Your privacy is important to us, and we know that you care about how information about your order is used and shared. We would like our international customers and customers shipping products internationally to be aware that cross-border shipments are subject to opening and inspection by customs and/or postal authorities.
Also, we may provide certain order, shipment, and product information, such as titles, to our international carriers, and such information may be communicated by the carriers to customs and/or postal authorities in order to facilitate customs clearance and comply with local laws.
If the order is a gift, the package is marked as "Gift", but the cost of the item is still stated on the customs form.
Customs authorities require the value of the gift item to be stated directly on the package.
We will also use information about you for purposes upon which the provision of our goods and services are not necessarily dependent. We may:
disclose information about you to third party agencies for credit checking purposes (which information may be shared with other organizations for the same purpose) use information about you to inform you (by post email or telephone) about other services we offer or which are offered by other companies within our group or any of the other companies with which we work use information about your account with us for our internal customer service monitoring and training purposes. We will only send you marketing activities (newsletter) if you have subscribed cq. given consent to receive such promotions.
We will endeavor to keep any information which we hold about you up to date and accurate. To help us to do this, please keep us informed if any of your details change. We will endeavor to protect your data against unauthorized or unlawful use. We use secure socket layer technology (ssl). This means that when you place orders with us on our secure online ordering system, all of the information is encrypted or scrambled, so that the data you send is an unintelligible string of seemingly random characters. When these characters are received by our web server, the server’s ssl software converts them back into useful information. The same thing happens with data you receive from our server. Your interactions are therefore private.
