MetroMemories Privacy Policy   Introduction A good business relationship is based upon mutual trust. This includes your relationship with MetroMemories. To promote mutual trust, we take your privacy very seriously. Read the information below to learn more about our privacy policy.   What This Policy Covers This policy covers how MetroMemories (“we”) treats personal information that we collect regarding visitors and users (“you”) of the MetroMemories site. Personal Information is defined as identification information about you such as your name, address, email address, and phone number that is not otherwise publicly available.   The Information That We Collect About You On MetroMemories, you have almost total control over what information we may have about you. In most cases, we will not have personal information about you unless you voluntarily give it to us when establishing an account, placing an order, etc. This information includes, name, address, email address, shipping address, telephone number, credit card information, and any other information that we may consider necessary to serve you properly. (For example, we cannot deliver merchandise that you have ordered unless we have an address to deliver it to.) You may choose not to provide this information. However, a decision not to provide the information we request may mean that we are unable to process your order. You may provide us with information about other individuals (for example, you may request shipping to another individual and their address). We will safeguard this information as carefully as we would your own information. We also retain the same right to use this information as we would use your information (for example, we may need to contact them regarding shipping, we may contact them with information about offers and products we believe they may be interested in, etc.) The only personal information we collect from you without requesting it is your IP (Internet Protocol) address and the identity of the web site you visited prior to visiting MetroMemories. Your IP address is the number which the internet uses to identify you while you use the internet. This number does not provide us with other information about you (such as name, address, etc.). However, if it is important for us to contact you, your IP address may be used to identify your internet provider and you may be contacted through that channel. This will only be done if we have a significant need to contact you and we do not otherwise have accurate contact information. We identify the site you visited prior to our site to acquire knowledge of sites which may be providing links to MetroMemories.   How We Use Your Information Information collected about you is collected for the purpose of serving you. We need this information to ship products that you order, respond to questions you may pose to us, resolve problems and disputes, and to offer you products that we believe may interest you. We may use this information to communicate with you under a number of circumstances, such as in response to a request from you for information, notification of changes in our policies, distribution of our monthly newsletter, or contact regarding your account with us. As we serve you, it becomes necessary to share your personal information with other entities on a “need to know” basis. (For example, we need to share your credit card information with our financial institution in order to receive payment, a merchant needs to know your shipping information in order to ship merchandise to you. When your merchandise is shipped, the selected carrier must have access to your shipping information in order to make the delivery.)   Sale Of Your Information MetroMemories will not sell your personal information to any third party.   Access Within MetroMemories Access to your personal information is restricted within MetroMemories on a “need to know” basis. Employees, agents, and anyone in any way connected with MetroMemories who has access to your personal information are required to protect this information in a manner that is consistent with this Privacy Policy. Such individuals may not use your personal information for any purpose other than to carry out the services they are providing for MetroMemories. MetroMemories recognizes that credit card information is particularly sensitive. Credit card information is only accessible to MetroMemories personnel who need this access to process financial transactions and financial institutions involved with those transactions.   Use Of Your Information For Marketing Purposes When you provide personal information to us, you are automatically subscribed to our monthly email newsletter and may receive other offers or marketing materials from us by email. You may opt out of these email contacts if you desire.   Use Of Cookies To enhance the benefit of MetroMemories to you, we use “cookies.” Cookies are small text files we place on your computer.
