We collect IP addresses and related information for the purposes of system administration, to assess the traffic to the Site, and to maintain and improve the Site. For security purposes, we may link account information you enter when you purchase products on the Site to the originating IP address, but we do not otherwise link IP addresses to your personally identifiable information.

This Privacy Policy does not apply to any information collected from you through such links or that you may provide on the websites you reach by those links.

We may also provide your Personal Information to third parties who are service providers to us, for example third parties who provide computer-related, credit card processing, mapping, or debt collection services. These third parties will only use your Personal Information as directed by us for our business purposes.

LONG also works with third parties to jointly provide you with certain products or services (we call these third parties “external business partners”). We may provide your Personal Information to our external business partners.

We may also share your information if we merge with, or if we or any of our assets are sold to, another company.

We may also share anonymized data derived from your Personal Information with researchers performing studies in areas relevant to our business. When we do so, we take reasonable steps to anonymize your Personal Information such that it can no longer be used to identify you.

We do not sell or lease your Personal Information.

Our use of your Personal Information for legal purposes. Sometimes a law, court order or other judicial or administrative process requires us to provide information to a government authority or party to a private lawsuit. We will provide the information that we in good faith believe is required to comply with the law, order, or other process. We may also disclose certain information if:

  • we are required to bring, or defend against, litigation or any regulatory proceeding between, or relating to, you and us,
  • we have reason to believe that disclosing this information is necessary to identify, contact, or bring legal action against someone who may have breached our Site Terms of Use or who may be causing injury to or interference with (either intentionally or unintentionally) our rights or property, other Site users or anyone else who could be harmed by such activities, or
  • we believe in good faith that the law requires it.

Information Transfer. Your Personal Information may be transferred to, stored, and processed in a country other than the one in which it was provided. When we do so, we transfer the information in compliance with applicable data protection laws.

We take steps to protect Personal Information no matter what country it is stored in or transferred to. We have procedures and controls as appropriate to help ensure this.

DATA SECURITY

We take appropriate steps that we believe are reasonable to protect the security of your Personal Information on our system, both internally and from outsiders, and to ensure the integrity of the data we collect. We use a combination of technological, physical and policy methods to protect this data such as, for example, requiring a password to access our network and employing firewall security.

You are responsible for maintaining the secrecy of your passwords and any account information. Please be aware that we will never ask you for your password in an unsolicited phone call or e-mail. We do not provide your password to third parties.

ACCESS, INTEGRITY & CHOICE

Access & Integrity. If you believe that the Personal Information you voluntarily provided us is, or has become, inaccurate, incomplete or untimely, contact us and provide additional or corrected information. You may also contact us to inquire as to what Personal Information about you we possess. We reserve the right to charge a reasonable fee to cover our costs in responding to such requests (if such a fee is otherwise allowed by law). We also reserve the right to disregard unreasonable or abusive requests, and we reserve the right, but do not assume any obligation, to verify your identity prior to responding to any such request.

Choice. When you provide Personal Information to us, you consent to our using that information as described in this Privacy Policy.

If you do not want us to use or continue using your Personal Information to communicate with you, you may request that we not do so (opt-out) by following the procedures described below.

  • Opting-Out after Signup: If you wish to discontinue any further promotional communications from us, please send your opt-out request to this address. Place the word “UNSUBSCRIBE” in your request to us.
  • Digital / Electronic Communications: You can also stop receiving promotional email messages from us by following the instructions provided in any such message you receive.

Continued Use of Your Personal Information Despite Opt-Out. Because it is essential that we have and use personal information about you in order to provide you with products and services you order from us, we will continue to use personal information to facilitate a transaction that you initiate. In addition, even if you opt-out, we will retain your personal information for our internal use, such as internal business analytics and legal compliance. We will also retain your personal information in order to contact you for non-promotional purposes regarding your use of our service.
