Personal Information Collection DieHard EMS never holds you credit card information on file. We at DieHard EMS believe that this is the safest way to handle your information. If you wish us to keep such information, please send it to us with a signed letter stating such to DieHard EMS, LLC DieHard EMS, LLC 75 Karen Lane, Shenandoah Junction, WV 25442, West Virginia . You will still have to input this information every time you purchase something – so there is really no point in sending it to us… unless you REALLY, REALLY want us to have it. We may also collect and record non-personal information regarding the types of products ordered on the site (how popular a certain item is), or information on how many times each page is viewed (how popular a certain Web page is). We may track the page you visited before coming to our site and the page you visit when you leave (hopefully something constructive…the web is not just for porn anymore). And we obtain certain types of technical information when your Web browser accesses www.diehardems.com such as your Internet protocol (IP) address and MAC address, the domain name and host from which you access the Internet and computer and connection information such as browser type and version and operating system. This webpage is best viewed with ANYTHING other than Internet Explorer…. Okay, not really, we just don't like IE. We may utilize and possibly download software tools that measure and collect session information including download errors, visit length to certain pages, page response times and technical interaction information regarding scrolling, clicks and other methods used to browse the site's pages. Like many sites, we receive and store certain types of information automatically through the use of "cookies." Cookies are files that our web server places on your computer that enable us to track your experience on our site. You may set your browser to reject cookies, but this may limit your ability to take full advantage of some of the features offered on our site – but probably not. We hate cookies too. DieHard EMS MAY employ third parties to perform certain business functions on our behalf. These functions MAY include, but are not limited to, collecting and keeping on file, information that you provide to us such as: name, address, phone number, e-mail address and for orders, shipping and generic billing information (no credit card numbers are kept), and any information you may volunteer, such as survey information. None of these third parties may use any personal information collected for any purpose other than to carry out their business function on our behalf. The information we collect is used to serve you by making your online visits fun-ner (yes, you can use that word in “Scrabble”. We swear by it). We do so by answering your requests (in only the most professional way), modifying areas that need to be improved upon, and communicating with you for scene trends, and of course marketing purposes. We also use the information provided for shipping and generic billing purposes, we use non-personal information, technical data and information collected by third parties for internal business and marketing purposes, and to monitor site security. DieHard EMS does NOT share customer information!!! DieHard EMS may occasionally send e-mail offers to customers. If you would prefer us not to include you on these offers, please write to us at: DieHard EMS, LLC DieHard EMS, LLC 75 Karen Lane, Shenandoah Junction, WV 25442, West Virginia (or e-mail us at help@diehardems.com with your request. Please be sure to include your first name, last name, address, city, state, zip code, and phone number to ensure we can process your request. We will process your request promptly, but please note that you may receive additional contacts before your name removal takes effect. We regret any inconvenience this may cause. We may disclose personal and other collected information when required by law or when we deem it necessary to protect the rights or safety of site users, our employees or property - DO NOT test us on this one.... This includes exchanging information with third parties and organizations in connection with credit risk reduction and fraud protection. We may also transfer or disclose personal information in the case of the sale of all company assets or our purchase of another company – either way someone will be getting a LOT of money…. You are an important customer at DieHard EMS and your online ordering is highly valued. Your transaction takes place on the PayPal web servers which uses Verisign so you can trust that you are doing business with DieHard EMS. We protect the security of credit card and other sensitive information you provide online by using Secure Socket Layer (SSL) security software that encrypts such information. The security features are automatic. For example, once you've clicked the SUBMIT button on the Checkout page, your browser looks for a digital certificate to confirm that it is communicating with PayPal and DieHard EMS.com. Once a positive ID is made, your order continues. We use PayPal to enable the use of digital certificates. For your security, the verification process happens in the background every time you place an order on our site. Additionally, DieHard EMS server hosting employs industry standard firewall and anti-virus protection along with maintaining vendor security patches. We also utilize a 3rd party security scanning service to scan our web servers and web sites to assure we are up to industry standards in regard to patching and security configurations. Although DieHard EMS has implemented measures designed to secure personal information collected on our website from accidental loss and from unauthorized access, use, alteration or disclosure, we cannot guarantee that unauthorized third parties will never be able to defeat those measures or use your personal information for improper purposes. If you have any questions or concerns about security on the DieHard EMS site, please feel free to send an e-mail to: help@diehardems.com. If you wish to change or modify information previously provided, or something just isn't right, simply e-mail us at: help@diehardems.com and we'll do our best to make it right. Shipping: DieHard EMS currently uses the United States Postal Service as our primary means of shipping. This saves you money by letting us keep our prices competetive. You will be sent a tracking number via e-mail once your order is processed and a shipping label is created. We try to do this within 2 business days. If something you ordered is out of stock, and needs to be ordered, we will let you know within 48 to 72 hours. Shipments usually arrive about a week after the order is processed. This depends primarily on how busy the post office is. Refunds: It is the policy of DieHard EMS to issue full refunds (including shipping charges), or merchandise replacements when the situation is warranted. This is of course decided by DieHard EMS personnel. It is our desire to be as fair as possible. We understand issues come up from time to time. So if you have a concern about the quality our merchandise, please contact us at help@diehardems.com and let us know. Please be aware that if there is a question of quality, you may be asked/required to return the item(s) in question at your own expense. Requests for returns and/or replacements will be considered on a case by case basis. Do NOT return anything with the assumption that it will be blindly replaced or refunded. All refunds will be issued by check within 10 business days of refund approval - no exceptions. Links: We may provide links to third party web sites on the DieHard EMS site. These are sites that, AT THE TIME, we think are pretty cool and / or very informative. We are not responsible for the content or information collection practices of those pages. DieHard EMS cannot and will not be responsible for policies relating to privacy on any of such linked web sites. We strongly advise you to review the policies at any web site you visit to see what WONDERFUL bathroom reading they make. Notification of Changes: If we decide to change our privacy policy, we may post those changes to this privacy statement, and any other places we want to (I particularly like bathroom walls). We may or may not notify our customers via e-mail and/or by posting a notice. Please check this privacy policy frequently for changes and interesting tidbits that have absolutely nothing to do with anything you could possible care about….items like how Dr. Seuss was really the world's best rapper (J-Who?) or how quantum physics effects the way various brands of popcorn pop… Terms & Conditions: DieHard EMS reserves the right to accept or reject any and all orders, regardless of the manner in which the order is made. DieHard EMS reserves the right to update these Terms and Conditions at any time without notice to you.
