Ramsfield Enterprises 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 Ramsfield Enterprises,
you are accepting the practices described in this Privacy Notice.
What Personal Information About Customers Does Ramsfield Enterprises Gather?
The information we learn from customers helps us personalize and
continually improve your shopping experience at Ramsfield Enterprises. 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 Ramsfield Enterprises. Scroll to the bottom of this
page to see examples of the information we receive. A number of
companies offer utilities designed to help you visit Web sites anonymously.
Although we will not be able to provide you with a personalized
experience at Ramsfield Enterprises if we cannot recognize
you, we want you to be aware that these tools exist.
E-mail Communications:
To help us make e-mails more useful and interesting, we often receive
a confirmation when you open e-mail from Ramsfield Enterprises
if your computer supports such capabilities. We also compare our
customer list to lists received from other companies, in an
effort
to avoid sending unnecessary messages to our customers. If you
do not want to receive e-mail or other mail from us, please
adjust
your account to reflect this by selecting unsubscribe in the newsletters
menu.
Information from Other Sources:
For reasons such as improving personalization of our service (for
example, providing better product recommendations or special offers
that we think will interest you), we might receive information about
you from other sources and add it to our account information. We
also sometimes receive updated delivery and address information
from our shippers or other sources so that we can correct our records
and deliver your next purchase or communication more easily.
What About Cookies?
Cookies are alphanumeric identifiers that we transfer to your computer's
hard drive through your Web browser to enable our systems to recognize
your browser and to provide features such as automatic login and
permanent shopping carts for storage of items in your Shopping Cart
between visits.
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, cookies allow you
to take full advantage of some of Ramsfield Enterprises's coolest
features, and we recommend that you leave them turned on.
Does Ramsfield Enterprises 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 with the subsidiaries Ramsfield Enterprises controls and as described below.
Affiliated Businesses We Do Not Control:
We work closely with our affiliated businesses. In some cases, these
businesses operate stores at Ramsfield Enterprises or sell
offerings to you at Ramsfield Enterprises. In other cases,
we operate stores, provide services, or sell product lines jointly
with these businesses. You can tell when another business is involved
in your transactions, and we share customer information related
to those transactions with that business.
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.
Promotional Offers:
Sometimes we send offers to selected groups of Ramsfield Enterprises customers on behalf of other businesses. When we do this,
we do not give that business your name and address. If you do not
want to receive such offers, please adjust your account newsletter
preference as that is how we will send out our promotions.
Business Transfers:
As we continue to develop our business, we might sell or buy stores
or assets. In such transactions, customer information generally
is one of the transferred business assets. Also, in the unlikely
event that Ramsfield Enterprises, or substantially all of its
assets are acquired, customer information will of course be one
of the transferred assets.
Protection of Ramsfield Enterprises and Others:
We release account and other personal information when we believe
release is appropriate to comply with law; enforce or apply our
Conditions of Use and other agreements; or protect the rights, property,
or safety of Ramsfield Enterprises, our users, or others. This
includes exchanging information with other companies and organizations
for fraud protection and credit risk reduction.
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 PayPal as one of our payment processors, they process the
credit cards, so Ramsfield Enterprises will NEVER see you credit
card number. Paypal protects your privacy and information by using
Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) software, which encrypts information
you input.
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.
What Information Can I Access?
Ramsfield Enterprises gives you access to the following information
about you for the limited purpose of viewing and, in certain cases,
updating that information. This list will change as our Web site
evolves.
Your Account
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 Ramsfield Enterprises features as Automatic login,
and permanent shopping carts. You can add or update certain information
on pages such as those listed in the "My Account" pages.
When you update information, we usually keep a copy of the prior
version for our records.
If you do not want to receive e-mail or other mail from us, please
adjust your account to reflect this in the newsletter menu.
Children
Ramsfield Enterprises 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 Ramsfield Enterprises only with
involvement of a parent or guardian.
Conditions of Use, Notices, and Revisions
If you choose to visit Ramsfield Enterprises, your visit and
any dispute over privacy is subject to this Notice and our Conditions
of Use, including limitations on damages, arbitration of disputes,
and application of the law of the state of Washington. If you have
any concern about privacy at Ramsfield Enterprises, please
send us a thorough description, and we will
try to resolve it. Our business changes constantly. This Notice
and the Conditions of Use will change also, and use of information
that we gather now is subject to the Privacy Notice in effect at
the time of use. We may e-mail periodic reminders of our notices
and conditions, unless you have instructed us not to, but you should
check our Web site frequently to see recent changes.
