Purpose:
Our Privacy Policy is designed to assist you in understanding how we collect and use the personal information you provide to Burgard Cycle and to assist you in making informed decisions when using our site and our products and services.
Information Collected by Burgard Cycle:
When you visit our Web site you may provide us with two types of information: personal information you knowingly choose to disclose that is collected on an individual basis and Web site use information collected on an aggregate basis as you browse our Web site.
Your IP Address
Burgard Cycle collects IP addresses for the purposes of system administration, to generate aggregate information, and to audit the use of our site. When you request pages from burgardcycle.com, our servers log your IP address. We do not normally link IP addresses to anything personally identifiable, which means that your session will be logged, but you remain anonymous to us. We can and will use IP addresses to identify a user when we feel it is necessary to enforce compliance with our terms of use of the Web site or to protect our service, site, customers or others.

You will provide us information about yourself, your company, and your practices when you register to be a member of burgardcycle.com, register for certain services, or products, or use our contact form.
Email Information:
If you choose to correspond with Burgard Cycle through email, we may retain the content of your email messages together with your email address and our responses.
Web Site Use Information:
Similar to other Web sites, our Web site utilizes a standard technology called "cookies" (see explanation below, "What Are Cookies?") and Web server logs to collect information about how our Web site is used. Information gathered through cookies and Web server logs may include the date and time of visits, the pages viewed, time spent at our Web site, and the Web sites visited just before and just after our Web site.
Cookies Defined:
A cookie is a very small text document, which often includes an anonymous unique identifier. When you visit a Web site, that site's computer asks your computer for permission to store this file in a part of your hard drive specifically designated for cookies. Each Web site can send its own cookie to your browser if your browser's preferences allow it, but (to protect your privacy) your browser only permits a Web site to access the cookies it has already sent to you, not the cookies sent to you by other sites.
Use Information Collected from Cookies:
As you shop on Burgard Cycle, the site uses its cookies to differentiate you from other shoppers so your shopping cart is only available to you. In some cases, we also use cookies to prevent you from seeing unnecessary advertisements or requiring you to log in more than is necessary for security. Cookies, in conjunction with our Web server's log files, allow us to calculate the aggregate number of people visiting our Web site and which parts of the site are most popular. This helps us gather feedback in order to constantly improve our Web site and better serve our customers. Cookies do not allow us to gather any personal information about you and we do not generally store any personal information that you provided to us in your cookies.
Sharing Information with Third Parties:
Burgard Cycle does not sell, rent, loan, trade, or lease any personal information collected at our site, including membership forms or email lists.
Certain Disclosures:
We may disclosure your personal information if required to do so by law or subpoena or if we believe that such action is necessary to (a) conform to the law or comply with legal process served on us or Affiliated Parties; (b) protect and defend our rights and property, the Site, the users of the Site, and/or our Affiliated Parties; or (c) act under circumstances to protect the safety of users of the Site, us, or third parties.
Links From Other Web Sites:
Burgard Cycle is not responsible for the practices employed by Web sites linked to or from our Web site nor the information or content contained therein. Often links to other Web sites are provided solely as pointers to information on topics that may be useful to the users of our Web site.
It is important to remember that when you use a link to go from our Web site to another Web site, our Privacy Policy is no longer in effect. Your browsing and interaction on any other Web site, including Web sites which have a link on our Web site, is subject to that Web site's own rules and policies. Please read over those rules and policies before proceeding.

If you do not agree to this policy statement as well as the terms and conditions of use, then please do not use our Web site. Your continued use of the burgardcycle.com Web site following the posting of changes to this policy statement or the terms and conditions of use will mean you accept those changes.
