Visitor Identification
From time to time, we or our third party designees may place information
on your computer to allow us to identify you. This information is commonly
known as "cookies". The use of cookies is an industry standard
and many web sites use them. Further, cookies obviate the need for you
to enter your password frequently during a session. Cookies are stored
on your computer's hard drive and not on this Site. We and/or our third
party designees will only view information put on your computer in cookies
set by PWC and/or our third party designees from this Site or other
PWC web sites. By showing how and when our visitors use this Site or
other PWC sites, we can continue to improve them. If you do not wish
to receive cookies, or want to be notified of when they are placed,
you may set your web browser to do so, if your browser so permits. Please

or fulfill your requests, it may be necessary for PWC to ask for personal
information from you such as your name, address, e-mail address and

a service or submit content to this Site, PWC may need to contact you

In addition to the personal information that you provide us, this Site
uses technology that lets PWC collect certain technical information.

banks, finance or credit card companies, logistics and transport service
providers and authorized after-sales service providers, as well as respond

that disclosure of information is reasonably necessary to respond to
claims that content you have submitted to this Site violates the rights
of third parties or as necessary to protect PWC's, its Web site users'
and/or the public's rights, property and/or safety. PWC also has the
right, but not the obligation, to retain and use such information stored
in PWC databases and other information obtained from your current or
previous activities on this Site for a reasonable period of time, not
to exceed any legal requirements or limitations, to resolve disputes,
troubleshoot problems, and enforce PWC's legal rights and the terms
and conditions of this Privacy Policy, this Site's Site Terms (and Legal
Notice) or this Site's Order Terms of Sale. On rare occasions PWC may
evaluate your information in order to track users with multiple user
ID's or aliases for legal and/or security purposes. Please also note
that if PWC is compelled by law, court order or other judicial process
to disclose any of your personal information to a court or third party,
PWC will attempt to give you prior notice using the contact information
you have provided. You hereby authorize PWC to disclose any information
about you for any of the above purposes stated in this Policy's "Personal
Information" Section, such as in connection with an investigation
of intellectual property infringements or other activity that is illegal
or may expose PWC to legal liability.
Security
PWC has endeavored to take commercially reasonable measures to prevent
unauthorized access to and improper use of your personal information.
For example, PWC uses encryption technology when collecting sensitive
data such as credit card information. If this Site supports on-line
transactions, it uses security measures available through "Secure
Sockets Layer" ("SSL") to protect the confidentiality
and security of online transactions. SSL authentication up to 128- bit
encryption is used to ensure that credit card information, as well as
personal information, submitted as part of the buying process is reasonably
safe from third party interception. Please note that while there are
always risks associated with providing personal data, whether in person,
by phone or via SSL or other technologies over the Internet, and, no
system of technology is completely safe, "tamper "or"
hacker-proof", PWC has endeavored to take reasonable precautions
which are appropriate to the sensitivity of the information to prevent
and minimize such risks in connection with your use of this Site.
