Silver Mine Motors/Wavetrak, Inc. (Silver Mine Motors) respects your privacy and promises to earn and keep your trust. At Silver Mine Motors, we understand the importance of privacy, and we want you to be as comfortable as possible visiting our site and using its services. All information about you is kept confidential and will not be used in ways that you have not consented, and we will not sell or disclose any information that identifies you to a third party without your explicit approval. 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, or where we believe it is necessary to investigate, prevent, or take action regarding illegal activities, suspected fraud, situations involving potential threats to the physical safety of any person, violations of our terms of use, to verify or enforce compliance with the policies governing our sites and applicable laws or as otherwise required or permitted by law or consistent with legal requirements.

Questions regarding this policy and our practice should be directed to Silver Mine Motors Customer Service, by e-mail to Edan@SilverMineMotors.com.

Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy is incorporated into and subject to the Terms and Conditions of use. It tells you what information we collect, how we protect it and what choices you have about how that information is used. Most information collected is to enable us to best meet your needs as an  participant in a highly customized and responsive manner.

Under Age 13

Silver Mine Motors does not allow children under the age of thirteen (13) to register because Silver Mine Motors must comply with the Children's Online Privacy Protection Act, which prohibits the online collection of personal information from people under 13.

Public Forum Discussions and Comments

Please note that any information that you reveal in a public forum (such as a bulletin board or chat room/event, comments) will be seen by third parties not related to Silver Mine Motors and is therefore not subject to this privacy policy.

SECTION 1 - PERSONAL INFORMATION WE COLLECT

We collect information in four distinct areas:

1. Alerts / Newsletter subscriptions: name, e-mail address

Silver Mine Motors does not store any credit card information. Silver Mine Motors uses a secure hosted service which stores personal credit card data.

SECTION 2 - USE AND DISCLOSURE OF PERSONAL INFORMATION

Personal information will not be released to third parties without your explicit permission. Silver Mine Motors may provide your information to third parties in aggregate with others' information, which does not allow you to be identified or contacted ("Aggregate Information"). For example, we might inform third parties regarding the number of users of our site and the activities they conduct while on our site. We might also inform a pharmaceutical company (that may or may not be an advertiser on our site) that "30 percent of our users live east of the Mississippi" or that "25 percent of our users have looked into wave forecasts in Orange County." Depending on the circumstances, we may or may not charge for this information.

SECTION 3 - SECURITY

We use encryption and authentication tools to protect the security of Personal information that you share with us. However, no data transmission over the Internet (or, with respect to our mobile services, over cellular phone networks) can be guaranteed to be 100% secure. As a result, while we strive to protect Personal information, we cannot and do not guarantee or warrant the security of any information you transmit to or from the Site, and you do so at your own risk.

We restrict access to Personal information to Silver Mine Motors employees, contractors and agents who need to know that information in order to operate, develop or improve our services. These individuals are bound by confidentiality obligations and may be subject to discipline, including termination and criminal prosecution, if they fail to meet these obligations.

SECTION 4 - YOUR PRIVACY CHOICES

You always have options on our site. You can opt in to or out of any of our e-mail lists. If you'd like to get on an e-mail list (for Silver Mine Motors's Surf Alert®, for instance, or to receive information about new products from our store), simply go to that area and sign up. If you'd like your name to be taken off a list, follow the "unsubscribe" directions in any e-mail you receive from us. If you have any questions about how seriously we take your privacy, have a look at the other sections here.
