Cardworks Privacy and Security Policy
Cardworks is committed to protecting our client's privacy on this Web site.
All of our staff are required to safeguard the privacy of information about
our customers. This same expectation is made of our partners and suppliers.
Cardworks will use information gathered for the purpose for which it was
submitted by the user.
Cardworks does not sell or rent names, addresses, address book entries,
reminder information or emails to third parties. We use the information that
you supply to us for internal purposes: to process your order, maintain or
update your Cardworks order information, send you updates about special offers,
new services, special promotions, and noteworthy news and events, to create
personalized content, services and advertising on the Cardworks Web site.
Cardworks retains the right to share membership information with Cardworks'
partners or affiliates to enable Cardworks to provide you with special
benefits, offers, or promotions. You will not receive this information if
you choose not to receive information on products / services and useful data.
Cardworks also monitors general Web site activity so that we may better
understand the users that are visiting our site. For example, we may produce
reports on the most popular greeting cards by collecting general search
term data based on individual searches. However, this aggregate data is
anonymous and does not contain any personally identifiable information.
There may be instances where Cardworks generates very general statistics
about the information provided by the users: computer platform, browsers,
etc. This information is used solely for the purpose of better identifying
and thereby better servicing the needs of our clients.
Our site uses an order form for customers to request information, products,
and services. We collect visitor's contact information (like their email
address) and financial information (like their account or credit card numbers).
Contact information from the order form is used to send orders, information
about our company, and Cardworks promotional material. The customer's contact
information is also used to get in touch with the visitor when necessary.
Users may opt-out of receiving future mailings; see the choice/opt-out section
below. Financial information that is collected is used to bill the user for
products and services.
Our online surveys ask visitors for contact information (like their email
address), and demographic information (like their zip code, age range, or
income level). We use contact data from our surveys to send the user information
about our company and Cardworks promotional material. The customer's contact
information is also used to contact the visitor when necessary. Users may opt-
out of receiving future mailings; see the choice/opt-out section below. Financial
information that is collected from our users is used to bill the user for
products and services. Demographic and profile data is also collected at our
site. We use this data to tailor our visitor's experience at our site, showing
them content that we think they might be interested in, and displaying the
content according to their preferences. This information is shared with
advertisers on an aggregate basis.
We use cookies to establish a login session,
set user tailored options and optionally to save your password so you don't have
to re-enter it each time you visit our site. Cookies are simply data that a Web site
transfers to your computer's hard disk to store information required by the site.
The use of cookies is widespread, and many major Web sites use them to provide
custom features for their customers. This site uses cookies to identify your
browser (not you personally) throughout your login session. By default, most
browsers are configured to accept cookies. Browsers can also refuse all cookies,
but this site will not work without it.
Cardworks has taken measures to ensure your complete privacy and security.
Cardworks employs Secure Socket Layer (SSL) encryption technology. Our secure
web server provides 128-bit encryption for all your credit card information.
Though Cardworks takes the utmost care to protect your information, we cannot
ensure or warrant the security of any information you transmit to us.
The SSL encryption technology works with Netscape Navigator and Communicator
(versions 2.0 and above), Microsoft Internet Explorer (versions 3.0 and above),
and America Online (versions 3.0 and above). If you have not already done so, we
recommend that you upgrade to one of the above browsers because they support the
SSL technology thus providing you with added security. The more recent versions
of the various browsers will provide you with even better safety and will ensure
that you can utilize all the services available on the Cardworks web site.
Your personal account information is protected as well. When you sign up for
Cardworks' My Cardworks Services, you will be prompted to enter an access password.
Your Calendar, Address Book and ALL other account information can be viewed if
this password is provided. Your Checkout information is also protected by your
password. Cardworks offers an auto login feature
The password you choose should be familiar to you and one that you will easily
remember. If you forget your password, simply click the password link below the
password field. You will be prompted to enter personal information as a verification
measure. Provided this information is correct, you will be shown your password
reminder. If this still does not jog your memory, send an e-mail to
password@cardworksonline.com, and your
password will be e-mailed to you.
By providing information to Cardworks, you are agreeing to allow us to utilize
this information to complete all transactions you request through this Web site
and to disclose that information and details of all such transactions to Cardworks,
affiliates, and any necessary payment processors.
From time to time, Cardworks will notify users of our site by email of new services.
If, in the future, you wish to refuse such notifications, email
info@cardworksonline.com that you wish
to be removed from our database of email addresses.
