With that in mind, please read the following terms carefully as your access and use of this site (www.hamptonknittingyarn.com) constitutes agreement to all terms, conditions and notices contained or referenced herein.
User Information
We request information from the user on our order form. A user must provide
contact information (such as name, email, and shipping address) and billing
information (such as 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, the information is used to contact the user.
To ensure validity of the order and reduce fraud the users IP address
is also captured at time of checkout, it is strictly used for order verification
purposes.
Correcting/Updating/Personal Information
If a users personally identifiable information, (such as address,) changes,
use the "your account" link at the top of any page to alter your information.
Registration
To place an order on this Web site, a user must first complete the registration
form. During registration a user gives contact information (such as
name and email address). We use this information to contact the user
about services on our site for which he has expressed interest.
We send all new members a welcoming email to verify password and username.
Established members will occasionally receive information on products,
services, special deals. Out of respect for the privacy of our users
we present the option to not receive these types of communications. Please
contact Customer
Support.
Third Parties
Customer lists are not sold or distributed to third parties.
Security
Hampton Knitting Yarn takes every precaution to protect our users
information. When users submit sensitive information via the Web site,
their information is protected both online and off-line.
When our registration/order form asks users to enter sensitive information,
(such as your credit card number,) that information is encrypted and
is protected with the best and most often used encryption software in
the industry - SSL (Secure Socket Layer). While on a secure page, such
as during critical steps on our order form, you should see a lock icon
somewhere on the web browser window frame, which becomes
locked, as opposed to un-locked, or open, when users are just surfing.
Another way to tell you are on a secure web page is if the web address
starts with "https://". Note the "s" after "http", as opposed to non-secure
pages that just start with "http://".
In addition to using 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. Furthermore, ALL employees are kept up-to-date
on our security and privacy practices. Finally, the servers that store
personally identifiable information are in a secure environment,
in a locked facility.
To help ensure others will not have access to your credit card information while on our Web site, we urge you to sign off your account and close your browser window when you have finished your visit, especially if you are sharing a computer with someone else or are using a computer in a public place.
