The information we learn from customers helps us personalize and continually improve your experience with our Services. Here are the types of information we gather:

Information You Give Us:
We collect, maintain and use information you give us as necessary to enhance and provide quality service and products. You provide us with information when you search, buy, participate in a contest or questionnaire, or communicate with customer service. For example, you provide information when you search for a product; make an order; communicate with us by phone, e-mail, or otherwise; complete a questionnaire or a contest entry form; or apply for a job with us. As a result of those actions, you might supply us with such information as your name, phone number and credit card information.

We receive and store certain types of information whenever you interact with us. Examples of the information we collect and analyze include the Internet protocol (IP) address used to connect your computer to the Internet; login; e-mail address; password; computer and connection information such as browser type and version, operating system, and platform; purchase history; the full Uniform Resource Locators (URL) clickstream to, through, and from our Web site; and products you viewed or searched for and phone number used to call our 800 number.

For reasons such as improving personalization of our service (for example, providing better product recommendations or special offers that we think will interest you), we might receive information about you from other sources and add it to our account information. We also sometimes receive updated delivery and address information from our shippers or other sources so that we can correct our records and deliver your next purchase or communication more easily.

2. What about Cookies?

Cookies are alphanumeric identifiers that we transfer to your computer's hard drive through your Web browser to enable our systems to recognize your browser and to provide features. We use cookies to store visitors’ preferences, record session information, such as items that consumers add to their shopping cart, record user-specific information on what pages users access or visit, and record past activity on a site in order to provide better service when visitors return to our sites.

The "help" portion of the toolbar on most browsers will tell you how to prevent your browser from accepting new cookies, how to have the browser notify you when you receive a new cookie, or how to disable cookies altogether.

3. Does ZED USA Share the Information It Receives?

Information about our customers is an important part of our business, and we are not in the business of selling it to others. ZED USA customers must opt to share their information. If you have opted to share your information, we only share information with ZED USA business partners who also respect privacy concerns.

We may release account and other personal information when we believe release is appropriate to comply with law; enforce or apply our Terms and Conditions and other agreements; or protect the rights, property, or safety of ZED USA, our users, or others. This includes exchanging information with other companies and organizations for fraud protection and credit risk reduction.

We may employ other companies and individuals to perform functions on our behalf. Examples include fulfilling orders, sending e-mail, removing repetitive information from customer lists, analyzing data, providing marketing assistance, processing credit card payments, and providing customer service. They have access to personal information needed to perform their functions, but may not use it for other purposes.

In the event that ZED USA is acquired or acquires another company, customer information will be one of the transferred assets.

In accordance with the Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act and ZED USA’s policy, ZED USA does not knowingly collect or share personal information from children under the age of 13. We believe that parents should supervise their children’s on-line activities and use a parental control tool to prevent children from disclosing personal information without parental consent.

After verification of the information, we will delete the information from our records.
