| At CIB
Media, we recognize and respect the importance
of maintaining the privacy of our customers and
friends and have established this privacy policy
as a result. Below we describe why we gather customer
and member information, what information we collect,
how we collect it, what we use the information
for and how you can instruct us if you prefer
to limit the use of that information.
Why do we
gather information?
Since our inception, CIB Media
has consistently provided our customers with quality
goods and excellent customer service. We gather
personal information to allow us to process your
orders and to provide an enhanced and more personalized
shopping experience.
Through our on-line
ordering and registration process,
- We ask you to provide information
about you to enable us to better offer you
the services we provide.
- We use the information to provide
offers and promotions from CIB Media that
we believe will be of interest to you.
- We analyze what our customers
like and don't like about our current products
so that we can better design our goods and
services.
- We use information about your
shopping preferences and on-line shopping
frequency in order to make our products and
services more valuable to you.
What information
do we gather?
When you order from our web
site, we collect the following information: your
name, telephone number, billing information (credit
card number, expiration date and billing address),
products purchased, and the recipient's name,
address and telephone number. In addition, when
you register as a member, we request some additional
information about your interests, birth date,
shopping preferences and activities.
How we use
"cookies"
A "cookie" is a small file
stored on your computer by a web site which gives
you a numeric user ID and stores certain information
about your activity on the site. We use cookies
to let us know that you are a prior customer and
to provide certain features to you, for example
to store information on your product selections
as you shop on our site, but we do not store any
personal information or financial information
about you using cookies. Most web browsers automatically
accept cookies, but most allow you to instruct
your browser to prevent the use of cookies. However,
if you disable this feature, certain aspects of
CIB Media will not function properly.
How we use
the information we collect about you.
We use information we collect
from you to process your orders and to provide
an enhanced and more personalized shopping experience.
In addition, we periodically make such information
available to selected third parties who trade
or rent information for direct marketing purposes.
We do not make your e-mail addresses available
to third parties, although we may do so in the
future. However, you may instruct us not to share
information with third parties by following the
instructions provided below.
Your Security
Our web site encrypts your
credit card number prior to transmission over
the Internet using secure socket layer (SSL) encryption
technology. This technology works best when the
site is viewed using Microsoft's Internet Explorer
or Netscape Navigator.
How to remove
your information from our mailing lists.
If you prefer not to receive
information from, or to have us provide information
about you, to other companies and organizations,
please either write us at: Customer Satisfaction
Department CIB Media, P.O. Box 1208
Novato, CA 94948-1208. E-mail

In addition, if you also prefer not to receive
further product information and promotional mailings
and/or e-mails from us about our own products,
please indicate this in your instructions to
us and please include your mailing address.
Unless you indicate
otherwise, we will assume that you prefer to stop
receiving third party information and will continue
to receive information that we believe will interest
you about our own products and promotions. Removal
requests will be processed as soon as reasonably
practicable.

or correct information previously provided to
us, please send an e-mail with your new information
to CIB
Media.
