What information we collect from you:

In General: We receive and store any information you enter on our Web site or give us in any other way. This includes information that can identify you ("personal information"), including your first and last name, telephone number, postal and e-mail addresses, and, in some cases, billing information (such as credit card number, cardholder name, and expiration date). You can choose not to provide information to us, but in general some information about you is required in order for you to purchase products; participate in a survey; ask us a question; or initiate other transactions on our site.

How we use your information:

DryBuddy.com uses sensitive billing information (such as cardholder name, credit card number, and expiration date) for the purpose of completing purchases or any other financial transactions with you on our site. We use other information about you for the following general purposes: to provide you with the services you request; to manage your account; to communicate with you in general; to respond to your questions and comments; to measure interest in and improve our services and Web site; to notify you about special offers and services that may be of interest to you; to otherwise customize your experience with DryBuddy.com; to solicit information from you, including through surveys; to resolve disputes, collect fees, or troubleshoot problems; to prevent potentially prohibited or illegal activities; to enforce our Terms and Conditions of Sale and Warranty; and as otherwise described to you at the point of collection.

With whom we share your information:

DryBuddy.com may share your information with third-party vendors who provide services or functions on our behalf, including credit card processing, business analytics, customer service, marketing, distribution of surveys or sweepstakes programs, and fraud prevention. These companies have access to personal information needed to perform their functions but are not permitted to share or use the information for any other purpose.

We also may share your information:

  • In response to subpoenas, court orders, or other legal process; to establish or exercise our legal rights; to defend against legal claims; or as otherwise required by law. In such cases we reserve the right to raise or waive any legal objection or right available to us.
  • When we believe it is appropriate to investigate, prevent, or take action regarding illegal or suspected illegal activities; to protect and defend the rights, property, or safety of DryBuddy.com, our customers, or others; and in connection with our Terms and Conditions of Sale and Warranty and other agreements.
  • In connection with a corporate transaction, such as a divestiture, merger, consolidation, or asset sale, or in the unlikely event of bankruptcy.
    Other than as set out above, you will be notified when personal information about you will be shared with third parties, and you will have an opportunity to choose not to have us share such information.
