Poodles Galore respects the
privacy of our customers. Any and all information collected through our
system is treated with the utmost care.Poodles Galore's Privacy Guarantee
Poodles Galore asks customers to supply various personal data when placing
an order, such as name and address, credit-card information, and E-mail
address. We use this data only for the purpose of filling an order, or
communicating with the customer or supplier about the status of an order.
We will release personally identifiable information to third parties and
organizations when we believe it is appropriate for us to do so in order to
comply with the law or to protect against fraud. We will also release such
information to cooperate with law enforcement or other governmental
investigations (without necessarily requiring the requesting law enforcement
or government agency to formally serve us with a subpoena), comply with all
valid court orders or subpoenas, protect the legal rights of us and our
users, or when we believe it is needed for fraud protection and/or credit
risk reduction.
Except for the circumstances set forth in the previous paragraph, we will
not knowingly distribute customer information to be used in mailing lists,
surveys, or any other purpose other than what is required to perform our
services.
What information do we collect? How do we use it?
When ordering online, Poodles Galore must collect the purchaser's name,
email address, mailing address, phone number, credit card number, and
expiration date. This allows us to process and fulfill orders and provide
notification of the order status.
How does Poodles Galore protect customer information?
Customers who buy through the Poodles Galore system are shopping on a secure
server, which encrypts all of the customer's personal information including
name, address and credit card number. Encryption ensures that no one can
access or use personal information in an unauthorized manner.
Our commerce system was developed in-house with security as its number one
priority. This single entry point allows Poodles Galore to maintain the
tightest access control - eliminating (rather than closing) the backdoor.
