II. How do we Use Your Personal Information?
When we talk about “Personal Information” in this Privacy Policy, we are talking both about Device Information and Order Information.
- We use the Order Information that we collect generally to fulfill any orders placed through the Site (including processing your payment information, arranging for shipping, and providing you with invoices and/or order confirmations). Additionally, we use this Order Information to communicate with you about your order status, and to screen our orders for potential risk or fraud.
- We use the Device Information that we collect to help us screen for potential risk and fraud (in particular your IP address), and more generally to improve and optimize our Site (for example, by generating analytics about how our customers browse and interact with the Site, and to assess the success of our marketing and advertising campaigns).
- We allow third parties to process your IP address in order to determine your location for the purpose of currency and language conversion. By using our site you agree to have session cookies stored in your browser (a temporary cookie which gets automatically removed when you close your browser). We do this in order for the currency and language to remain selected and consistent when browsing our website, and so that the prices can convert to your local currency.
- If you have agreed to marketing, we use your personal information to provide you with email announcements concerning new products, services, application notes, and/or special deals and offers. Out of respect for the privacy of our customers, every email contains an "unsubscribe" button to remove you from our email list at a later time.
- The information collected on our site may be used to create customer profiles based on browsing or purchasing history. We may supplement information collected at our Web site with data from other sources such as credit history to authorize purchases.
