We use this information to monitor and improve our Sites.

Cookies:

Our Sites use a technology called "cookies". A cookie is a tiny element of data that our Sites can send to your browser, which may then be stored on your hard drive so we can recognize you when you return. All pages on our Sites where you are prompted to log in or that are customizable require that you accept cookies.

You may set your Web browser to notify you when you receive a cookie. However, should you decide not to accept cookies from our Sites, you will limit the functionality we can provide when you visit our Sites.

Tracer Tags

Our Sites may also use a technology called "tracer tags". These may also be referred to as "Clear GIFs" or "Web Beacons". This technology allows us to understand which pages you visit on our Sites. These tracer tags are used to help us optimize and tailor our Sites for you and other future website visitors.

Security Measures on our Sites

Secure Shopping

When you place orders on our Sites, all of your order information, including your credit or debit card number and delivery address, is transmitted through the Internet using Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) technology. SSL technology causes your browser to encrypt your order information before transmitting it to our secure server. SSL technology, an industry standard, is designed to prevent someone other than operators of our Sites from capturing and viewing your business information.

HD Supply Canada, Inc. also takes the following measures to protect your business information online:

  • Passwords: To provide you with an increased level of security, online access to your business information is protected with a password. We strongly recommend that you do not disclose your password to any third party. HD Supply Canada, Inc. will never ask you for your password in any unsolicited correspondence such as letters, phone calls or e-mail messages.
  • Order Information: Since any order information you provide to us on our Sites will be transmitted using a secure connection, if your Web browser cannot support this level of security, you will not be able to order products through our Sites.
  • No data transmission over the Internet can be guaranteed to be 100% secure. While we strive to protect your company's business information from unauthorized access, use or disclosure, HD Supply cannot ensure or warrant the security of any information you transmit to us on our Sites.
