Security
and Privacy Policy
Your trust and satisfaction is our first priority.
We know your privacy is very important and that is
why we take special care to safeguard the
confidentiality and security of your information.
How Do We Protect the
Information You Provide?
We use industry standard Secure Sockets Layer (SSL)
encryption to safeguard all sensitive data
transmitted to us. This means that your personal
information - including credit card number, name,
expiration date, and billing information - is
encrypted so that it cannot be read by anyone
else.
We also offer an extra layer of security when you
use a shared computer in a corporate or public
area. Even if you select the auto-login feature on
a machine that third parties might have access to,
your password and your credit card information
will NOT be displayed. Unlike other auto-login
programs, our system will require that you type in
your password every time, thus making sure it is
really you who has signed in, and not someone else
using the same computer.
Our Art Fulfillment Center (ArtSelect) is a
VeriSign Secure Site. The VeriSign seal at the
bottom of any page allows you to confirm that we
are who we say we are and that all the information
you provide will be protected every time you use
our service.
What Information Do We
Collect?
When you visit our site, our server automatically
collects non-personally identifiable information -
your internet service provider address and
information on the pages you access on our site.
In addition, we store information you provide when
you make a purchase, enter your e-mail address, or
send an e-card. We also collect information when
you volunteer to complete a survey.
How Do We Collect the
Information?
Like many Internet sites, we use
"cookies" to recognize returning
customers. Cookies are small pieces of information
that are stored by your browser on your computer's
hard drive. We use the cookies to recognize your
preferences and to keep track of items you've
added to your shopping cart.
What Do We Do with the
Information We Collect?
- By evaluating at how customers use our site,
we can offer better content, easier
navigation, and better checkout services.
- If you join our mailing list, we will offer
you updates about new products and services,
discounts, and special promotions. You can
join or leave our mailing list at any time.
Customers who supply us with a telephone
number will only receive calls from us
pertaining to orders they have placed.
- We use customer information in processing
transactions both within our company and with
third party vendors. Our third party vendors
are, by contract, restricted from using your
information in any way, except to help us
provide the products and services we offer you
on our site.
- We may provide customer information (but not
credit card information) to the affiliate
company or organization that co-brands this
site or promotes this site to its customers or
members.
How Can You Access the
Information Collected by Us?
You can access your financial information (e.g.,
credit card information--last four digits, and
account information), transaction history (e.g.,
purchase dates and amounts), and contact
information (e.g., name, addresses, and phone
numbers). You obtain this information by clicking
"My Account" (at the top of most pages),
and logging on with your name and password.
In addition, customers can obtain access to
financial, transaction, and contact information,
as well as correct inaccuracies in such
information by calling or writing us at the

periodically, as we may update it from time to
time. If our information practices change, we will
