The Arkatents e-store -- presented by Intermountain Resources USA, and hosted by Yahoo! since 1998 -- offers secure on-line transactions with most current web browsers and PC firewalls. Orders are acknowledged by e-mail, usually within 2 hours of your request. See FYI (link left) for other pre-purchase information, including general warranty terms, seller liability limits, and our limited Returns Policy.
This merchant site is hosted by Yahoo!: Yahoo! hosts our core on-line catalog, SSL e-commerce system, and most other processing of customer & payment data. Yahoo! may use computer information cookies for page statistics and better on-line fraud prevention (including security IP address tracking) and automatically collects all required order information, but may otherwise only use this information in the aggregate outside of usual and customary law enforcement and legal contractual requirements with related and duly authorized parties such as merchant processing service suppliers.
If you accessed this store through Yahoo! Shopping, Yahoo! automatically collects information about your web shopping experience. Please see Yahoo!'s Privacy Policy for more about how Yahoo! uses this information, and other terms of Yahoo! system access.
We also contract from time to time with Yahoo! Search Marketing, Google, GoDaddy, PayPal, eBay, MEPAR Electronic Publications, ClixGalore, Shopping.com, BizRate, eCrater, and/or similar online promotional and web sales services, to monitor our various retail and informational pages, for the purpose of gauging web traffic, statistics, advertisement click-thrus, security settings, browser IP origin, and/or other activities. System cookies, web beacons, and/or other monitoring technologies may be used to compile anonymous statistics on our site visitors, for improved site security and promotional planning.
Except for secure order processing requirements and/or periodic and optional customer ratings responses (see Use of Feedback below for related information), no personally identifiable data is collected by or transferred to Yahoo! Search Marketing or other vendors during this statistical process. These uses and limitations do not restrict our potential contacts with applicable law enforcement agencies, web service providers, and/or business trade associations, in the event of suspected credit card fraud, intellectual property theft, or orchestrated system attacks or other abuse.
We collect personal information needed for (1) order processing, (2) payment & recipient verification, (3) product warranty and customer service, and (4) on-going promotions and store maintenance. We do not direct, provide, or transfer any personal customer data outside of these basic business needs (and we don't re-sell or trade any personal entity data, to mailing list brokers or other unrelated parties, at any time).
We do employ web site counters and banners that track page views and click trails, including use of computer information cookies and IP address tracking, for our regular promotional planning, e-store improvements, and on-going site security, but we don't spam mail, site lock, or otherwise manipulate that data to the known offense of our customers. [Affiliate partner contacts, narrative links, and trade banners are provided as a courtesy and for general information only, and do not constitute our endorsement of any specific product use, outdoor activity, public or private enterprise, brand offer, other web site contents, and/or related service.]
NO SPAM: e-Receipts and automatic order status updates may include brief promotional information and special offers for our most recent customers, but we do not use or maintain mailing lists, except for order processing updates and warranty or other important sales & service information. We do not send separate promotional e-mail at any time.
Any address, credit, or payment information is strictly held for order, shipment, and warranty processing reasons only: This information is NEVER offered by us to any unrelated party, and is protected on-line by the dedicated Yahoo! Store secure socket layer processing system (contact your software providers for updated technical background, to include suggested browser privacy settings and PC security firewalls, for optimum on-line personal security and enhanced user performance).

This release does NOT apply to your private credit, entity, or other purchase ID data, covered elsewhere herein.

NOTE: This site employs real-time payment matrix fraud monitors including computer information cookies and IP address tracking, for our mutual benefit. Bogus entity and purchase data may be forwarded to merchant banking services and law enforcement, as applicable. TRANSACTION FRAUD and other void payments will be prosecuted to the maximum extent allowed by law, including a $25 fee on returned checks or other delinquent and/or dishonored funds, plus all legal and service charges (including all collections costs and related processing fees). A $25 (twenty-five dollar) per event late payment fee plus 1.5% monthly interest will apply for any erroneous reversals of valid sales charges or other such dishonored payments, including for improper negations of valid transactions reported as unrecognized; read your credit card statement carefully for Intermountain Resources purchase posting (store name may be abbreviated) to avoid these late payment fees.
