What information we collect and how we use it

Information we collect – When you browse www.BOCARATONFOOTCARE.com and do not interact with the site for any online service or product from BOCARATONFOOTCARE, you browse anonymously. Personally identifiable information–such as your name, address, phone number and e-mail address–is not collected as you browse.

When you become a registered user on our site, or choose to interact with our site in other ways, such as subscribing to BOCARATONFOOTCARE publications, purchasing BOCARATONFOOTCARE product, applying for BOCARATONFOOTCARE membership, participating in online surveys, submitting questions or comments or requesting information or materials, we will collect certain personal information from you. The type of personal information collected will vary but may include name, address, phone number, birth date, billing and delivery information, e-mail address, credit card information and other demographic information.

We do not collect Social Security numbers via BOCARATONFOOTCARE website. The type of product or service that you seek will determine the personal information that is collected. For a listing of the exact type of personal information that will be collected from you, please refer to the appropriate online form.

Tracking activity on our website

We track how our site is used by both anonymous visitors and visitors who interact with the site. One way we track is by using “cookies.” A cookie is a small file or string of text on the site user’s computer that is used to aid Web navigation. Two types of cookies are commonly used. A session cookie is created by a website when that website is accessed; that type of cookie is automatically deleted by closing the Web browser. A persistent cookie is a cookie that is stored on the hard drive of the user’s computer for a period of time chosen by the website that set the cookie, usually for a number of years, unless the user deletes it manually. This policy distinguishes between short-lived cookies and long-lasting cookies. Short-lived cookies include all session cookies and those persistent cookies that are set to be stored for no more than one week.

BOCARATONFOOTCARE-related websites may at times require users to accept short-lived cookies in order for the websites to function properly. Long-lasting cookies may be used on the site to track visitor practices to help determine which site features and services are most important and guide editorial direction. Other long-lasting cookies may make it possible for the user to access the site without requiring entry of a user name or password, allow the user to view different restricted areas of the site without reregistering, allow the user to personalize the site for future use and provide other features and benefits. Users who do not desire the functionality created by the long-lasting cookie can disable the long-lasting cookie function, either by indicating when asked that they do not wish to have a long-lasting cookie created or by disabling the long-lasting cookie function on their Web browser. Individuals can opt out of long-lasting cookie functions that permit tracking of personal information at any time.

Cookies are required for the Members-Only and e-commerce sections of the website. Cookies are essential for site administration and security. Another way we track site activity is by using transparent electronic images called “clear GIFs,” “Web bugs,” or “Web beacons” on this site’s Web pages. These images count the number of users who visit that page from specific banner ads outside www.BOCARATONFOOTCARE or through e-mail links. A similar image, sometimes called a “spotlight tag,” is used on this site’s Web pages where transactions take place. The spotlight tag collects numeric information, such as the dollar amount of an online purchase, to help us understand usage of the site. We do not use any of these electronic images to collect personally identifiable information.

How we use personal information – Once collected, we may use your personal information (except for e-mail address, which is outlined below) for the following purposes:
