Personal Book
One of our most valuable tools we have for building and
maintaining our relationship with you is Personal Book. It allows us to better
serve you in a number of ways, including keeping you informed on when your
alterations, repairs, or your favorite brands or product will arrive, and
notifying you about sales, special appearances and store events or promotions
of interest to you.
To best serve you, we record and access information in
Personal Book, including your name, address, telephone numbers, e-mail address,
interests, privacy preferences and purchase history. All Access Gun Salespeople
are expected to use Personal Book in an ethical and appropriate manner. This
includes only entering accurate customer information, voluntarily given by you
to the Salesperson, for the specific purpose of entering it into Personal Book
or any other Access Gun-approved data device.
Personal Book allows our Salespeople to follow through on
our commitment to serving you in a professional manner, and we are dedicated to
ensuring that the information you provide is protected and secure. Personal
Book is the property of Access Gun and may be used for Access Gun- related
purposes only.
Mobile Privacy
Access Gun offers mobile applications (commonly known as
"apps") that allow you to shop online, check product availability,
learn about store events, or receive other information from Access Gun. All personal information collected by Access
Gun via our mobile application is protected by this Privacy Policy.
Although you do not have to provide your location
information to Access Gun to use our mobile applications, our store-specific
services such as find-an-item require a zip code to function. You may manually
enter a zip code and we will save your zip code(s) for future reference.
Alternatively, when you download our mobile application, you may choose to
allow it to obtain your precise location from your mobile device when you click
the "near me" button. In this case, we will determine your zip code
from the precise location data received from your mobile device. We do not
store precise location data; we only store the zip code associated with the
location. We may also update our mobile applications to offer automatic (or
"push") notifications. We will provide push notifications only to
those customers who opt-in to receive such notifications from Access Gun. If
you have questions about location and notification privacy, please contact your
mobile service provider or the manufacturer of you device to learn how to
adjust your settings.
In the future, we may offer updated or enhanced versions of
our mobile applications that include additional features created by us or using
third party functionality. Our applications or the third party may
automatically collect information about your precise location from your device,
but only if you allow it.
Cookies, Web Beacons,
and Other Similar Technologies
Our website uses "cookie" and "web
beacon" technology. We use cookies and web beacons to identify your
device, provide website user authentication, conduct fraud prevention and
management services, distinguish you from other visitors, record your IP
address and understand your use of our site, and identify the name of the Web
site from which you linked to Access Gun. This information is used for
fulfilling contracts with our business partners, and to help us serve you
better by improving our website design, as well as our products, services, and
promotions. We do not otherwise track any information about your use of other
websites. Information obtained through cookies and web beacons may be shared
with or obtained by service providers on our behalf.
A cookie is a small data file that is placed on the hard
drive of your computer when you visit a website. A "session cookie"
expires immediately when you end your session (i.e., close your browser). A
"persistent cookie" stores information on the hard drive so when you
end your session and return to the same website at a later date, the cookie
information is still available. A web beacon is a small string of code that
represents a clear graphic image and is used in conjunction with a cookie.
When you visit our website, we may use both a session and a
persistent cookie. This Access Gun-placed cookie may contain information (such
as a unique user ID) that is used to track your usage of our website and in
some cases, your e-mail address. Your e-mail address is only saved in this Access
Gun-placed cookie if you register with us. A web beacon allows us to capture
certain additional types of information about a visitor's actions on a web
site, such as a visitor's cookie number, the time, date, duration and number of
page views, a description of the page where the Web beacon is placed, and
details about any items that were purchased.
If you register with us, this Access Gun-placed cookie
allows us to recognize you when you return to our website and provides you with
access to your account information. If you save your information with or order
from us, we may also use cookies to monitor and maintain information about your
use of our website. If you have not saved your information with or ordered from
us, we may monitor and maintain information about your use of our website in a
manner that does not identify you. You can disable cookies at any time by using
your browser options; however, if you turn off cookies, we will not be able to
track your order or enable you to make a purchase from our website. In
addition, we will not be able to recognize you as a registered user to allow
you access to your account information.
We may use Flash Cookies (also known as Local Stored
Objects) or other similar technologies. A Flash cookie is a small data file
placed on a computer using Adobe Flash technology that may be built into your
computer or downloaded by you to your computer. We use these technologies to
personalize and enhance your online experience, facilitate processes,
personalize and store your settings. Flash cookies may help our website
visitors to, for example, set volume preference associated with a video
experience, play games and perform surveys. They help us improve our sites by
measuring which areas are of greatest interest to customers. We do not use
Flash cookies for marketing or behavioral targeting purposes. Flash cookies are
different from browser cookies and the cookie management tools provided by your
browser will not remove Flash cookies. Learn
how to manage privacy and storage settings for Flash cookies. If you
disable Flash cookies or other similar technologies, please be aware that you
may not have access to certain features and services that make your online
experience more efficient and enjoyable.
Third-Party Advertising
Partners
We use third-party service providers to serve advertisements
(banners or links) on our behalf across the Internet.
These advertising service providers may collect
non-identifiable information about your visits to our website, and your
interactions with our products and services. Such non-identifiable information
does not include your name, address, e-mail address or other personal
information. The information is collected through the use of cookies and pixel tags
(also known as action tags), which is industry-standard technology used by most
major websites.
In addition to the information about your visits to our
website, our service providers may also use the information about your visits
to other websites to target advertisements for products and services available
from Access Gun.
Facebook Custom
Audience Ads from Access Gun
We may display interest-based ads to you when you are using
Facebook through a tool offered by Facebook called the Custom Audience Tool.
This tool allows us to personalize our ads based on your shopping experience
with us. We do not share any of your personal information, including your
shopping history, with Facebook. The tool lets Access Gun convert your e-mail
address to a unique number that Facebook uses to match to unique numbers
Facebook generates from e-mail addresses of its users.
Social Media
Interactions
Access Gun invites you to socialize and share your fashion
inspiration, finds and purchases with your friends using Social Media tools
such as Facebook, Twitter, Pinterest and Instagram. If you choose to use these
tools, you may be sharing certain profile elements, including your comments.
This sharing is subject to each social media program's privacy policies. We
also use Facebook Social Plugins to allow Facebook to share information and
friends' activities with its members while they are on our website. For
example, Social Plugins allow Facebook to show you and your friends'
"Likes" on our product pages if you are logged into Facebook while
shopping at AccessGun.com. Access Gun does not receive or control any of the
content from Facebook Social Plugins. To remove a Facebook "Like"
through Access Gun, place your cursor in the "grayed out" Like button
and click on the "X" that appears. This removes the "Like"
from your Facebook Page, as well as from Access Gun’ websites. You can also
delete comments made while at AccessGun.com from your Facebook Page.
For more information about Facebook Social Plugins and other
social media tools, click
here.
We may allow you to sign in to your Access Gun.com account
using Facebook Connect. If you choose to do this, we may collect information
necessary to facilitate social interactions such as friend lists, birthday,
check-ins, basic profile information and your profile picture but only if the
privacy settings you and your friends set within Facebook allow it. We will use
the information we collect to create and facilitate an interactive social
experience and to bring you products, services and programs from Access Gun. Access
Gun will always comply both with its privacy policy as well as with Facebook
Connect terms regarding use of Facebook profile information.
Links to Other Websites
and Services
Websites provided by the Access Gun family of companies may
include links to other Internet sites, content, or videos (embedded or direct
links) maintained by third parties ('Linked Sites'). Access Gun provides Linked
Sites to you solely as a convenience, and the inclusion of Linked Sites does
not imply endorsement by Access Gun of the Linked Sites. You access Linked
Sites at your own risk and by accessing them you leave Access Gun' website.
Linked Sites are not under the control of Access Gun and Access Gun is not
responsible for the contents of any Linked Site, including the privacy policies
or tracking technologies they may use. We encourage you to check the applicable
privacy policy to determine how they will handle any personally identifying
information they collect from you.

