What Personal Information About Customers Does Bowlingindex.com Gather?
The information we learn from customers helps us personalize and continually improve your shopping experience at Bowlingindex.com. Here are the types of information we gather.

This information might include your name, billing address, shipping address, telephone number, email address, credit card information and product details. With this information, Bowlingindex.com can fill your orders and better provide you with personal services.

Does Bowlingindex.com Share the Information It Receives?
Information about our customers is an important part of our business, and we are not in the business of selling it to others.

Ordering

When you order from us, we collect personally identifiable information from you. If you order one or more of our products or services, we will collect and maintain your name, e-mail address, billing address, shipping address, telephone number, product selections, order number and a password. We collect this, and other information, as disclosed in this Policy, in order to fill your order, to communicate with you about your order and to send you promotional materials. Before confirming your order, you will have the opportunity to review your shopping basket and make changes and additions to the information it contained and these changes will automatically be kept for future use.

Gift Certificates

If you purchase a gift certificate from our site, you will give us the recipient’s name and e-mail address if you wish to send the certificate by e-mail. If you wish to send a certificate by regular mail, you will give us the name, mailing information and phone number for the recipient. The recipient information you give us will only be used to send the gift certificate and for no other purpose.

How Secure Is Information About Me?

We work to protect the security of your information during transmission by using Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) software, which encrypts information you input.
We reveal only the 1st four digits of your credit card numbers when confirming an order. Of course, we transmit the entire credit card number to the appropriate credit card company during order processing.
It is important for you to protect against unauthorized access to your password and to your computer. Be sure to sign off when finished using a shared computer.
What security precautions are in place to protect against the loss, misuse, or alteration of your information?

In order to most efficiently serve you, credit card transactions and order fulfillment are handled by established third party banking, processing agents and distribution institutions. They receive the information needed to verify and authorize your credit card or other payment information. Within Bowlingindex.com, your information is kept on password protected, limited access servers. Wherever possible and applicable, Bowlingindex.com servers reside behind a corporate firewall that maintains and controls on access to the system from both our internal network and the Internet.
