Protection of Visitor Information

We understand the importance of privacy to our customers and visitors to our Web site. For many years, our policy has been to treat what we learn about our customers as confidential. For example, we will not give or sell confidential or personal information about our customer to any third party not affiliated with their transaction, except as required by law or as necessary to provide purchasing services to the customer.

We collect and store information about every transaction we handle so that we can efficiently provide the products demanded by our customers. We use information about our customers and their buying and browsing activity to provide or enhance the products and services we make available to our customers, to enhance our ability to communicate with our customers about additional products they may find of value, to satisfy our legitimate business interests (including performing trend analysis and market studies), to set prices, accomplish the billing function, and to comply with government regulations. Although government regulations vary in the many states, they frequently include the reporting of information to regulatory agencies.

As we collect and use information about our customers, we may contract with vendors to assist us in processing that information. These vendors are required to maintain the confidentiality of the information and are restricted from using the information for any purpose other than helping to provide Bradburn Knives services to our customers.

Some of the information collected by Bradburn Knives is personal data or data which relates to an identifiable person. Examples of personal data are names, addresses, e-mail addresses, credit card numbers and telephone numbers. We never sell information to third parties that could be used to specifically identify an individual customer or group of customers. Anonymized data, with all names, addresses and other personally identifiable information removed, is sometimes shared with third parties. Finally, we do provide personal data to government agencies as required by law or regulation.

In addition to the uses of the information described in the paragraphs above, we collect telephone numbers and e-mail addresses in the event that we have to contact the customer, or the shipment recipient, to resolve a question or provide shipment status information.
