This Privacy Policy describes how we use and do not use information provided to us at PCPalComputerServices.com, and the pages therein (the "Website"), and the steps we take to protect it. This Privacy Policy applies to only information collected on the Website.

Personal Information Collection

When you schedule an appointment for service or make a purchase on the Website, we ask for your name, address, phone number, email address and other personal information necessary to fulfill and track your request for service or order. For purposes of billing, you will need to provide your credit card type, number, security code, expiration date and billing address for the card or you may use a payment service such as PayPal where some of this information will be transmitted to us to fulfill your requests. If your order is to be shipped, we also need the name, address and phone number of the intended recipient(s).

Occasionally we conduct surveys on the Website. If you choose to participate in an online survey, we may request personal information from you. In addition, we may ask for other optional survey information, such as gender, age and previous experiences with other services or PCPal.

We do not knowingly collect information about children or sell products or services to children. Consistent with the Children's Online Privacy Protection Act, we will not knowingly collect any information from or sell products to children under the age of 13. If you are under the age of 13, you must ask your parent or guardian to assist you in using our Website.

Cookies

When you visit the Website, small text files known as "cookies" may be stored on your computer's hard drive. Cookies allow us to enhance and customize your online experience and improve the design of our Website. These cookies store random ID numbers and site navigation information such as your first and last visits, number of visits, shopping cart contents, and the pages you viewed on our website.

The information stored in a cookie cannot be used to identify you personally unless combined with information that you have provided in connection with a purchase, setting up an account, or registering for promotional emails, alerts, or surveys. Although IP addresses alone can reveal the location of your computer, we will use such information only to investigate and identify unauthorized activities.

PCPal may use session cookies to observe your navigation throughout the website for the purposes described above. You may set your Web browser to notify you when you receive a cookie and you may also erase cookies from your browser after shopping. If you delete our cookies, you limit our ability to personalize the Website for your next visit; however, deleting a cookie will not prevent you from scheduling service or purchasing at our Website in the future. You may also set your Web browser not to accept cookies.

We do not rent, sell or exchange your name or other personally-identifiable information to third-party companies for their marketing purposes.

We encourage you to read that website's policy before submitting any personal information if you have concerns about how your information may be collected or used.

You may also use an express checkout tool from another website to make a purchase at our Website. In such event, please be aware that both our Website and that website or search engine may have access to certain portions of your information.
