You should be aware that when you are on our Web Sites you could be directed to other sites that are beyond our control. There are links to other sites from Silverstone sites that take you outside our service and will not be governed by our privacy policy.
Please keep in mind that whenever you give out personal information on-line-for example, via message boards or chat- that information can be collected and used by people you don’t know. Remember, NEVER give out personal information on a chat or bulletin board.
We strive to protect your identity and privacy, but we cannot guarantee the security of any information that you disclose on-line, and you do so at your own risk.
Security Policy
The importance of secure storage of your personally identifiable information is of utmost concern to us. We exercise great care in transmitting your information from your computer to our servers.
Only those employees who need access to your information in order to do their jobs are allowed access. Any employee who violates our privacy and/or security policies is subject to disciplinary action, including possible termination and civil and/or criminal prosecution.
We will NEVER ask you for your password in an unsolicited phone call or e-mail. Ultimately, you are responsible for maintaining the secrecy of your passwords and any account information.
Remember to sign out of Silverstone’s Web Site and close your browser window when you have finished what you’ve been doing; this is to ensure that others cannot access your personal information and correspondence if your computer is accessible to others or if you share with someone else or are using a computer in a public place like a library or an internet cafe.
