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 general website. Once the user closes their browser, the cookie simply terminates. We may use session-based cookies to determine general effectiveness of marketing campaigns. In such cases, we increment an aggregate number indicating success for that marketing campaign, but do not tie it to any of your personally identifiable information. If a user rejects the cookie, they may still use our entire site.
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.
We may share aggregated demographic information with 3rd parties in the case they would like to know aggregate demographics of our audience. This is not linked to any personal information that can identify any individual person. We do not share personally identifiable information with 3rd parties.
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.
This security is enhanced by our use of firewalls protecting all of the Harris Avenue Gifts servers. We also do everything in our power to protect customer information off-line. All of our customers' information is restricted in our offices. Only employees who need the information to perform a specific job (for example, our customer service representative) are granted access to personally identifiable information.
Furthermore, ALL employees are kept up-to-date on our security and privacy practices.
Finally, the physical servers that we store personally identifiable information on are kept in a secure facility. This facility provides security 24 hours a day, 365 days a year and guaranties our servers against power outages by using automated backup power systems.
If you have any questions about the security at our website, you can send an email to harrisavenuegifts@yahoo.com
We send all new customers a verification email to verify email address. Customers may choose to receive information on products, services, special deals, and a newsletter. Out of respect for the privacy of our customers we present the option to not receive these types of communications.
If a customer's personally identifiable information changes (such as your email address), or if a user no longer desires our emails, we will endeavor to provide a way to correct and update that customer's personal data provided to us. This can be done by calling our telephone number at 1-650-583-5788, by emailing our Customer Support at harrisavenuegifts@yahoo.com, or by sending us a letter to Harris Avenue Gifts, attn: account updates, 55 Sherwood, Milbrae, CA 94030. If you would like your email account removed from our mailing list please state this in your communications and we will do this.
If we decide to change our privacy policy, we will prominently post those changes on our Homepage (located at http://harrisavenuegifts.com) so our customers 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. Customers 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.
Though we make every effort to preserve your privacy we may need to disclose personal information when required by law or in the good-faith belief that such action is necessary in order to conform to the edicts of the law or comply with a legal process served on our Web site.
