We also require you to submit a username and password of your choice for your future access to your account information if you would like to obtain a membership to our site. To safeguard that your username and password remain confidential, DO NOT share this information with anyone. When you visit our website, our systems record information about your session, such as the dates and times of use.

​
Use of Information
GTW uses the information it gathers to provide you with the best online experience possible. As you might expect, contact information is used to contact you concerning your account and our company. We collect information from our customers to process orders and better serve you with pertinent information, such as order confirmations and order status updates. Individual chat sessions or e-mails may be transcribed and stored to improve customer service and resolve issues. Most of the information collected is used to process orders. During the order process, you will have to provide financial information such as your credit card number, expiration date, money order, wire transfer or check information. This information is used for billing purposes and to fulfill your order. If we have trouble processing an order, we will use this contact information to get in touch with you. To properly process your credit card information, we must share your personal and financial information with the merchant bank for authorization and approval. This process is protected by an enhanced security system (see the "Security and Protecting Customers' Personal Information" section below for more details) on security measures and procedures. We do not share your personal and financial information with any third parties, except those assigned to perform functions on our behalf (see "Sharing" section below for more details). Payment information is used to validate your identity and to bill you for the services and products you order. Information on your online sessions is used to allocate system resources and to ensure compliance with GTW Service Level Agreements (SLAs). Information on your communications with GTW's support team is used to address the issues raised by your communications. In addition, GTW regularly sends out e-mails regarding goods and services that it believes may be of interest to you. You may request that GTW not send you future e-mails relating to goods and services by contacting us or unsubscribing.

Security and Protecting Customers' Personal Information
The security of your personal information is important to us. When you enter sensitive information (such as credit card number) on our registration or order forms, we encrypt that information using secure socket layer technology (SSL). We follow generally accepted industry standards to protect the personal information submitted to us, both during transmission and once we receive it. However, no method of transmission over the Internet, or method of electronic storage, is 100% secure. Therefore, while we strive to use commercially acceptable means to protect your personal information, we cannot guarantee its absolute security. GTW takes precautions to protect its customers' information. When you submit sensitive information via the website, your information is protected both online and offline. Access to all our users' information is restricted. Only employees and contractors who need the information to perform a specific job at our company are granted access to personally identifiable information. All employees and contractors are kept up-to-date on our security and privacy practices.
