Cedar Meadow Patio is a division of The Cedar Meadow. The privacy of any transaction between The Cedar Meadow and our customers is a top priority for us. To make our customers comfortable in placing their orders with us, we provide this notice detailing our online information practices and the control you, as a customer of The Cedar Meadow, have in the way your information is collected and used. To ensure that this information is easily accessible to our customers, we make it available on our homepage and at every point where personally identifiable information may be requested.
As an option on our payment processing page, customers will have the opportunity to select a check box called 'Send me offers and announcements from cedar-meadow-patio'. By selecting this option, our customers allow us to collect personal information consisting of name and email address to be used for promotional marketing.
We use any information that our customers provide while placing an order primarily to complete that transaction. Of this information, a customer's email address may be retained to inform that customer of future sales specials and other information only if that customer wishes to participate in a mailing list. A registration form is provided for any customer that wishes to receive newsletter correspondence detailing future specials, sales, new products, etc. A method of unsubscribing from such correspondence is provided in each newsletter email sent to our customers. Any information belonging to or describing a customer that does not wish to receive future correspondence is kept only for a duration of time that meets our return policy timeline, and then is discarded. We do not share any information collected with any outside parties except to the extent necessary to complete an order transaction.
We will use return email addresses to answer customer email we receive. Such addresses are not used for any other purpose and are not shared with outside parties, nor are they stored in such a way that they would be accessible to outside parties.
We will never use any personally identifiable information provided to us online in any way unrelated to the ones identified above without full notification to our customers and without presenting the option to our customers to prohibit such unrelated uses.
Protecting the privacy of the young is especially important. For that reason, we will not knowingly collect any personal information of children under the age of 18, or solicit sales from individuals under the age of 18.
To ensure that our customers' personal information stays private, we utilize the Yahoo! Store Secure Basket feature. This feature ensures that a customer making a purchase is directed to a secure page before entering any personal or billing information. The page can be identified as having enhanced security in a number of ways, the most obvious being the https:// in the page address in the web browser. Other indications of security will be available based on browser or browser settings, such as popup windows that indicate a secure page is being navigated to or icon indicators such as padlocks or other security symbols shown in the taskbar of the browser. Bringing up the page properties in newer browsers (by right-clicking on the page and selecting properties from the popup menu) will show that https:// pages connect using 128 bit encryption. The properties window should also display a link or button to access secure certificate information. Certificates are computer generated keys that prevent outside parties from intercepting or decoding information sent from a secure page. The above methodology is routinely and standardly used on E-Commerce websites to conduct any submission and collection of personal information securely.
