access to/collect information that you voluntarily give us via email or other direct
contact from you. We will not sell or rent this information to anyone.
We will use your information to respond to you, regarding the reason you

our organization, other than as necessary to fulfill your request, e.g., to ship an
order.
Unless you ask us not to, we may contact you via email in the future to tell you
about specials, new products or services, or changes to this privacy policy.

See what data we have about you, if any.

Security
We take precautions to protect your information. When you submit sensitive
information via the website, your information is protected both online and offline.
Wherever we collect sensitive information (such as credit card data), that
information is encrypted and transmitted to us in a secure way. You can verify
this by looking for a closed lock icon at the bottom of your web browser, or

personally identifiable information. The computers/servers on which we store
personally identifiable information are kept in a secure environment.

notify consumers.
Other Provisions as Required by Law

international treaties, or industry practices. It is up to you to determine what
additional practices must be followed and/or what additional disclosures are required. Please take special notice of the California Online Privacy Protection Act
(CalOPPA), which is frequently amended and now includes a disclosure
requirement for “Do Not Track” signals.

IMPORTANT NOTICE: This sample privacy notice and/or any guidance given by
BBB applies to the BBB Code of Business Practices and does not attempt to
provide legal advice or claim that this sample notice satisfies legal requirements
which may apply to your website, mobile application, or other online service.
Moreover, BBB requires businesses conducting e-commerce to post a notice,
however applicable laws may be broader in scope and require this of a wider
range of websites, mobile applications, or other online services. Please be aware
that different jurisdictions (federal, state, and/or foreign countries) may have
their own privacy requirements that may apply to anyone capable of reaching
your website, mobile application, or other online service, even if they are not

A privacy policy involves both legal and technological considerations.
You are hereby advised to consult an attorney and a qualified IT person

Privacy notice requirements are subject to change. You should make it a policy
to regularly review your privacy notice and practices to ensure you are keeping
up with changes to applicable laws, industry practices, and technology.
Safeguarding privacy is not done by simply adding a privacy notice. You must
also implement the proper policies, procedures, and safeguards and ensure your
employees, independent contractors, agents, and/or 3rd party partners as well as
the technologies you employ, are appropriate in accordance with applicable laws.
