options concerning the privacy of your credit card
information, name, address, e-mail and any other
information you provide us. Ascendtech.us is committed
to data security with respect to information collected
on our site. In addition to the industry standard
security measures available through your browser called

customers in the event of potential problem with your
purchase. Also, you may always contact a sales
representative over the telephone in case you don't want
to provide your credit card information online please
feel free to call our toll free sales line at
866-340-0111.
For protection of our Customers, we ship only to the
verified billing address or authorized shipping address
registered with the Customer's credit card issuer.
Authorized shipping address can be obtained upon contact
of the credit card issuer. Credit cart issuer registers
alternative (shipping) address upon customer's
authorization in addition to existing billing address
for internet deliveries. Please call if you have any

your credit card for further assistance.
At Ascendtech.us we are committed to protecting your
privacy online. Our Privacy Policy demonstrates our firm
commitment to protecting the privacy of our customers.
We use the information that we collect about our
customers to fulfill product and service purchases and
to create a more personalized online experience.
When you shop at Ascendtech.us, we collect
transactional information, or Personally Identifiable
Information, from you such as your name, telephone
number, e-mail address, billing address, shipping
address, credit card or other payment information and a
password. Ascendtech.us does not sell or rent your
transactional information to others. Ascendtech.us uses
customer information only for the purposes of filling
orders, contacting purchasers to inform them of their
order status, sending promotional information, and
enhancing the user experience.
Ascendtech.us will occasionally offer special
contests and promotions. Notification of such contests and promotions are normally sent through the mail or by email. When you enter a contest or
other promotion, we may ask you for additional information
in order to administer the contest, notify winners and make the winners' list
publicly available pursuant to certain states' laws.
Your consent to such promotional use and disclosure of
this information is a condition of your participation.
At Ascendtech.us you can be assured that your
transactional information is secure, consistent with
current industry standard SSL encryption technology. The
importance of security for all transactional information
associated with our customers is of utmost concern to
us. Our secure servers protect the information using
state of the art firewall technology. All customer

you must notify your credit card provider in accordance
with its reporting rules and procedures.
We feel confident in making this guarantee because
our secure server software (SSL) is the industry
standard and among the best software available today for
secure commerce transactions. It encrypts all of your
personal data including credit card number, name, and
address, so that it cannot be read as the information
travels over the Internet. You can tell when you are
protected by encryption - the lock or key at the bottom
of your browser changes color or is no longer broken. To
use this option, you must have a browser that supports
SSL (ex. Microsoft Internet Explorer, AOL, or Netscape
Navigator).
In addition to our encryption standards, your
Ascendtech.us account information is password protected
so that you and only you have access to this personal
information. Please do not disclose this password to
anyone. Also, remember to close your browser window when
your transaction is complete as this will keep your
account safe if you use your computer in a public place
like an office or library. Ascendtech.us can not be held
responsible if you disclose your account password to
other individuals.
