How We Use the Information: Von Bargen’s uses personal information to understand your needs better, to provide better service, and to communicate with you (e.g., answer your questions, respond to your requests, send email promotions or process your resume). We will always provide you a way to opt-out of email promotions.
The non-personally identifiable information that Von Bargen’s collects online is used to measure the number of visitors to our site and to determine the parts of the site that users find useful based on the level of traffic to those parts.

If we share your personal information with a third party, such party will either be subject to the Von Bargen’s policies or contractually required to provide the same privacy protection as Von Bargen’s in handling your personal information.
Please note that Von Bargen’s will, under certain circumstances permitted or required by law or court order, collect, use, and/or disclose personal information collected online pursuant to procedures that do not require giving notice or providing other privacy protections (for example, in connection with law enforcement investigations).
