What information does KaseIT collect from you
In order to better provide you with numerous products, KaseIT collects two
types of information about its visitors: Personally Identifiable Information
and Non-Personally Identifiable Information. Our primary goal in collecting
information from you is to provide you with a smooth, efficient, and
customized experience while using our site.
Personally Identifiable Information
This refers to information that lets us know the specifics of who you are.
Personal information is requested when you order a product, applying for
credit (through PayPal), fill out surveys, and send us feedback. For
example, this information might include your name, billing address, shipping
address, telephone number, e-mail address, credit card or other payment
information, and product details. With this information, KaseIT can fill
your orders and better provide you with personalized services. If you
visit PayPal available through a link on our site or the buy-now buttons,
they will independently collect, use and share your personal information in
accordance with their own privacy policies. If you have questions about
their information practices, please read their privacy policies. In many
cases, you can find a link to their privacy policies on the page offering
the Partners' services.
Non-Personally Identifiable Information
This refers to information that does not by itself identify a specific
individual. We gather certain information about you based upon where you
shop on our site in several ways. This information is compiled and analyzed
on both a personal and an aggregated basis. For example, this information
may include the Web site's Uniform Resource Locator ("URL") that you just
came from, which URL you next go to, what browser you are using, and your
Internet Protocol ("IP") address. A URL is the global address of documents
and other resources on the World Wide Web. An IP address is an identifier
for a computer or device on a Transmission Control Protocol/Internet
Protocol ("TCP/IP") network, such as the World Wide Web. Networks like the
Web use the TCP/IP protocol to route information based on the IP address of
the destination. In other words, an IP address is a number that is
automatically assigned to your computer whenever you are surfing the web,
allowing web servers to locate and identify your computer. Computers require
IP addresses in order for users to communicate on the Internet, browse and
shop.

