Torrez Performance’s Commitment to Privacy. Torrez Performance’s Privacy Policy (the “Policy”) has been developed as an extension of Torrez Performance’s commitment to combine quality products and services with integrity in dealing with users. The Policy is designed to assist you in the understanding of how Torrez Performance collects, uses and protects the personal information provided to us.
What Information Does Torrez Performance Collect? When you visit Torrez Performance’s Site, Torrez Performance collects two types of information: personal information you actively choose to disclose (“Active Information”) and Site use information collected, in a way not visible to you, on an aggregate anonymous basis as you and other users browse Torrez Performance’s Site (“Passive Information”).
Active Information You Choose to Provide. In order to gain use of the Site (become a “User”), Torrez Performance requires you to disclose the following information: Name, Address, Phone Number, Email Address.
Personally Identifiable Information. This refers to information that lets us know specifically about you, such as name, address, email address, telephone number, contact and billing information, credit card, and other transactional information.
Registration. When you apply to become an authorized User of Torrez Performance’s website, whether as a Customer purchasing Torrez Performance’s products or services or as an Independent Representative authorized to resell Torrez Performance’s products and services, Torrez Performance will collect your Personally Identifiable Information. This Personally Identifiable Information is securely stored and may be accessed on Torrez Performance’s website (the “Site”). You are assigned an identification number and select your own password – both are needed to enter the Site and to access your Contact Information. Please safeguard your password in a secure location as Torrez Performance is not responsible for breaches into the system when access is willingly provided.
Ordering. When you place an order for Torrez Performance’s products or services, Torrez Performance collects Personally Identifiable Information (such as name, contact and billing information, credit card, and other transactional information). Torrez Performance uses this information to deliver your order, process payment, and to communicate the status of your order.
Credit Card Storage. Credit card information collected at registration or for product orders is used only to process payment for the transaction and, generally, is not retained on Torrez Performance’s Site. However, you may voluntarily elect to securely store multiple credit cards to be used for product orders.

Torrez Performance uses this information to improve Torrez Performance’s products and services and to ensure that Torrez Performance is providing accurate disclosures.

You may customize your marketing preferences, or let us know if you do not wish to receive any promotional materials, by adjusting your Subscriptions & Email options on the Site.
Passive Information Collected.
Aggregate Information. This refers to information that does not, by itself, identify you as a specific individual. Such information would include the Uniform Resource Locator (“URL”) of the website that referred you to Torrez Performance’s Site, your Internet Protocol (“IP”) address (a number automatically assigned to your computer whenever you surf the web), your operating system and browser type, and any search terms that you enter on Torrez Performance’s Site. Torrez Performance’s web server aggregates this information in order to monitor the level of activity on Torrez Performance’s Site, evaluate its effectiveness, and improve the content or Torrez Performance’s Site in order to make your visit an easy and enjoyable experience.
