Privacy Statement
We know that you care how your information is used, and we appreciate your
trust that we will use it carefully and sensibly. This notice describes our
privacy policy. By visiting us, you are accepting the privacy policy described
below.
1. What
Personal Information Do We Collect?
• Information You Provide. We receive and store information you enter. For
example, when you search for or buy a product or service, or when you supply
information such as your address, phone number or credit card. You can choose
not to provide certain information, but then you might not be able to take
advantage of some of our features. We use the information that you provide for
such purposes as responding to your requests, customizing future shopping for
you, improving our website, and communicating with you.
• Cookies. Like many websites, we use "cookies". Cookies are small
digital files that we transfer to your hard drive that allow us to recognize
you and to provide you with a customized shopping experience. If you do not
want us to use cookies, you can easily disable them from within your browser
program, but some site features may not work correctly.
• Other Information: Every computer has an IP (Internet Protocol) address. IP
addresses of computers used to visit this site are noted. In addition, we
automatically collect other information such as email addresses, browser types,
operating systems, and the URL addresses of sites clicked to and from this
site.
• Information from Other Sources. We might receive information about you from
other sources and add it to our account information. This may include updated
delivery and address information from our shippers or other sources so that we
can correct our records and deliver your next purchase or communication more
easily.
2. How Do
We Use Your Information?
• Customized Shopping. We use your information to better serve you by providing
a customized shopping experience. As noted above, you may “opt-out” of this
customization, and you are also not required to create an account to shop.
• Agents. We employ other companies and individuals to perform functions on our
behalf. Examples include delivering packages, sending postal mail and e-mail,
and processing credit card payments. They have access to personal information
needed to perform their functions, but may not use it
for other purposes.
• Special Offers. We may send you special offers from time to time, unless you choose to “opt-out” of receiving such
offers. These offers will only come from GNRHS. We do not share your
information with third-party companies for marketing purposes.
• Law Enforcement. If we receive a lawful court order to release account or
other personal information then we will comply with
the law. We will also release information when necessary to protect the life, safety or property of others. This includes exchanging
information with other companies and organizations for fraud protection and credit
risk reduction.
3. How Do
We Protect the Security of Your Information?
• We work to protect the security of your information during transmission by
using Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) software, which encrypts information you
input.
• We use encryption to protect your information contained in our customer list.
• We use a firewall to protect against unlawful intrusion.
• We limit access to your information on a “need to know” basis.
• We reveal only the last 4 digits of your credit card numbers when confirming
an order. Of course, we transmit the entire credit card number to the
appropriate credit card company during order processing.
• It is important for you to protect against unauthorized access to your
password and to your computer. Be sure to sign off when finished using a shared
computer.
• No system can guarantee absolute security, just as the finest lock can not guarantee physical security. However, we take every
reasonable precaution to assure that your data is secure.
