Privacy Policy
Because protecting your privacy is very important to Web Shoppe, we operate this website under the following guidelines, to safeguard your personally identifiable information:
What personal information does Web Shoppe collect?
Web Shoppe asks when we need information that personally identifies you ("Personal Information"). For example, Web Shoppe asks for your name and e-mail address when you use the contact form. We also collect information about your navigation of our site, the type of operating system you use, and your IP address. From time to time, we may collect additional information for surveys or other promotions sponsored by Web Shoppe and/or its promotional partners. We use this information to operate our services, to help identify you, and to gather broad demographic information.
What are cookies and how does Web Shoppe use them?
Web Shoppe may place a "cookie" in the browser files of your computer. Cookies are small pieces of information or files that are stored on a user's computer by the Web server through a user's browser for record keeping purposes. The information can be retrieved to personalize, monitor, or regulate use of the site. Cookies allow Web Shoppe to automate access and data entry functions of the site, such as login information and to tailor the site to a user's preferences or interests. In addition, cookies allow Web Shoppe to track usage of the site to determine those areas of the site that are useful or popular (and those that are not), thereby enabling Web Shoppe to improve and update its service.
Will Web Shoppe ever send me direct mailings?
No. The only time you will ever receive any kind of mail from Web Shoppe is when you contact us first, requiring a reply. We do not send out promotional messages of any kind.
How do I protect my Personal Information in public forums?
Web Shoppe may at times offer interactive forums, such as messages boards and chat. Web Shoppe users should be aware that when they voluntarily disclose Personal Information to other users or to third parties on the Web Shoppe website, that information can be collected and used by others, and may result in unsolicited messages from other members or third parties. While Web Shoppe strives to protect your Personal Information, we cannot guarantee the security of any information that you transmit to Web Shoppe, and you are solely responsible for maintaining the secrecy of any personal information.
What about privacy on sites that Web Shoppe links to?
Web Shoppe may provide links to other Internet sites or partners. These sites have separate data and privacy practices independent of Web Shoppe, and we disclaim any responsibility or liability for their policies or actions.
Will Web Shoppe share my personal information with any third parties?
Web Shoppe will NOT disclose any Personal Information, except as described in this policy. Web Shoppe may disclose user information, including demographic data, in 3 instances only: 1) in an aggregated form that does not identify individual users in order to describe its services to prospective partners, advertisers and other third parties, and for other lawful purposes; 2) when we believe in good faith that the law requires it; and/or 3) to protect the rights or property of Web Shoppe or its visitors.
If you have any questions about our Privacy Policy, or if you believe Web Shoppe has not adhered to these principles, please contact me.
