Orders
If you place an order with us, we will request certain personally identifiable
information from you on our order form. You must provide contact information
(such as name, email, and shipping address) and financial information (such as
credit card number, expiration date). We will use this information for billing
purposes and to fill your orders. If we should encounter any difficulty
processing your order, we will use this information to contact you. During
checkout, your information will be protected by 128 bit SSL encryption as it is
passed back and forth between your browser and our site.
Surveys or Contests
From time-to-time we may provide you the opportunity to participate in contests
or surveys on our site. If you participate, we will request certain personally
identifiable information from you. Participation in these surveys or contests is
completely voluntary and you therefore have a choice whether or not to disclose
this information. The requested information typically includes contact
information (such as name and shipping address), and demographic information
(such as zip code).
We use this information to notify contest winners and award prizes, to monitor
site traffic, or to personalize the site (in the case of anonymous information
collected in surveys).
Uses of Information
G2 is strongly committed to protecting your privacy and the security of your
personal information. G2 will never sell, trade, rent, give away, or use your
private information for any other reason then to contact you and/or ship your
orders. We maintain customer records for business and tax purposes, but these
are not used outside of G2’s operation.
Access to Your Personal Information
If your personal information changes, or if you no longer desire our service,
you may update or delete that information by making the changes on your account
page or by emailing us through our contact us page.
