Personal Information
We will not keep personal identification information from you unless you have clearly specified that you would like to receive promotional offers, etc. In this case, Empire Labs, Inc, and any service providers acting on our behalf, may use your personal identification information for activities explained in this policy, for internal and marketing purposes, or when a mailing list is made available to carefully screened companies whose products or services may interest Empire Labs customers.
We will always explain its use when we ask for personal identification information, either at the time we ask for the information or in this policy. If you do not want this information to be collected or used by us for these purposes, you can simply opt out at any time. This may prevent your participation in activities for which personal information is needed, such as contests.
With respect to transactions in this website...
We will use the personal identification information that you supply us (such as name, billing address, shipping address, email address, telephone number, credit card number and expiration date) to provide the products and services that you have ordered or requested, to process and ship orders, to send order and shipping confirmations, and to provide customer service. This information will NOT be used to contact you about sales and special offers, unless you have opted to receive these types of promotional communications from us.
There are several ways in which you can tell us whether or not you want to receive promotional communications from us. When you place an order through this website, you will have an opportunity to make or change your selections in this regard. You also will have an opportunity to change these selections by clicking on an "unsubscribe" hyperlink contained in promotional emails we send you.
All transactions are performed using the highest standards of SSL encryption, protecting all your personal information.
Collection and Use of Information by Children
Because Empire Labs websites are intended for use by adults, we do not sell or ship any items ordered directly to anyone who we know to be under the age of 18, nor do we collect any personal identification information through our websites from anyone who we know to be under the age of 18. If you are under the age of 18, you are not allowed to view this website and should not submit any personal identification information to us.
Sharing of Information Related to Transactions
We and our service providers engage third parties to perform services in connection with Empire Lbas websites. Examples of these services include payment processing and authorization, fraud protection and credit risk reduction, product customization, order fulfillment and shipping, marketing and promotional material distribution, Web site operation and evaluation, data analysis and, where applicable, data cleansing. We and our service providers provide personal identification information to these third parties, but we authorize them to use this information only in connection with the services they perform.
We or our service providers may release personal identification information if we believe in good faith that: the law or legal process requires it, we have received a valid administrative request from a law enforcement agency, or such release is necessary to protect anyone's rights, property or safety.
To make sure that this site stays safe and fun, we make the following promises...
In almost all activities, the information we collect is non-personal (such as first name, age, city and state). If you enter a contest, send us a question or send an electronic postcard, we will also ask for an e-mail address. If you submit stories, artwork, comments or anything else to us which is posted on our site, you will be identified on our site only by first name and your city and state. If you send us an e-mail with a question or comment, or enter one of our contests, we will write back using your e-mail address, but we will not keep the address or use it again. No one will be excluded from our site for not giving us personal information. When we do ask for personal information (like an e-mail address), we will only keep it until that particular activity is complete. We will not share this information with a third party except as otherwise provided in this policy. Your use of this site is conditioned on your having accepted these terms. You should check back to this policy frequently, since it is subject to change from time to time, and your continued use of the site is conditioned upon your acceptance of any modifications hereto.
If you have any comments or questions, we're happy to hear them. Send us an e-mail at questions@empirelabs.com. You may also contact us at PO Box 3062, Portland OR 97208.
