Westport Office Furniture Statement of
Privacy
This document was last updated March 11, 2003
At Westport Office Furniture, we are committed to protecting your
privacy. You can travel through most of our site without giving
us any information about yourself. But sometimes we do need information
to provide services that you request, and this statement of privacy
explains data collection and use in those situations. Please read
the complete Westport Office Furniture Statement of Privacy.
Collecting your Personal Information
We will ask you when we need information that personally identifies
you (personal information) or allows us to contact you. Generally,
this information is requested when you are contacting us or setting
up an account through our product catalog. Personal information
collected by Westport Office Furniture often is limited to basic
contact information but may include other information when needed
to provide a service you requested.
Use of your Personal Information
We use your personal information for the following purposes:
- To make the site easier for you to use by
not making you enter your personal information more than once.
- To deliver services that you request or purchase.
- To help us create and publish content most
relevant to you.
- To alert you to site updates, special offers,
updated information and other new services from Westport Office
Furniture.
We occasionally hire other companies to provide
limited services on our behalf, including answering customer questions
about products or services, sending postal mail and processing registration
forms. We will only provide those companies the information they
need to deliver the service, and they are prohibited from using
that information for any other purpose.
Westport Office Furniture may disclose your personal
information if required to do so by law or in the good faith belief
that such action is necessary to: (a) conform to the edicts of the
law or comply with legal process served on Westport Office Furniture
or the site; (b) protect and defend the rights or property of Westport
Office Furniture and its family of Web sites, or (c) act in urgent
circumstances to protect the personal safety of users of Westport
Office Furniture, its Web sites, or the public.
Control of your Personal Information
When you register, or otherwise give us personal information, Westport
Office Furniture will not share that information with third parties
without your permission, other than for the limited exceptions already
listed. It will only be used for the purposes stated above.
Registering also allows you to tell us how or whether you want Westport
Office Furniture to communicate with you. At the time of your registration
you set your preferences to be contacted, or you can always tell
us not to contact you.
Westport Office Furniture may send out periodic e-mails
informing you of technical service issues related to a product or
service you requested. You will not be able to choose to unsubscribe
to these mailings, as they are considered an essential part of the
service you have chosen.
Access to your Personal Information
If you would like to review or revise information you previously
provided on an online form, or believe that what we currently have
on record is incorrect, you may update your information in the Account
section of this website. There you will be able to:
- View and edit personal information you have already
given us at Westport Office Furniture.
- Tell us whether you want Westport Office Furniture
to send you email.
- Set preferences for using features on Westport
Office Furniture.
Security of your Personal Information
Westport Office Furniture strictly protects the security of your
personal information and honors your choices for its intended use.
We carefully protect your data from loss, misuse, unauthorized access
or disclosure, alteration, or destruction.
Your personal information is never shared outside
the company without your permission, except under conditions explained
above. Inside the company, data is stored in password-controlled
servers with limited access.
You also have a significant role in protecting your information.
No one can see or edit your personal information without knowing
your password, so do not share this with others.
