We know that you
care how information
about you is used and

appreciate your trust
that we will do so
carefully and
sensibly. This notice
describes our privacy

What Personal
Information About
Customers Does This
Site Gather?
The information we
learn from customers
helps us personalize
and continually
improve your shopping
experience at this
site. 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
this
site.
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
this
site
if we
cannot
recognize
you,
we
want
you to
be
aware
that
these
tools
exist.
-
Information
from
Other
Sources:
We
might
receive
information
about
you
from
other
sources
and
add it
to our
account
information.
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 in
the purchasing
process,
personalized
greetings, and
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
This site's
coolest
features, and
we recommend
that you leave
them turned
on.
Does This
Site 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 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.
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,
providing
search
results
and
links
(including
paid
listings
and
links),
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
customers
on
behalf
of
other
businesses.
When
we do
this,
we do
not
give
that
business
your
name
and
address.
-
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
unlikely
event
that
we are
acquired
or
assigned,
customer
information
will
of
course
be one
of the
transferred
assets.
-
Protection
of our
store
and
Others:
We
release
account
and
other
personal
information
when
we
believe
release
is
appropriate
to
comply
with
the
law;
enforce
or
apply
our
Terms
and
Conditions
of Use
and
other
agreements;
or
protect
the
rights,
property,
or
safety
of
this
company,
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?
This site
gives you
access to a
broad range of
information
about your

your
interactions
with this site
for the
limited
purpose of
viewing and,
in certain
cases,
updating that
information.

This site
does not sell
products for
purchase by

sell
children's
products for
purchase by

Conditions
of Use,
Notices, and
Revisions
If you
choose to
visit this
site, your
visit and any
dispute over
privacy is
subject to
this Notice
and our Terms
and Conditions
of Use,
including

the law of the
state of
Washington. If
you have any

privacy at
this site,

it.
Our business
changes constantly,
and our Privacy Notice
and the Terms and
Conditions of Use will
change also. 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. 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.
