Browsing Information We Collect
When you browse our web site we do not collect personal information about you such as your name, address, phone number, or e-mail address. We do obtain non-personal identifiable information such as the IP address you use to connect to the Internet, your browser type, or the type of computer operating system you use (Macintosh or Windows, for example).

Information We Collect
Cookies
Dennis Kunkel Microscopy, Inc. (as well as most sites on the Internet) uses "cookies" to assist your activities on this web site. A cookie is a small amount of data, which often includes an anonymous unique identifier, which is sent to your browser from a web site's computers. There are two types of cookies, permanent and browser session-only. We use browser session-only cookies so no permanent cookie is placed on your computer hard drive. We create a browser session-only cookie for your current web session to keep track of light box selections or client logins. We cannot use these cookies to personally identify you in any way.
Information While Browsing
While using our light box or shopping area, a session-only cookie ID is created and tracks movements. Your IP address is stored for authentication and verification. This is standard in all on-line applications that need to keep track of your personal selections. Unless you create an account, ask for a price quote, or purchase a product, your personal selections will be lost within 20 minutes of leaving our site, as the session-only cookies will "time out" and your selections will disappear.
Information While Shopping
While shopping on our online store, a session ID is created and tracks movements. Your IP address is stored for authentication and verification. This is standard in all shopping cart programs. When you complete an order form in our shopping area, your information is written to a secure file. If you create a personal account for shopping your information and your password are protected. Your credit card information for payment is securely stored via SSL, is stored in a different secure file than your contact information, and is always encrypted while on our site. Your credit card number is removed from the server when the transaction is complete.

Transfer of Information to Third Parties
At the conclusion of your light box quote request, or your shopping session, your name, address, telephone number and email address, along with your quote or order details are kept on file in order to reference your information and order. If you place an order for one of our products, only your name, address, and the items ordered will be sent to our manufacturer and shipper, no other information leaves Dennis Kunkel Microscopy, Inc. We will not sell or disclose any information to third parties. All information submitted will remain strictly confidential.
