Information Collection and Use

The contact information including Name, Address and Telephone Number may be passed to suppliers and carriers in order to fulfill the order. If we have trouble processing an order, this contact information is used to get in touch with the user.
Security
We take 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 any form asks users to enter sensitive information (such as credit card number and/or social security number), that information is encrypted and is protected with the encryption software provided. While on a secure page, such as our order form, the lock icon on the bottom of Web browsers such as Netscape Navigator and Microsoft Internet Explorer becomes locked, as opposed to unlocked, or open, when you are just 'surfing'. 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 info@gudrum.com
