We respect your privacy!
The Big Cats recognizes that privacy is an important issue, so we design and operate our services with the protection of your privacy in mind. This Privacy Policy outlines the types of personal information we gather when you use The Big Cats services, as well as some of the steps we take to safeguard it.
If you have any questions, please feel free to contact us.

Privacy
By using our website you consent to the collection and use of your information in the manner described below.

Our Commitment to Privacy
The Big Cats respects the privacy of your information. Our Privacy Policy governs our electronic information gathering practices and reflects our commitment to protect your privacy.

Security Measures
Wherever possible, we employ reasonable and current security methods to prevent unauthorized access, maintain data accuracy and ensure correct use of information, through the use of firewalls and Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) 128-bit encryption.

No data transmission over the Internet or any wireless network can be guaranteed to be perfectly secure. As a result, while we are committed to the active protection of your personal information, we cannot ensure or guarantee the security of any information you transmit to us and you do so at your own risk.

If you have an account with us, your account information and profile are password protected. We recommend that you do not divulge your password to anyone. Our personnel will never ask you for your password in an unsolicited phone call or in an unsolicited e-mail. It is your responsibility to remember to sign out of your account and close your browser window when you have finished your session.

Information Collected and its Use
At the time you purchase products from us or use our services, you may be required to provide information such as your name, address, phone number, and details regarding your method of payment. We need this information to provide you the products or services you requested and to inform you of any matters relating to such products or services obtained from us.

We automatically gather general statistical information about usage of our websites and services. This information may include such things as IP addresses, browsers, pages viewed, products purchased, etc. Wherever possible, we use this data in the aggregate to study and understand ways to improve our websites and services. We may provide this statistical information to third parties, but when we do so, we do not provide personally-identifying information without your permission, or without non-disclosure agreements in place with the third party. Your billing information, credit card numbers and expiration dates and tracking information from checks or money orders will be disclosed to our bank, processing, fulfillment and verification partners as required to complete the transactions requested.

We may use your information to customize your experience with our websites and services, and to deliver information to you that, in some cases, is targeted to your interests, such as targeted banners, new products, services, or promotions. We may use your email address, mailing address and phone number to contact you regarding administrative notices, new product offerings and communications relevant to your use of our websites and services.

We may use your information, such as your IP address, to help diagnose problems relating to our infrastructure, to manage our websites and our infrastructure's capabilities and to enhance our websites based on the usage pattern data we receive.

Disclosure of Information
We may use or disclose your information to resolve disputes, investigate problems, to enforce our Terms of Use in relation to the use of our websites and services.

We reserve the right to disclose, without notice to you, your information where we have reason to believe that such disclosure is necessary to identify, contact or bring legal action against someone who may be infringing (or threatening to infringe) or who may otherwise be causing injury to or interference with (either intentionally or unintentionally) our title, rights, interests or property or those of other website users or of anyone else who could be harmed by such activities.

We also reserve the rights to disclose, without notice to you, personal information in response to a subpoena or other judicial order or when we believe in good faith that such disclosure is required by any law, regulation or listing requirement or by any stock/securities exchange, governmental or regulatory authority.

External Links
We have established relationships with other parties to offer you the benefit of additional products and services. We offer you access to these products and services through the use of hyperlinks to their sites. The Privacy Policy of such other parties may differ from ours. We therefore encourage you to read that policy before responding of any offers, products or services provided by such other parties.

Cookies
As part of our service, we use cookies to store and sometimes track information about you. A cookie is a small amount of data that is sent to your browser from a web server and stored on your computer's hard drive. Generally, but without limiting the scope of use, we use cookies to: remind us who you are and enable us to access your information so you do not have to re-enter it; gather statistical information about usage; research visit patterns and help target advertisements based on user interests; assist our; and track progress and participation in promotions.

Preference and option configurations in your browser determine if and how a cookie will be accepted. You can change those configurations on your computer if you desire. By changing your preferences, you can accept all cookies, you can be notified when a cookie is set or you can reject all cookies. If you do so and cookies are disabled, you may be required to re-enter your information more often and certain features of our site may be unavailable.

Children Under 18
The Big Cats does not target children and expects not to sell any of our products or services to children. The Big Cats regards "children" as minors younger than 18 years old. However, we have no way of distinguishing the age of individuals who access our website and so we carry out the same Privacy Policy for individuals of all ages. If a child has provided us with personally-identifying information without parental or guardian consent, the parent or guardian should contact us to remove the information and opt out of promotional opportunities.

Changes to this Policy
Please note this Privacy Policy may change from time to time. We expect such changes to be minor, and we will post those changes on this page.

If you have any additional questions about this privacy statement, the practices of this
site, or your dealings with this Web site, please feel free to contact us any time.
