shipping your order or offering customer service. These companies are
authorized to use your Personal Information only as necessary to provide these
services to us.
We

Third Party E-Commerce Solutions Provider
Our
shopping cart interacts with established PCI-DSS compliant third-party credit
processing vendors via SSL links. They host and collect your billing

third-party vendor via SSL links to manage processing of refunds and updates of
credit card and debit card numbers and expiration dates. These companies do not
use this information for any other purpose. We do not store credit card and
debit card numbers on our servers or systems.

industry standards to protect the Personal Information submitted to us, both
