MY ACCOUNT REGISTRATION
In order to place an order from the Website, a customer may first complete an account registration form. During registration a customer is required to give certain information (such as name, telephone number, email address and billing/shipping address). This information is used to contact you about the products/services on our Website in which you have expressed interest. At your option, you may also provide demographic information (such as gender or age) about yourself, but it is not required.
ORDERS
We request information from you on our order form. To buy from us, you must provide contact information (like name and shipping address) and financial information (like credit/debit card number, security code and expiration date). This information is used for billing purposes only and to fill your orders. If we have trouble processing an order, we will use the telephone and email information as provided to contact you.
SECURITY
We take precautions to protect your information. When you submit sensitive information via the Website, your information is protected both online and offline.
Wherever we collect sensitive information (such as credit card data), that information is encrypted and transmitted to us in a secure way. You can verify this by looking for a closed lock icon at the bottom of your web browser, or looking for “https” at the beginning of the address of the web page.
While we use encryption to protect sensitive information transmitted online, we also protect your information offline. Only employees who need the information to perform a specific job (e.g. billing or customer service) are granted access to personally identifiable information. The computers/servers on which we store personally identifiable information are kept in a secure environment.
COOKIES
We use “cookies” on this site. A cookie is a piece of data stored on a site visitor’s hard drive to help us improve your access to our site and identify repeat visitors to our site. For instance, when we use a cookie to identify you, you would not have to log in a password more than once, thereby saving time while on our site. Cookies can also enable us to track and target the interests of our users to enhance their experience on our site. Usage of a cookie is in no way linked to any personally identifiable information on our site.
Some of our business partners may use cookies on our site (e.g., advertisers). However, we have no access to or control over those cookies.
Articles on this site may include embedded content (e.g. videos, images, articles, etc.). Embedded content from other websites behaves in the exact same way as if the visitor has visited the other website.
These websites may collect data about you, use cookies, embed additional third-party tracking, and monitor your interaction with that embedded content, including tracking your interaction with the embedded content if you have an account and are logged in to that website.
LINKS
This Website contains links to other sites. Please be aware that we are not responsible for the content or privacy practices of such other sites. We encourage our users to be aware when they leave our Website and to read the privacy statements of any other site that collects personally identifiable information.
SURVEYS, SWEEPSTAKES, CONTESTS & OTHER PROMOTIONS
From time-to-time our Website requests information via surveys, sweepstakes, contests and other promotions. Participation in these surveys, sweepstakes, contests and other promotions is completely voluntary and you may choose whether or not to participate and therefore disclose this information. Information requested may include contact information (such as name and shipping address), and demographic information (such as zip code and age). Contact information will be used to notify the winners and award prizes. Survey information will be used for purposes of monitoring or improving the use and satisfaction of this Website.

Any changes made to the Privacy Statement shall become effective when posted on our Website. Your use of any services provided to you at our Website following the date of the last update shall serve as your acceptance to the revised Privacy Statement.

SENSITIVE DATA
Unless specifically requested by Tubb Starr, we ask that you not provide to us any personal sensitive data (e.g., your social security number, criminal background, political or religious beliefs, views or opinions) through or at this Website.
PRIVACY PREFERENCES
Tubb Starr respects your privacy. We want to provide you with options, information and choices so that you can select your preference of how much information you share with us and how and when you wish to hear from us.
We seek to use reasonable organizational, technical and administrative measures to protect your Personal Data. Unfortunately, no data transmission or storage system can be guaranteed to be 100% secure.
