used to identify or contact an individual. This includes a first and last name,
a physical address, an email address, a student id number, or a phone number. If
you are visiting our site to browse merchandise or find information about our
business or our products, you do not need to provide any personal information.
If you decide to make a purchase, however, we do collect this information so
that we can provide you with the product or service you requested and so that we
can contact you with information regarding your order. </font></span></p>

to you. We will only transfer the information to the extent necessary to provide
the requested information, service, or product to you. We will not sell or trade
your information to unrelated third parties. When you submit an order you will
