you are using, (e.g., Mac OS or Windows) and the domain name of your Internet

How
We Use the Information
We
may use the information you provide about yourself to fulfill your requests
for our products, programs, and services, to respond to your inquiries about
our offerings, and to offer you other products, programs or services that
we believe may be of interest to you.
We
sometimes use the non-personally identifiable information that we collect
to improve the design and content of our site and to enable us to personalize
your Internet experience. We also may use this information in the aggregate
to analyze site usage, as well as to offer you products, programs, or services.
We
may disclose personally identifiable information in response to legal process,
for example, in response to a court order or a subpoena. We also may disclose
such information in response to a law enforcement agency's request.
Agents
and contractors of The Mac Authority who have access to personally identifiable
information are required to protect this information in a manner that is
consistent with this Privacy Notice by, for example, not using the information
for any purpose other than to carry out the services they are performing
for Shoreline.
Although
we take appropriate measures to safeguard against unauthorized disclosures
of information, we cannot assure you that personally identifiable information
that we collect will never be disclosed in a manner that is inconsistent
with this Privacy Notice.
Cookies
To
enhance your experience with our sites, many of our web pages use "cookies."
Cookies are text files we place in your computer's browser to store your
preferences. Cookies, by themselves, do not tell us your e-mail address
or other personally identifiable information unless you choose to provide
this information to us by, for example, registering at one of our sites.
However, once you choose to furnish the site with personally identifiable
information, this information may be linked to the data stored in the cookie.
We
use cookies to understand site usage and to improve the content and offerings
on our sites. For example, we may use cookies to personalize your experience
at our web pages (e.g. to recognize you by name when you return to our site).
Our
Commitment to Security
We
have put in place appropriate physical, electronic, and managerial procedures
to safeguard and help prevent unauthorized access, maintain data security,
and correctly use the information we collect online.
