We appreciate that our customers and visitors to our website may be concerned about privacy. For this reason, we have developed the following Privacy Policy. If you have any questions regarding our Privacy Policy, please direct those questions to br@brawlings.com.

HOW WE PROTECT PERSONAL INFORMATION: A payment data security system protects customer information by protecting against unauthorized disclosure, use, alteration, or destruction of any personal information you provide on this website.

HOW WE COLLECT AND USE YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION AND WHY WE COLLECT IT: If you choose to supply us with your personal information, we will use that information only consistently with this Privacy Policy. Please note that certain personal information must be supplied to place an order. You may also be required to provide certain additional information when signing up for an account. This information may include your name, address, phone number, email address, credit card number and expiration date, card verification number, etc.; however, this information will never include your social security number. We use this information to process and complete your order and provide service to you. We encourage you to keep your user ID and password confidential and to ensure that your computer and software are up to date. If for any reason whatsoever you feel your user ID and password have become compromised, please contact us immediately. In connection with your use of our website, certain other information may also be collected. For example, we may use “cookie” technology (as explained below) to help keep track of items that you have placed into your cart before checkout, to help validate your identity, and to help detect and prevent potentially fraudulent activity. We may also use “web beacons” (as described below) to help analyze and audit web traffic.

BROWSER COOKIES AND WEB BEACONS: We use browser cookies — small files containing a combination of letters or numbers that are sent to your computer — to help enhance your online experience and make your use of our website more efficient. While various web browsers may allow you to block or disable browser cookies, please note that our website, particularly the shopping cart and checkout features, may not work properly if you disable browser cookies. We may also use web beacons — a small, clear graphical file that your web browser may download when loading a page on our website — to help analyze and audit our website and the related transactions.

CONFIDENTIALITY; EXCEPTIONS: We do not knowingly reveal any personal information that is provided by our customers through our website to any third parties except as provided in this Privacy Policy, when requested to do so by a governmental agency having jurisdiction, by a court of competent jurisdiction or other operation of law, or when we believe that disclosure is necessary or appropriate to prevent physical harm or financial loss in connection with an investigation of suspected or actual illegal activity. All information provided by customers using our ordering system is kept strictly confidential and secure to prevent unauthorized use of personal information.

We reserve the right to transfer any information we have about you in the event we sell or transfer all or a portion of our business or assets. Should a sale or transfer occur, we will use reasonable efforts to direct the transferee to use the personal information you have provided through this website in a manner that is consistent with this Privacy Policy.

REVIEW OF AND CHANGES TO YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION: You may review personal information you have provided to u.  Please note that your user ID and password will be needed to review your account information and that some account information may not be changed. If you are having difficulty correcting or updating your personal information provided to us, please contact us at br@brawlings.com.

A WARNING ABOUT EMAIL THAT WE SEND; A WARNING ABOUT “PHISHING”: We may send you emails from time to time to provide you with useful information regarding our products and services, including special, limited-time offers and discounts. However, we do not and will not at any time request any personal information via email nor will we include a link to the account login page in the email. If you receive an email requesting your user ID, your password, your social security number, or your credit card and/or bank information, PLEASE DO NOT RESPOND BY PROVIDING THE INFORMATION REQUESTED. If you receive an email requesting any of this information, it is likely that you have received an attempted theft of your identity commonly called “phishing.” Likewise, if you experienced an email urging you to log in to your account and providing you with a link to the login page, it is also likely that you have received a “phishing” email. In either case, you should bring the email to our attention by forwarding the email to br@brawlings.com. If we send you an email requesting that you log in to your account, we strongly recommend that you open your web browser and manually input the address for our website. Doing so will ensure that you do not open some third-party website disguised to look like our website. For more information about “phishing,” you should visit the Federal Trade Commission’s website at www.ftc.gov.

EFFECTIVE DATE OF THE PRIVACY POLICY; CHANGES: This Privacy Policy is effective on November 1, 2011. We reserve the right to alter or amend this Privacy Policy at any time and without prior notice to you to reflect changes in our online information practices. In an effort to ensure that you receive notice of any changes to the Privacy Policy, we may include a notice on our website. Alternatively, we may send a notice to the email address you provided to us; however, if you do not provide us with an email address, we will not be able to provide you with notice.
