Your privacy is very important to us. We want to make your experience on the internet as enjoyable and rewarding as possible, and we want you to use the internet’s vast array of information, tools, and opportunities with complete confidence.
We have created this Privacy Policy to demonstrate our firm commitment to privacy and security. This Privacy Policy describes how ThePerchStore.net collects information from all end users of ThePerchStore.net internet services (the "Services") — those who access some of our Services but do not make a purchase ("Visitors") as well as those who make a purchase ("Customers") — what we do with the information we collect, and the choices Visitors and Customers have concerning the collection and use of such information.
Introduction
ThePerchStore.net collects information in different ways from Visitors and customers who access the various parts of our Services. We use this information primarily to provide a customized experience as you use our Services and, generally, do not share this information with third parties. However, we may disclose personal information collected if we have received your permission beforehand or in very special circumstances, such as when we believe that such disclosure is required by law or other special cases described below.
ThePerchStore.net collects the following information for purposes of placing an order: name, address, email address, and credit card information. This information allows us to know who and where to ship products to, allows us to email an order confirmation and tracking numbers, and allows us to process the order.
Data Security
The information you provide—including credit card information—is secured using Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) encryption technology. We use this SSL technology to prevent such information from being intercepted and read as it is transmitted over the Internet. The encrypted data goes to a secure site where your information is stored on restricted-access computers located at restricted-access sites. While we make every effort to ensure the integrity and security of our network and systems, we cannot guarantee that our security measures will prevent third-party "hackers" from illegally obtaining this information. Our store is a Yahoo Store, hosted by Yahoo, one of the world's largest providers of secure e-commerce solutions. Please follow the link near the top of this page for more information on Yahoo's Privacy Policies.
Service Providers
We use other third parties to provide a newsletter to our customers. When you sign up for our "News from the Nest" newsletter, we will share your name and email as necessary for the third party to provide that service. These third parties are prohibited from using your personally identifiable information for any other purpose, other than allowing us to use their services to send the newsletters to your email address.
"Cookies" and how ThePerchStore.net Uses Them
A "cookie" is a small data file that can be placed on your hard drive when you visit certain Web sites. “Cookies” must be enabled on your computer for you to be able to use our shopping cart. Yahoo may use cookies to collect, store, and sometimes track information for statistical purposes to improve the products and services we provide and to manage our telecommunications networks. If you are a Customer, we may use a cookie to save your settings and to provide customizable and personalized services. These cookies do not enable third parties to access any of your customer information.
Yahoo captures information on how visitors navigate throughout the site, as well as usage and volume statistics. This information allows us to determine ways that we can improve the site usability, ending in an improved experience for our visitors.
Choice/Opt-out
We use your email address to communicate with you about your orders and we also occasionally send notices of special discounts and other pet bird-related information to our customers. If you no longer wish to receive our newsletter and promotional communications, you may opt-out of receiving them by following the instructions included in each newsletter or communication or by emailing us using the Contact Us form on our home page, or you may contact us by phone or at the mailing address below to opt-out.
Special Cases
It is the policy of ThePerchStore.net not to use or share the personal information about Visitors or Customers in ways unrelated to the ones described above without also providing you an opportunity to prohibit such unrelated uses. However, we may disclose personal information about Visitors or Customers, if we believe that it is reasonable to do so, including: to satisfy laws, such as the Electronic Communications Privacy Act, regulations, or governmental or legal requests for such information; to disclose information that is necessary to operate the Services properly.
We reserve the right to disclose your personally identifiable information as required by law and when we believe that disclosure is necessary to protect our rights and/or comply with a judicial proceeding, court order, or legal process served on our Web site.
ThePerchStore.net’s Commitment to Children's Privacy
Protecting children’s privacy is especially important to us. It is our policy to comply with the Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act of 1998 and all other applicable laws.
