ART will not knowingly sell, share, or rent the information collected on this site to others in ways different from what is disclosed in this statement. ART collects information from our users at several points on our website.
1.1 Information that is actively submitted to ART.
e-mail addresses. If the user needs to contact ART the user may complete a internet form for a quote. In order for ART to contact the user, the users are required to give their contact information (such as name and email address). This information is used to contact the user to fulfill requests for site, service updates and for products and services on our site for which they have expressed interest.
1.2 Orders.
We request information from the user on our order form. Here, a user must provide contact information (like name and shipping address) and financial information (like credit card number, expiration date). This information is used for billing purposes, with the help of our business partner, and to fill customers' orders. If we have trouble processing an order, this contact information is used to get in touch with the user.
1.3 Newsletter.
If a user wishes to subscribe to our newsletter, we ask for contact information such as his or her name and email address.
1.4 Tell-A-Friend.
If a user elects to use our referral service for informing a friend about our site, we ask them for the friend's name and email address. ART will automatically send the friend a one-time email inviting them to visit the site. ART stores this information for the sole purpose of sending this one-time email. The friend may contact ART at updates@ART.com to request the removal of this information from their database.
1.5 How information collected by ART is used.
We will only use information collected to contact the user when needed. We use a credit card processing company to bill users for goods and services. These companies do not use personally identifiable information for any use other than credit card processing; however, we will not be responsible or liable for use of the information required by credit card companies in contravention of their policies, contractual obligations or general good business procedures.
2. Communications from ART.
Acknowledgement e-mails are send to the e-mail address associated with the account or user. This process is designed to prevent e-mail addresses from being used without permission in because of a request made to ART.
3.Site and Service Updates.
ART may send the user site and/or service announcement updates. Members are not able to un-subscribe from service announcements, which contain important information about the site and/or service. We communicate with the user to provide requested services and in regards to issues relating to their account via email or phone.
4.Correction/Updating Personal Information.
Users must provide accurate and correct contact information (name, address, phone number) for their orders. If a user's personally identifiable information changes (such as a zip code), or if a user no longer desires ART's services, we will endeavor to provide a way to correct, update or remove that user's personal data provided to us. This can usually be done by emailing our Customer Support for assistance or by phone call to ART office.
4. Underage customers.

ART does not knowingly contact, market to, or solicit, collect or use personally identifiable information from or about any individual under the age of thirteen (13). It is possible that by fraud or deception we may receive information pertaining to children under thirteen (13). If ART is notified that it has received personal information regarding a person under the age of thirteen (13), as soon as we reasonably verify the information, we will either obtain parental consent or otherwise delete the information from our records.

5. Linking to third-party websites.
This web site may from time to time contains links to other sites. Please be aware that we are not responsible for the privacy practices of such other sites. We encourage our users to be aware when they leave our site and to read the privacy statements of each and every web site that collects personally identifiable information. This privacy statement applies solely to information collected by this Web site.
6. Our privacy practices.
When users submit sensitive information via the website, the information is protected both online and off-line.
When our order forms asks users to enter sensitive information (such as credit card number), that information is encrypted and is protected with encryption software. While on a secure page, such as our order form, the lock icon on the bottom of Web browsers such as Netscape Navigator and Microsoft Internet Explorer becomes locked, as opposed to un-locked, or open, when you are just 'surfing.'
While we use encryption to protect sensitive information online, we also take efforts to protect user-information off-line. Only employees who need the information to perform a specific job (for example, our billing clerk or a customer service representative) are granted access to personally identifiable information. In addition, the servers that we store personally identifiable information on are kept in a secure environment, behind locked doors.
If you have any questions about the security at our website, you can send an email to: support@appliedrotortechnology.com
7. Changes to our privacy policy.
If we decide to change our privacy policy, we will post a notice on our Home page so our users can review the changes and be aware of what information we collect, how we use it, and under certain circumstances, if any, we disclose it.
8. Final Statement
We at ART will use your information in accordance with the privacy policy that is currently in effect.
