We offer gift-cards by which you can personalize a product you order for another person. Information you provide to us to create a gift-card is only used for that purpose, and it is only disclosed to the person receiving the gift.
We use return email addresses to answer the email we receive. Such addresses are NOT shared with outside parties. but may be used again to send you information we think may be of interest to you, or to update information. To insure you are receiving news of new releases, we ask that you sign up for our email mailing lists on the appropriate website, or send a written request, by mail or email, to receive any catalogue we may be mailing.
We use non-identifying and aggregate information to better design our website. For example, we may say that X number of individuals visited a certain area on our website, or that Y number of men and Z number of women filled out our registration form, but we would not disclose anything that could be used to identify those individuals.
Finally, we never use or share the personally identifiable information provided to us online in ways unrelated to the ones described above without also providing you an opportunity to opt-out or otherwise prohibit such unrelated uses.
