You may also specify other information as part of the registration process or via subsequent communications with ESSIbuy.com. We will also retain user IDs and initial passwords used to set up accounts and log in to ESSIbuy.com. In addition, we will collect financial billing information, including credit card or IMPAC details, from your organization to facilitate the completion of sales transactions. Where mandatory information is sought, the visitor will be notified of this at the point of information collection.

    ESSIbuy.com’s Web server automatically recognizes site navigation patterns at our site for the purpose of providing our users with the best navigational experience. We do not track users after they leave our site. From information we gather from a user’s browser, we segment usage statistics on an aggregate basis by a user’s domain name, browser type, and IP address.

    Use of Information Collected

    We use your identifiable user information in several ways. We collect and use your identifiable user information to register you as an authorized user of the Web site and to identify you and your organization or agency in transactions conducted through our site. In addition, we use e-mail addresses to welcome our new customers and may use e-mail to periodically update customers on new products, services, or partners.

    We may also associate your login information with information we collect about your organization’s preferences and activities at the site, such as the particular pages you request at the site and purchases or other transactions you make on behalf of your organization. We may use this information to customize the content you receive in future visits to the site based on your organization’s preferences and activities in order to provide you with a more customized experience.

    We may combine your identifiable user information, and information about your organization’s preferences and activities, with those of all or a particular group of our users to prepare collective, aggregated reporting about our users and their activities.

    ESSIbuy.com will maintain the confidentiality and integrity of transaction details in accordance with contractual agreements.

    ESSI discloses identifiable user information to parties involved with specific customer transactions in order to complete transactions between the appropriate buyers and sellers. For example, when you purchase parts through ESSIbuy.com, your order will be fulfilled by one of the ESSI subsidiaries or designated third party suppliers. The only information provided directly to a supplier will be the contact name, transaction details, and shipping address. As such, no billing details will be provided directly to individual suppliers.

    ESSI will not disclose identifiable user information to any other third party, unless disclosure is:

  • Required by law via subpoena, search warrant, or other legal process
  • Explicitly requested by an individual after ESSIbuy.com has received the appropriate authorization
  • Expressly requested by ESSIbuy.com and ESSIbuy.com receives explicit permission from a customer to disclose identifiable information to third parties.
  • Choices

    ESSIbuy.com understands the desire to keep identifiable user information private. Therefore, we provide our customers with appropriate choices regarding the use of individual customer data. Customers have the right to opt out of receiving communications from ESSIbuy.com, ESSI subsidiaries, and from other companies in the ESSIbuy.com network. In addition, customers may also exercise their choices by updating their user profiles with accurate information by contacting the ESSI Administrator by sending an email to essibuy@essihq.com or calling our toll free number, 866-ESSI-BUY, and providing your name and organization, along with the information needing correction or modification.

    If at any time in the future, ESSI decides to use identifiable user information for a purpose that is not currently stated in this policy, we would modify the policy to disclose such usage. In addition, we will provide customers with the opportunity and ability to opt out of this new use if a customer chooses to do so.

    Maintenance of user information

    Contact information for users is kept as long as the information is valid and required to service a customer’s account. However, we do retain transaction histories indefinitely for statistical and legal purposes. ESSIbuy.com will take reasonable measures to ensure that data collected is current and accurate. Customers must also take reasonable measures to ensure the accuracy of all its user registration data.
