Some cookies allow Us to make it easier for You to navigate Our Services, while others are used to enable a faster log-in process or to allow Us to track Your activities while using Our Services.  Most web browsers automatically accept cookies, but if You prefer, You can edit Your browser options to block them in the future.

In contrast to cookies, which are stored on Your computer’s hard drive, clear GIFs are embedded invisibly on web pages. We may use clear GIFs (also referred to as web beacons, web bugs, or pixel tags) in connection with Our Services to, among other things, track the activities users of Our Services, help Us manage content, and compile statistics about usage of Our Services.

SECURITY

To protect Your personal information, We take reasonable precautions and follow industry best practices to make sure it is not inappropriately lost, misused, accessed, disclosed, altered or destroyed.

If You provide Us with Your credit card information, the information is encrypted using secure socket layer technology (SSL) and stored with a AES-256 encryption. Although no method of transmission over the Internet or electronic storage is 100% secure, We follow all PCI-DSS requirements and implement additional generally accepted industry standards.

We have taken steps to protect the personal information We collect. However, despite Our best efforts, no data security measures can fully guarantee security. You should take steps to protect against unauthorized access to Your account credentials and devices by, among other things, signing off after using a shared computer, not logging in using public Wi-Fi service providers, choosing a strong password that nobody else knows or can easily guess, and keeping Your log-in and password private.

You may access, modify, or delete the personal information that You have provided to Us by emailing Us at sales@lachuteperformance.com with what You would like updated.
