To make this notice easy to find, we make it available on our homepage and
at every point where personally identifiable information may be requested.

The Way We Use Information
We use the information you provide about yourself when placing an order
only to complete that order. We do not share this information with outside
parties except to the extent necessary to complete that order.
We use the information you provide about someone else when placing an
order only to ship the product and to confirm delivery. We do not share
this information with outside parties except to the extent necessary to
complete that order.
We offer gift-certificates by which you can personalize a product you
order for another person. Information you provide to us to create a
gift-certificate is only used for that purpose, and it is only disclosed
to the person receiving the gift.
We use return email addresses to answer the email we receive. Such
addresses are not used for any other purpose and are not shared with
outside parties.
You can register with our website if you would like to maintain your own
shopping cart, as well as receive updates on our new products and
services. Information you submit on our website will not be used for this
purpose unless you fill out the registration form.
We use non-identifying and aggregate information to better design our
website and to share with advertisers. For example, we may tell an
advertiser that X number of individuals visited a certain area on our
website, or that Y number of men and Z number of women filled out our
registration form, but we would not disclose anything that could be used
to identify those individuals.
Finally, we never use or share the personally identifiable information
provided to us online in ways unrelated to the ones described above
without also providing you an opportunity to opt-out or otherwise prohibit
such unrelated uses.
Our Commitment to Data Security
To prevent unauthorized access, maintain data accuracy, and ensure the
correct use of information, we have put in place appropriate physical,
electronic, and managerial procedures to safeguard and secure the
information we collect online.
Our Commitment to Children's Privacy
Protecting the privacy of the very young is especially important. For
that reason, we never collect or maintain information at our website from
those we actually know are under 13, and no part of our website is
structured to attract anyone under 13.
How You Can Access Or Correct Your Information
You can access all your personally identifiable information that we
collect online and maintain by contacting us directly either through the
Feedback Form, mailing us directly through the postal system, or calling
us. We use this procedure to better safeguard your information.
You can correct factual errors in your personally identifiable information
by sending us a request that credibly shows error.
To protect your privacy and security, we will also take reasonable steps
to verify your identity before granting access or making corrections.
