and Privacy
Cookies
A cookie is a small text file that is stored on a user’s
computer for record-keeping purposes. We use session ID
cookies to make it easier for you to navigate our site,
which expire when you close your browser. However, even
if your browser’s settings block all cookies, you
will still have full access and functionality on our site.
Encryption and Security
We use SSL128 Bit Encryption to protect your privacy. Our
SSL certificate is provided by Geotrust.com.
The security of your personal information is important to
us. When you enter sensitive information (such as credit
card numbers) on our registration or order forms, we encrypt
that information using secure socket layer technology (SSL).
To learn more about SSL, follow this link: www.webopedia.com.
We follow generally accepted industry standards to protect
the personal information submitted to us, both during transmission
and once we receive it. No method of transmission over the
Internet, or method of electronic storage, is 100% secure,
however. Therefore, while we strive to use commercially
acceptable means to protect your personal information, we
cannot guarantee its absolute security.
If you have any questions about security on our Web site,
you can send an email to us at customerservice@malabar.net.
Privacy
We respect your privacy. If you purchase a product from
us, we request certain personally identifiable information
from you on our order form. You must provide contact information
(such as name, email, and shipping address) and financial
information (such as credit card number, expiration date).
We use this information for billing purposes and to fill
your orders. If we have trouble processing an order, we
will use this information to contact you. Once your order
is processed, your credit card information will be cleared
from our server. We will add your email address to our mailing
list only if you request it.
Tell-A-Friend
If you choose to use our referral service to tell a friend
about our site, we will ask you for your friend’s
name and email address. We will automatically send your
friend a one-time email inviting him or her to visit the
site. Malabar Ltd. does not store this information.
Choice/Opt-out
We provide you the opportunity to ‘opt-out’
of having your personally identifiable information used
for certain purposes, when we ask for this information.
For example, if you purchase a product/service but do not
wish to receive any additional marketing material from us,
you can indicate your preference on our order form.
If you no longer wish to receive our newsletter and promotional
communications, you may opt-out of receiving them by following
the instructions included in each newsletter or communication
or by emailing us at customerservice@malabar.net.
Log
Files
As is true of most websites, we gather certain information
automatically and store it in log files. This information
includes internet protocol (IP) addresses, browser type,
internet service provider (ISP), referring/exit pages, operating
system, date/time stamp, and clickstream data.
We use this information, which does not identify individual
users, to analyze trends, to administer the site, to track
users’ movements around the site and to gather demographic
information about our user base as a whole.
We do not link this automatically-collected data to personally
identifiable information.
Email
Lists
We
do keep an email list, but we will not add you to it without
your expressed permission, nor will we share this information
with any third parties. We use this list to send out periodic
notices or newsletters. You may unsubscribe at any time,
and your request will be honoured.
Legal
Disclaimer
We reserve the right to disclose your personally identifiable
information as required by law and when we believe that
disclosure is necessary to protect our rights and/or to
comply with a judicial proceeding, court order, or legal
process served on our Web site.
