| Applewood Books Privacy Notice |
 |
|
|
Applewood Books knows that you care how information about you is used and shared, and we appreciate your trust that we will do so carefully and sensibly. This notice describes our privacy policy.
By visiting Applewood Books, you are accepting the practices described in this Privacy Notice.
What Personal Information About Customers Does Applewood Books Gather?
The information we learn from customers helps us personalize and continually improve your shopping experience at Applewood Books. Here are the types of information we gather.
Information You Give Us:
We receive and store any information you enter on our Web site or give us in any other way. You can choose not to provide certain information, but then you might not be able to take advantage of many 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 stores, and communicating with you.
Automatic Information:
We receive and store certain types of information whenever you interact with us. For example, like many Web sites, we use "cookies," and we obtain certain types of information when your Web browser accesses Applewood Books.
E-mail Communications:
If you do not want to receive e-mail or other mail from us, please adjust your Applewood Books's features.
Does Applewood Books Share the Information It Receives?
Information about our customers is an important part of our business, and we are not in the business of selling it to others. We share customer information only as described below and with subsidiaries that Applewood Books controls that either are subject to this Privacy Notice or follow practices at least as protective as those described in this Privacy Notice.
Affiliated Businesses We Do Not Control:
We work closely with our affiliated businesses. In some cases, these businesses operate stores at Applewood Books or sell offerings to you at Applewood Books. In other cases, we operate stores, provide services, or sell product lines jointly with these businesses. You can tell when a third party is involved in your transactions, and we share customer information related to those transactions with that third party.
Agents:
We employ other companies and individuals to perform functions on our behalf. Examples include fulfilling orders, delivering packages, sending postal mail and e-mail, removing repetitive information from customer lists, analyzing data, providing marketing assistance, processing credit card payments, and providing customer service. They have access to personal information needed to perform their functions, but may not use it for other purposes.
Business Transfers:
As we continue to develop our business, we might sell or buy stores, subsidiaries, or business units. In such transactions, customer information generally is one of the transferred business assets but remains subject to the promises made in any pre-existing Privacy Notice (unless, of course, the customer consents otherwise). Also, in the event that Applewood Books, or its parent Applewood Books, Inc. are sold, or substantially all of the assets are acquired, customer information will of course be one of the transferred assets.
Protection of Applewood Books and Others:
We release account and other personal information when we believe release is appropriate to comply with the law; enforce or apply our and other agreements; or protect the rights, property, or safety of Applewood Books, our users, or others. This includes exchanging information with other companies and organizations for fraud protection and credit risk reduction. Obviously, however, this does not include selling, renting, sharing, or otherwise disclosing personally identifiable information from customers for commercial purposes in violation of the commitments set forth in this Privacy Notice.
With Your Consent:
Other than as set out above, you will receive notice when information about you might go to third parties, and you will have an opportunity to choose not to share the information.
How Secure Is Information About Me?
We work to protect the security of your information during transmission by using Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) software, which encrypts information you input.
We reveal only the last five 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.
Which Information Can I Access?
Applewood Books gives you access to information about your account and your interactions with Applewood Books for the limited purpose of viewing and, in certain cases, updating that information.
What Choices Do I Have?
As discussed above, you can always choose not to provide information, even though it might be needed to make a purchase or to take advantage of such Applewood Books features.
You can add or update certain information on pages such as those listed in the "Which Information Can I Access?" section above.
If you do not want to receive e-mail or other mail from us, please adjust your account settings. From time to time we may alter our Condiitons of Use and other legal notices from us, such as this Privacy Notice. Those changed notices will govern your use of Applewood Books, and it is your responsibility to review them for changes.)
The Help portion of the toolbar on most browsers will tell you how to prevent your browser from accepting new cookies, how to have the browser notify you when you receive a new cookie, or how to disable cookies altogether. However, you will not be able to use some features of this site if you do not use cookies.
Children
Applewood Books does not sell products for purchase by children. We sell children's products for purchase by adults. If you are under 18, you may use Applewood Books only with the involvement of a parent or guardian.
Conditions of Use, Notices, and Revisions
If you choose to visit Applewood Books, your visit and any dispute over privacy is subject to this Notice. If you have any concerns over your experience at our site, please send us a thorough description to customercare@awb.com, and we will try to resolve it.
Our business changes constantly, and our Privacy Notice and the Conditions of Use will change also. You should check our Web site frequently to see recent changes. Unless stated otherwise, our current Privacy Notice applies to all information that we have about you and your account. We stand behind the promises we make, however, and will never materially change our policies and practices to make them less protective of customer information collected in the past without the consent of affected customers.
