When you set up your “My Swier Tire/NAPA®” Account you will be asked to provide your email address and a password, as well as provide information regarding your vehicle. The information you provide in your “My Swier Tire/NAPA®” Account allows Swier Tire/NAPA® to personalize searches and facilitate the ordering process. During registration of your “My Swier Tire/NAPA®” Account, Swier Tire/NAPA® will ask for your name, address, e-mail address and other personal information, including data about your automobile. The more information you voluntarily provide (and the more accurate it is), the better Swier Tire/NAPA® will be able to customize your experience.  
Ordering
Our website utilizes both a shopping cart and e-mail forms for customers to request information, products, and services. We may collect customers’ contact information (such as e-mail addresses) and financial information (such as account or credit card information). This information enables us to process and fulfill our customers’ orders and notify our customers of their order status. When you provide credit card information on our online form, you are connected to a secure server, which encrypts credit card information over the Internet.  
Surveys and Promotions
We may occasionally request information from users via surveys or contests. Participation in these surveys or contests is completely voluntary and the user therefore has a choice whether or not to disclose this information. Information requested may include contact information (such as name and shipping address), and demographic information (such as zip code, age, and/or income range). Contact information will be used to notify the winners and award prizes.  Survey information will be used for purposes of monitoring or improving the use and satisfaction of this site. We may also use this data to personalize the customer’s experience at our site, showing them content that we think they might be interested in, and displaying the content according to their preferences. In addition, this information may be used internally by Swier Tire/NAPA® for market analysis and other purposes.
