As such, we have established and implemented this privacy statement to inform visitors and users of the Site how we use and protect the information we collect. If you have any questions regarding this information or our privacy practices, please see the section entitled “Questions? Contact Us” at the end of this privacy statement. This privacy statement is effective as of April 1, 2007.
WHAT INFORMATION DOES GABRIEL COUZIAN COLLECT?
Gabriel Couzian does not collect personally identifiable information unless our visitors voluntarily provide it to us. We do, however, collect certain types of information and ask for personal information in certain circumstances, such as when you place an order or become a member. The following sections describe what type of information we collect, when we collect it and how we use it.
PURCHASING PRODUCTS / SETTING UP AN ACCOUNT

When you purchase products and/or create an account, we require you to provide us your name, telephone number, e-mail address, home and billing address, credit card information and a password for accessing your account.

COOKIES
Cookies are small bits of electronic information that a web site can transfer to a visitor’s hard drive to help tailor and keep records of his or her visit to the site. The use of cookies is standard on the Internet and many web sites use them. Cookies allow web site operators to better customize visits to the site to the visitor’s individual preferences. For example, by setting a cookie you would not have to log in a password more than once, thereby saving time. We currently save password information in cookies, however, we do not receive or record any personal information in the cookies we use.
Although most Web browsers automatically accept cookies, you can usually change your browser to prevent that or to notify you when you are sent a cookie. Even without accepting a cookie, you can still access your Gabriel Couzian account. However, to access your account, you will have to re-enter your user name and password each time you visit the Site.
CUSTOMER SERVICE
We provide customer service support through telephone and e-mail. In order to provide customer support, we will ask for your e-mail address. Aside from this information, we do not ask for any personal information to provide customer support. We only use information received from customer support requests, including e-mail addresses, for customer support services and we do not transfer or share this information with any third parties.
HOW DO WE USE THE INFORMATION YOU PROVIDE US?
As stated above, we use your personal information such as your name, address, billing and mailing address and credit card number for billing purposes when we charge you for the purchase of products. We also will use your e-mail address to contact you when we provide customer support.
In addition, we may also use your e-mail address to send you information on updates to the Gabriel Couzian products from time to time. To opt out of receiving these e-mails, please see the section below titled “How do you opt out?”
We may also provide information about our visitors and account holders to outside parties from time to time. For further details, please see the section below titled “Does Gabriel Couzian disclose the information it collects to outside parties?”
HOW DOES GABRIEL COUZIAN PROTECT CUSTOMER INFORMATION?
We implement a variety of security measures to ensure the security of your personal information on our systems. User personal information is contained behind secured networks and is only accessible by a limited number of individuals who have special access rights to such systems. Any credit card information you supply us is transmitted and protected via Secure Socket Layer technology (“SSL”) and then stored into our databases to be accessed only as stated above.
DOES GABRIEL COUZIAN DISCLOSE THE INFORMATION IT COLLECTS TO OUTSIDE PARTIES?
Gabriel Couzian does not currently sell, trade, or otherwise transfer outside the company personally identifiable information that account holders voluntarily provide in any account registration. This information is used to better understand how account holders use the Site, to support related transactions made on the site, and to better know our visitors and possibly tailor any specific promotions, or other notifications to them. Should you change your mind about the information you’ve provided to us, should you no longer wish to receive information from us, or should your information change, we have provided a way for you to correct, update or remove the personal data you gave us. For further details please see the section below titled “How do you change the information we have for you?”
In the event Gabriel Couzian goes through a business transition, such as a merger, being acquired by another company, or selling a portion of its assets, account holders’ information will, in most instances, be part of the assets transferred. Visitors and account holders will be notified via prominent notice on the Site for 30 days prior to a change of ownership or control of information of users held by us. If as a result of the business transition, information will be used for a purpose different from that stated, or implied, at the time of collection users will be given a choice consistent with our notification of changes section.
Notwithstanding any other term of this privacy statement, we may release any personal information we obtain or collect when we believe its release is appropriate to comply with the law, enforce our Site policies, or protect ours or others’ rights, property, or safety.
INDIVIDUALS UNDER 13 YEARS OF AGE
Pursuant to the provisions of the 1998 Federal Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act (“COPPA”), our policy is to refuse individuals under the age of 13 years of age to submit information to the Site or to become Gabriel Couzian account holders. We therefore do not knowingly collect personal information from individuals under the age of 13 years of age. If you are under 13 years of age, you are not permitted to sign up a Gabriel Couzian account.
HOW DO YOU OPT OUT?
In order to opt of receiving e-mail notifications and updates, please access the “My Account” area of the Site and you may select the “Do not send me e-mail updates and notifications” option.
HOW DO YOU CHANGE THE INFORMATION WE HAVE FOR YOU?
To modify the information that we have on file for your account, simply log in and access the “Account Settings” section, then update your details as necessary. If you wish to remove your account, please contact Gabriel Couzian Customer Service.
THIRD PARTY LINKS AND CO-BRAND RELATIONSHIPS
In an attempt to provide increased value to our visitors, we may choose various third party web sites to link to, and frame within, the Site. We may also participate in co-branding and other relationships to offer e-commerce and other services and features to our visitors and account holders. However, even if the third party is affiliated with us, we have no control over these linked sites, each of which has separate privacy and data collection practices independent of us. Data collected by our co-brand partners or third party web sites (even if offered on or through our site) may not be received by us. As such, we have no responsibility or liability for these independent policies or actions, and are not responsible for the privacy practices or the content of any such web sites. These linked sites are only for your convenience and you therefore access them at your own risk. Nonetheless, we seek to protect the integrity of the Gabriel Couzian website and the links placed upon each of them, and therefore request any feedback on not only the Gabriel Couzian website, but for sites each links to as well (including if a specific link does not work).
SURVEYS
From time-to-time, we may request information from users via surveys. Participation in these surveys is completely voluntary and you therefore have a choice whether or not to disclose this information. Information requested may include contact information (such as your email address), and demographic information (such as interests or age level). Survey information will be used for purposes of monitoring or improving the use and satisfaction of the Gabriel Couzian website and will not be transferred to third parties.
NOTIFICATION OF CHANGES
By visiting the Site or purchasing Gabriel Couzian products, you consent to the collection and use of information by us as set forth in this privacy statement. If we decide to change our privacy statement, we will post those changes within this page so our users are always aware of what information we collect, how we use it, and under what circumstances, if any, we disclose it.
