Inc. will be held with the utmost care, and will not be used in
ways that you have not consented to. A more detailed explanation about how we
safeguard your personal information is described below. If you have any
questions, please don't hesitate to let us
know.
- We use secured servers.
Your personal information provided through our online store is fully
secured and protected through Secure Socket Layers (SSL). All of your
personal information such as your name, email address, and credit card
number are encrypted and made unintelligible to hackers.
- We do not sell, rent, lease, or supply your personal information to any third
parties.
It is common in this day and age to buy a product or supply an email
address and then to receive significant amounts of unrelated mail from third
parties who have obtained your information from the place you made your
purchase. Unlike the norm, we guard your information and
do not sell it, rent it, lease it, or otherwise supply it to anyone else for any
purpose.
- All information provided to us is considered confidential.
Any personal information provided in our online store is used ONLY for
processing your order. We will not call or contact you by mail in the future, nor
use the information you provide for any purpose other than adding you to our own
low-traffic announcement email list if you opt-in or choose to be added to it.
- We would never intentionally send our customers unsolicited emails.
Users who make a purchase from our online store or who specifically request
to be subscribed are added to our Chaos Software Group email announcement mailing list.
All emails come specifically from us - we do not share or sell our email
lists with anyone but guard them as an important company asset. This list is
not a high-traffic list. You will be send an announcement from us only when
we have something we feel is significant to our users . Our email list is
also very easy to "opt-out" of to remove yourself from future
communications, should you choose to do so.
