This
Privacy Policy ("Privacy Policy") applies to the information collected
on the pages of and by the services on the website located at
"www.stridesrunning.com" (the "Service") operated by Strides Running
Store Inc. ("we", "us", or "our"). Strides Running Store Inc. is
respectful of the privacy concerns of the visitors to the Service.
Strides Running Store also recognizes the valuable potential of
technology to help people communicate with the companies whose web
sites they visit, particularly through customer databases. Responsible
use of the information you share with Strides Running Store is
paramount. In order to help you understand the role technology plays in
the collection and use of information you provide to Strides Running
Store , Strides Running Store has created the following privacy policy
and guidelines. By using the Service or providing your contact
information, you are agreeing to our practices concerning the
collection and use of your information and to the terms of this Privacy
Policy. If you do not agree with any terms or practices described in
this Privacy Policy, please do not use the Service.
Because our business will continue to evolve, from time to time, our
policies will be reviewed and may be revised. We reserve the right to
change this Privacy Policy at any time and notify you by posting an
updated version of the Privacy Policy on the Service or by sending an
electronic mail message to you. It is your responsibility to
periodically check this page so that you are aware of what information
we collect, how we use it, and under what circumstances we might
disclose it. The amended Privacy Policy will apply between us whether
or not we have given you specific notice of any change.
NON-PERSONALLY IDENTIFIABLE INFORMATION
In general, you can visit the Service and view its content while
remaining anonymous by not providing any personal information. In some
cases, when you visit the Service, Strides Running Store may, through
the use of "cookies" (which are described in greater detail below),
automatically collect information about you that is not personally
identifiable. Examples of this type of information include the type of
internet browser you are using, the type of computer operating system
you are using, the domain name of your internet service provider and/or
the web site from which you linked to the Service or advertisement.
PERSONALLY IDENTIFIABLE INFORMATION
Strides Running Store will not collect any personally identifiable
information about you (such as your name, address, telephone number or
email address) unless you provide it to us voluntarily (for example, if
you complete our on-line Newsletter form). The personal information
collected on or by the Service will be used to operate the Service
and/or for any purpose for which you have submitted such information
including, without limitation, using and displaying the information on
any interactive portion of the Service, for example, the "Discussions"
and "Fitting Appointment" sections of the Service. Another purpose for
gathering certain information is to enhance your online experience by
helping Strides Running Store understanding you better and also to make
you aware of new products or offers in which you may be interested. For
example, Strides Running Store or its partners may also use such
information to send you directed email with news and information on new
content and features of the Service and new products and services
offered by Strides Running Store and its partners. Use of any of the
services on the Service is entirely voluntary; however, if you do not
provide the personal information requested by us, then we may elect not
to make the related services available for your use. If you have
registered with Strides Running Store and do not want Strides Running
Store or its partners to contact you in the future, please see Opt-Out
below.
When you do provide us with personally identifiable information, we
will take appropriate steps to protect the information you share with
us. In this regard, our policy is that we do not give, sell or
otherwise transfer your personally identifiable information to anyone
outside the Strides Running Store organization or selected Strides
Running Store partners unless we first disclose to you at the time of
collection that your personal information may be provided to third
parties. However, there are certain limited instances where we may
disclose or transfer personally identifiable information. For example,
we may provide such information to appropriate authorities if we
believe in good faith that the law requires it or to protect the legal
rights or property of Strides Running Store . Additionally, as we
continue to develop our business, we may buy or sell business assets.
In such transactions, customer information is generally one of the
transferred business assets. However, we are not in the business of
selling customer information to others, and aside from certain
exceptional circumstances, we will take appropriate measures to ensure
the protection of the information you provide to us.
USE OF COOKIES

store some information on your computer. This information will be in

identifiers that are transferred to your computer's hard drive through
your internet browser. Cookies enable our system to recognize your
browser and to tailor the Service or advertisement to better match your

merchandise more convenient for you. With most internet browsers, you
