PRIVACY POLICY STATEMENT 

This is the web site of Betties.

Our postal address is:

681 Saint John Street

Pleasanton, California 94566

Our email address is: info@bettiesfashions.com

For each visitor to our Web page, our Web server automatically recognizes the consumer's domain name and e-mail address (where possible).

We collect the domain name and e-mail address (where possible) of visitors to our Web page, and we aggregate information on what pages consumers access or visit and information volunteered by the consumer, such as survey information and/or site registrations.

Like all other Web servers, Betties’ Web server automatically creates log files for each visitor who accesses our site.  These "access logs" allow us to make our site more useful to our visitors. The access logs do NOT record a visitor's name, address, phone number, credit card numbers, or any other personally-identifying information. Rather, they contain some or all of the following information:

• The Internet Protocol Address (IP Address) of the machine that accessed our Web site.

• The date of the visit.

• The time of the visit.

• The path taken through our Web site.

• The browser being used.

• A list of files downloaded or viewed.

• Any errors encountered.

The information we collect is used to improve the content of our Web page and used to notify consumers about updates to our Web site.

Cookies

Betties also uses 'cookies' to collect information. A cookie is a string of characters that can be written to a file on the user's hard drive when the user visits a Web site. Only the Web site that set the cookie can read it, and it can only be used as a record keeping device to store information that the site already has. It cannot, for example, be used to read other information from the user's hard drive.

Betties uses cookies to track users' activity through the site in order to improve the site's architecture, to offer the user interactive features that would not be possible without them, and to recall specific information to save the user time during subsequent visits to the site. If you wish to prevent cookies from being set to your hard drive you may disable them in your browser's preferences, although you may no longer be able to access certain interactive features.

Links

For your convenience, we may offer links to other Web sites. Please note this Privacy Policy applies only to our Web site at bettiesfashions.com. Any other website may be subject to another privacy policy. We encourage you to review the privacy policy posted at each Web site you visit before you provide any personal information through that Web site.

Use of Information

The use of personally-identifying information is limited to the following: responding to user e- mails; fulfillment of Betties Online Shop orders; editorial purposes such as contacting users for an online survey; sending communications, including marketing and promotional communications, from Betties to users and members, and other purposes specified at the time the information is gathered.

At such time as Betties Fashions makes catalogs available to users, we may share name and address information from catalog requesters with other marketing companies whose offers we feel you might be interested in.  Otherwise, we do not sell, trade or otherwise disclose personally identifiable information to anyone other than our service providers and, in very rare cases, to law enforcement agencies by court order.

If you do not want your personal information to be shared with other companies, e-mail us at: info@bettiesfashions.com stating you do not want your name used for other purposes.

If you do not want your personally-identifying information to be collected or used for any of these purposes, you can simply “opt out” according to the process described below.

Betties uses non-identifying aggregate information to analyze use of and better design the Betties Web site and to share with third parties in aggregate form only as appropriate. For example, we may tell a third party that a certain number of users accessed a particular area or product on our Web site. However, we will not disclose any information that could be used to identify those users.

Mail, E-mail, Faxes, and Telephone

If you supply us with your postal address on-line you may receive periodic postal mailings from us or related third parties with information on new products and services or upcoming events. If you give us your e-mail address, you are giving us permission to reply to or send information to that e-mail address.

If you provide us with a fax number, you are consenting to receive faxes from us at that number.

If you supply us with your telephone number on-line you may receive telephone contact from us with information regarding orders you have placed.

If you'd prefer not to receive such communications, please state your preferences in an email to us at the above address. Please remember to provide us your name, address, and account number and we will revise your account preferences accordingly.

Security

Betties has in place what we believe to be appropriate physical, electronic, and managerial procedures to safeguard and secure the information we collect online. Credit card information provided to the Betties Online Shop is protected against unauthorized use by Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) security features, which scramble your personal information.

Corrections to Personal Data; Opting Out

Please write to info@betties.com to a) correct or update any personal information in the Betties database that you state is erroneous, b) opt-out of future communications from Betties, c) opt-out of third party communications, or d) request Betties to make reasonable efforts to remove your personal information from the Betties database. The user understands that it may be impossible to delete personal information entirely because of backups and records of deletions.

Acceptance of Privacy Policy Terms

Betties reserves the right to change this policy. Any changes to this policy will be posted to this page as soon as reasonably possible, so please check this page periodically. Use of the Betties Web site constitutes consent to any policy then in effect.  Please make sure that you read Betties Privacy Policy section of this web site to understand additional terms and conditions that apply to the use of our Web site.
