Cookies
Extreme Electronics uses a technology called “cookies” to store session information. A cookie is a small text file that is stored on your local computer and allows us to identify users who have previously registered or visited the site. Session cookies are automatically deleted from your hard drive at the end of a session. If you access the portions of our website that require a password, persistent cookies, which are not automatically deleted from your hard drive at the end of a session, are used. Most web-browsers offer the option to refuse any cookie, but they also usually accept cookies by default. You can change this default in most browsers and cause the browser to stop accepting cookies or to prompt you before accepting a cookie from a website. If you choose to decline cookies, you may not be able to fully experience the functionality for our website or services. Please note, there is no accepted standard on how to respond to Do Not Track signals, and we do not respond to such signals.

In order to protect both the Personal Information and the general information that we receive from you through your use of Extreme Electronics ’s website, we have taken measures to ensure your security. When you enter sensitive information (such as your credit card number) on our online forms, we encrypt that information using secure socket layer technology (SSL). You can verify this by looking for a lock icon in the address bar and looking for “https” at the beginning of the address of the web page. We also follow generally accepted industry standards to protect the Personal Information submitted to us, both during transmission and once we receive it. While every precaution is used to protect your Personal Information and privacy, Extreme Electronics cannot guarantee the security of any information you disclose online. By using Extreme Electronics ’s service, you expressly acknowledge and agree that we do not guarantee the security of any data provided to or received by us through your use of Extreme Electronics ’s service, and that any information or other data received from you through your use of our service is provided to us at your own risk.

The computers/ servers in which we store Personal Information are kept in a secure environment.
