We at Bromfield Pen Shop respect your privacy. Any information that you provide to us is used for the purpose of improving your Bromfield Pen Shop online experience. We use your information to personalize your online experience and to provide information about sales, specials and new editions. When you purchase a product on Bromfield Pen Shop's site, we ask you for the following information: name, address, phone number, e-mail address, and credit card information. All of this information is used to process your order. If necessary, we may need to use this information to contact you regarding your order.

You may receive periodic postings/mailings from Bomfield Pen Shop with information on new products, services, or upcoming events. If you do not wish to receive such postings/mailings, please let us know by sending e-mail correspondence to Bromfield Pen Shop (click on the help link located at the top of each page to contact us).

All information that we collect from you is stored in a secure database. No personal or account information collected on the Bromfield Pen Shop Web site is accessible by the public via the Internet or any other means.

Under no circumstances will we make you personal information, such as name, address, or buying habits, available to any third party without your express permission.

Bromfield Pen Shop values its customers and wants to make your online experience as comfortable and safe as possible. We have taken every currently available precaution to safeguard your personal and financial information. The Bromfield Pen Shop site has security measures in place to protect the loss, misuse and alteration of the information under its control. All user-specific activities (those that are accessed during and after a user logs-in with their user name and password) are protected using a secure communications encryption technology called SSL (Secure Socket Layer).

SSL is a method for hiding information which prevents anyone from intercepting and reading the data sent between you through your computer and our server. Transactions through a server using SSL are far safer than using a credit card at other retail establishments because small bits of data are encrypted and secured when transmitted during an SSL connection.

For added safety, if our customer service department suspects anything to be improper with your order and/or your credit card, they will contact you and get voice authorization from you.

Unfortunately, no data transmission over the Internet can be guaranteed 100% secure. As a result, while we strive to protect your personal and financial information, Bromfield Pen Shop cannot ensure or warranty the security of any information you transmit to us, or from our online products or services, and you do so at your own risk.

As an e-commerce business, we deliver the highest levels of trust and security so you can be certain that your information stays private. To deliver the world's highest level of trust, that authenticates our organization, enabling you to verify our site and communicate via state-of-the-art SSL. This protects confidential information - such as credit card numbers, online forms, and financial data - from interception and hacking.

You can verify that your transmissions are encrypted by looking in the lower left corner of Netscape 3.0 (gold key should be connected and background highlighted) or Netscape 4.0/Internet Explorer (padlock should be in locked position, not open position).

At Bromfield Pen Shop, we respect your right to confidentiality, and are committed to protecting your privacy. The information we gather on our Web site is used to process your order efficiently and effectively.
