However, we do track information provided to us by your browser, including the website you may have came from, your IP address, domain name, the type of browser you use, the time and date of access and other information that does not personally identify you. FLUIDS iQ may use server and browser information to customize our offerings and presentations.

On the registration and\or ordering screens, we clearly label which Personal Information is required and which information is optional. We may also collect information that you voluntarily provide to us through responses to surveys, search functions, questionnaires, feedback, etc. We may also ask you to provide additional information such as your e-mail address, if and when you want to obtain additional services or information, or to resolve complaints or concerns.
Use of your Personal Information
We process Personal Information for the purposes which we inform you about when we ask you for that information. For example, we may collect and use Personal Information to provide you with products or services you request, to market products and services which we think may be of interest to you, or to communicate with you for other purposes that you have consented to. You may opt-out at any time from receiving our information, which you have consented to receive, by following the instructions as mentioned in any correspondence we may send to you. It is your choice to submit Personal Information to us. When you voluntarily provide us with your Personal Information, we will assume you consent to our collection, use and disclosure of that information for the purposes identified at the time of collection.

If, for matters of law, we must deny access or refuse to correct your Personal Information, we will provide the reason why. In the event that FLUIDS iQ is acquired, sold, or merges with another entity, your Personal Information will be transferred and you will be notified.
At any time, if you wish to close your account with us and delete your Personal Information, we will do so based on written request.
