If you have previously enabled your computer or mobile device to send us location information, you may be able to opt-out from further allowing us to access such information by changing the settings on your computer or mobile device or by uninstalling the application.

4. SECURITY. The Sites have security measures in place designed to prevent loss, misuse and alteration of the information we obtain from you, but we make no assurances about our ability to prevent any such loss, misuse, or alteration to you or to any third party arising out of any such loss, misuse, or alteration. When a password is used to protect your account and personal information, it is your responsibility to keep your password confidential. When you enter sensitive billing information through our shopping cart vendor, the transmission of that information will be encrypted using secure socket layer technology (SSL). If you choose to use a third-party payment option to pay for your order, its privacy statement and security practices will apply to your information. We encourage you to read that privacy statement before providing your information. We follow generally accepted industry standards to protect the personal information submitted to us, both during transmission and after receipt. However, no method of transmission over the Internet or method of electronic storage is 100% secure and we cannot guarantee its absolute security. To protect both the personal information and the general information we receive from you through a Site, we have implemented various security measures, including requiring Site store vendors to provide secure and reliable e-commerce transactions for customers and to inform store customers they have a secure server connection by the URL in their browser which will read https://. QVR requires Site store vendors to protect customers by using processes to minimize the risk of fraud.

4.1. RISK OF INTERCEPTION. However, whenever you give out personal information online, there is a risk that third parties may intercept and use that information. We cannot guarantee the security of any information you disclose online. By using a Site, you acknowledge and agree we do not guarantee the security of any data provided to or received by us through a Site and that any personal information, general information, or other data or information received from you through a Site is provided to us at your own risk, which you expressly assume.

4.2. RELEASE OF INFORMATION. QVR, its service partners, managers, and operators will release personal or general information without your consent for security purposes, when required by law, or to prevent imminent harm to any person or entity. We will disclose personal or general information upon receipt of a court order or subpoena, or to cooperate with a law enforcement investigation, which may include responding to requests and court orders from jurisdictions outside the United States. We fully cooperate with law enforcement agencies in identifying those who use our services for illegal activities. We reserve the right to report to law enforcement agencies any activities we in good faith believe to be unlawful, as determined in our sole discretion. Release of your personal or general information or data for security purposes, as described in this Policy, to any person or entity under any circumstances shall be based on a determination made solely by us, exercising our own discretion, permission for which is expressly granted by you to us under this Policy.

4.3. CONSENT TO PROCESSING. The Sites are operated in the United States. If you are in the European Union, Canada or elsewhere outside of the United States, please know that information we collect will be transferred to and processed in the United States.

You and QVR further agree: (i) any claim brought to enforce this Policy must be commenced within two (2) years of the cause of action accruing; (ii) no recovery may be sought or received for damages other than out-of-pocket expenses, except that the prevailing party will be entitled to costs and attorneys’ fees; and (iii) any claim must be brought individually and not consolidated as part of a group or class action complaint.

9. SEVERABILITY; WAIVER. If any provision is held by a court or other tribunal of competent jurisdiction to be unenforceable, such provision shall be limited or eliminated to the minimum extent necessary so this Policy shall otherwise remain in full force and effect. Any failure by QVR to exercise or enforce any right or provision of this Policy does not constitute a waiver of such right or provision. The failure of either you or QVR to exercise any right provided for shall not be deemed a waiver of any further rights.

10. GENERAL TERMS. Any rule of construction to the effect that ambiguities are to be resolved against the drafting party shall not be applied in interpreting this Policy. The section titles or headings in this Policy are included primarily for convenience of reference and shall not be construed alone, by themselves, without reference to all other relevant provisions of this Policy.
