Orders

If you purchase a product or service from us, we request certain personally identifiable information from you on our order form. You must provide contact information (such as name, email, and shipping address) and financial information (such as credit card number, expiration date).  

We use this information for billing purposes and to fill your orders.  If we have trouble processing an order, we will use this information to contact you.

Security

The security of your personal information is important to us.  When you enter sensitive information (such as credit card number) on our  order forms, our third party payment processors encrypt that information using secure socket layer technology (SSL).

We follow generally accepted industry standards to protect the sensitive information submitted to us, both during transmission and once we receive it.  No method of transmission over the Internet, or method of electronic storage, is 100% secure, however.  Therefore, while we strive to use commercially acceptable means to protect your personal information, we cannot guarantee its absolute security.

If you have any questions about security on our Web site, you can send email us at info@especiallyforspecialkids.com

Surveys

From time-to-time we may provide you the opportunity to participate in surveys on our site.  If you participate, we will request certain personally identifiable information from you. Participation in these surveys is completely voluntary and you therefore have a choice whether or not to disclose this information.  The requested information typically includes contact information (email address).

We use this information to improve our services to our customers.

We use a third party service provider to conduct these surveys; that company is prohibited from using our users’ personally identifiable information for any other purpose.  We will not share the personally identifiable information you provide through a survey with other third parties.

Choice/Opt-out

If you no longer wish to receive our newsletter and promotional communications, you may opt-out of receiving them by following the instructions included in each newsletter or communication.

Log Files

As is true of most Web sites, we gather certain information automatically and store it in log files.  This information includes internet protocol (IP) addresses, browser type, internet service provider (ISP), referring/exit pages, operating system, date/time stamp, and clickstream data.  

We use this information, which does not identify individual users, to analyze trends, to administer the site, to track users’ movements around the site and to gather demographic information about our user base as a whole.  

We do not link this automatically-collected data to personally identifiable information.

Cookies

A cookie is a small text file that is stored on a user’s computer for record-keeping purposes. We do not use cookies on this site.

The third party shopping cart will issue a cookie containing your name and address should you choose to check the box during the checkout process to have this information "remembered" for future purchases.

Some affiliate shopping partners may place a cookie on your hard drive in order to identify that a link was done from our site to the affiliate site; the purpose of this is to properly credit affiliate commissions.

You can remove cookies by following directions provided in your Internet browser’s “help” file.

Clear Gifs (Web Beacons/Web Bugs)

We use clear gifs in our HTML-based emails to let us know which emails have been opened by recipients.  This allows us to gauge the effectiveness of certain communications and the effectiveness of our marketing campaigns.  If you would like to opt-out of these emails, please see “Choice and Opt-out.”
