Privacy
Statement
Information
Collection and Use
Paul’s Gourmet Brands, llc (doing business as Perky Paul’s
and Paul’s Perky Produce) 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. Perky Paul’s collects
information from our users at several different points on our website.
Orders
We request information
from the user on our order form. Here a user must provide contact information
(like name and shipping address) 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. This information may
be maintained on third party service sites (e.g., PayPal), and we have taken
all reasonable commercial and technical efforts to ensure SSL and related
encryption technologies and operational processes are taken to protect your data.
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 use an outside
shipping company to ship orders, like UPS or USPS. This company does not
retain, share, store or use personally identifiable information for any
secondary purposes.
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), 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 Microsoft Chrome
and Microsoft Explorer becomes locked, as opposed to un-locked, or open, when
you are just ‘surfing’. To learn more about SSL, follow this link. 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. Finally, the servers that
we store personally identifiable information on are kept in a secure
environment, behind a locked cage. If you have any questions about the security
at our website, you can send an email to helpdesk@paulsperkyproduce.com.
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 or update user’s personal data
provided to us. Please call us to update this information.
Legal Disclaimer
Though we make every effort to preserve your
privacy we may need to disclose personal information when required by law
wherein we have a good-faith belief that such action is necessary to comply
with a current judicial proceeding, a court order or legal process served on
our Web site. Usage of this website is subject to the exclusive jurisdiction
of the laws of the State of Washington.
Notification of Changes
If we decide to change our privacy policy, we will
post those changes on here 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.
