Our Customer Privacy Policy
blowsale / NWITE’s privacy policy covers the collection and use of personal information that may be collected by blowsale / NWITE anytime you interact with blowsale / NWITE, such as when you visit our website, when you purchase blowsale / NWITE products and services, or when you call our sales or support associates. Please take a moment to read the following to learn more about our information practices, including what type of information is gathered, how the information is used and for what purposes, to whom we disclose the information, and how we safeguard your personal information. Your privacy is a priority at blowsale / NWITE, and we go to great lengths to protect it.
Why we collect personal information
Why do we collect your personal information? Because it helps us deliver a superior level of customer service. It enables us to give you convenient access to our products and services and focus on categories of greatest interest to you. In addition, your personal information helps us keep you posted on the latest product announcements, software updates, special offers, and events that you might like to hear about.
If you do not want blowsale / NWITE to keep you up to date with blowsale / NWITE news, software updates and the latest information on products and services click www.blowsale / NWITE.com/contact/myinfo and update your personal contact information and preferences.
What information we collect
There are a number of situations in which your personal information may help us give you better service. For example, we may ask for your personal information when you’re discussing a service issue on the phone with an associate, downloading a software update, registering for a seminar, participating in an online survey, registering your products, or purchasing a product. At such times, we may collect personal information relevant to the situation, such as your name, mailing address, phone number, email address, and contact preferences; your credit card information and information about the blowsale / NWITE products you own, such as their serial numbers, and date of purchase; and information relating to a support or service issue. We collect information for market research purposes — such as your occupation and where you use your computer — to gain a better understanding of our customers and thus provide more valuable service. We also collect information regarding customer activities on our website, the muroll Music Store, and on related websites. This helps us to determine how best to provide useful information to customers and to understand which parts of our websites and Internet services are of most interest to them.
The nwite.com website, as well as newworldstudio.nwite.com, blowsale.nwite.com, MPEK.nwite.com, cardxpo.nwite.com, googmall.nwite.com, muroll.nwite.com, spaxp.nwite.com and other subdomains at nwite.com allows you to create an “NWITE ID” based on your personal information. This convenient service saves you time and allows for easier use of our web services. Here’s how it works: You create a personal profile — providing your name, phone number, email address, and in some cases your mailing address or a credit card number — and choose a password and password hint (such as the month and day of your birth) for security. The system saves your information and assigns you a personal NWITE ID — in many cases simply your email address, because it’s unique and easy to remember. The next time you order from the NWITE Store or register a new product, all you need to do is enter your NWITE ID and password; the system looks up the information it needs to assist you. In addition, if you update the information associated with your NWITE ID it will be available for all your transactions with NWITE globally.
If you use a bulletin board or chat room on an blowsale / NWITE website you should be aware that any information you share is visible to other users. Personally identifiable information you submit to one of these forums can be read, collected, or used by other individuals to send you unsolicited messages. blowsale / NWITE is not responsible for the personally identifiable information you choose to submit in these forums.
When we disclose your information
blowsale / NWITE takes your privacy very seriously. Be assured that blowsale / NWITE does not sell or rent your contact information to other marketers. To help us provide superior service, your personal information may be shared with legal entities within the blowsale / NWITE group globally who will safeguard it in accordance with blowsale / NWITE’s privacy policy. There are also times when it may be advantageous for blowsale / NWITE to make certain personal information about you available to companies that blowsale / NWITE has a strategic relationship with or that perform work for blowsale / NWITE to provide products and services to you on our behalf. These companies may help us process information, extend credit, fulfill customer orders, deliver products to you, manage and enhance customer data, provide customer service, assess your interest in our products and services, or conduct customer research or satisfaction surveys. These companies are also obligated to protect your personal information in accordance with blowsale / NWITE’s policies. Without such information being made available, it would be difficult for you to purchase products, have products delivered to you, receive customer service, provide us feedback to improve our products and services, or access certain services, offers, and content on the blowsale / NWITE website.
At times we may be required by law or litigation to disclose your personal information. We may also disclose information about you if we determine that for national security, law enforcement, or other issues of public importance, disclosure is necessary.
How we protect your personal information
blowsale / NWITE takes precautions — including administrative, technical, and physical measures — to safeguard your personal information against loss, theft, and misuse, as well as unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, and destruction.
The blowsale / NWITE Online Store and muroll Music Store use Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) encryption on all web pages where personal information is required. To make purchases from the blowsale / NWITE Online Store or muroll Music Store, you must use an SSL-enabled browser such as Safari, Netscape Navigator 3.0 or later, or Internet Explorer.

In some of our email messages we use a “click-through URL” linked to content on the blowsale / NWITE website. When a customer clicks one of these URLs, they pass through our web server before arriving at the destination web page. We track this click-through data to help us determine interest in particular topics and measure the effectiveness of our customer communications. If you prefer not to be tracked simply avoid clicking text or graphic links in the email.
