What Personal Information About Customers
Does Veronique Knitwear Gather?
Information You Give Us:
We receive and store any information you enter on our
Web site or give us in any other way. You can choose not to provide certain
information, but then you might not be able to take advantage of many of our
features. We use the information that you provide for such purposes as
responding to your requests, customizing future shopping for you, improving our
stores, and communicating with you.
Automatic Information: We receive and store certain types of information
whenever you interact with us. For example, like many Web sites, we use
"cookies," and we obtain certain types of information when your Web browser
accesses veroniqueknitwear.com. A number of companies offer utilities designed
to help you visit Web sites anonymously. Although we will not be able to provide
you with a personalized experience at veroniqueknitwear.com if we cannot
recognize you, we want you to be aware that these tools exist.
E-mail Communications: To help us make e-mails more useful and interesting, we
often receive a confirmation when you open e-mail from veroniqueknitwear.com if
your computer supports such capabilities. If you do not want to receive e-mail
or other mail from us, please use our unsubscribe page or update your account
information.
What about Cookies?
Cookies are alphanumeric identifiers that we transfer to your computer's hard
drive through your Web browser to enable our systems to recognize your browser
and to provide features such as, personalized greetings, and storage of items in
your Shopping Cart between visits.
The Help portion of the toolbar on most browsers will tell you how to prevent
your browser from accepting new cookies, how to have the browser notify you when
you receive a new cookie, or how to disable cookies altogether. However, cookies
allow you to take full advantage of some of veroniqueknitwear.com's coolest
features, and we recommend that you leave them turned on.
Does veroniqueknitwear.com Share the Information It Receives?
Information about our customers is an important part of our business, and we are
not in the business of selling it to others. We share customer information only
as described below.
Third-Party Service Providers: We employ other companies and individuals to
perform functions on our behalf. Examples include fulfilling orders, delivering
packages, sending postal mail , removing repetitive information from customer
lists, analyzing data, providing marketing assistance, providing search results
and links (including paid listings and links), processing credit card payments,
and providing customer service. They have access to personal information needed
to perform their functions, but may not use it for other purposes.
Business Transfers: As we continue to develop our business, we might sell or buy
stores, subsidiaries, or business units. In such transactions, customer
information generally is one of the transferred business assets but remains
subject to the promises made in any pre-existing Privacy Notice (unless, of
course, the customer consents otherwise). Also, in the unlikely event that
veroniqueknitwear.com or substantially all of its assets are acquired, customer
information will of course be one of the transferred assets.
Protection of Veronique Knitwear and Others: We release account and other
personal information when we believe release is appropriate to comply with the
law; enforce or apply our and other agreements; or protect the rights, property,
or safety of Veronique Knitwear, our users, or others. This includes exchanging
information with other companies and organizations for fraud protection and
credit risk reduction. Obviously, however, this does not include selling,
renting, sharing, or otherwise disclosing personally identifiable information
from customers for commercial purposes in violation of the commitments set forth
in this Privacy Notice.
With Your Consent: Other than as set out above, you will receive notice when
information about you might go to third parties, and you will have an
opportunity to choose not to share the information.
How Secure Is Information About Me?
We work to protect the security of your information during transmission by using
Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) software, which encrypts information you input.
We reveal only the last five digits of your credit card numbers when confirming
an order. Of course, we transmit the entire credit card number to the
appropriate credit card company during order processing.
It is important for you to protect against unauthorized access to your password
and to your computer. Be sure to sign off when finished using a shared computer.
What about Third-Party Advertisers and Links to Other Websites?
Our site includes third-party advertising and links to other websites. We do not
provide any personally identifiable customer information to these advertisers or
third-party websites.
These third-party websites and advertisers, or Internet advertising companies
working on their behalf, sometimes use technology to send (or "serve") the
advertisements that appear on our website directly to your browser. They
automatically receive your IP address when this happens. They may also use
cookies, JavaScript, web beacons (also known as action tags or single-pixel
gifs), and other technologies to measure the effectiveness of their ads and to
personalize advertising content. We do not have access to or control over
cookies or other features that they may use, and the information practices of
these advertisers and third-party websites are not covered by this Privacy
Notice. Please contact them directly for more information about their privacy
practices. In addition, the Network Advertising Initiative offers useful

information collection.
veroniqueknitwear.com also displays targeted advertising based on personal
information about users. Although veroniqueknitwear.com does not provide any
personal information to advertisers, advertisers (including ad-serving
companies) may assume that users who interact with or click on a targeted
advertisement meet the targeting criteria used to display the ad (for example,
users in England who like Jazz music).

and other legal notices from us, such as this Privacy Notice, those notices will
still govern your use of veroniqueknitwear.com, and it is your responsibility to
review them for changes.)
The Help portion of the toolbar on most browsers will tell you how to prevent
