Information We Disclose

We may disclose information you furnish to selected companies that perform services for us. All of these companies act on our behalf and are obligated to keep the information confidential and use it to provide only the services we have asked them to perform. For example, your PayPal information must be released to PayPal to confirm payment for products purchased on this site; your address is released to the delivery service to deliver products that you order; and we share order information with third-party affiliates that help us provide customer service. And Art in Bottles may disclose personal information in special cases, such as when we believe real harm might be caused were we not to do so.

Information Security

Personal information gathered through the site is secure and is maintained in a manner consistent with current industry standards. In order to serve you most efficiently, payment transactions and order fulfillment are handled by PayPal and USPS, UPS or FedEx. They receive only the information needed to verify and authorize your payment information and to process and ship your order. Unfortunately, no data transmitted over the internet can be guaranteed to be perfectly secure.

Cookies

We do not use cookies to track the activity of anyone on our site except in the shopping cart facility offered on our book pages. To operate, the shopping cart places a line of text into your local cookies.txt file and then makes reference to it (and updates it) during the course of your visit. Cookie information is stored on your computer, not on our servers. The shopping cart accesses that information to allow you to collect items in your personal shopping cart, remove them, change them, and add to them indefinitely without making a purchase. The shopping cart keeps track of your selections and calculates charges. The information stored in cookies is never collected, reviewed, or in any way made use of by us except in the automated processing of your submitted order. Two hours after the cookies are created, they are erased from your local file by your browser. At any time during your shopping cart order you can quit the process.
