appreciate your trust that we will do so carefully and sensibly. This notice
describes our privacy policy. By visiting this site, you are accepting the
practices described in this Privacy Notice.
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.

Information Can I Access?
This site gives you access to a broad range of information about your account
and your interactions with this site for the limited purpose of viewing and, in
certain cases, updating that information.

disputes, and application of the law of the state of Washington. If you have any
concern about privacy at this site, please contact us with a thorough
description, and we will try to resolve it.

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.
