Information
Collection and Use
EmiratesFlorist.com is the sole owner of the information collected on this
site. We will not sell, share, or rent this information to others in any
way. EmiratesFlorist collects information from our users during the
ordering process on our website
Order
We request information from the user on our order form. Here a user must
provide contact information (like name and address) and financial
information (like credit card number, expiration date). This information
is used for billing purposes and to fill customer's orders. If we have
trouble processing an order, this contact information is used to get in
touch with the user.
Cookies
A cookie is a piece of data stored on the user's hard drive containing
information about the user. Usage of a cookie is in no way linked to any
personally identifiable information while on our site. Once the user
closes their browser, the cookie simply terminates. A cookie is used on
our site only to keep track of a users session in order to maintain the
shopping cart. If a user rejects the cookie, they may still browse our
site. The only drawback to this is that the user will not be able to place
an order.
Log
Files
We use IP addresses to analyze trends, administer the site, track user's
movement, and gather broad demographic information for aggregate use. IP
addresses are not linked to personally identifiable information.
Sharing
Credit card processing company to bill users for goods and services. These
companies do not retain, share, store or use personally identifiable
information for any secondary purposes
Security
This website takes every precaution to protect our users' information.
When users submit sensitive information via the website, your information
is protected both online and off-line. When our order form asks users to
enter sensitive information (such as credit card number), that information
is encrypted and is protected with the best encryption software in the
industry - SSL. While on a secure page, such as our order form, the lock
icon on the bottom of Web browsers such as Netscape Navigator and
Microsoft Internet Explorer becomes locked, as opposed to un-locked, or
open, when you are just 'surfing'. While we use SSL encryption to protect
sensitive information online, we also do everything in our power to
protect user-information off-line. All of our users' information, not just
the sensitive information mentioned above, is restricted in our offices.
Only employees who need the information to perform a specific job (for
example, our billing clerk or a customer service representative) are
granted access to personally identifiable information. Our employees must
use password-protected screen-savers when they leave their desk. When they
return, they must re-enter their password to re-gain access to your
information. Furthermore, ALL employees are kept up-to-date on our
security and privacy practices. Every quarter, as well as any time new
policies are added, our employees are notified and/or reminded about the
importance we place on privacy, and what they can do to ensure our
customers' information is protected. Finally, the servers that we store
personally identifiable information on are kept in a secure environment,
behind locked doors.
