Privacy Policy and Agreement

HS respects and is committed to protecting your privacy. That is why we have adopted this Privacy Policy. This Privacy Policy lets you know how your personal information is processed and used. We promise that we will take steps to use your personal information only in ways that are compatible with this Privacy Policy. The following policies are only in effect for the Web pages, newsletters, discussion lists and opt-in announcement lists owned and operated by HS, LLC, and its wholly owned subsidiaries. The following discloses our Privacy Policy.

What information are you collecting, how are you collecting it, and how do you use it?

We do not collect and evaluate visitor information for specific individuals. Our Web servers do not automatically record e-mail addresses of our visitors. If you send us e-mail we will receive your reply-to address. This address will be used only in connection with our correspondence with you.

Every computer connected to the Internet is given a set of numbers, that serve as that computer's "Internet Protocol" or "IP" address. When a visitor requests a page from any Web sites, our Web servers automatically recognize that visitor's IP address and, if assigned, that computers "Domain Name". The domain name and IP address reveal nothing personal about you other than the IP address from which you have accessed our site. We use this information to investigate misuse of the HS Web site as described in the section "Will you disclose the information you do collect to outside third parties?" appearing on this page.

Will you disclose the information you do collect to outside third parties?

HS will disclose personal information and/or an IP address, when required by law or in the good-faith belief that such action is necessary to:
  1. Cooperate with the investigations of purported unlawful activities and conform to the edicts of the law or comply with legal process served on HS,
  2. Protect and defend the rights or property of the HS Network of sites and related properties, or visitors to the HS Network of sites and related properties,
  3. Identify persons who may be violating the law, the HS legal notice and Web site User Agreement, the rights of third parties, or otherwise misusing the HS or its related properties,

What are cookies and does HS use them?

A cookie is a small piece of data that is stored on your computer's hard drive by your browser. A cookie can't read data off of your computer hard disk or read cookie files created by other Web sites. Cookies do not damage your system; some cookies, however, are used by "Spyware" programs to track your computer activity. IF A VISITOR'S BROWSER HAS COOKIES ENABLED THIS VERSION OF THE HELM SADDLES, LLC, WEB SITE USES A COOKIE TO STORE USER PREFERENCES, SAVE CERTAIN KINDS OF WORK SUCH AS PARTIALLY FILLED OUT FORMS, AND TIME STAMPS. The use of this cookie is optional; without it certain usability features are disabled thereby slightly diminishing the user experience.

How do you use single-pixel gifs?

HS uses a single-pixel "gif" file (called "spacer.gif") in order to achieve an attractive layout for certain non-standards compliant web browsers. NO INFORMATION IS GATHERED WITH HS_SPACER0.GIF.

Advertisers often use single-pixel gif images, sometimes referred to as tracking pixels, web bugs or web beacons, to count Web page accesses, read cookie information, or gather general statistical information. HELM SADDLES,LLC, DOES NOT GATHER PERSONAL INFORMATION THROUGH THE USE OF THESE IMAGES.

What other information do you request?

We may also request your e-mail address or mailing address for the purposes of conducting a survey or to provide additional services (for example, subscriptions to e-mail newsletters, announcement lists or information about conferences and trade shows). Whenever we request the identity of a visitor, we will clearly indicate the purpose of the inquiry before the information is requested. We maintain a strict "No-Spam" policy that means that we do not sell, rent, or otherwise give your e-mail address to a third-party, without your consent or as permitted by this Privacy Policy.

We may from time to time send e-mail announcing important events of new HS products and services. Except as stated above, HS will not send you e-mail that you have not agreed to receive.

What else should I know about my privacy when online?

The HS Web sites may contain hyperlinks to third party Web sites. HS is not responsible for the privacy practices or the content of such third party Web sites or advertisers. HS does not share any of the individual personal information you provide HS with the third parties to which HS links, except as stated elsewhere within this Privacy Policy, although HS may share general, aggregate data with such third parties (such as how many people use our site). Please check with those Web sites to determine their privacy policy.

Please keep in mind that whenever you voluntarily disclose personal information online - for example through e-mail, discussion lists, or elsewhere - that information can be collected and used by others. In short, if you post personal information online that is accessible to the public, you may receive unsolicited messages from other parties in return.

Ultimately, you are solely responsible for maintaining the secrecy of your personal information. Please be careful and responsible whenever you're online.

Your Consent To This Privacy Agreement

By using the HS Web site, you consent to the collection and use of information by HS as specified above. If we decide to change our privacy policy, we will post those changes on this page so that you are always aware of what information we collect, how we use it, and under what circumstances we disclose it.

Please send any questions about HS's Privacy Policy to: webmaster@helmsaddles.com

Please note that your use of the HS Web site is governed by our Terms Of Use.
