INFORMATION
COLLECTION AND USE (PRIVACY POLICY)
A Baker
& Sons is the sole owner of the information collected on this
site. We will not sell, share, or rent this information to others
in ways different from what is disclosed in this statement. A
Baker & Sons collects information from our users at several
different points on our website.
Order
We request information from the user on our order form. Here a
user must provide contact information (like name and shipping
address) and financial information (like credit card number, expiration
date). This information is used for billing purposes and to fill
customer’s orders. If we have trouble processing an order,
this contact information is used to get in touch with the user.
Sharing
We will never share your information with any external business,
company or organisation unless such sharing is mandated in law
and requested as such.
Links
This web site contains links to several other sites. Please be
aware that A Baker & Sons Limited are not responsible for
the privacy practices of such other sites. We encourage our users
to be aware when they leave our site and to read the privacy statements
of each and every web site that collects personally identifiable
information. This privacy statement applies solely to information
collected by this Web site.
Security
This website takes 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 our registration/order
form asks users to enter sensitive information (such as credit
card number), that information is encrypted and is protected with
the best encryption software in the industry - SSL. 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 un-locked, 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 to handling and storage
within 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. Our employees must use password-protected screen-savers
when they leave their desk. When they return, they must re-enter
their password to re-gain access to your information. Furthermore,
ALL employees are kept up-to-date on our security and privacy
practices. Every quarter, as well as any time new policies are
added, our employees are notified and/or reminded about the importance
we place on privacy, and what they can do to ensure our customers'
information is protected. Finally, the servers that we store personally
identifiable information on are kept in a secure environment.
Surveys
& Contests
From time-to-time our site requests information from users via
surveys or contests. Participation in these surveys or contests
is completely voluntary and the user therefore has a choice whether
or not to disclose this information. Information requested may
include contact information (such as name and shipping address),
and demographic information (such as post code, age level). Contact
information will be used to notify the winners and award prizes.
Survey information will be used for purposes of monitoring or
improving the use and satisfaction of this site.
Correction/Updating Personal Information:
If a user’s personally identifiable information changes (such
as your post code), or if a user no longer desires our service,
we will endeavor to provide a way to correct, update or remove
that user’s personal data provided to us.
Notification
of Changes
If we decide to change our privacy policy, we will post those
changes on our privacy page so our users are always aware of what
information we collect and how we use it. If at any point we decide
to use personally identifiable information in a manner different
from that stated at the time it was collected, we will notify
users by way of an email. Users will have a choice as to whether
or not we use their information in this different manner. We will
use information in accordance with the privacy policy under which
the information was collected.