Where do we collect information from you and how do we use it?
Our primary goal in collecting personal information is to provide KaseIT
visitors with a superior customized online experience. We use the customer
contact information to fill orders, contact purchasers to inform them of
their order status, to send promotional information, to enhance the
operation of our site and administer our systems.
Demographic data also may be collected at our site from third party
advertising servers or content servers, who provide us with the zip code and
area code associated with a visitor's server, along with pages viewed on our
site. We review the actions of the KaseIT visitors on an aggregate basis to
determine customers' preferences. KaseIT also does research on our visitors'
demographics, interests, and pages viewed based on the information provided
to us during ordering, a promotion, from our server log files, from
contests, drawings or surveys. We will use this data to tailor the visitor's
experience at our site, to improve our marketing and promotional efforts, to
statistically analyze site use, to improve our product offerings, and to
customize our site's content, layout, and services. We receive reports from
third party ad servers and content servers that tell us how many ads were
presented and clicked upon or what content was served.
We may also share your personally identifiable information with third
parties who provide services to us, our customers and web site visitors.
Those third parties include authorized contractors, temporary employees and
consultants and other companies working with us (collectively, "agents")
where we believe it to be appropriate (in our sole discretion), we will ask
our agents not to disclose or use your personal information for purposes
other than to provide services to you or KaseIT.
We gather information in the following ways:
Shopping
We collect IP addresses for the purposes of system administration, to gather
broad demographic information, to enable ads to be served on our site, to
report Non-Personally Identifiable Information to our advertisers, and to
monitor the level of activity on our site. We collect information from
visitors to our site regarding the URLs they came from, domain types (e.g.,
.com or .org), their IP addresses, the date and time of their visit or
order, the number of visits and orders, the number of visits per browsing
session, the server type, the operating system and browser type used to come
to the site, the country, state and telephone area code where their servers
are located, the pages and page titles of our site that visitors viewed
during their visit, whether the visitor's computer is enabled for Java or
cookies, browser language, applications and plug-ins, and any search terms
entered on our site.
Ordering
When you order from us, we collect personally identifiable information from
you. If you order one of our products or services, we will collect and
maintain your name, e-mail address, billing address, shipping address,
telephone number, product selections, credit card or other payment
information, order number, referring URL, IP address, page you bought from
and a password. We collect this, and other information, as disclosed in this
Policy, in order to fill your order, to communicate with you about your
order and to send you promotional materials. Before confirming your order,
you will have the opportunity to review the product order form and make
changes and additions to the information it contained and these changes will
be automatically kept for future use.
Online Surveys and Polling
In order to improve our services to you, we ask some of our customers to
voluntarily complete surveys, which may be collected by an independent third
party. Individual survey answers are confidential, although Non-Personally
Identifiable Information is collected and disclosed to third parties. If you
do not wish to participate in a survey, simply decline to participate when
asked.
Newsletters & Promotional E-mails
We offer free newsletters and promotional e-mails as a service to our
customers. We will send you newsletters and e-mails periodically listing
current specials and deals. To stop receiving our newsletter, send an e-mail
to us at
Unsubscribe@Kaseit.com.
Contact Information and Third Party Data
If you contact KaseIT or our customer service representatives by e-mail or
letter, we may keep a record of your correspondence or comments. If you
report a problem with our site, we may collect such information in a file
specific to you. If you contact us through our feedback area, we may ask for
your name, e-mail address and order information in order to send you a
reply. If other users or third parties send us correspondence about your
activities or purchases on our site, we may keep the information in a file
specific to you.
Customer Service
We reserve the right to use a third party to help us provide customer
service. In order to help you most effectively, we provide them with your
order information.
Warranty Information
Our warranty programs may be administered by third party warranty companies.
When you purchase a warranty, we may pass along your name, address,
telephone number, e-mail address, warranty purchased and information about
the product purchased to the warranty company.
Advertising
We display advertisements on our site. By knowing a little about you, KaseIT
will be able to deliver more relevant advertisements and content to you in
the form of targeted banners and promotions. For example, advertisers give
us an advertisement and tell us the type of audience they want to reach
(e.g., buyers of Palm Pilots, IPaq and Jornada). KaseIT takes the
advertisement and includes it in a KaseIT e-mail to prior customers meeting
that criterion. We may also have third-party advertising servers display ads
linked to certain search terms that you have entered, or to certain pages
that you are viewing. In this process, advertisers never have access to
individual account information. Additionally, KaseIT may share aggregated
data with advertisers, but only after asking for your explicit permission.
We also track customers' traffic patterns throughout their online session,
including which pages, information and advertisements a customer views while
using the site and what items they place in their basket or purchase. We use
your IP address to diagnose problems with our servers, software, to
administer our site and to gather demographic information.
Cookies
At this time we do not use cookies on our site; other websites that you may
use to complete your transaction may very well use cookies. Please refer to
their privacy statement for more information on how they may use cookies to
complete your transaction.

- Who
is collecting your information?
Ad Servers and Content Servers: We may use third party ad servers or content
servers to serve ads or other information both on and off our site. Those
third parties may use "action tags" throughout the site to count the number
of visitors who click on a banner ad or other information and to track the
number of customers who continue on to make a purchase. They may also place
their own "cookie" on your computer to help those ads to run. We do not
provide them with any of your Personally Identifiable Information. For more
information about the information they collect, please see the section "Use
of Cookies" below.
Financing Services; we use PayPal to provide credit card services. Those
lenders collect personally identifiable information to provide their
financing services. To see the privacy policy for PayPal,
click here.
Links and Banner Ads to Third-Party Sites: Please be aware that our site may
contain links to other sites on the Internet that are owned and operated by
third parties. The information practices of those websites linking from or
to our site are not covered by this Policy. These other sites may send their
own cookies to users, collect data, or solicit personal information.
Additionally, other companies or ad servers, which place advertising on our
site, may collect information about you through the use of cookies when you
view or click on their advertising. We cannot control this collection of
information. You should contact advertisers directly if you have any
questions about their use of the information that they collect.