California Privacy
Rights
California law entitles residents to ask us for a notice
describing what categories of personal information we share with third parties
or with corporate affiliates for those entities direct marketing purposes. Access
Gun does not provide any personal information to third parties for their own
direct marketing purposes. If you want to request a notice or have any

(1-833-222-4867).

If we become aware that an individual is under the age of 13
and has submitted any information to Access Gun for any purpose without prior
verifiable parental consent, we will delete his or her information from our
files.
Security
We maintain physical, electronic and procedural safeguards
to protect the confidentiality and security of personal information transmitted
to us using this website. To help guard your information, our website uses
Secure Sockets Layer (SSL). SSL encrypts your credit card number, name and

e-mail is not encrypted and is not considered to be a secure means of
transmitting credit card information.
To be sure your connection is secure, look at the bottom status
bar of your browser window. If you see an unbroken key or a closed lock
(depending on your browser) the SSL is active, and your information is secure.
Most browsers offer additional security alerts as well. If for some reason you
are unable to connect to our secure server, please call us at +1-833-ACC-GUNS
(1-833-222-4867).
We also ask customers to carefully review their accounts and
immediately report any unexpected activity to Access Gun and their issuing bank

Fraud Alerts:
Protecting Your Personal Information
You may come in contact with websites, e-mails or texts that
try to lure you into providing personal information with the offer of an Access
Gun gift card. Access Gun does not sponsor these offers nor are we affiliated
with the promotion originators. If you become aware of any potentially
fraudulent activity on a website or in an e-mail or text, please call us at +1-833-ACC-GUNS
(1-833-222-4867) so that we can follow up. We take these matters, and the
protection of our customers' sensitive information, very seriously.
Data Processing and
Storage
Access Gun and its third-party service providers may process
or store your personal information outside of the United States or Canada and
other countries. In accordance with the laws of those countries, in certain
circumstances your personal information may be accessible by foreign law
enforcement, regulatory bodies or other authorities. For more information of
our use of foreign service providers please contact us as described below.
International Customer
Privacy
Protecting the privacy and security of Access Gun customer
information is a top priority for Access Gun. In some cases, Access Gun partners
with outside vendors to help facilitate transactions. When that is the case, we
work closely with the vendor to ensure that the transaction is appropriately
handled and all the information you provide is treated with the utmost care.
Business Transitions
As we continue to develop our business, we may undergo a
business transition such as acquiring another company, merging with an existing
company, or selling a portion of our assets. In such transitions, customer
information is typically one of the business assets that is transferred or
acquired by a third party. In the unlikely event that Gun Accessories LC. or
substantially all of its assets are acquired or enter a court proceeding, you
acknowledge that such transfers may occur and that your personal information
can continue to be used as set forth in this Privacy Policy.
Policy Changes
This policy replaces all previous disclosures we may have
provided you about our information practices. We reserve the right to change
this policy, and to apply any changes to information previously collected, as
permitted by law. If there are material changes to this policy or our
information practices change in the future, we will notify you by posting the
policy changes on our website.
