Personal Information about Customers that Swiss House Shop Ltd. gathers
Information you give us: We reserve the right to store any information, other than your credit card number and AVS code, that you enter on our web site or provide us over the phone or in any other way. This includes address information and shopping choices. We use the information that you provide for such purposes as shipping your packages, responding to your requests, improving our selection, and communicating with you. We may also use that information for future marketing purposes.
Automatic Information: We receive and store certain data elements whenever you log on to our web site. Like many web sites, we use cookies and obtain browser information like referring pages and browser brand and version. We also timestamp the date and time of your visit.
Email Communications: We do not utilize email open confirmation, a technique many sites use to determine when you open email from them. We consider this practice invasive and wasteful of bandwidth. Our newsletter is optional, and every newsletter we send has a link to automatically unsubscribe. If you do not want to receive email from us, simply let us know by emailing info[at]swisshouse-shop.com
You have the right to learn what personal data we have stored about you, and if necessary to correct any incorrect details. In this event, please contact info[at]swisshouse-shop.com

How Swiss House Shop Ltd. Shares Information About Customers
Swiss House Shop Ltd. provides your shipping information to our logistics and delivery associate, and to suppliers that function as third-party drop shippers on our behalf. The information we supply to drop shippers only relates to the specific order being fulfilled by them. It is generally sent by secure email, secure http or secure ftp. We securely transmit your credit card data to the appropriate credit card company during order processing. As web technology and the online operating environment are constantly evolving, we cannot accurately predict all future applications of the data we store about your order history. If you strongly oppose any use of your contact information other than what is needed to fulfill orders, please let us know by emailing us at info[at]swisshouse-shop.com
In the event Swiss House Shop Ltd. buys or sells a business unit, customer information may be one of the transferred business assets but remains subject to the policies made in this Privacy Statement.
With respect to law enforcement, we may be obliged to release personal information if we believe such release is appropriate to comply with the law, or protect the rights, property, or safety of Swiss House Shop Ltd., our users, or others. This includes exchanging information with organizations that fight fraud and identity theft.
Security of Sensitive Information
We work to protect the security of your information during transmission by using Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) software, which encrypts information you input. We reveal only a fragment of your credit card number when confirming an order. Information stored in our customer database is protected using stateof-the-art security methods.
Our business changes constantly and our Privacy Statement may change periodically. Please check our web site frequently to see if any changes take place. However, we will never materially change our policies and practices to make them less protective of customer information collected in the past without the consent of affected customers.
