We respect your privacy! eTote Shop respects the privacy needs and concerns of our customers. It is our goal to provide you with an enjoyable and satisfying shopping experience, and to meet and exceed your expectations. To accomplish this goal we use the information our customers provide in the following ways.

When you visit our website, we automatically recognize your internet service provider, the web page from which you came, and a record of your activity on our site, but you cannot be identified as an individual. The customer information that eTote Shop collects through its web site is used to process orders and to improve your shopping experience.

The information you volunteer enables us to process your purchases, confirm your orders, customize the content and layout of our pages, notify you about updates to our site, and provide you with additional information about our products.

The information you supply to us is added to our customer database. We may also send you catalogs or emails to inform you of new products, services and special offers, special promotions or upcoming events.

We may also share names, addresses or e-mail addresses of our registered website guests with other contractors that eTote Shop may hire to assist us in making improvements to the site. eTote Shop requires that such companies keep all information confidential and use it solely for making improvements to the site.

We do occasionally share name and address information with other catalog companies that offer similar products. We do not share any personal and financial information!

eTote Shop has taken measures to ensure that shopping at our online store is a safe and enjoyable experience for our valued customers. We use a highly Secure Sockets Layering (RapidSSL) to encrypt your personal credit information, including your credit card number, before it travels over the internet. SSL technology is the industry standard for secure online transactions. Because we use SSL, placing an order online is just as safe as giving your credit card number over the telephone.

Time to time we may present offers to you on behalf of third party partners. If you decide to take advantage of an offer, we may share your name, address and credit card information as necessary for you to participate in the offer but only with your specific consent.

Cookies are a small piece of information that web sites use to remember information about users. We use two types of cookies to recognize our members and remember shopping list items. eTote Shop uses transient cookies in order to provide continuity from page to page. Within a single visit, these cookies store information such as your shopping list to simplify checkout. They do not contain any personally identifying information.

eTote Shop also uses persistent cookies to identify members after their first visit. These cookies remain on the hard drive of a PC and allow a user to enter our site without having to log in on every visit. To access any secure areas such as your account information or checkout, you must still enter your password.
