How we use your information

We primarily use your information, including personal information, to provide our services to you and to fulfil your requests. We may combine your information with other information that we have about you, that is publicly available and/or that we have obtained from third parties (either individually or in the aggregate). We also may use your information for the following purposes:

For marketing and advertising. We may use your information, individually, in the aggregate, and/or combined with demographic information that we maintain or collect from third parties, for marketing and advertising purposes (via email, direct mail, telephone, web or other electronic advertising) and to send you news and newsletters. Specifically, we may use the information that we collect about you to send you email, direct mail, or telephone communications about information that might be of interest to you. We may also use your information to determine appropriate advertising channels and venues and to place ads on such channels and venues, including placing advertising on social networking sites.

Third-party analytics

We also use automated devices and applications, such as Google Analytics, to evaluate the use of our websites and apps and the services we provide.

These analytics providers may use cookies and other technologies to perform their services and may combine the information that they collect about you on our websites with other information that they have collected. This policy does not cover such third parties’ use of the data.

Protecting information collected

We maintain physical, electronic and procedural safeguards to protect your information. When you place orders online to purchase products, we use secure servers to protect your personal information, which is intended to encrypt the personal information that is transmitted between you and our sites. Although we take reasonable steps to safeguard and to prevent unauthorized access to your personal information, we cannot be responsible for the acts of those who gain unauthorized access and we make no warranty, express, implied, or otherwise, that we will prevent unauthorized access to your personal information.
If a third party, including but not limited to a family member, friend, or co-worker seeks to transact business with us on your behalf, that party will be asked to provide us with the same personal information we would collect directly from you online to complete your transaction. Please note that the collection, use and disclosure of your personal information by a third party is subject to your dealings with them and, if applicable, any of their privacy policies and practices. If you do not want an individual to obtain information on or make changes to your orders, you should not share your user ID and password information with them or save this information through your browser.

Your role in protecting your information

To protect your privacy our proprietary databases and systems, you should not share any of your information, such as your user ID or password with any unauthorized individuals or third-party information aggregators that would allow them access to your sensitive account information. You should also take all necessary steps to secure your mobile devices and protect information you may have stored on them. We do not have control over the security of your mobile device. We assume no responsibility for the loss of information associated with security disrupting technologies, including but not limited to reverse engineering of mobile device applications or malware, that compromise the NITE® mobile application(s) as a result of owner or third-party initiated changes to the mobile device. The security of that mobile device is the responsibility of its owner, not us.
