Please keep in mind that if you directly disclose personally identifiable information or personally sensitive data through Performance Brick public message boards, this information may be collected and used by others. Note: Performance Brick does not read any of your private online communications.

Performance Brick encourages you to review the privacy statements of Web sites you choose to link to from Performance Brick so that you can understand how those Web sites collect, use and share your information. Performance Brick is not responsible for the privacy statements or other content on Web sites outside of the Performance Brick and Performance Brick family of Web sites.

Performance Brick may, from time to time, contact you on behalf of external business partners about a particular offering that may be of interest to you. In those cases, your unique personally identifiable information (e-mail, name, address, telephone number) is not transferred to the third party. In addition, Performance Brick may share data with trusted partners to help us perform statistical analysis, send you email or postal mail, provide customer support, or arrange for deliveries.

Performance Brick keeps track of the Web sites and pages our customers visit within Performance Brick, in order to determine what Performance Brick services are the most popular. This data is used to deliver customized content and advertising within Performance Brick to customers whose behavior indicates that they are interested in a particular subject area.

Performance Brick Web sites will disclose your personal information, without notice, only if required to do so by law or in the good faith belief that such action is necessary to: (a) conform to the edicts of the law or comply with legal process served on Performance Brick or the site; (b) protect and defend the rights or property of Performance Brick; and, (c) act under exigent circumstances to protect the personal safety of users of Performance Brick, or the public.

Use of Cookies

The Performance Brick Web site use "cookies" to help you personalize your online experience. A cookie is a text file that is placed on your hard disk by a Web page server. Cookies cannot be used to run programs or deliver viruses to your computer. Cookies are uniquely assigned to you, and can only be read by a web server in the domain that issued the cookie to you.

One of the primary purposes of cookies is to provide a convenience feature to save you time. The purpose of a cookie is to tell the Web server that you have returned to a specific page. For example, if you personalize Performance Brick pages, or register with Performance Brick site or services, a cookie helps Performance Brick to recall your specific information on subsequent visits. This simplifies the process of recording your personal information, such as billing addresses, shipping addresses, and so on. When you return to the same Performance Brick Web site, the information you previously provided can be retrieved, so you can easily use the Performance Brick features that you customized.

You have the ability to accept or decline cookies. Most Web browsers automatically accept cookies, but you can usually modify your browser setting to decline cookies if you prefer. If you choose to decline cookies, you may not be able to fully experience the interactive features of the Performance Brick services or Web sites you visit.

Security of your Personal Information

Performance Brick secures your personal information from unauthorized access, use or disclosure. Performance Brick secures the personally identifiable information you provide on computer servers in a controlled, secure environment, protected from unauthorized access, use or disclosure. When personal information (such as a credit card number) is transmitted to other Web sites, it is protected through the use of encryption, such as the Secure Socket Layer (SSL) protocol.

Changes to this Statement

Performance Brick will occasionally update this Statement of Privacy to reflect company and customer feedback. Performance Brick encourages you to periodically review this Statement to be informed of how Performance Brick is protecting your information.
