We are very concerned with your privacy while on the Schuler Shoes Web site.
Security
Our Web site takes every precaution to protect our users’ information. When users submit sensitive information via the site, your information is protected both online and offline. When our order form asks users to enter sensitive information (such as their credit card number), that information is encrypted and is protected by secure sockets layer (SSL) encryption software. While on a secure page, such as our order form, the lock icon on the bottom of Web browsers such as Mozilla Firefox and Microsoft Internet Explorer becomes locked, as opposed to unlocked when you are on normal pages without sensitive information.
To verify our secure connection, you can move your cursor over the image below.
Cookies
A cookie is a piece of data stored on the user’s hard drive containing information about the user. Usage of a cookie is in no way linked to any personally identifiable information while on our site. Once the user closes their browser, the cookie simply terminates. For instance, by setting a cookie on our site, the user would not have to log in with their user name and password more than once, thereby saving time while on our site. If a user rejects the cookie, they may still use our site. The only drawback to this is that the user will be unable to take advantage of some of the aspects of our site.
Links
This web site contains links to other sites. Please be aware that we at Schuler Shoes are not responsible for the privacy practices of such other sites. We encourage our users to be aware when they leave our site and to read the privacy statements of each and every Web site that collects personally identifiable information. This privacy statement applies solely to information collected by this Web site.
Mailing List
If a user wishes to subscribe to our mailing list, we ask for contact information such as a name and e-mail address. This information is not shared with any other party.
Log Files
We use IP addresses to analyze trends, administer the site, track user’s movement and gather broad demographic information for aggregate use. IP addresses are not linked to personally identifiable information.
Notification of Changes
If we decide to change our privacy policy, we will post those changes on our home page so our users are always aware of what information we collect, how we use it and under what circumstances, if any, we disclose it. If at any point we decide to use personally identifiable information in a manner different from that stated at the time it was collected, we will notify users by way of e-mail. Users will have a choice as to whether or not we use their information in this different manner. We will use information in accordance with the privacy policy under which the information was collected.
