How is my information used?
The personally identifiable information you provide will be used to support your customer relationship with King. Unless you have chosen to "opt-out" by notifying King at webmaster@kingpharm.com, King may sell, rent, or lease your personally identifiable information to, or share your personally identifiable information with, third parties. Your personally identifiable information may be shared with our agents, contractors or business partners in order that they may perform services for King, regardless of whether or not you have chosen to "opt-out" as set forth above.
We want to help you quickly find information on King and alert you to specific offers, updated information, and other new products and services from King. Accordingly, we may send you direct mailings or contact you by telephone about our various products and services or other products and services we feel may be of interest to you. You may choose not to receive such mailings or telephone calls by the means provided for in the mailings or by contacting us at webmaster@kingpharm.com.
King does research on our users' demographics, interests and behavior based on the information provided to us during your use of our Web site. This research is compiled and analyzed on an aggregated basis. Aggregated data does not include personally identifiable information. King may share this aggregated data with others.
We will release your personally identifiable information when we believe that such release is appropriate to (i) comply with the law; (ii) enforce or apply our Terms of Access and other agreements; or (iii) protect the rights, property or safety of King, our users or others. This includes, but is not limited to, exchanging information with other companies and organizations for fraud protection and credit risk protection. Also, as we continue to develop our business, we might sell or buy stores or assets. In such transactions, customer information generally is one of the transferred business assets. Also, in the unlikely event that King, or substantially all of its assets are acquired, customer information will of course be one of the transferred assets.
Please be aware that King advertisers or Web sites that have links on our site may collect personally identifiable information from you. The information practices of those Web sites linked to King either through advertisements or other hyperlinks are not covered by this privacy statement.

What else should I know about my privacy?
Third party Internet sites and services accessible through King have separate privacy and data collection practices, independent of us. King has no responsibility or liability for these independent policies or actions. Please be careful and responsible online. If you post personal information online that is accessible to the public, you may receive unsolicited messages from other parties in return. While we strive to protect your information, King does not ensure or warrant the security of any information through the transmission process, and you transmit information to King at your own risk.

What about my children and their use of your Web site?
Children should always ask a parent for permission before sending personal information to anyone online. King encourages parents to take an active role in their children's use of the Internet and to spend time online with their children. King will use its best efforts not to collect personal information for those identifying themselves as age 17 or under.
