Use of cookies

Our site uses cookies to keep track of how customers are navigating our site and to provide you with personalized content. If you select the auto-login feature on our registration page, we will also use a cookie to remember the login information you gave us so you don't have to enter that information each time you visit our site. Most browsers are initially set to accept cookies. If your browser is set to refuse cookies, you may not be able to properly use Business & Product Reports.

If you are using a shared machine in a corporate or other environment, you should use caution if selecting the auto-login feature to prevent unauthorized use of your personal information.

Credit Card Processing and Security

At Business & Product Reports, our secure server encrypts all payment information that you transmit while using our site. We use the latest 128-bit encryption technology to keep your personal information safe. This includes your user name, password and credit card number and expiration date. The encryption process takes all of the personal information and converts it into code that is securely transmitted over the Internet. If you experience fraudulent use of your credit card as a result of making a purchase through B&PR, you must notify your credit card provider in accordance with its reporting rules and procedures.

If your credit card provider holds you liable for some portion of the unauthorized charges and if the unauthorized use of your credit card, through no fault of your own, resulted from the use of your credit card to purchase through the secure server at B&PR, then B&PR will reimburse you for the liability up to a maximum of $50.

Credit card transactions are handled by a third-party financial institution that receives the credit card number and other personal identifying information only to verify the credit card numbers and process transactions.

Product Information

Business & Product Reports contains information on a wide variety of products and services. We also provide links to partner, affiliate, and manufacturer sites for additional information on their products and services. While we try to ensure that these sites adhere to a privacy policy that is consistent with this policy, we are not responsible for the privacy practices or content of other Web sites and do not make any representations regarding how such sites use customer information.

Survey Information

We may on occasion seek information on our customer base via electronic or print surveys. Participation is always optional. Survey contact information (name, e-mail address, etc.) is used to request more information in relation to the survey when necessary. We also use contact information to send out personalized and/or targeted promotional material on Business & Product Reports or its partners on an opt-in basis. Survey participants may opt-out of future mailings by following the instructions in the mailing. Surveys also capture demographic information (zip code, age, income level, etc.) This information is used to tailor the experience of B&PR visitors on a personalized basis.
