Privacy Policy
The Green Shop is sensitive to the data transmission and privacy interests of our valued customers. One of our key responsibilities therefore is to protect those interests.
In acknowledgment of these responsibilities, The Green Shop has developed and adopted the following Privacy Policy applicable to information we receive from customers as a direct result of our business:
Acquisition of Information:
We do not acquire any more information about consumers than is required by law or is otherwise necessary to provide a high level of service efficiently and securely.
When Credit Card Numbers are collected, we simply pass them onto the appropriate Financial Institution.
We never permanently store complete Credit Card Numbers.
Transmission of Data
All data is acquired under 128-Bit SSL Security and only customers whose internet browsers support global 128-Bit encryption can use our system.
Customer Sessions
All customer sessions with the secure The Green Shop Merchant Servers have a 15 minute timeout feature. After this time, the customer is required to reconnect to our system to re-gain access.
Our Employees and Privacy
We train all of our employees about the importance of security and privacy. We give access to information about consumers only to those employees who require it to perform their jobs.
Security Measures
We make access to privacy-sensitive information subject to rigorous procedural and technological controls, consistent with legal requirements and the demands of customer service.
Disclosure to Third Parties
We will provide individually identifiable information about consumers to third parties only if we are compelled to do so by order of a duly empowered governmental authority, we have the express permission of the consumer, or it is necessary to process transactions and provide our services.
Privacy and Our Business Partners
When we make our technology or services available to business partners, we will not share with them any more consumer information than is necessary, and we will make every reasonable effort to assure, by contract or otherwise, that they use our technology and services in a manner that is consistent with this Privacy Policy.
