DETAILS
We at Original Approach, LLC are committed to maintaining the privacy and security of the Personal Information of all the visitors to this website. As a part of that commitment, Original Approach is in the process of implementing our updated Privacy Policy and Information Privacy Statements to reflect the current needs of our visitors to know what information about them we collect, why we collect it, and where it goes. We encourage you to read this Information Privacy Statement and our Global Information Privacy Policy.
At this website, Original Approach collects information in four ways:
First, we passively collect information that is automatically sent to us by your web browser. This information typically includes your domain name (the site after the @ in your e-mail address). It may also contain your user name (the name you are known as before the @ in your e-mail address). The amount of information sent depends on the settings you have on your web browser; please refer to your browser if you want to learn what information it sends.
We use the information we automatically receive from your web browser to see which pages you visit within our site, which site you visited before coming to ours, and where you go after you leave. We at Original Approach can then develop statistics that are very helpful to understanding how this site is used by our visitors. This statistical data is interpreted by Original Approach in its continuing effort to present the website content that customers are seeking in a format they find most helpful.
Second, we may actively obtain information about you by installing our own marker on your computer. This marker is commonly called a "cookie" and it enables us to know you by a computer-generated, unique identifier. By providing you a unique identifier, we are able to create a database of your previous choices and preferences, and in situations where these choices or preferences need to be collected again, they can be supplied by us automatically, saving you time and effort. For example, after you purchase a product once, if you need to purchase it again, your previous selections for size, color or other features will have been retained, and can be reentered more quickly. Your computer may be specially configured to reject cookies; please refer to your browser for more information.
Third, we collect information at this page when you contact us or respond to the surveys, questionnaires or applications we make available. If you e-mail us, you are voluntarily releasing information to us. If you answer questions we have placed on the page, you are also voluntarily releasing that information to us. (You may decide not to answer any questions; if you do, you may still continue your visit, but we may elect not to provide you the related services or features.) All computer-generated information, such as your e-mail address, may be used or shared with Original Approach affiliates, third parties and/or transmitted to another country. An example of a third party that could receive your Personal Information is a data processing contractor that operates computer systems on our behalf. Our third-party recipients are: data processing contractors that provide computer services on our behalf, distribution firms that will fulfill your requests, billing firms that process your orders, mailing firms that will assist us with our mailings, marketing firms that will assist us with direct marketing, and service contractors that provide maintenance and repair services on our behalf. Whenever any data is transferred to a third party, that party will be contractually bound to abide by our privacy policy.
Fourth, if you enter into a transaction, such as a purchase, from this page, we will collect information needed to complete the transaction, including your name, your shipping address, your product selection(s), and your payment information. We do not save any credit or other payment information longer than is necessary in order to comply with the law and auditing requirements.
Original Approach may use any of the information gathered at the Subscription Page (other than credit information) for any legal purpose. For example, we may use the information for direct marketing. We may analyze it for historical, statistical or scientific purposes, or we may store it for your convenience should you return to this page in the future. In the course of any of these activities, we may transmit the information to another country and/or share it with third parties. We may also use it to investigate security breaches or cooperate with authorities pursuant to a legal matter.
In addition, we may have collected similar information from you in the past. By agreeing to the terms of our privacy policy you are consenting to our continued use of previously collected information.
For your convenience, this page may contain certain hyperlinks to other Original Approach pages as well as to sites outside Original Approach. While Original Approach has posted an appropriate Information Privacy Statement throughout our websites, we can make no promises or guarantees regarding data collection on the hyperlinked pages and sites that are not owned by Original Approach, LLC.
