Categories of Personally Identifiable Information We Collect
We collect personally identifiable information, as defined above, from you when you place an order with us or through communications with you.
How We Use Your Information:
We use your personal information that we collect to conduct our business and to provide you with the best possible products and services. To best serve you, we may share your personally identifiable information with service providers that help us market our product. Service providers, third parties who perform services on our behalf, are contractually restricted from using your information in any manner other than in helping us to provide you with the products and services available from HouserShoes.com. We may also, in certain instances, disclose your personally identifiable information when we have reason to believe that it is necessary to identify, contact, or bring legal action to protect your rights or the rights of HouserShoes.com or others. We may also disclose your personally identifiable information when we believe it is required by law.
Cookies
HouserShoes.com uses "cookie" and "web beacon" technology. We use cookies and web beacons to distinguish you from other visitors, track your IP address and usage of our site, and to identify the name of the Web site from which you linked to HouserShoes.com. This information is used for fulfilling contracts with our business partners, and to help us serve you better by improving our website design, as well as our products, services, and promotions. We do not otherwise track any information about your use of other websites. Non-personally identifiable information obtained through cookies and web beacons may be shared with or obtained by service providers on our behalf.
A cookie is a small data file that is placed on the hard drive of your computer when you visit a website. A "session cookie" expires immediately when you end your session (i.e., close your browser). A "persistent cookie" stores information on the hard drive so when you end your session and return to the same website at a later date, the cookie information is still available. A web beacon is a small string of code that represents a clear graphic image and is used in conjunction with a cookie.
When you visit our website, we may use both a session and a persistent cookie. This cookie may contain information (such as a unique user ID) that is used to track your usage of our website. A web beacon allows us to capture certain additional types of information about a visitor's actions on a web site, such as a visitor's cookie number, the time, date duration and number of page views, a description of the page where the Web beacon is placed, and details about any items that were purchased.
If you order from us, we may also use cookies to monitor and maintain information about your use of our website. If you have not ordered from us, we may monitor and maintain information about your use of our website in a manner that does not identify you. You can disable cookies at any time by using your browser options; however, if you turn off cookies, we will not be able to track your order or enable you to make a purchase from our website.
