Privacy Statement for Long Island Customs

Long Island Customs has created this privacy statement in order to demonstrate our firm commitment to privacy. The following discloses the information gathering and dissemination practices for
Long Island Customs
PLEASE NOTE THAT WE HAVE DISCONTINUED OUR MAILING LIST. If you receive mail that says you are a member of Ripper's Mailing List or the Long Island Customs mailing list, let us know immediately so we can track down the offending party.
Information Automatically Logged
We use your IP address to help diagnose problems with our server and to administer our Web site. It gives us a good indication of where our visitors are coming from as well. Your IP address is simply a set of numbers that tells us who your Internet Service Provider (ISP) is, it gives us no personal information whatsoever about you. Your ISP, however, can track you down using this information. This is important for us to track people that may become a nuisance or post on our forums with abusive comments or send us nasty email messages. In other words, you can run but you can't hide. No one else will ever get any IP address information from our website (unless you fall into one of those abuse categories above). We do not share ANY information with ANY other website, business, or other entity of any kind (again, unless you are being abusive to us or other forum visitors).
Advertisers
We have outside companies who display ads on our site. These ads may contain cookies. We do not have any control over these nor do we ever receive any information from them. Simply disable all 3rd party cookies if you are concerned. We certainly won't mind.
Registration Forms
We have registration forms on this site for our forum, which allows uploading of files and other personal information. The registration forms are for our protection as well as yours. All forms on this site are for your voluntary use, there are no restrictions for any visitors of our site with the exception of the forum area mentioned above. The forum is available for all of our visitors to view, however users who wish to contribute to the forum need to register with us for security reasons.
Order Forms
Our site uses order forms for customers to request information, products, and services. We collect contact information (like email and street address, real name, etc.). Contact information from the order forms is used to ship products and purchases. The customer's contact information is also used to get in touch with the visitor when necessary. No one but our billing and/or shipping dept will ever get any of your personal information from this website. Financial information (like bank account or credit card numbers) is collected by an outside company called PayPal. We no longer deal directly with bank or credit card information. We have found PayPal to be secure, safe, and free to use for the buyer (unlike other services which charge extra). You can click HERE to go to their site. You can use any credit card or your PayPal account, and they also have a Debit Visa or MasterCard that you can use at any ATM or in any store. The card is free to get and there is also no fee for using it, unless the ATM or Store charges you a fee of their own (which would apply to any other card you had as well). Note that our site can now accept payments from anyone with a major credit card as well as PayPal and postal money orders. You no longer need a PayPal account to use our payment pages, but you can still use your PayPal account with them.
Surveys
Our online surveys (we occasionally add a survey here or there) ask visitors for contact information (like their email address). Contact information from the surveys is used to request feedback about our site and it's services. The customer's contact information is also used to get in touch with the visitor when necessary. No one else will ever have access to this information and we will not use this information for any purpose other than what is stated here. Users may opt-out of receiving future mailings; see the choice/opt-out section below. (Please note that this does not include any mailing list of any kind, it is simply an opt-out of future personal contact. We really try not to bother anyone and any mailings are generally for the benefit of our customers and/or website visitors. We almost never do any mass mailings. The only time we would is if there was a known issue that might require contact with everyone we can reach. Just about the only reason for this would be if someone hacked our website or email servers and sent out a virus, etc., and that is very unlikely to happen.)
External Links
This site contains links to other sites. Long Island Customs is not responsible for the privacy practices or the content of those Web sites. We do our best to limit the access of any materials that may be objectionable, I.E. adult content, nudity, etc. but we can not police all of the links on our site all of the time. If a link is found to be objectionable, it is removed as swiftly as possible. Users can notify us of any objectionable material by clicking............
Special Relationships
We have a few partner programs and links to outside sites that provide our visitors with services or goods of some kind. We do our best to investigate each partner program and/or service provider before we add their link. Long Island Customs is not responsible for any action by any other website or partner linked from our site. We want to provide our visitors with useful information and services. If a service or product is found to be of lesser quality than advertised, it's link will be promptly removed. We have removed quite a few links to services that did not meet our standards and will continue to do so if warranted. Users can notify us of any problems by clicking.............
Cookies
Our online forum uses cookies to remember your login information (logging in is required to post or reply at the forum). Having 3rd party cookies disabled will not affect the forum.
Security
This site has several security measures in place to protect the loss, misuse, and alteration of the information under our control. No outside source will EVER get any personal information from our site unless it is given by the visitor directly to that outside source (this is not possible to do on this site, you could only do this by leaving our site and following an outside link). We respect the privacy of our visitors and want them to return many times and not be afraid to leave any of their personal information with us. Any information we get will be used only to benefit our visitors, not to harm them in any way. We take our security and the safe use of visitor information very seriously. Users can notify us of any security issues they have or ask questions regarding security issues by clicking............
Choice-Opt-Out
Our site provides users the opportunity to opt-out of receiving any promotional/marketing information from us. Please note that we have never and will never give out or sell e-mail or other contact information for any of our visitors for any reason. You will never get any 3rd party e-mails by giving us your e-mail address. We also no longer run a mailing list for fear of annoying any of our past, present and future customers and friends (and to be honest, it was alot of work every month and we just don't have the time to do it all anymore, especially when we got a few complaints from people who forgot that they signed up for our monthly newsletter). This site also gives users the following options for changing and modifying information previously provided:
  1. You can send updated contact information to update our records. Please include all e-mail addresses you used to contact us so we can properly update your contact information. Or:
  2. You can send email by clicking............ to be removed from our address book or to remove defunct e-mail addresses from our system. Please include all e-mail addresses you may have used and we will delete any and all of them from our database as per your instructions (this will also help us figure out who is who. In some instances, we have several e-mail addresses on file for the same person). *NOTE* This is not a mailing list. We no longer maintain any mailing list of any kind. If you wish to receive any information from us on a regular basis, just ask and we will be happy to update you personally. If you ever receive mail stating it is from Ripper's Mailing List, please notify us immediately. You can receive email when our website is updated. Just go to the home page and check out the box that says "Notify me when this page changes". You can sign up or unsubscribe there. This service will alert you with an e-mail whenever we update that page. You can add as many pages as you like, but keep in mind this service is self-regulated (you are in charge). We have no control over which pages you add, delete, etc.... and we cannot change your preferences either.
