At Bar Ninja, we are committed to protecting your privacy. Although we collect standard data about our customers - just as other Web sites, retail stores, and catalog companies do - we will never sell or trade your personal information.
You can visit the Bar Ninja Web site without disclosing your identity or any personal information about yourself. Information is collected from you (with your permission) whenever you:
- Purchase a product
- Correspond with us
- Become a subscriber to our Bar Ninja job connection listserv [future]
- Join our mailing list
We ask for and collect information in several ways:
- When you make a purchase from us, we ask you for your name, e-mail address, mailing address, phone number, credit card number and expiration date so that we may complete your order.
- We may also ask for optional information to enable us to provide you with a more personalized experience. When this happens, we will let you know that this information is optional. You can decide whether or not you want to provide that information, and whether you want to receive additional information or third party correspondence.
- We automatically track certain information about you as you use our site. This information includes what type of browser you are using. It may include the URL that you just came from and the next URL you go to, regardless of whether these URLs are on our Web site or not. It also includes your IP address. Bar Ninja uses this information to identify broad demographic trends that may be used to provide information tailored to your interests, to manage security and access, and better the functionality of our Web site. We monitor customer usage of our site and traffic patterns to help us improve the user experience by refining and improving the design and layout of the Bar Ninja site.
- If you send Bar Ninja personal correspondence, such as e-mails, letters or facsimiles, we may keep a record of that correspondence. We also periodically ask users for feedback that we use to improve our products and services with new features. If you respond to these requests, we may keep a record of your response.
- Bar Ninja's privacy policy does not apply to links within our Web site that take you to a third party Web site including but not limited to trade shows, vendors, partners and Web sites we deem to be of general interest to our visitors. When you leave our site those third parties might collect information about you. Bar Ninja is not responsible for the practice or content of such Web sites and this privacy policy does not cover the practices of these sites. You should consult the privacy policy of the Web site of the third party.
The information you provide and we collect allows us to understand our customers better. Bar Ninja does not sell, trade, or rent your personal information to others. When demographic and profile data is shared with Bar Ninja partners, it remains aggregated, and is never broken out individually.
- We may use the information we collect to keep you updated about Bar Ninja products and services and notify you from time to time about changes to the Web site, new services and products, and special offers we think you will find valuable.
- We use the personal information you provide us to process and fulfill your orders and to notify you of your order status.
- If you enter a contest or promotion sponsored by Bar Ninja, we use the personal information you provide to administer the contest and notify winners. We maintain all information relating to such contests and promotions.
- We may use the IP addresses we collect to report to law enforcement agencies of any possible fraudulent activity performed on our site (such as submission of stolen credit card information or misuse of any part of our Web site).
- We will disclose information where we believe disclosure is required by law or to comply with any legal process upon Bar Ninja or our Web site. We may also disclose your personal information if we believe it is necessary to protect the property or personal safety of our users, Bar Ninja or the public.
When you make a purchase (course registration or merchandise order), we use a secure link between your browser and our Web site to encrypt and protect the information. Our internal "firewall" technology shields our database from unauthorized access by outside parties. Since we do not rent, trade, or sell your personal information, it never leaves our database without your permission.
Bar Ninja and our deployment partners have implemented both electronic and physical safeguards to prevent unauthorized access to your information. In addition, financial information, including credit card numbers and credit card expiration dates, is only transferred between your Web browser and our partner's web server using the Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) and is encrypted during these transfers.
At this time, we only use cookies only while a visitor to our Web site is using our shopping cart system. The purpose of our cookies is to remember the contents of your shopping cart while you are browsing our Web site.
By using Bar Ninja's Web site, you agree that we may gather and use the information you provide to us. Any changes we may make to our privacy policies will be described on this page so that you can remain informed about the data we collect, how we use it, and how we keep your personal information private. To request that we remove your name from our distribution lists, contact our webmaster.
