RealScience Athletics INC., a British Columbia corporation, (“RSA” or “we”) is engaged in the business of selling its RealScience Athletics INC. products and other services over the Internet through its web site, RealScienceAthletics.com, and web sites operated by its active affiliates. As used in this Privacy Policy, the term “Web Site” refers to any web site where this Privacy Policy is posted.

When you access or use this Web Site, RSA may collect personally identifiable information from you, such as your name, address, telephone number, email address, credit card number, and any other information that may identify you (“Personal Information,” as further described below). This Privacy Policy describes the Personal Information we may obtain from you, how we may use or share your Personal Information, and how you can control our collection and use of such Personal Information.

By accessing, using, or providing Personal Information to us through this Web Site, you agree, without limitation or qualification, to be bound by the terms of this Privacy Policy. If you do not agree to the terms of this Privacy Policy, do not access or use this Web Site or provide Personal Information to us through this Web Site.

We reserve the right, in our sole discretion, to modify this Privacy Policy at any time. If we decide to change this Privacy Policy, we will post those changes on our Web Site and update the “Effective Date” at the top of this Privacy Policy so that you can always find out what information we gather, and how we might use that information. We encourage you to periodically review our Privacy Policy to stay informed about how we are using the personal information we collect. Your continued use of this Web Site after any changes have been posted constitutes your agreement to the changes.

The Web Site collects Personal Information from you when you provide it to us. The types of Personal Information we may collect include, without limitation, first and last name, age, street address, city and state, email address, telephone number, gender, birth date, credit card account information, and any other information that may identify you. Examples of areas of the Web Site where we may collect Personal Information include when you make a purchase, complete and submit a registration form to establish an account with us, or complete and submit an application, or participate in a voluntary survey, sweepstakes, or contest.

Registration is an optional service provided by our Web Site. You do not have to register to browse our Web Site, but you do have to register to purchase products on our Web Site. When you register, you may be asked for information such as your name, address, phone number, e-mail address, a password that you select, and your interests, if you choose to register them. We strongly recommend that you do not disclose your password to anyone. RSA will never ask you for your password in any unsolicited communication (including unsolicited correspondence such as letters, phone calls or e-mail messages). Your registration information may be used to help make your online shopping quicker and easier, by pre-filling certain parts of your shopping information. When you register you will have the opportunity to sign up for future marketing information from RSA.

Such information may be recorded and filed by RSA to process your orders. In addition, when you return previously purchased products or request a refund or exchange, you may be asked to give your name, address, driver’s license number, and other identifiable information. RSA collects this information to help prevent fraud and identity theft. If you contact any employee of RSA or any affiliate of RSA, a record of that correspondence may be kept.

Security of Personal Information

We maintain reasonable administrative, technical and physical safeguards to help protect against unauthorized access, use, modification and disclosure of Personal Information in our custody and control. Where possible, we will ask that any third parties to whom we may transfer such information take comparable steps to protect that information. However, even with the best technology, no data transmission over the Internet or any wireless network is 100% secure.

We make no warranty, express, implied, or otherwise, that we will prevent unauthorized access to or use of your personal information.

RSA may hire third parties to review certain Personal Information to advise it on demographic and marketing related issues, but only after such third parties have agreed to maintain the confidentiality, security, and integrity of any Personal Information contained in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Privacy Policy.

Some of our operations, such as our electronic commerce functions, may be managed by service providers who are unaffiliated companies. These companies may share Personal Information with their affiliates and with service providers whom they engage to perform services related to our Web Site or the operation of our business. Examples of these services include payment processing and authorization, fraud protection and credit risk reduction, product customization, order fulfillment and shipping, marketing and promotional material distribution, Web site evaluation, data analysis and, where applicable, data cleansing. These companies may have access to your Personal Information on a confidential basis only to the extent necessary to perform their functions.

If your purchases are being shipped to you, your shipping information will be shared with our delivery service providers. Our delivery service providers are asked not to use your Personal Information for any purpose other than making the delivery.

We would like to inform you of products and services, sales and special offers that might benefit you. When you register online or participate in a survey, you will have the opportunity to sign up for e-mails about our products, services, sales and special offers.

Secure Shopping

When you place orders on our Web Site, all of your order information, including your card number and delivery address, is transmitted through the Internet using Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) technology. SSL technology causes your browser to encrypt your order information before transmitting it to our secure server. SSL technology, an industry standard, is designed to prevent someone other than operators of our Sites from capturing and viewing your Personal Information. Since any order information you provide to us on our Web Site will be transmitted using a secure connection, if your Web browser cannot support this level of security, you will not be able to order products through our Web Site. The most recent versions of commonly used Internet browsers can usually support a secure connection and can be downloaded for free from the web sites for those browsers.
