What Do We Collect and Why?

You may browse our site without providing us with any information that is identifiable.

Registration Form

Registration forms on our site may require you to give us your contact information (i.e., name and email address), financial information (i.e., credit card numbers), and demographic information (i.e., zip code and state). We use this contact information from the registration form to send you information about our company at your request. Your contact information is also used to contact you when necessary for additional information or to process or fulfill your request. Demographic and profile data may also be collected. We use this data to help us improve this website and our product and service offerings.

Order Form

Our site uses an order form for you to request information, products, and services. We collect your contact information (i.e., email address), financial information (i.e., credit card numbers), and demographic information (i.e., zip code and state). We use this contact information from the order form to send you a confirmation email for which you cannot opt out. We also use this information to send you your orders, as well as information about our company and products and special promotions. Your contact information is also used to get in touch with you when necessary for additional information to process or fulfill your order. Financial information that is collected is used to bill you for products and services. Financial information is not retained or stored as part of your shopping profile, so you must enter your credit card number each time you place an order. Unique identifiers are collected from website visitors to verify their identities and for use as account numbers in our record system. Demographic and profile data is also collected at our site. We use this data to help us improve our website and our product and service offerings.

Shipping

We use an outside delivery company (UPS) to ship our orders. This company does not retain, share, store, or use personally identifiable information for any other purposes.

Surveys and Sweepstakes/Contests

From time to time, we conduct online surveys to help us better understand and serve your needs, or we conduct sweepstakes or contests. These offers may ask for contact information (i.e., email address), financial information (i.e., credit card numbers), and demographic information (i.e., zip code, age, or income level). We may use this contact data from our surveys to send you information about our company. Unique identifiers are collected from the website to verify your identity. We use this data to help us improve our website and our product and service offerings.

Information From Other Sources

For reasons such as improving personalization of our service (i.e., providing better product recommendations or special offers that we think will interest you), we might receive information about you from other sources and add it to our account information. We also sometimes receive updated delivery and address information from our shippers or other sources so that we can correct our records and send your next purchase or communication more easily.

Sharing With Third Parties

In the unlikely event that PEI, or substantially all of its assets, are acquired or merged with another company, customer information will be one of the transferred assets.

Business Transitions

In the event PEI goes through a business transition such as a merger, acquisition by another company, or sale of all or a portion of its assets, your personally identifiable information will likely be among the assets transferred. You will be notified via email, and a prominent notice will be displayed on our website for 30 days of any such change in ownership or control of your personal information.

Information collected on this website from those who have elected to receive offers from business partners of PEI is made available to such business partners. The information provided includes: name, address, gender, product(s) purchased, and order of purchase. However, we do not sell your email address and we do not allow telemarketing of our lists by third parties. We release account and other personal information when we believe release is appropriate to comply with laws or to protect the rights, property, or safety of PEI, our users, or others. This includes exchanging information with other companies and organizations for fraud protection and credit risk reduction.
