Use of Cookies
Cookies are an industry standard used by most major Websites.
When you view our Website we may store some information in the
form of a "cookie" or similar file. Cookies are small pieces of
information stored on your hard drive, not on our site. Cookies
do not spy on you or otherwise invade your privacy, and they
cannot invade your hard drive and steal information. Rather, they
help you navigate a Website as easily as possible. We use cookies
to improve the quality of our services, deliver content specific
to your interests and to prevent you from reentering all your
registration data at each connection. Audiovox uses OwnerIQ, Inc.
to place advertisements for our products and services and those
of third parties on our Website and third-party sites. OwnerIQ
uses cookies and other technologies such as Web beacons or tags
to measure the effectiveness of our ads and to determine the
display of content and advertising to you based on your interests
both on our site , as well as on third-party sites where you may
visit. To support this interest based advertising solution,
OwnerIQ may use anonymous information about your visits to our
and other Web sites. The information collected and used by
OwnerIQ is always anonymous, and does not enable any third-party
to identify you individually. For more information about
OwnerIQ's Privacy Policy, please click here. Although it is our

Security
Our site has industry standard security measures in place to
protect the loss, misuse and alteration of the information under
our control. When users submit sensitive information via the
website, your information is protected both online and off-line.
While there is no such thing as "absolute security" on the
Internet, we make good faith efforts to take every step to ensure
the safety of your personal information, whenever reasonably
possible.
Should we ask to enter sensitive information (such as credit
card number), that information is secure and protected with
secure socket layer (SSL) technology to help keep the personal
information you provide on this Website secure. While on a secure
page the lock icon on the bottom of Web browsers such as
Microsoft Internet Explorer becomes locked, as opposed to
un-locked, or open, when you are just "surfing".
