This website (Miss Lyn) knows that you care how information about you is used and shared,
and we appreciate your trust that we will do so carefully and sensibly. This notice
describes our privacy policy. By visiting the Miss Lyn website, you are accepting the practices
described in this Privacy Notice.
Personal Customer Information Gathered by Miss Lyn
The information we learn from customers helps us personalize and continually improve
your shopping experience at Miss Lyn. Here are the types of information we
gather.
Information You Give Us: We receive and store any information
you enter on our Web site or give us in any other way. You can choose not to provide
certain information, but then you might not be able to take advantage of many of
our features. We use the information that you provide for such purposes as responding
to your requests, customizing future shopping for you, improving our store, and
communicating with you.
Automatic Information: We receive and store certain
types of information whenever you interact with us. For example, like many Web sites,
we use "cookies", and we obtain certain types of information when your
Web browser accesses this website. A number of companies offer utilities designed
to help you visit Web sites anonymously. Although we will not be able to provide
you with a personalized experience at Miss Lyn if we cannot recognize you,
we want you to be aware that these tools exist.
E-mail Communications: To help us make e-mails more
useful and interesting, we may receive a confirmation when you open e-mail from
Miss Lyn if your computer supports such capabilities. We also compare our customer
list to lists received from other companies, in an effort to avoid sending unnecessary
messages to our customers.
Information from Other Sources: For reasons such as
improving personalization of our service (for example, providing better product
recommendations or special offers that we think will interest you), we might receive
information about you from other sources and add it to our account information.
We also sometimes receive updated delivery and address information from our shippers
or other sources so that we can correct our records and deliver your next purchase
or communication more easily.
Cookies
Cookies are alphanumeric identifiers that we transfer to your computer's hard
drive through your Web browser to enable our systems to recognize your browser.
The "help" portion of the toolbar on most browsers will tell you how to
prevent your browser from accepting new cookies, how to have the browser notify
you when you receive a new cookie, or how to disable cookies altogether. However,
cookies allow you to take full advantage of some of this websites's best features,
and we recommend that you leave them turned on.
Sharing of information received by Miss Lyn
Information about our customers is an important part of our business, and we are
not in the business of selling it to others. We share customer information only
with the subsidiaries of Miss Lyn as described below.
Agents: We employ other companies and individuals to
perform functions on our behalf. Examples include fulfilling orders, delivering
packages, sending postal mail and e-mail, removing repetitive information from customer
lists, analyzing data, providing marketing assistance, processing credit card payments,
and providing customer service. They have access to personal information needed
to perform their functions, but may not use it for other purposes.
Promotional Offers: We might, at some stage in the future,
send offers to selected groups of Miss Lyn customers on behalf of other businesses.
When we do this, we do not give that business your name and address.
Business Transfers: As we continue to develop our business,
we might sell or buy stores or assets. In such transactions, customer information
generally is one of the transferred business assets. Also, in the unlikely event
that Miss Lyn, or substantially all of its assets are acquired, customer information
will of course be one of the transferred assets.
Protection of Miss Lyn and Others: We release account
and other personal information when we believe release is appropriate to comply
with law; enforce or apply our Conditions of Use and other agreements; or protect
the rights, property, or safety of Miss Lyn, our users, or others. This includes
exchanging information with other companies and organizations for fraud protection
and credit risk reduction.
With Your Consent: Other than as set out above, you
will receive notice when information about you might go to third parties, and you
will have an opportunity to choose not to share the information.
Security of Your Information
We work to protect the security of your information during transmission by using
Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) software, which encrypts information you input.
It is important for you to protect against unauthorized access to your computer.
As discussed above, you can always choose not to provide information, even though
it might be needed to make a purchase or to take advantage of this websites features.
The "help" portion of the toolbar on most browsers will tell you how to
prevent your browser from accepting new cookies, how to have the browser notify
you when you receive a new cookie, or how to disable cookies altogether