With whom do we share your information?
Fulfillment: The information collected by KaseIT is used for processing
orders, keeping you informed about your order status, for statistical
purposes, for improving our site and its performance, to serve ads, and to
notify you of products or special offers that may be of interest to you. We
will disclose your Personally Identifiable Information to third parties to
charge your credit card, fill your order, deliver your order, provide
customer service, provide you with credit and deliver promotional e-mails to
you from KaseIT. For example, we must release your credit card information
to the card-issuing bank to confirm payment; and release your address and
telephone information to the delivery service to deliver products that you
ordered.
Other Parties: We do not sell, trade, or rent your Personally Identifiable
Information to others without your consent. We may provide Non-Personally
Identifiable Information about our customers' sales, traffic patterns, and
related site information to third parties, but these statistics do not
include any Personally Identifiable Information. We may release account
information when we believe that such release is reasonably necessary to
enforce or apply our Terms and Conditions or to protect the rights,
property, and safety of KaseIT, our users, or others. If customers do not
pay us for products ordered, we may submit their account information to a
third party collection agency.
Data Analysis Agents: The information collected by or for KaseIT. may be
provided to an outside company for the purpose of analysis. That analysis is
to help us to improve our site and product selection, and to notify you of
special offers that may be of interest to you. That data analysis agent may
not share any Personally Identifiable Information with others, or use it for
any other purpose than to help KaseIT.
Compliance with Service of Process or Law Enforcement: Occasionally KaseIT
may be asked by law enforcement or judicial authorities to provide
Personally Identifiable Information to the appropriate governmental
authorities. We will disclose Personally Identifiable Information upon
receipt of a court order, subpoena, or to cooperate with a law enforcement
investigation, without prior notice to you. KaseIT fully cooperates with law
enforcement agencies in identifying those who use our services for illegal
activities. We reserve the right to report to law enforcement agencies any
activities that we in good faith believe to be unlawful.

How can you update or correct your Personally Identifiable Information?
We believe you should have the ability to access and edit the personal
information that you have provided to us. During the online ordering process
you can review, change, or delete the information that you have submitted.
You may change any of your personal information in your account online at
any time. We encourage you to promptly update your information if it
changes. You may ask to have the information on your account deleted or
removed; however, because we keep track of past purchases, you cannot delete
information associated with past purchases. Also, as a security measure we
"back up" the data stored on our systems, and such prior information cannot
be completely removed from our databases. As a result, you should not expect
that all of your Personally Identifiable Information will be completely
removed from our backed-up databases. If you have questions, you may also
email us at:
Compliance@Kaseit.com

What are your choices regarding collection, use, and distribution of your
information?
Email: We may from time to time send you e-mail or other communications
regarding current promotions, specials and new additions to the KaseIT site.
You may "opt-out," or unsubscribe from our newsletters by following the
unsubscribe instructions in any e-mail you receive from us, or by sending an
e-mail to:Unsubscribe@kaseit.com
after doing so, KaseIT users will not receive future communications or
mailings unless they open a new account or enter a contest.
Ad-servers and other Content Servers: You may also set your browser so that
it will not accept "cookies" to prevent assignment from the ad server of a
unique identifier; however, you may not be unable to shop on our site if you
do so.

What security precautions are in place to
protect against the loss, misuse, or alteration of your information?
In order to most efficiently serve you, credit card transactions and order
fulfillment are handled by established third party banking, processing
agents and distribution institutions. They receive the information needed to
verify and authorize your credit card or other payment information and to
process and ship your order. For more information, you may contact us at:
accounting@Kaseit.com.

KaseIT and
third-party use of "cookies" and "action tags."
KaseIT Cookies: When you use our site we will store cookies on your computer
in order to facilitate and customize your use of our site. A cookie is a
small data text file, which a Web site stores on your computer's hard drive
(if your Web browser permits) that can later be retrieved to identify you to
KaseIT... Our cookies store randomly assigned user identification numbers,
the country where you are located, and your first name to welcome you back
to our site. The cookies make your use of the site easier, allow you to
retrieve an earlier shopping cart, make the site run more smoothly and help
us to maintain a secure site. You may be unable to shop on our site without
your browser set to accept cookies.
Our third-party ad servers will occasionally use outside agents, whose
computers will serve ads on our site in the same manner and under the same
conditions as above. In addition, other ad serving companies or advertisers
may place banner ads on our site in the same manner as above, but we do not
disclose to them any Personally Identifiable Information.
E-mail Distributor's Use of Action Tags: Our third-party e-mail distributor
may use action tags. They may, for example, keep track of when a promotional
e-mail is opened and provide KaseIT with ongoing aggregated reports of how
many customers have responded.
