We reserve the right to make changes to this Policy at any time. If you want to make sure that you are up to date with the latest changes, we advise you to frequently visit this page. If at any point in time Littman Bros decides to make use of any personally identifiable information on file, in a manner vastly different from that which was stated when this information was initially collected, the user or users shall be notified by email as soon as reasonably practicable. Users at that time shall have the option as to whether to permit the use of their information in this separate manner.
This Policy applies to Littman Bros, and it governs any and all data collection and usage by us. Through the use of the Site, you are therefore consenting to the data collection procedures expressed in this Policy.
We gather various types of Personal Information from our users, as defined and explained in more detail below, and we use this Personal Information internally in connection with our Site, including to personalize, provide, and improve our Site, to allow you to set up a user account and profile, join our membership group, to contact you and allow other users to contact you, to fulfill your requests from us and to analyze how you use the Site. In certain cases, we may also share some Personal Information with third parties, but only as described below.
Please note that this Policy does not govern the collection and use of information by companies or websites Littman Bros does not control, or by individuals not employed or managed by us. If you visit a website that we mention or provide a link to or otherwise reference, be sure to review its privacy policy before providing such website with information. You should review the privacy policies and statements of any website you choose to use or frequent to better understand the way in which websites garner, make use of and share the information collected.
Specifically, this Policy seeks to inform you of the following:
A. Information You Provide:
“Personal Information" means any information which, either alone or in combination with other information we hold about you, identifies you as an individual, including, for example, your contact information such as your name, email address, telephone number, age, as well as any other non-public information about you that is associated with or linked to any of the foregoing data.
"Anonymous Data" means data that is not associated with or linked to your Personal Information; Anonymous Data does not, by itself, permit the identification of individual persons. We collect Personal Information and Anonymous Data and a few other categories of information, from various different sources, as described below.
We receive your information in a variety of different ways, including, but not limited to, the following:
Please note that you can choose not to provide us with certain information, but this may limit the features of the Site you are able to use.
We may collect certain information (which does not identify you as an individual) about your use of the Site through the use of tracking technologies or by other passive means. This “passively collected” information includes, but is not limited to, the domain name of the website that allowed you to navigate to the Site, search engines used, the internet protocol ("IP") address used, the length of time spent on the Site, the pages you looked at on the Site, other websites you visited before and after visiting the Site, the type of internet browser you have, the frequency of your visits to the Site, and other relevant statistics, including, without limitation, the following:
Generally, Littman Bros may use the information gathered to provide, improve, and develop our Site and the Services we provide to you, to communicate with you, to offer you a better service and user experience and to protect us and our users. When you interact with or make use of the Site, we use a variety of technologies to process the Personal Information that we collect about you for various reasons:
We do not sell, rent, trade, or otherwise share Personal Information collected through the Site because we are committed to maintaining your trust, except as described below:
We keep your Personal Information only as long as necessary to provide you with the Littman Bros service and for legitimate and essential business purposes, such as maintaining the performance of the Site, making data-driven business decisions about new features and offerings, complying with our legal obligations and resolving disputes. We keep some of your Personal Information for as long as you are a user of the Site and the Littman Bros service.
If you request, we will delete or anonymize your Personal Information so that it no longer identifies you, unless we are legally allowed or required to maintain certain Personal Information, including situations such as the following:
As a matter of policy, we are committed to protecting your Personal Information and, as such, Littman Bros takes precautions in an effort to protect your information. When you submit sensitive information via the Site, we have safeguards in place intended to protect your Personal Information both online and offline. Wherever we collect sensitive information (e.g., credit card information), that information is encrypted and transmitted to us in a secure way.
While we use encryption in an effort to protect sensitive information transmitted online, we also seek to protect your information offline. Only employees who need the information to perform a specific job (for example, billing or customer service) are granted access to Personal Information. The computers and servers in which we store Personal Information are kept in a secure environment. This is all done to prevent any loss, misuse, unauthorized access, disclosure or modification of the user's Personal Information under our control.
California Consumer Privacy Act of 2018; Effective January 1, 2020:
If you are a California resident, you may have some additional privacy rights regarding the disclosure of your Personal Information by Littman Bros, or its affiliates and subsidiaries, or to a third-party and we have prepared additional disclosures and notices consistent with the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA). California residents may not be discriminated against for exercising any of the rights described therein.

Do Not Track
Some browsers have a “Do Not Track” feature that lets you send a request to websites to not track your online activities. We, like many other retailers, do not honor those requests.
At any time, you can request access to your Personal Information, request that any inaccuracies be corrected, or request that comments or explanations be added to records about you.
In an effort to prevent unauthorized changes, we may ask for certain information to verify your identity before we process such requests.
Although we will endeavor to make your requested changes, in some cases (for example, if it requires a disproportionate technical or practical cost or effort or if it conflicts with our legal obligations or business requirements), we may be unable to do so completely. Should this occur, we will communicate that to you.
