with your personally identifiable information
It is always up to you whether to disclose personally identifiable information
to us, although if you elect not to do so, we reserve the right not to register
you as a user or provide you with any products or services. “Personally
identifiable information” means information that can be used to identify you as
an individual, such as, for example:
- your name, company, email address, phone number, and shipping
address
- your Constant Wave user ID and password
- credit card information
- any account-preference information you provide us
- your computer’s domain name and IP address, indicating where your computer is located on the Internet
- session data for your login session, so that our computer can ‘talk’ to yours
while you are logged in
If you do provide personally identifiable information to us, either directly or
through a reseller or other business partner, we will:
- not sell or rent it to a third party without your permission — although unless
you notify us, we may use your contact information to provide you with
information we believe you need to know or may find useful, such as (for
example) news about our services and products and modifications to the Terms of
Service;
- take commercially reasonable precautions to protect the information from loss,
misuse and unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration and destruction;
- not use or disclose the information except:
- as necessary to provide services or products you have ordered, such as (for
example) by providing it to a carrier to deliver products you have ordered;
- in other ways described in this privacy policy or to which you have otherwise
consented;
- in the aggregate with other information in such a way so that your identity
cannot reasonably be determined (for example, statistical compilations);
- as required by law, for example, in response to a subpoena or search warrant;
- to outside auditors who have agreed to keep the information confidential;
- as necessary to enforce the Terms of Service;
- as necessary to protect the rights, safety, or property of Constant Wave, its
users, or others; this may include (for example) exchanging information with
other organizations for fraud protection and/or risk reduction.
Other information we collect
We may collect other information that cannot be readily used to identify you,
such as (for example) the domain name and IP address of your computer. We may
use this information, individually or in the aggregate, for technical
administration of our web site; research and development; customer- and
account administration; and to help us focus our marketing efforts more
precisely.
External data storage sites
We may store your data on servers provided by third party hosting vendors with
whom we have contracted.
Your privacy responsibilities
To help protect your privacy, be sure:
- not to share your user ID or password with anyone else;
- to log off the Constant Wave Web site when you are finished;
- to take customary precautions to guard against “malware” (viruses, Trojan
horses, bots, etc.), for example by installing and updating suitable anti-virus
software.
Notice to European Union users
Constant Wave’s operations are located primarily in the United States. If you
provide information to us, the information will be transferred out of the
European Union (EU) to the United States. By providing personal information to
us, you are consenting to its storage and use as described herein.
Information collected from children
You must be at least 13 years old to use Constant Wave’s web site and
services. Constant Wave does not knowingly collect information from children
under 13.
Changes to this privacy policy
We reserve the right to change this privacy policy as we deem necessary or
appropriate because of legal compliance requirements or changes in our business
practices. If you have provided us with an email address, we will endeavor to
notify you, by email to that address, of any material change to how we will use
personally identifiable information.

If you have questions or comments about Constant Wave’s
privacy policy, or wish to notify us that you no longer want to be contacted
about our products and services, send email to
concierge@constantwave.com,
