| Metrobus is committed to the privacy
and security of your electronic commerce. For your
full understanding, the following statement details
our information gathering and dissemination practices,
as well as our security measures.
Information Collected to Serve You
Order Process: to process your on-line orders, we require your name,
billing address, phone number, e-mail address, shipping
address and credit card information. We use this
information to process your order and, if any
questions should arise, to contact you about your
order. In general, we will try to contact you first by
e-mail and if that fails, or if time is critical, we
will try to contact you by phone. We share this
information, and only that information which is
absolutely necessary, with those third parties that
are involved in the processing of your order. For
example, the financial institution that issued your
credit card and the shipping carrier that delivers
your order.
Subscription Service:
we make available multiple electronic newsletters and
other electronic customer bulletins. Should you decide
to subscribe, we will send you this information from
time to time. You may unsubscribe at any time by
contacting us.
Sweepstakes, Contests and
Surveys: should you decide to participate
in one or more of the sweepstakes or contests that we
may offer, the information gathered here is used as
entrance or submission and as a way for us to notify
the winner.
Cookies: Metrobus
does not make use of cookies.
IP Address: by
default all web server log files capture IP addresses,
however, we would only use your IP to help diagnose
problems with our server, and to administer our Web
site.
Privacy of
Information: aside from the previously
mentioned third parties involved in the processing of
your order, Metrobus will not share any information
provided by you to us with other parties.
Security
Measures: Transactions processed in our
e-Store are handled with
industry-standard SSL encryption. When you enter
your credit card number into the order form, it is
transmitted across the Internet in an encrypted
(scrambled) form, then decoded when it gets to
us. For added security, we also encrypt the
credit card number when it is stored on disk. If you are not
the kind of person who worries about being hit by
lightning as you're crossing the street, you probably
don't have to worry that your credit card number will
be intercepted on the way to a secure website. According to CNN, "The prevalent opinion...is
that on-line credit card use is actually no riskier
for consumers than traditional "low-tech"
transactions." We order products online all the
time, both as a company and as individuals. When we
use a credit card to buy something online, we feel at
least as safe as we would using one in a store or
restaurant.
Links Beyond
Metrobus.com: we may include links on
Metrobus.com to other companies’ websites. Metrobus
is not responsible for the privacy policies and
content of those sites.
