We receive and store any information you enter on our Web site or provide to us in any other way. The types of Personal Information collected includes: your name, address, email address, telephone and facsimile number.

Generally, our service automatically collects usage information, such as the numbers and frequency of visitors to our site and its components. Budget Blinds only uses this data in aggregate form, that is, as a statistical measure, and not in a manner that would identify you personally. This type of aggregate data enables us to figure out how often visitors use parts of the Web site or services so that we can make the Web site appealing to as many visitors as possible, and improve those services.

Budget Blinds cookies do not collect Personal Information, and we do not combine the general information collected through cookies with other Personal Information to tell us who you are or what your email address is.

Most browsers have an option for turning off the cookie feature, which will prevent your browser from accepting new cookies, as well as (depending on the sophistication of your browser software) allowing you to decide on acceptance of each new cookie in a variety of ways.

You acknowledge that such transfers may occur, and that any acquirer of Budget Blinds may continue to use your Personal Information as set forth in this policy.

We may release Personal Information when we believe in good faith that release is necessary to comply with the law; or protect the rights, property, or safety of Budget Blinds, our employees, or others. This includes exchanging information with other companies and organizations for fraud protection.

Except as set forth above, you will be notified when your Personal Information may be shared with third parties, and will be able to prevent the sharing of this information.
