The
knowledge that your personal
information is both private and
secure is important when
ordering products via the
Internet. Fauxsters, LLC
appreciates your patronage and
respects your personal privacy.
We will never share or release
your personal information, such
as: your name, street address,
telephone number, fax, e-mail
address or any other personal
information without your
consent. The personal
information that you provide to
us is used only to process your
order(s), reply to your
questions, and to improve your
future experiences with our
website.

Shopping
Safety on the Net
Shopping
with Fauxsters, LLC is safe - we
provide a secure Internet Credit
Card Ordering to our customers
for the superior convenience and
safety it provides. When
you send your credit card number
on our order form to our secure
sever, all the information -
from your name to your credit
card number - is encrypted.
This means that even if someone
were able to pick up the
transmission (which is very
unlikely) all they would get is
gibberish. Did you know
that ordering online can be one
of the safest ways to use your
credit card? Ordering on
the internet is a relatively new
way of shopping, and some people
worry about the safety of using
their credit card numbers or
submitting personal information
on the web. Much of this
worry is unfounded.
Placing orders with a credit
card over the Internet, via a
Secure Server which encrypts all
your personal and billing
information, is one of the
safest ways you can use your
credit card. Why, because
using the Internet to order by
credit card never exposes your
number through discarded credit
card receipts or carbons.
Your credit card never leaves
your possession (like it does in
a store or restaurant), so
you're in control of who has
access to your credit card
number. And, the
transmission can't be picked up
by baby monitors and scanners,
as it could if you placed an
order over a cordless or
cellular phone.

How
do you now your information is
secure?
When
you see either a solid key icon
or a locked padlock icon at the
lower portion of your browser
window, then your site is
secured through Secure Sockets
Layer. We use industry-standard
encryption technologies when
transferring and receiving your
information on our site. If you
do not see one of these icons,
please contact your Internet
service provider. When we
transfer and receive certain
types of sensitive information,
such as financial information,
we will redirect you to a secure
server and notify you through a
pop-up screen on our site.
We
have appropriate security
measures in place in our
facilities to protect against
the loss, misuse or alteration
of information that we have
collected from you at our site
so you can feel comfortable and
secure.
Please
note that e-mail is not
encrypted and is not considered
a secure means of transmitting
credit card numbers.

Private
Information
Your
personal information belongs to
you and not to Fauxsters, LLC or
anyone else. All your
personal information used for
ordering, including your
username and password, name,
contact numbers, credit card
number and address, are
encrypted through our network
using a Secure Socket Layer (SSL)
technology as it is transmitted
over the Internet, to protect
you. This information is
encrypted on your computer, sent
through the Internet as mixed
code and then decoded on our
server where it will reside on a
secure database and will be
accessed only in reference to
fulfilling your order(s), and
answering your queries. It
cannot be read in transit. In
all cases, credit card
information will be shared with
the credit card processor during
the purchasing process &
procedures.
We
will never sell, lend or trade
any personal information about
our customers with anyone!
Naturally, we hope that you will
tell others about us, but we
will never give information
about you to anyone.
We also ask for day and evening
phone numbers and e-mail address
so that we can contact you if
there is a problem or question
regarding your order.

Conflict
in terms
It
is our goal to make our privacy
practices easy to understand. We
have created this easy-to-read
Privacy Statement with that goal
in mind. Some browsers utilize
privacy enhancing technology to
translate our Privacy Statement
into a computer readable format.
The technology then requires
that the computer format be
translated back into human
readable format for you to read.
This translation back into human
readable format is often
referred to as a "Policy
Summary". It is possible
that through these translations,
the Policy Summary may
unintentionally end up being
inconsistent with the Privacy
Statement upon which it is
based. It might fail to address
an issue or it might address an
issue not raised in our Privacy
Statement. For this reason, you
should rely on our Privacy
Statement as the most accurate
and definitive description of
our practices.
