Privacy Policy   Terms of Use

Privacy

Vorticy Inc. ("Vorticy") is committed to protecting the privacy of its customers. We have taken strong measures to ensure that the information we gather from you will be secure and confidential. This policy applies to the Vorticy websites only.

Your information: Why we need it. What do we do with it.
When you order something from Vorticy, we gather your name, email address, mailing address, phone number, credit card number and expiration date. This information allows us to fill your order and keep you updated on its progress.

If you register with us, we also store your user name and password for your future ease of sign-in. This means you won't have to re-enter your address and information each time you order from Vorticy. In registration, there is optional demographic information you can enter that we use to better serve our customers, by designing products that fit their lifestyles. You also have the option to receive promotions and new product announcements via email - but only if you want to. As described below, you may opt out of receiving such promotional emails at any time.

Occasionally we offer contests, surveys and other features on our Web site that ask you to provide your information. When you choose to respond to these requests, the information you enter may be used as designated above, or may be provided to third parties as necessary to meet prize fulfillment or other aspects of the contest or offer. Your participation in any survey, contest or other request is entirely voluntary.


For your protection
We make sure that every online transaction with our customers meets our high standards of privacy and security. We do this by using Google’s secure server that encrypts all of your confidential information before you send it. In addition, we take strong measures to protect all customer data against unauthorized access. Of course, there is no such thing as "perfect security" on the Internet and no data transmission can be guaranteed secure. Although we will take the steps set forth above to protect your personally identifiable information from loss, misuse, or alteration by third parties, you should be aware that there is always some risk involved in transmitting information over the Internet. As a result, while we strive to protect your personally identifiable information, Vorticy cannot and does not ensure or warrant the security of any information you transmit to us or via our Web site, and you do so at your own risk.

Sharing your personal information
Vorticy will not trade, sell or rent your personal information (such as name, address, phone number or company name) to third parties without your consent. We also protect your privacy by limiting employee access to and use of customer data. While we may provide statistics to outside companies about our customers, including sales and related site information, it will not include any personally identifying information. In addition, any communication with you for promotional purposes, will be made only by Vorticy and our marketing partners - and only if you have selected the option to receive such promotions. Vorticy or its designated agent will use your personal information only to fill your product order and for purposes of authentication, security and verification. We may also disclose personal information when we believe in good faith that the law requires it. Vorticy reserves the right to disclose users' personal information in special cases when we have reason to believe that disclosing the information is necessary to identify, contact or bring legal action against someone who may be violating our Terms of Use or may be causing injury to or interference with (either intentionally or unintentionally) Vorticy, its rights or property, or anyone else that could be harmed by such activities. In addition, in connection with any assignment, sale, joint venture, merger, or other transfer or disposition of some or all of the assets of Vorticy or its affiliated entities, to third party successors in interest, you acknowledge and agree that we can accordingly assign, sell, license or transfer any information, including personally identifiable information, that you have provided to us to such third parties.

External links
Our Web site may contain links to other websites. Vorticy does not control and is not responsible for the privacy practices or the content of such websites. As a general rule you should always look for and review a site's privacy policy before giving out any personal information.

A word about cookies
Cookies are small bits of information that are stored by your browser on your computer's hard drive. Vorticy cookies allow us to recognize a shopper who should be given a promotional discount. We can also recognize a returning shopper and make product suggestions, if you choose. We do not place any personal or confidential information in your cookies.

Changes to this policy
Privacy as it applies to the Internet is a dynamic, rapidly developing area. We may change this policy from time to time to address new issues and reflect changes in our Web site or applicable law. We will post those changes here at www.VorticySports.com (and such changes become effective upon posting). Please refer back to this policy regularly.

By accessing and using our Web site, you signify your agreement to and acceptance of our privacy policy. If you do not agree to this policy, please do not access or use our Web site. Your continued use of our Web site following the posting of changes to this privacy policy will mean that you accept those changes.
