We collect the following information
Information that you provide us is received and stored along with any information you enter on our website or that you give us in any other way. You can choose not to provide certain information, but this will limit your ability to purchase products offered on our website.
When you place an order with us, your contact information is used to communicate with credit companies, US Postal Service and other shipping companies. You may opt-out of these communications by canceling your order.
We use customer contact information to customize future shopping, to improve our website, to send you information about our company, and to inform you of sales and special offers. If after receiving a non-order related e-mail you do not want to receive such e-mails in the future, feel free to Contact Us or Opt-Out when receiving the e-mail.
We obtain information about you when you search, make a purchase, communicate with customer service, or post information on the website. For example, you provide information when you search for a product, place an order, provide information to update or create your account, communicate with us by phone, e-mail, or create any wish list. The information collected typically includes your name, address, and phone number, credit card information, people to whom purchases have been shipped, including addresses and phone numbers, contents of reviews, and any other personal information that you provide to us.
Automatic collection of information: If you purchase any products online, or have any other interaction with our website, we will receive and store information that you provide or that is generated by your actions.
