Privacy Policy

We, at Ely Cattleman, value your privacy. ElyCattleman.com allows you to buy Ely Cattleman products, enter occasional contests, receive special discounts, fill out surveys, and receive newsletters, e-mails and other promotional information from us.

We use the information that we collect about you to fulfill your purchases and to create a more personalized online experience. This policy may change from time to time without prior notice to you. All changes will be posted on ElyCattleman.com.

INFORMATION

TYPES OF INFORMATION

In order to better provide you with products and services, ElyCattleman.com collects two types of information about its visitors: personally identifiable information and non-personally identifiable information. Our primary goal in collecting information from you is to provide you with a smooth and customized experience while using ElyCattleman.com.

In order to most efficiently serve you, credit card transactions and order fulfillment are handled by established third party banking, processing agents and distribution institutions. They receive the information needed to verify and authorize your credit card or other payment information and to process and ship your order.

PERSONALLY IDENTIFIABLE INFORMATION

This refers to information that lets us know the specifics of who you are. Personal information is requested when you order a product or service, enter contests or sweepstakes, fill out surveys, send us feedback, and enroll in electronic newsletters. For example, this information might include your name, billing address, shipping address, telephone number, e-mail address, credit/debit card or other payment information, and product and order details. With this information, we can fill your orders, and better provide you with personalized services.

 

If you purchase an item or gift card on this site and ask us to deliver your purchase to someone else, we ask for the recipient's name, postal address and email address. We use this information to send the gift card or item to the recipient. If you ask us to do so, we also may use this information to notify the recipient of your gift before it arrives.

You may be able to register to create an account on this website. To do so, we ask for personal information as specified above. You also may provide your age and gender and birthday. Through the account feature, you can store billing and shipping information and payment card information, so you won't have to enter it again when you make another purchase on this site. You also can review details of your past purchases via the account icon on the top right of the store.

You can create and save an address book on your account. You can delete entries in the address book at any time. We will not use or disclose the information you delete from your address book.

NON-PERSONALLY IDENTIFIABLE INFORMATION

This refers to information that does not by itself identify a specific individual. ElyCattleman.com gathers certain information about you based upon where you shop on it in several ways. This information is compiled and analyzed on both a personal and an aggregated basis.

For example, this information may include the Uniform Resource Locator ("URL") of the website from which you came from, which URL you next go to, what browser you are using, and your Internet Protocol ("IP") address. A URL is the global address of documents and other resources on the World Wide Web. An IP address is an identifier for a computer or device on a Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol ("TCP/IP") network, such as the World Wide Web. Networks like the World Wide Web use the TCP/IP protocol to route information based on the IP address of the destination.

In other words, an IP address is a number that is automatically assigned to your computer whenever you are surfing the web, allowing web servers to locate and identify your computer. Computers require IP addresses in order for users to communicate on the Internet, browse and shop.

PRODUCT REVIEWS

If you choose to submit a product review on ElyCattleman.com, we may ask you for information such as your name and city of residence, which may be used in connection with your review (altogether, the “Review Information”). By submitting the Review Information, you consent to our use, modification, reproduction, transmission, publication and display of such Review Information on ElyCattleman.com and other channels such as but not limited to Facebook, Instagram and electronic newsletters, and also in connection with the promotion, marketing and advertising of our products and services; however, we are under no obligation to post any Review Information.

INFORMATION SHARING

Ely Cattleman shares information with third party companies such as credit/debit card processing centers, and shipping carriers employed by Ely Cattleman to perform functions on its behalf including order fulfillment, postal and email delivery, and credit processes. The only information shared with these third parties is that information which is necessary to process your order.

Ely Cattleman may share your personal information with its affiliated companies and subsidiaries for marketing reasons. We reserve the right to share information with third party marketers, but only as permitted by law, and will provide you with an opportunity to opt-out of such information sharing. We reserve the right to disclose your information as required by law, and when we believe disclosure is necessary to protect our rights and/or comply with a judicial proceeding, court order, or legal process served on us.
