Any information you provide will be kept
strictly
confidential. We do not sell, rent or distribute our mailing or e-mail
lists. After all, why would we want you to spend your hard earned money
anywhere else but here!
We retain the information needed to conduct
business; including your name and mailing address, if you provide an
e-mail address or telephone number we usually keep that on file in case
we want to contact you. The tax authorities and the card
companies require us to retain information about each
transaction. If you order on-line, use a card or Paypal or
order
on open account we retain a copy of the order in case there is a
question about the order. The information is not aggregated
or
tracked, so we cannot easily tell you what you have ordered from us. It
would take a lot of time and effort, and we don't have the time or
effort. We do track the source of an order (eg. a catalog,
advertisement, website, etc.) and total orders placed by customer. We
may also keep track of any particular interests or wants you let us
know about.
This is a "Ma & Pa" operation without
any sophisticated data processing capabilities. We do not
have
have computers that track, analyze, target you or your
purchases.
We do gather aggregate information about what pages are visited on our
website and how and how visitors got there (e.g. Google, another
website, internal link), however none of the information can be tracked
to an individual.
We will not bombard you with
"spam". We might send you an e-mail a few times a year to
notify
you of new items or specials. Please let us know if you do
not
want to receive any e-mails from us. We never make
unsolicited promotional phone calls. I dislike making
telephone
calls so we will probably never phone you except in response to a
question, an order or a phone message left by you. Unless you
request otherwise, we may occasionally let you know by e-mail or postal
mail of something we think may be of interest to you. We
probably
will send you catalogs by postal mail a few times a year. Let
us
know if you do not want to receive catalogs.
We use cookies as
part of the shopping cart. These are only used for the
placing of
your order. If you do not want to use cookies your order may
be
typed directly into the on-line order
page. Of
course, if you decide to place an order, we will need to ask you some
basic information needed to process your order. Your order
will
be processed by a by a real live, thinking (at least most of the time)
human, not a computer.
We occasionally have items shipped
directly from one of our suppliers, in which case we need to pass on
your address information onto them. Our suppliers are
reliable
and have promised to keep your information confidential.
If you have any questions, comments or would like any
personal, information deleted please
