We make every effort to protect your personal information, by employing a secure web server that supports industry-standard Secure Socket Layer (SSL) encryption. Here's how it works: SSL encryption is active in all areas where customer information is requested. You can check to see that you have entered an SSL-active area by looking in the lower left-hand corner of your screen. If you see an unbroken key or a closed lock (depending on your browser), you will know that SSL technology is in place and ready to encrypt your information. You can also check by looking at the URL line of your browser. When you are in an SSL-active area, the first letters of our website address will change from "http:" to "https:" (the 's' stands for 'secure'). When you place your order with us online, your information is transmitted across the Internet in an encrypted (scrambled) form, which is then decoded when it gets to us. We want you to feel comfortable placing your order online. Please send any additional questions or comments regarding this secure technology to info@crazyhatsandties.com. We take our responsibility to manage your personal information seriously. When we ask you to trust us with your personal information, we believe we owe it to you to explain fully how we process, manage, and protect the privacy of that information. We want you to understand what information about you does (and does not) become available to us and what we do (and don't do) with this information. Web Site Log Information When your Web browser requests information from our site, our Web server automatically records the date, time, and IP address from which your request came. From this information, we can sometimes, but not always, determine the domain and host name of the network provider to which you are connected, such as MSN, America Online, Netcom, your local Internet Service Provider, etc. This information does not identify you individually, and we do not seek to do this. You are an "anonymous" user unless you choose to send us email, fill out an online form to request more information, or purchase one of our products. We use the aggregate information in our visitor files to determine usage and "popularity" of various parts of our Web site. Sometimes we share web site log information with our business partners for advertising and promotional purposes, and to help improve our site and make it more useful to you.
