  • The circumstances under which we disclose personal information to third parties; and

We promise that we will take steps to use your personal information only in ways that are compatible with this Privacy Policy.

We therefore encourage you to refer to this policy on an ongoing basis so that you understand our current privacy policy.

INTENDED USE OF PERSONAL INFORMATION

A lot of our services do not require any form of registration, allowing you to visit our Site without telling us who you are. However, some services may require you to provide us with specific Personal Information. In these situations, if you choose to withhold any such information, it may not be possible for you to gain access to certain parts of the Site or for us to respond to a particular query or perform a certain service (such as process a purchase).

WHAT INFORMATION ARE YOU COLLECTING AND HOW ARE YOU COLLECTING IT?

Every computer connected to the Internet is given a domain name and a set of numbers that serve as that computer's "Internet Protocol" IP address. When a visitor requests a page from any Web site within the DL Network, our Web servers automatically recognize that visitor's domain name and IP address. The domain name and IP address reveal nothing personal about you other than the IP address from which you have accessed our site. We use this information to examine our traffic in aggregate, and to investigate misuse of the DL Network, its users, or to cooperate with law enforcement. We do not collect and evaluate this information for specific individuals.

That information may then be transferred within the United States or back out of the United States to other countries outside of your country of residence, depending on the type of information and how it is stored by us. These countries (including the United States) may not necessarily have data protection laws as comprehensive or protective as those in your country of residence, however, our collection, storage and use of your personal data will at all times continue to be governed by this Privacy Policy.

• Your California Privacy Rights

• Data Security
DL is committed to doing its best to maintain the security of information collected on our site.  While no data transmission over the Internet is 100% secure from intrusion, we have used and will continue to use commercially reasonable efforts to put in place the appropriate physical, electronic, and managerial procedures to safeguard and secure the information we collect.  When you place orders for purchased products or access your payment information, we use industry standard SSL (Secure Socket Layer) encryption technology to protect the storage and transfer of your data from unauthorized parties. Encryption is a process by which a message or information is scrambled while it is in transit to our website SSL codes the information transferred between you and the server, rendering it unreadable to anyone trying to intercept the information. In addition to our online security efforts, we take steps to protect your personal data offline, as well. All sensitive information and/or systems that house that information (i.e., computers or filing cabinet) have physically restricted access in our offices. Employees are granted access on a need-to-know basis pursuant to specific job function requirements (for example, a billing clerk or a customer service representative). Furthermore, ALL employees are kept up-to-date on our security and privacy practices through periodic training sessions in an effort to keep security awareness levels high.

• Information About Children
We are committed to protecting the privacy and rights of children online. We believe that children should be able to use the Internet in a safe, productive, and efficient manner and should be afforded the highest protection available with respect to their personal information. The Children's Online Privacy Protection Act ("COPPA") took effect on April 21, 2000 and imposes certain requirements on Web sites directed toward children under 13 that collect information on those children, or on Web sites that know they are collecting information on children under the age of 13. It currently is DL's policy not to collect personal information on any person under 13. While we do no specifically seek to obtain information from children, there are areas of our website that children may visit. To learn more about COPPA, consult the Federal Trade Commission’s COPPA Web Site www.ftc.gov or you may call 202/FTC-HELP.
