We
respect the privacy of our newsletter subscribers, customers, contacts, those
who answer our surveys and fill out our questionnaires. It is our policy:
- Choice and consent. To respect the
purpose for which our visitors gave us information. We give users choice and consent
over how their personal information is used, and remove names immediately upon
request.
- Third party use.
To not sell, rent, or loan our subscriber or customer lists to third parties for
e-mail marketing. While we sell advertising in our e-mail publications to other
companies, we do not allow third parties any other use of these subscriber lists.
- Unsubscriptions. To send our
periodicals only to those who request them (that is, opt-in). We immediately unsubscribe
those who request it through convenient unsubscribe links in every e-mailing.
Our welcome message to subscribers and every issue of our newsletters clearly
explain how to unsubscribe. We keep our subscription lists as clean as possible
to prevent obsolete e-mail addresses to take unnecessary bandwidth.
- Cookies.
To use cookies in a responsible manner to help our visitors, not snoop
on them. We use cookies (1) to help rotate advertising and specials, (2) to identify
shoppers with their shopping carts via PayPal, (3) to make it easy to order a
second time, (4) to give proper credit for sales made through links on our affiliates'
sites, and (5) to prevent users from experiencing our pop-up subscription box
more than once. We do NOT collect or use information from cookies to develop a
profile about our visitors or shoppers.
- Security.
To store subscriber and password files with personal information in a
secure manner. We store such files in areas not accessible to Web browsers, behind
password protection, or off-line.
- Termination.
To continue this policy beyond the termination of our company. If a majority
portion of the assets of our company were to be acquired by another organization,
that might include our subscriber and other lists, but only as part of a clear
agreement binding that organization to abide by the spirit and letter of our privacy
policy.
- Policy Changes. We
may change our policy at any time by modifying this page and posting it 10 days
before it takes effect.
If you have any concerns
or questions about our privacy policy or information collected on our sites, or
would like to be nofied when we change our policy, please contact
us and we will reply promptly. |
