TEC Marketing appreciates any concerns you may have about the privacy and security of your personal information on the Web. We value your personal information as if it is our own. We want your experience on our site to be of value and importance to you as well as provide you with the best imprinted promotional products. We also want you to trust that we make every effort to protect your confidentiality. Personal information is requested in some areas of this site in order to enable us to provide you with the best client experience possible. The amount and type of information received depends on how you use this site. Information may be stored and used in order to enhance your experience.
The only data TEC Marketing collects and stores during normal website usage is typical web server log data. Examples of this type of data are: the name of your Internet service provider, the site that referred you to us, any pages you request, the time and date of those requests, etc. We use this information to generate statistics and measure site activity to benefit the users of this site.
At times, TEC Marketing requests personally identifiable information to provide site visitors with a service. This information, such as name, mailing/shipping address, email address, payment related information, and type of request, is collected and stored in a manner appropriate to the nature of the request to fulfill your needs. This information is never provided or sold to any other company, by TEC Marketing, for that company's independent use.
When using the TEC Promotion online catalog to order logo products, corporate apparel, corporate gifts, promotional pens, tradeshow giveaways, imprinted promotional products or advertising specialties, we also require a certain amount of personally identifiable information. That information may be in the form of a name, shipping/billing address, or other personally identifiable information. TEC uses this information to verify that you are an authorized purchaser for whom this site was constructed, or meet the criteria required to process your request. TEC may also use this information to enhance our understanding of you and improve our services. When you visit the TEC Marketing Promotional website, we automatically recognize some information about you, including your internet service provider. We don't automatically recognize your name, address, email address or any other information specific to you, unless you give us that information via our online registration. Our "cookie" technology allows us to keep track of how many times you visit our site and what features you use. It helps us to make sure that our site is meeting your needs.
The SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) is the most powerful encryption available on the Internet. This means that any information related to your credit card is encrypted when being sent to us, so no one else is able to read it.
Having a secure server takes the risk out of your credit card transactions. TEC Marketing does all order processing on software that is separate from the Internet, so there is no danger of anyone gaining access to your order information. TEC does not keep your credit card information on file. While we realize this does reduce future ordering convenience, we feel that the safest way to protect your credit card information is not to store it, but request it each time you purchase.
Please note: Email is no longer encrypted and not considered a secure way to transmit your credit card information.TEC Marketing’s company policy is to ship your merchandise on or before a specific date as set and agreed to in the approved order. However, please be aware that we cannot be held responsible for delays included in a standard force majeure clause including, but not limited to: Acts of God; Government restrictions (including the denial or cancellation of any export or other necessary license); wars; insurrections; and/or delays resulting from the carrier that is delivering your merchandise even if you are reimbursing TEC Marketing for the shipping costs. All merchandise is shipped FOB, which means that you own the merchandise when it leaves the shipping dock. In rare instances, TEC Marketing may actually ship the item after the intended ship date via a faster shipping method in order to meet the intended receipt date. This will be at TEC Marketing’s expense.
