Security and Privacy Policy

Your trust and satisfaction are our first priorities. We know your privacy is very important and that is why we take special care to safeguard the confidentiality and security of your information.

How Do We Protect the Information You Provide?
We use industry-standard Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) encryption to safeguard all sensitive data transmitted to us. This means that your personal information - including credit card number, name, expiration date, and billing information - is encrypted so that it cannot be read by anyone else. SMAVtronics, LLC is a Shopify Secure Site. The Shopify seal on any page allows you to confirm that we are who we say we are and that all the information you provide will be protected every time you use our service.

What Information Do We Collect?
When you visit our site, our server automatically collects non-personally identifiable information - your internet service provider address and information on the pages you access on our site. In addition, we store information you provide when you make a purchase or enter your e-mail address.

How Do We Collect the Information?
Like many Internet sites, we use "cookies" to recognize returning customers. Cookies are small pieces of information that are stored by your browser on your computer's hard drive. We use the cookies to recognize your preferences and to keep track of items you've added to your shopping cart.

What Do We Do with the Information We Collect?
1. By evaluating how customers use our site, we can offer better content, easier navigation, and better checkout services.

2. If you join our mailing list, we will offer you updates about new products and services, discounts and special promotions. You can join or leave our mailing list at any time. Customers who supply us with a telephone number will only receive calls from us pertaining to orders they have placed.

3. We use customer information in processing transactions both within our company and with third party vendors. Our third party vendors are, by contract, restricted from using your information in any way, except to help us provide the products and services we offer you on our site.

Refer-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. “smavtronics.com” does not store this information and uses it for the sole purpose of sending this one-time email.

Our Use of Log Files
When you visit our site we may automatically log your IP address, your browser type and your access times. We utilize this information to conduct site performance evaluations, to see where visitors are coming from and to keep track of click stream data (the screens our users visit on our site).
