You can choose what information to give to us through web site forms, email, calls, and other interactions, but some of this information may be required to provide you with certain services or goods (for example, the billing or delivery address if you order merchandise from us). If you choose not to provide such information, we will not be able to provide you with such services or goods.
In addition, our web sites may collect and store connection information about you such as:

This web site tracking requires an initial opt-in or opt-out response the first time you visit one of our sites after May 25, 2018, in compliance with the European Union’s General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). You may change your response at any time via a link provided on our Cookie Policy page.
Please see our Cookie Policy for more information on how we use cookies to track your opt-in/opt-out preferences.
Your personal information will not be sold or otherwise shared with anyone else without your consent, unless we are under a legal obligation to do so. The only exception to this is that we store contact information with Act-On, a 3rd party Data Processor (in GDPR terms) who provides a platform for us to process and send communication to you with your opted-in permission. This Data Processor is also legally bound to the terms of the GDPR as we are, and will not store, share, or otherwise use your personal information except to process and send communication to you on our behalf.
If you provide credit card information, we do not maintain it on our servers. We also offer you the option to allow us to keep track of the conversations and interactions we have with you, including images you upload, technical queries, product preferences, product requests, your field of interest, or related information that enables us to provide you with ongoing personalized service and support.
When we ask for your e-mail address, you will be given the option to receive further e-mails from us relating to your specific interests, or our company and products. We will not send you e-mails unless you have so requested. Any such emails will always be accompanied with an “opt out” mechanism so that you can easily discontinue receiving e-mails from us.
Please note: for the purposes of the GDPR, we are the Data Controller in relation to personal data collected by us.
