| Groovy Goddess Privacy Policy![]() Groovy Goddess has created this privacy policy to demonstrate our firm commitment to privacy and the protection of your information. The following explains the ways information will be gathered and the choices you can make about these practices.
Groovy Goddess is herein referred to as "we," "us," or "Groovy Goddess."
What Information Do We Collect? How Do We Use It?
On some Groovy Goddess Web pages you can order products. The types of required order information collected when you submit your order are name, password, e-mail address, address, shipping and billing information, transaction, and credit card information. When you initiate a support request from our Web site, we also gather information about the type of Web browser and operating system you are using and send this information along with your support request to our customer service representatives so that they may respond more accurately to your request.
The Groovy Goddess Web site may also use "cookies". Cookies are small files written on your hard drive that help us identify members. Groovy Goddess uses your information to understand your needs and to provide you with better service. Specifically, we use your information to help you complete a transaction, to communicate back to you, to update you on service and benefits, and to personalize our Web site for you. Credit card numbers are used for payment processing only and are not used or retained for any other purposes.
Disclosure of Information
We may use aggregate non-personal information (i.e. information that does not include personally identifiable data) for statistical analysis of user behavior, product development, content improvement and marketing, promotional and advertising purposes. We may also sell and rent this aggregate non-personal information to select third party partners. Unless we tell you otherwise, we do not sell or rent your personally identifiable information to any third party.
Groovy Goddess may share very general information about our customers as a whole group with advertisers, business partners, sponsors and other third parties. For example, we might say that a certain percentage of our customers live in California, while a different percentage live in Massachusetts. We use this data to customize our service offerings and content based on your needs. This data is not personally identifiable.
Only in the case of our good-faith belief that the law requires it or to protect your or Groovy Goddess's rights or property, will we disclose customer information to proper law enforcement authorities even though you might have sent us an e-mail requesting that we do not share your information. This information may be necessary to identify, contact or bring legal action against anyone who may attempt to cause injury to another's rights or property.
Log Files
Our servers store IP addresses for all connections to the service. This data is analyzed in the aggregate for administration purposes and is not linked to your personal account. Occasionally, we may use the IP logs to gather information that might help Customer Support respond to an inquiry by you about your account, but will not do so without an initial action by you.
Tell Us What You Think
We welcome your comments regarding this website. However, any comments, feedback, notes, messages, ideas, suggestions or other communications (collectively, "Comments") sent to Groovy Goddess shall be and remain the exclusive property of Groovy Goddess. Your submission of any such Comments shall constitute an assignment to Groovy Goddess of all worldwide rights, titles and interests in all copyrights and other intellectual property rights in the Comments. Groovy Goddess will be entitled to use, reproduce, disclose, publish and distribute any material you submit for any purpose whatsoever, without restriction and without compensating you in any way. For this reason, we ask that you not send us any comments that you do not wish to assign to us, including any confidential information or any original creative materials such as stories, product ideas, computer code or original artwork.
Survey and Contests
Groovy Goddess may sometimes conduct surveys or contests. If you answer a survey or enter a contest, you may be asked for additional information. Before we ask you for personal information, we will explain how we may use the information. We will not share your personal information with anyone without your consent, but may use or report aggregate statistics of respondents.
Opt In
You may voluntarily sign up to be informed about certain offers. For this service we need only an e-mail address, which we use to send the information you requested.
Security
The Groovy Goddess site has physical, electronic and procedural security safeguards to protect and secure the information we collect to protect the loss, misuse and alteration of the information under our control. We follow generally accepted procedures to back up data stored on our servers and provide files secured by password protection as deterrents to invasions of privacy by casual users.
Our website uses Secure Sockets Layering (SSL) to encrypt your personal credit information, including your credit card number, before it travels over the Internet. SSL technology is the industry standard for secure online transactions. Because we use SSL, placing an order online at our website is just as safe as giving your credit card number over the phone.
Choice/Opt-Out
We provide users the opportunity to opt-out of receiving communications from Groovy Goddess and our partners via an unsubscribe mechanism in all e-mail communication.
Third Party Sites
This policy applies only to information collected or submitted on the Groovy Goddess Web site. The privacy policy does not apply to Web sites which may be accessed through links on our Web site.
Updates to this Policy
Groovy Goddess may change this privacy policy without notice from time to time. Please visit this page often for updates and changes. Updates and changes will be effective when posted. Regardless of later changes or updates, Groovy Goddess will not use your information in a new way without first providing you with an opportunity to opt-out.
Also, if you have not already done so, please review the Terms of Service that govern your use of the Groovy Goddess website.
Your Acceptance of this Policy
By using the Groovy Goddess Web site, you consent to the terms of this privacy policy. If you do not agree with this policy, please refrain from using this site. Your continued use of the Groovy Goddess website following a notice of change to the privacy policy will mean you accept the change.
In Summary
We are committed to protecting your privacy. We use the information we collect on the site to make shopping at Groovy Goddess possible and to enhance your overall shopping experience. We do not sell, trade or rent your personal information to others.
