Top Hoops Privacy Policy
Your privacy is very important to us. We want to make your experience on the
internet as enjoyable and rewarding as possible, and we want you to use the
internet's vast array of information, tools, and opportunities with complete
confidence.
We have created this Privacy Policy to demonstrate our firm commitment to
privacy and security. This Privacy Policy describes how Top Hoops collects
information from all end users of Top Hoops internet services (the "Services"),those
who access some of our Services but do not make a purchase ("Visitors") as well
as those who make a purchase ("Customers"); what we do with the information we
collect, and the choices Visitors and Customers have concerning the collection
and use of such information. Top Hoops requests that you read this Privacy
Policy carefully.
Introduction
Top Hoops collects information in different ways from Visitors and customers who
access the various parts of our Services. We use this information primarily to
provide a customized experience as you use our Services and, generally, do not
share this information with third parties. However, we may disclose personal
information collected if we have received your permission beforehand or in very
special circumstances, such as when we believe that such disclosure is required
by law or other special cases described below.
Data Security
The membership, bookstore and donations information you provide - including
credit card information - is secured using Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) encryption
technology. We use this SSL technology to prevent such information from being
intercepted and read as it is transmitted over the Internet. The encrypted data
goes to a secure site where your information is stored on restricted-access
computers located at restricted-access sites. While we make every effort to
ensure the integrity and security of our network and systems, we cannot
guarantee that our security measures will prevent third-party "hackers" from
illegally obtaining this information.
Responses to Email Inquiries
When Visitors or Customers send email inquiries to Top Hoops, the return email
address is used to answer the email inquiry we receive. Top Hoops does not share
the return email address with any third party.
"Cookies" and Top Hoops Uses Them
A "cookie" is a small data file that can be placed on your hard drive when you
visit certain Web sites. Top Hoops may use cookies to collect, store, and
sometimes track information for statistical purposes to improve the products and
services we provide and to manage our telecommunications networks. If you are a
Customer, we may use a cookie to save your settings and to provide customizable
and personalized services. These cookies do not enable third parties to access
any of your customer information. Additionally, be aware that if you visit non-
Top Hoops web sites where you are prompted to log in or that are customizable,
you may be required to accept cookies.
Special Cases
It is the policy of Top Hoops not to use or share the personal information about
Visitors or Customers in ways unrelated to the ones described above without also
providing you an opportunity to prohibit such unrelated uses. However, Top Hoops
may disclose personal information about Visitors or Customers, if we believe
that it is reasonable to do so, including: to satisfy laws, such as the
Electronic Communications Privacy Act, regulations, or governmental or legal
requests for such information; to disclose information that is necessary to
operate the Services properly or to protect Top Hoops and our Members.

Please remember that any information you may disclose in public areas of our Web
sites or the internet in general, becomes public information. Please exercise
caution when deciding to disclose personal information in these public areas.
