| At IPETSONLINE.com, we are concerned with protecting your privacy. We use the
information we collect about you to provide a personalized shopping experience.
We may also use it to tell you about special offers that we think you'd
appreciate if you are subscribed to our newsletters. You'll never have to worry
about receiving a barrage of unexpected email from us if you have not
subscribed with us. We will not sell, rent or trade your information.
We occasionally have third party agents, subsidiaries, affiliates and joint
ventures that perform functions on our behalf. They have access to personal
information needed to perform their functions, and are contractually obligated
to maintain the confidentiality and security of the data. They are restricted
from using this data for other purposes, and in any way other than to provide
the requested services to IPETSONLINE.com, and may not alter or resell the
data. You may not elect to opt-out of personally identifiable site tracking
activity by following the Opt-out link below. Keep in mind that
IPETSONLINE.com may continue to collect anonymous aggregate site behavior from our customers.
We may occasionally have third party agents, subsidiaries, affiliates or
joint ventures offer promotions on IPETSONLINE.com. You have the option to
specifically opt-in to participate in the promotion and share your personal
data with these parties and IPETSONLINE.com. These promotions may be in the
form of a survey, contest or a separate area offering you the opportunity to
enter your data for the specific purpose of participating in that program or
promotion. Data collected by these third-parties will be covered under the
third-party's Privacy Policy agreement.
There is a possibility that IPETSONLINE.com, its subsidiaries, its joint
ventures, its affiliates, or any combination of such, could merge with,
acquire, or be acquired by another business entity. If such an action occurs,
IPETSONLINE.com would like to let you know that some or all of the personal
information collected about you would be shared with this entity in order to
continue to provide reliable service. Notice of such an event will be posted on
this page, and we will require that all parties follow the practices disclosed
in this Privacy Policy unless otherwise noted.
When registering with IPETSONLINE.com, we will ask for some contact
information, such as your name and email address. We will use the customer
contact information from the registration form to send you information about
our company and some of our partners.
Sometimes you will provide us with data that doesn't reveal your personal
identity - what type of pet you're interested in, for example. We use this sort
of information for editorial and personalization purposes, and occasionally for
other internal purposes (maybe we'll show cat owners a certain ad, for example)
but we do not connect it to any name, address or other personal identifying
information. This way we can give you customized information without
compromising your privacy.
We reserve the right to use aggregated, anonymous data about our users as a
group. For instance, we might report to potential advertisers that a certain
percentage of our users are interested in parrot behavior,
based on online surveys or other requests.
We may use a third party agent to handle our email marketing and you may
refer to their privacy policy
If we know a visitor is under the age of eighteen, we will collect a
parent's permission offline (by postal mail, fax or phone) before we collect or
share personal information with anyone else.
Please note that nowhere on the website do we knowingly collect contact
information or financial information from children under the age of 18.
