Privacy Policy


At PerrKnight.com, we are committed to protecting your privacy and to utilizing technology that gives you the most powerful and secure online experience. You can visit most of our Web Site without giving us any information about yourself, but sometimes we do need personal, including financial, information about you to provide services or products that you request. Because of this, we maintain physical, electronic and procedural safeguards to protect the information we collect about you. This Privacy Policy explains our policies concerning the collection and use of your personal information.

Personal Information
Please be assured that we do not sell personal information about you to third parties, or share your personal information with third parties for their marketing purposes. When you place an order, request a catalog or participate in a promotion or contest, we ask you to provide information including your name, postal address, e-mail address and, in the case of product orders, credit card information. Except to verify credit card information to complete your order, we do not use or release any credit card or financial information for any purpose. If you provide us with your postal address, e-mail address or telephone number, you may receive our catalog or other promotional mailings, e-mails or telephone calls. If you do not wish to receive e-mail from us, simply send us an e-mail containing your exact e-mail address in the body text at editor@jiops.com or follow the unsubscribe instructions set forth at the bottom of each e-mail. If you do not wish to receive our catalog, other promotional mailings or telephone calls, please write to us at the address set forth below. We will be happy to respect your request not to participate in our direct marketing programs.

We do not share e-mail names collected on our Web Site for purposes of permitting other companies to market to you through e-mail. Providing us your e-mail address will not result in your receiving unsolicited commercial e-mail from any third party. We sometimes use your information to send you e-mail or postal mail to alert you to product upgrades, special offers, updated information and other new services from PerrKnight.com.

We also collect information to make our Web Site easier for you to use by not making you enter your personal information more than once and to monitor the performance of our Web Site. In some cases this involves the use of cookies – small bits of data which are stored on your computer. If you wish you can prevent your computer from receiving cookies, however doing so may limit the functionality we can provide you when you visit our Web Site.

The personally identifying information you provide us and information regarding your order may be disclosed to certain third parties that assist us in the ordinary course of business, subject to appropriate confidentiality agreements. These vendors may include (but are not limited to) our printer, common carriers, mail list and market analysis bureaus, credit card or leasing companies and in some cases the manufacturers of the product you purchase. We will only provide those companies with the information they need to deliver the product and/or service you have requested, and they are prohibited from using that information for any other purpose.

Perr&Knight.com, this Web Site, Perr&Knight., or any of its family of companies and web sites; (c) protect and defend the rights or property of Perr&Knight.com, Perr&Knight and its family of companies and web sites, and, (d) act in urgent circumstances to protect the personal safety of users of PerrKnight.com, its Web Sites, or the public.

Security of your Personal Information
PerrKnight.com strictly protects the security of your personal information and honors your choices for its intended use. We carefully protect your data from loss, misuse, unauthorized access or disclosure, alteration, or destruction.

We do not share your personal information outside the company without your permission, except under conditions explained in this Privacy Policy Statement. Inside the company, data is stored in password-controlled servers with limited access. Employees who have access to such information are trained in the proper handling of such information and are subject to our disciplinary procedures for any violation of our privacy policy.

You have a significant role to play in protecting your information. No one can see or edit your personal information without knowing your password. You should not share your password with others or store it where others can gain access to it. If at any time you discover that any information which we maintain about you is in any way incorrect, please notify us immediately.

Visitors from our Affiliates
When you enter our Web Site via a link from another Web Site, it is possible that the other Web Site is an affiliate participating in our Affiliate Program. Under this program, we are required to disclose information regarding the purchases you complete on our Web Site to our Affiliates. If you do not want us to disclose such information to the affiliate site, you must enter our Web Site directly rather than via a link.

Electronic Communications
When you visit PerrKnight.com or send e-mails to us, you are communicating with us electronically. You consent to receive communications from us electronically.

You agree that all agreements, notices, disclosures and other communications that we provide to you electronically satisfy any and all legal requirements that such communications be in writing.

Any information disclosed will be in the form of aggregate data, such as overall patterns or demographic reports that do not describe or identify any individual user.

Transmission Errors or Unauthorized Acts
Although we will use all reasonable efforts to safeguard the confidentiality of your personal information, transmissions made by means of the Internet cannot be made absolutely secure. We will not be liable for disclosures of your personal information due to errors in transmission or unauthorized acts of third parties.

In the event that either of our Web Sites become owned or controlled by other individuals or entities, the information we have collected may be transferred to such party or parties. In that case, such individuals or entities will follow this Privacy Policy in the place of our Web Sites’ current owners.
