We will only use the personal information that you provide us for your specific requests that you make to us while visiting. Why do you need our phone number? We need your phone number if you want us to contact you, you entered a sweepstakes and email notification was unsuccessful, or you placed an order.

We will not utilize your number for unsolicited marketing calls. Why do you need our email address?

We take special care to safeguard the privacy, confidentiality, and security of the customer data entrusted to us. We have instituted policies to ensure that your personal information is handled in a highly responsible manner. How Do We Protect the Information You Provide? ArtSelect's secure server encrypts all of your personal information — including credit card number, name, expiration date, and billing information — so that it cannot be read by anyone else over the Internet. What Information Do We Collect? When you visit our Web page, our server automatically collects non-personally identifiable information — your internet service provider address and information on the pages you access on our site. In addition, we store information you provide when you make a purchase, enter your e-mail address, or send an e-card. We also collect information when you volunteer to complete a survey. How Do We Collect the Information? Like many internet sites, we collect information about visitors through use of "cookies." Cookies are small pieces of information that are stored by your browser on your computer's hard drive. Our cookies do not provide your identity, credit card information or any other personal information to us. We use the cookies to store in our data base your preferences and record session information such as the items you add to your shopping cart. If you wish to purchase from our site, you must accept the cookie so that we can process your order. What Do We Do with the Information We Collect? We use customer information in three basic ways. First, we use this information to improve the content of our Web pages to better meet customer needs or to update you about new products and services, discounts, special promotions or upcoming events that we offer. If you do not want us to provide these notifications, please so indicate in the account information area on the site, or let us know by calling or e-mailing us at the contact numbers and addresses noted below. Customers who supply us with their telephone numbers will only be called by us with information regarding orders they have placed. Second, we use customer information in processing transactions both within our company and with third party vendors. Our third party vendors are contractually-restricted from using your information in any manner, other than in helping us to provide you with the products and services available on our site. Third, we may provide customer information (but not credit card information) to companies and organizations who brand our site or who promote our site to their customers or members. How Can You Access the Information Collected by Us? You can access financial information (e.g., credit card information (last four digits) and account information), transaction information (e.g., dates on which customers made purchases as well as amount and types of purchases), and contact information (e.g., name, addresses, and phone numbers). You obtain this information by clicking "your account" (which is at the top of every page), logging on with your name and password, and then checking your account. In addition, customers can obtain access to financial, transaction and contact information, or correct inaccuracies in such information, by calling or writing us at the numbers and addresses below. You can also correct inaccuracies at check-out before you actually purchase. Changes in Our Privacy Policy We suggest that you review our privacy policy periodically, as we may update it from time to time. For example, we may use customer information for new, unanticipated uses not previously disclosed herein. If our information practices change, we will post the policy change to our Web site and provide you with the ability to opt out of these new uses. This policy was last updated on October 18, 2000. |
