The Quilt Studio Website Privacy Policy:
At TheQuiltStudio.com, your privacy is our priority. We are committed to protecting your privacy at all times, in all situations. The information we collect about you when you become a member is used to process your orders and to provide a more personalized experience on our site. Our site uses a 128 bit encrypted SSL to increase the security of our customer’s information. While The Quilt Studio cannot guarantee complete security of stored information, we have installed and applied encrypted pages and an SSL certificate to help prevent information from being stolen.
How Do We Use the Information We Collect?
We use your personal information to deliver products that you have ordered, to contact you or the product recipient(s) in the event of any order or delivery difficulties, for verification purposes, to respond to your inquiries and to deliver services and information about our products, promotions, services or Web sites.
When you become a member at thequiltstudio.com, we ask you to fill out a form that requests your name, address and e-mail address as well as some demographic information such as gender and date of birth. TheQuiltStudio.com will NOT share data with trusted partners to help us perform statistical analysis.
Your name and address information is used solely to process orders unless your prior consent is given. Without your consent, this information will NEVER be sold, given, rented or traded to others for purposes other than order fulfillment. Your demographic information (gender, date of birth, etc.) will be used for several security purposes, to ensure you are who you say you are and in fact you are paying with your credit cards and not someone using your stolen credit cards.
Refer-A-Friend
If you choose to use our referral service to tell a friend about our site, we will ask you for your friend's name and email address.
