Information Collection and Use
Kelly’s Country Corner is the sole owner of the information
collected on this site. We will not sell, share, or rent this
information to others in ways different from what is disclosed
in this statement. Kelly’s Country Corner collects information
from our users at several different points on our website.
Registration
In order to use this website, a user must first
complete the registration form. During registration a user is
required to give their contact information (such as name and
email address). This information is used to contact the user
about the services on our site for which they have expressed
interest.
Orders
We request information from the user on our order
form. Here a user must provide contact information (like name
and shipping address, tax id etc.) and financial information
(like credit card number, expiration date). This information
is used for billing purposes and to fill customer's orders. If
we have trouble processing an order, this contact information
is used to get in touch with the user. FOR YOUR
SECURITY KELLY'S COUNTRY CORNER DOES NOT RETAIN CREDIT CARD
INFORMATION AFTER COMPLETION [SHIPPING] OF THE TRANSACTION.
Cookies
A cookie is a piece of data stored on the user's hard
drive containing information about the user. Usage of a cookie
is in no way linked to any personally identifiable information
while on our site. Once the user closes their browser, the
cookie simply terminates. For instance, by setting a cookie on
our site, the user would not have to log in a password more
than once, thereby saving time while on our site. If a user
rejects the cookie, they may still use our site. The only
drawback to this is that the user will be limited in some
areas of our site.
Log Files
We use IP addresses to analyze trends, administer the
site, track user's movement, and gather broad demographic
information for aggregate use. IP addresses are not linked to
personally identifiable information.
Sharing
We may use an outside shipping company to ship
orders, and a credit card processing company to bill users for
goods and services. These companies do not retain share, store
or use personally identifiable information for any secondary
purposes.
Links
This web site contains links to other sites. Please
be aware that we [Kelly’s Country Corner] are not responsible
for the privacy practices of such other sites. We encourage
our users to be aware when they leave our site and to read the
privacy statements of each and every web site that collects
personally identifiable information. This privacy statement
applies solely to information collected by this Web site.
Newsletter
If a user wishes to subscribe to our newsletter, we
ask for contact information such as name and email address.
Surveys & Contests
From time-to-time our site requests information from
users via surveys or contests. Participation in these surveys
or contests is completely voluntary and the user therefore has
a choice whether or not to disclose this information.
Information requested may include contact information (such as
name and shipping address), and demographic information (such
as zip code, age level). Contact information will be used to
notify the winners and award prizes. Survey information will
be used for purposes of monitoring or improving the use and
satisfaction of this site.
Security
This website takes every precaution to protect our
users' information. When users submit sensitive information
via the website, your information is protected both online and
off-line.
When our registration/order form asks users to enter sensitive
information (such as credit card number and/or social security
number), that information is encrypted and is protected with
the best encryption software in the industry - SSL. While on a
secure page, such as our order form, the lock icon on the
bottom of Web browsers such as Netscape Navigator and
Microsoft Internet Explorer becomes locked, as opposed to
un-locked, or open, when you are just 'surfing'
.
While we use SSL encryption to protect sensitive information
online, we also do everything in our power to protect
user-information off-line. All of our users' information, not
just the sensitive information mentioned above, is restricted
in our offices. Only employees who need the information to
perform a specific job (for example, our billing clerk or a
customer service representative) are granted access to
personally identifiable information. Our employees must use
password-protected screen-savers when they leave their desk.
When they return, they must re-enter their password to re-gain
access to your information. Furthermore, ALL employees are
kept up-to-date on our security and privacy practices. Every
quarter, as well as any time new policies are added, our
employees are notified and/or reminded about the importance we
place on privacy, and what they can do to ensure our
customers' information is protected. Finally, the servers that
we store personally identifiable information on are kept in a
secure environment.
If you have any questions about the security at our website,
you can contact us by clicking
here or
clicking on the Contact Us button above.
Correction/Updating Personal Information
If a user's personally identifiable information
changes (such as your zip code), or if a user no longer
desires our service, we will endeavor to provide a way to
correct, update or remove that user's personal data provided
to us. This can usually be done at the member account page or
by emailing our Customer Support.
Notification of Changes
If we decide to change our privacy policy, we will
post those changes on our Homepage so our users are always
aware of what information we collect, how we use it, and under
circumstances, if any, we disclose it. If at any point we
decide to use personally identifiable information in a manner
different from that stated at the time it was collected, we
will notify users by way of an email. Users will have a choice
as to whether or not we use their information in this
different manner. We will use information in accordance with
the privacy policy under which the information was collected. |
