We sometimes collect anonymous information from visits to our sites to help us provide better customer service. For example, we keep track of the domains from which people visit and we also measure visitor activity on our web sites, but we do so in ways that keep the information anonymous. This anonymous information is sometimes known as “clickstream data.” Gazelle or its analytic vendors may use this data to analyze trends and statistics and to help us provide better customer service.
Also, when we collect personal data from you in connection with a transaction we may extract some information about that transaction in an anonymous format and combine it with other anonymous information such as clickstream data. This anonymous information is used and analyzed only at an aggregate level to help us understand trends and patterns. None of this information is reviewed at an individual level. If you do not want your transaction details used in this manner, you can either disable your cookies or opt-out at the order or request page.
We collect the anonymous information we mentioned in the previous paragraphs through the use of various technologies, including one called "cookies". A cookie is an element of data that a Web site can send to your browser, which may then be stored on your system. Some pages use cookies, sent by Gazelle or its third party vendors, or other technologies to better serve you when you return to the site. You can set your browser to notify you before you receive a cookie, giving you the chance to decide whether to accept it. You can also set your browser to turn off cookies. If you do so, however, some areas of some sites may not function properly.
We also maintain and may regularly use registration information both for marketing as well as educational and informational services. Wherever we are likely to use your information in this manner, you will have the option of opting out, and as such we will not use your registration details for such purposes.
Some transactions and registration processes require you to enter your credit-card details, wherever these details are required, you will be notified, and all transactions after that point will be encrypted. We will store your credit card details, but only within a secure environment, that is not public facing, and as such will not be accessible by any network traffic.
