Protecting your personal privacy
is very important to us. We hope the following statement
will help you understand how Northwest Trophy, collects,
uses and safeguards the personal information you provide
to us. Specifics about what information is collected and
how it is used follow this Privacy Policy Statement.
Your personal privacy is a principal
concern to us at Northwest Trophy. Our goal in outlining
our policy on the collection and use of customer data is
to ensure the highest level of confidentiality and security.
When you provide your personal information to Northwest
Trophy, we will not give or sell your personal information
to any outside company for its use in marketing or solicitation.
We will maintain the confidentiality of your personal information
and it will be used only to support your customer relationship
with our company, assisting us in providing better and more
targeted services to you. Additionally, internal practices
are in place to help protect your privacy by limiting employee
access to and use of customer data. When Northwest Trophy
asks for customer information, it is done with the goal
of improving the relationship between Northwest Trophy and
our customers. At Northwest Trophy, we allow our customers
to maintain control over their personal data while attempting
to provide a more interactive online experience. Our intention
is to send e-mail only to customers who have chosen to receive
such e-mails. At any time, you have the right to decline
receiving future communications in any manner, including
e-mail, fax, telephone and postal mail.

- Information Collection
When you browse the Northwest Trophy Web site, you do so anonymously.
Personal information -- including your e-mail address -- is
not collected. However, we may request that you voluntarily
supply us with personal information, including your e-mail address
for purposes such as correspondence, site registration, membership,
making a purchase, contests or participating in online surveys.
We may ask for your name, e-mail address, telephone number,
and mailing address. Like many other commercial Web sites, Northwest
Trophy may use a standard technology called a "cookie"
to collect information about how our site is used.
- We collect only information
that is needed, and we tell customers how we use it. We
limit the collection of information about our customers
to what we need to know to manage their membership, to provide
customer service, to offer new products and services, and
to fulfill any legal and regulatory requirements. We tell
our customers about the general uses of information we collect
about them, and we will provide additional explanation if
requested.
- We give customers choices
about how their data will be used. On a regular basis, we
provide our customers the ability to decline any or all
future e-mail communications. Customers may also decide
if and how they wish to be contacted via other communication
media.
- We give customers access to
their data online. A customer may change, update or add
additional information about themselves at any time. Northwest
Trophy does not currently provide this ability through our
web site, but customers can still change their data profile
by contacting the company.
- We ensure information quality.
We use advanced technology and well-defined employee practices
to help ensure that customer data is processed promptly,
accurately and completely.
- We use information security
safeguards. Access to customer data is limited to those
who specifically need it to conduct their business responsibilities.
We use security techniques designed to protect our customer
data -- especially that data which is used by employees
to fulfill customer services.
- We limit the release of customer
information. In addition to providing customers with the
opportunity to refuse marketing offers, we release information
only at the customers' requests, or when required to do
so by law or other regulatory authority. When a court order
or subpoena requires us to release information, we notify
the customer directly so that his/her legal rights can be
exercised, if appropriate. The only exceptions to this policy
are when we are prohibited by court order or law from notifying
the customer, or cases in which fraud and/or criminal activity
is suspected.
- We hold employees responsible
for our privacy principles. Each Northwest Trophy employee
is personally responsible for maintaining customer confidentiality.
All Northwest Trophy employees are required to sign an agreement
that they will comply with these policies. Employees who
violate these policies are subject to disciplinary action,
up to and including dismissal. Employees are expected to
report violations -- and may do so confidentially -- to
their managers or other supervisors.
- Information Use
If you provide us with your e-mail address, or have done so
in the past, we may send you e-mail offers or newsletters. These
offers or newsletters are based on information you provided
in your order, as well as information available from external
sources, such as census bureau data. These e-mail offers will
come from Northwest Trophy. Your information or e-mail address
is never sold to a third party. All offers are carefully developed
to guarantee that they meet our standards. Our goal is to target
offers to customers who will find them of value.
- Declining E-mail Offers
Northwest Trophy provides customers with an easy means to decline
receiving e-mail offers and recognizes the importance of providing
you with choices. At any time, you may request to discontinue
receiving these offers from us by simply replying to the e-mail
address included in every e-mail message you receive from Northwest
Trophy.
- What else should I know
about my privacy?
Third party Internet sites and services accessible through Northwest
Trophy have separate privacy and data collection practices,
independent of us. Northwest Trophy has no responsibility or
liability for these independent policies or actions. You are
solely responsible for maintaining the secrecy of your passwords,
membership ID, or any account information. Please be careful
and responsible whenever you are online. If you post personal
information online that is accessible to the public, you may
receive unsolicited messages from other parties in return. While
we aim to protect your personal information, Northwest Trophy
cannot ensure or warrant the security of any information you
transmit to us, and you do so at your own risk.
While Northwest Trophy puts
forth its best efforts in adhering to these minimum privacy standards,
additional restrictions may be imposed to comply with state and
local laws or specific products and services.
