YOUR PRIVACY IS IMPORTANT
You may purchase any item directly from the me, the artist, by mailing
your check or money order; or, you may place an order by credit card using the
on-line shopping cart.
All credit card transactions are handled by
CCNow, my on-line retailer, and their name will appear on your billing
statement. CCNOW can answer all questions
pertaining to your order, as well as resolve any billing issues
through its 24-hour Customer Service: 1-877-CCNOW-77 (USA toll-free).
Whether you pay by check or credit card, your personal information will
never be shared with anyone for any reason. In addition, for on-line
credit card purchases, CCNow will act as your intermediary with me to
ensure that all parties are behaving honestly. The business practices
of CCNow are evaluated on a regular basis. You may
contact them if you have questions:
service@ccnow.com
You should also know that CCNow does *NOT* provide me with your credit card
information. This means that you have one less thing to worry about!
CCNow only provides me with your shipping address and a way of contacting you
if there is confusion about the order.
Of course, I always welcome questions, comments, and conversation. So if you
have any concerns, please
e-mail me.
SPECIFIC AND GORY DETAILS
Gary's Gallery of Fine Art is concerned about your privacy!
The following discloses the information gathering and dissemination practices
for this web-site: Gary's Gallery of Fine Art.
Your Credit Card Information
As indicated above, on-line credit card purchases are handled by my retailer,
CCNow. They do NOT reveal your credit
card information to me.
CCNow does provide your shipping address and a way of contacting
you if there is confusion about your order.
Your Personal Information
This site provides an order form by which customers may request information,
products, and/or services. When a customer contacts me, their contact
information is revealed (like their e-mail address). Similarly, when a
customer makes a purchase, they must provide their contact information
in order for me to send and/or confirm their purchase.
This information (e.g., their mailing address) is only used to complete
the sale. Under no circumstances will customer informtaion be revealed
to a third party, nor will it be distributed in any form.
Your information will never be used to create bulk-mailing
lists or mail-in surveys, nor for any purpose other than what is
required to perform my services. (Exceptions will be made, of course,
if so required by law enforcement officals.)
My on-line retailer, CCNow, also has similar a
privacy statement.
Unsolicited E-mail ("SPAM" MAIL)
Gary's Gallery of Fine Art web-site will *never* engage
in unsolicited, bulk e-mail! I hate receiving it, and I know you do, too!
Correct/Update/Opt-Out
Users may correct, modify or remove their personal contact information at any
time. Users who request removal will never receive any
future communications from me and any existing transactions will be cancelled.
Simply e-mail me with your request:
Security
This site has security measures in place to protect the loss, misuse
and alteration of the personal information under our control.
The shopping cart program invoked by this web-site for on-line purchases
is owned by our retailer, CCNow. This shopping cart uses encryption
to help ensure the safe transfer of information and is the most secure
method presently available for Web transactions. To the best of my
knowledge, no one's financial information has ever been compromised
while using this method. However, the web is not perfect (nor is the
Postal Service), so there may be some unknown risks.
Since the shopping cart program initiated by this web-site is the property
of CCNow, and Gary's Gallery of Fine Art has absolutely no control over it,
we can not be held responsible for any difficulties associated with it. However,
if we are ever notified of its failure, we will do our best swiftly
deactivate our connections to the shopping-cart.
Your IP Address
Your IP address may be used to help diagnose problems with our server,
to prevent duplicate voting in web-based surveys, or to administer this
web-site in order to improve it. It will never be used for any other purpose.
Cookies
At this time, this web-site does not directly use any cookies. However,
they may be used in the future to determine the frequency with which a
particular web-page or image is requested. Some of the banner advertisements
found on these pages do use cookies for their own purposes (mostly to count
download requests). We have no control over the practices of these
banner advertisements as most are inserted into these pages by my Web host,
HyperMart. Questions about HyperMart's
banners should be directed to them.
Likewise, our on-line retailer, CCNow, may choose to use cookies to keep track
of your shopping cart. They are a well-known and trusted name in on-line
retailing (see above), but we have no control over their use of cookies.
Please direct any concerns or questions to them.
Web-Links
This site contains links to other sites. Gary's Gallery of Fine Art
is not responsible for the privacy practices or the content of such web-sites,
nor for their use of cookies.
If you have any questions about this privacy statement, the
practices of this site, or your dealings with this web-site,
you can contact
