What information we collect. We collect personal information such as your contact information (name, e-mail address), billing/shipping information (credit card number, shipping address), or your personal preferences (likes and dislikes relating to the products we may sell). When submitting personal information on an online form, we will identify which fields are required in order to fulfill your request. Additionally, our Web server automatically collects click-stream information such as the address (or “URL”) of the Website that you came from before visiting our site, which pages you visit on our site, which browser you used to view our site and any search terms you have entered on our site.

When we collect information. While shopping or taking advantage of services available at Home Security Store, Inc.’s Websites, we may ask that you provide certain information about yourself.

Cookies

Our Websites use cookies to simulate a continuous connection — cookies let us "remember" information about your preferences and allow you to move within our Websites without reintroducing yourself. A "cookie" is a small data file that a Website may send to your browser and which may then be stored on your system. We use cookies to track which pages on our sites our visitors view and which Web browsers our visitors use. We also use "action tags" to assist in delivering the cookie. These action tags allow us to compile statistics and other data about our customers on an aggregate basis, by embedding a random identifying number on each user's browser. Then we track where that number shows up on our site. We share aggregated data (information that does not identify you) with third parties.

DOES HOME SECURITY STORE, INC. SHARE THE INFORMATION I’VE PROVIDED?

Home Security Store, Inc. may need to share personal information with third parties in limited circumstances. For example, we may release personal information to third parties to perform services on our behalf such as; fulfilling our customer’s orders, sending Home Security Store, Inc. marketing communications, delivering packages, scheduling and performing installation, sending regular mail and e-mail, or processing credit card payments.

From time to time, we may be required to provide personal information in response to a valid court order, subpoena, government investigation, or as otherwise required by law. We also reserve the right to report to law enforcement agencies any activities that we, in good faith, believe to be unlawful. We may release certain personal information when we believe that such release is reasonably necessary to protect the rights, property, and safety of others and ourselves. We may also release personal information in the event of a corporate sale, merger, reorganization, dissolution or similar event.
