What we do

How does I-BLADES protect my personal information?

I-BLADESā€™s data security practices are consistent with industry best practice. Our robust policies and procedures are designed and implemented to protect your. However, given the nature of the internet and the fact that network security measures are not infallible, we cannot guarantee the security of your information. In addition to using encryption to protect sensitive information online, we also make an effort to protect your information offline. All of your information, not just the sensitive information mentioned above, is restricted in our offices. Only employees who need the information to perform a specific job (for example, a customer service representative) are granted access to personally identifiable information. All employees are kept up-to-date on our security and privacy practices. Finally, the servers that store your personally identifying information are housed in a secure environment.

How does I-BLADES collect my personal information?

I-BLADES is the sole owner of the information it collects. I-BLADES collects certain personally identifying information (ā€œPIIā€) (including your name and mobile phone number) when you purchase an i-BLADES product. Based on this information we may send you notices regarding new products that may be of interest to you.

I-BLADES also collects anonymous, aggregated information from all visitors to the Site. This type of information is never linked to any PII, and is only used in the aggregate to generate statistical reports about the use of our Site.

Why canā€™t I limit all sharing?

Federal law gives you the right to limit only:

  • sharing for affiliatesā€™ everyday business purposesā€”information about your creditworthiness
  • affiliates from using your information to market to you
  • sharing for non-affiliates to market to you

State laws and individual companies may give you additional rights to limit sharing. For details, see the ā€œTo limit our sharingā€ section, and see below for more on your rights under state law.
