We do not keep credit card information as part of your product registration.

G4C is the sole owner of the information collected on this site. We will not sell, share, or rent this information to third parties in ways different from what is disclosed in this statement. Unless the user provides it voluntarily, G4C does not collect any personally identifiable information about visitors of the website. Some pages permit visitors to request additional information. Visitors are able to e-mail messages to G4C that will contain the user's name and e-mail address, as well as any additional information the user may wish to include in the message. G4C uses the information visitors provide about themselves to fulfill those visitors' requests. E-mail addresses are used to answer messages received only.
3.0 Information Collected During Registration
During registration of products online (after purchase), users specify limited information about them. G4C may use this information to provide notices of new information that may be of use or interest to users. This may include newsletters, tutorials, website update notices, or notification on the availability of new products, and product updates. We will not sell, share, or rent this information to others. Occasionally a user may be asked to provide a statement, provide a reference, authorize a quote or testimonial, or participate in a press release or case study. No user is obligated to provide any details about the product or its use. No statements will be taken or used without prior written consent.
We use information about you for purposes of monitoring and improving our internal operations, as well as to ensure we: (i) bill you properly, (ii) administer your account in accordance with your agreements with us, and (iii) properly perform the services you have requested.
We also use the information we collect to monitor and improve our internal operations, as well as to improve the experience of users on our site(s). For example, we may correlate Web site traffic information with data about individual users. This data helps us to determine how much our customers use parts of the site, allowing us to enhance it to fit the needs of as many of our customers as possible. We may also break down overall usage statistics according to customers' domain names, browser types, and MIME types by reading this information from the browser string (information contained in every user's browser).

This privacy statement applies solely to information collected by the G4C website.
6.0 Security
The information we receive from or about you is stored on systems designed to prevent the loss, misuse, unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration or destruction of that information. Transmission of sensitive information is encrypted to PayPal and G4C (e.g., credit card numbers, account passwords) in the interest of heightened privacy protection and information integrity. Transactions within PayPal and purchase flows use Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) encryption when transmitting data from your connection to their systems.

Given the nature of the Internet and the fact that no security system is perfect, G4C cannot promise that the information you provide will never be obtained by unauthorized persons. G4C does, however, utilize industry-standard practices to protect your personally identifiable information from loss, misuse, alteration and destruction. Such measures include using firewalls and security layers to protect certain sensitive transmissions of information. In some areas of our website, we require a user ID and password for you to access certain information. G4C will not disclose such passwords to third parties; however, you are responsible for maintaining the privacy and security of your password.
