Information We Collect
Tracking Technology: Quickstore24™ logs
IP addresses (a unique number assigned to every computer
on the Internet) in order to improve security, analyze
trends and administer the Site. We may track your movement
within the Site, the pages from which you were referred,
access times and browser types. We only use this information
in aggregate and do not link it to you personally unless
you opt in as a customer. To gauge the effectiveness of
our Site, we do collect some generic information about
our visitors. Our web servers automatically recognize a
visitor's domain name, the web page from which a visitor
enters our Site, which pages a visitor visits on our Site,
and how much time a visitor spends on each page. We may
use anonymous tracking technologies to collect, store and
sometimes track information for statistical purposes and
to improve the products and services we provide. We aggregate
this information and use it to evaluate and improve our
Site. We store information that we collect through cookies,
log files, clear gifs, and/or third party sources for instance
to verify your address or update your information and to
create a “profile” of your preferences. We
tie your personally identifiable information to information
in the profile, in order to provide tailored promotions
and marketing offers and to improve the content of the
Site for you. A cookie is a small text file that
is stored on a user’s computer for record-keeping
purposes. We use cookies on this Site. We use session ID
cookies and persistent cookies. We use session cookies
to make it easier for you to navigate our Site. A session
ID cookie expires when you close you browser. A persistent
cookie remains on your hard drive for an extended period
of time. You can remove persistent cookies by following
directions provided in your Internet browser’s “help” file
Persistent cookies are used to differentiate subscribers
from non-subscribers to customize the content of certain
sections of the website and enable us to track and target
the interests of our users to enhance the experience on
our Site. If you reject cookies, you may still use our
Site, but your ability to use some areas of our Site, such
as promotions or surveys, may be limited.
Surveys or Promotions:
From time to time we may provide you the opportunity to
participate in sweepstakes or other promotions on our Site,
which might be sponsored or conducted by a third party. If
you participate, we will request certain personally identifiable
information from you. Participation in these sweepstakes
is completely voluntary and you therefore have a choice
whether or not to disclose this information. The
requested information typically includes contact information.
If there is a third party sponsor involved please make
sure to review that party’s privacy policy.
Tell-A-Friend: We may from
time to time conduct a referral service to introduce people
you know to our Site and services. 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. Quickstore24™ stores
this information for the purpose of sending this one-time
email and tracking the success of our referral program.
Your friend may contact us at Custserv@quickstore24.com to

Information
Gathered From our ThumbPass™ Program
When you use our ThumbPass™ Program
at our Quickstore24™ Machines we will store (1) the 10 digit
number you provide which will be your account number and
(2) your ThumbPass™ which is created for you based on a
scanned picture taken of your thumb at our Quickstore24™
Machines which is not retained or stored. That scan is
simultaneously stored solely as a calculation based upon
minutiae points from your thumb: a photograph or scan of
your thumb or thumbprint is not stored or maintained as
an image at any time. Minutiae points are local ridge characteristics
that occur at either a ridge bifurcation or a ridge ending
on your thumb. These minutiae points collectively
create a signature, which are stored locally on the machine
and again in the central database. It is the ThumbPass™ in
conjunction with the 10 digit account number you provide
that we will store and use to identify you back to your
account.
Registration and Authentication: When
you register with us on the Site, you are required to submit
an e-mail address (which is your user id for the Site)
and password. Additional information may be included in
your registration profile such as name, address and billing
information. At registration, you are given the opportunity
to specify your privacy preferences. As described below,
you may change these preferences at any time.
Customer Service Correspondence:
We may collect information that identifies you personally
when you submit comments, questions or suggestions to our
Customer Service department.
Use of Your Personal and Non-Personal
Information
Aggregate Information: We
collect Aggregate Information about you and your use of
our Site whenever you visit us online. For instance, we
may collect various forms of "click stream" information
such as entry and exit points for our Site (i.e., referring
URLs or domains), site traffic statistics, page views,
impressions, and operating system and browser type. In
addition, when users request pages on our Site, our servers
automatically log their IP addresses. An IP address is
a number that is automatically assigned to your computer
whenever you are surfing the Web. We also use third-party
software that tracks traffic directed to Quickstore24.com™ from
affiliate Web sites and the purchases that result from
this traffic. This information is aggregated and is not
tied to an individual purchase. Your ThumbPass™ will
not be shared with any third parties.
Vendors: We employ other
companies and individuals to perform functions on our behalf.
Examples might include fulfilling orders, sending e-mail,
removing repetitive information from customer lists, analyzing
data, providing marketing assistance, providing search
results and links and providing customer service. They
have access to personal information needed to perform their
functions, but may not use it for other purposes.
Service-related Announcements:
We will send you strictly service-related announcements
on rare occasions when it is necessary to do so. For
instance, if our service is temporarily suspended for maintenance,
or the delivery of a service or product is delayed we might
send you an email, or if there is some service issue with
something you might have ordered. Generally, you may not
opt-out of these communications, which are not promotional
in nature. If you do not wish to receive them, you
have the option to cancel your account with us at Customer
Service.
Co-Branded Service Offerings: We
may share your personally identifiable information with
certain businesses with whom Quickstore24™ has formed
a strategic alliance. You will be able to identify these
businesses because Quickstore24™ has authorized them
to display co-branded Web pages or links to Quickstore24.com™.
These strategic partners are requested to clearly state
their own privacy policies on their own web sites or promotional
materials. If you do not want to have your personal information
shared with these businesses you may adjust your preferences
in your account at any time.
Third Party Offers: We
Share Personally Identifiable Information with Third Parties
in order to have them send you special offers and promotions
that we think you might find of interest to you. We will
also occasionally send you information on products, services,
special deals, or promotions, which we have found that
are of interest to our readers. If you do not want
Quickstore24™ to use the information you provide in order
to inform you of products and services that might be of
interest to you, or to provide your information to third
party companies you can adjust your preferences at any
time.
Exceptional Circumstances:
If Quickstore24™, or any of its lines of businesses or affiliated
companies, is sold or disposed of as a going concern, whether
by merger, sale of assets or otherwise, the relevant customer
database of Quickstore24™ could, in whole or in part, be
sold as part of that transaction. In such transactions,
personal information will be subject to the promises made
in any pre-existing Privacy Policy in effect when the information
was obtained. We also may have to release personally identifying
information when it is necessary to comply with judicial
or other government subpoenas, warrants, orders, or to
protect the rights, property, or safety of Quickstore24™
or others. This includes exchanging information with
other companies and organizations for fraud protection
