What Information do we collect?

When visiting our website, you provide us with two types of information: personal information you knowingly choose to disclose and website usage information collected by us as you interact with our website.

We collect personally identifiable information from you when you register on our site, place an order, subscribe to a newsletter, respond to a survey, or fill out a form.

When ordering or registering on our site, as appropriate, you may be asked to enter your name, email address, mailing address, phone number, or credit card information.

You may, of course, visit our site anonymously by not filling out any website forms.

In addition, when you visit the Gearin’ Up website, we collect your browser type, IP address, and possibly the Web page you came from. However, this data is not in any way permanently associated with your personally identifiable information.

What do we use your information for?

Any of the information we collect may be:

  • Used to improve the content of our website
  • Used to personalize the content and/or layout of our page for each individual visitor
  • Used to improve customer service
  • Used to process transactions
  • Used to administer a contest, promotion, survey or other site feature
  • Used by us to contact consumers for marketing purposes (NOTE: If at any time you would like to discontinue receiving future mailings, we include detailed instructions at the bottom of each mailing)
  • Disclosed when legally required to do so at the request of governmental authorities
  • Used to verify or enforce compliance with the policies governing our website and applicable laws or to protect against misuse or unauthorized use of our website, or protect our or others' rights, property, or safety
  • Given to a successor entity in connection with a corporate merger, consolidation, or other corporate change respecting the website

Do we disclose any information to outside parties?

Your personally identifiable information, whether public or private, will not be sold, exchanged, transferred, or given to any other company for any reason whatsoever, without your consent, other than for the express purposes listed above. This does not include trusted third parties who assist us in operating our website, conducting our business, or servicing you, so long as those parties agree to keep this information confidential. However, non-personally identifiable visitor information may be provided to other parties for marketing, advertising, or other uses.

How do we protect your information?

We implement a variety of security measures to maintain the safety of your personal information when you place an order or access your personal information.

We offer the use of a secure server. All supplied sensitive/credit information is transmitted via Secure Socket Layer (SSL) technology and encrypted so that it is only accessible by those authorized with special access rights to it, who are required to keep the information confidential.

Because email is not recognized as a secure form of communication, we request that you not send private information to us by email.

After a transaction, your private information (credit card, social security numbers, financial, etc.) will not be kept on file by Gearin’ Up for more than 60 days.

Do we use cookies?

Yes. We use cookies to:

  • Store visitors' preferences
  • Record session information (such as items that consumers add to their shopping cart)
  • Record past activity at the site in order to provide better service when visitors return to our site
  • Customize Web page content based on visitors' browser type or other information that the visitor sends
  • Compile aggregate data about site traffic and site interaction so that we can offer better site experiences and tools in the future

If you prefer, you can choose to have your computer warn you each time a cookie is being sent, or you can choose to turn off all cookies via your browser settings. Like many websites, if you turn your cookies off, some of our services may not function properly. However, you can still place orders by telephone.

Does this privacy policy apply to third party links?

Occasionally, we may include or offer third party products or services via links on our website. These third party sites have separate and independent privacy policies. We therefore have no responsibility or liability for the content and activities of these linked sites. Nonetheless, we seek to protect the integrity of our site and welcome any feedback about these sites.
