Information Collection and Use
TheDiscountSexToys.com will not share, sell or rent this
information to others in any way other than as disclosed
in this policy or stated at the point where the
information is collected. TheDiscountSexToys.com
collects information from our users in several areas of
our Web site as described in this privacy policy.
Order Forms
We request information from you on our order
form, including your contact information (such as name,
email and shipping address) and financial information
(such as credit card number and expiration date). This
information is used to fill your orders and for billing
and shipping purposes. If we have trouble processing
your order, we may use this contact information to get
in touch with you. We share this information, and only
that information that we believe is necessary, with
those third parties that are involved in the processing
of your order. For example, the financial institution
that issued your credit card, and the shipping carrier
that delivers your order. However, we never actually
store your credit card in our database. It is discarded
the moment your card is authorized. If you supply us
with your postal address in this manner, you may receive
periodic mailings from us with information on new
products and services or upcoming events. If you do not
wish to receive such mailings, please follow our opt-out
instructions below ("Your Choice to Opt-Out").
Sharing
As all other retail stores, we use a credit card
processing merchant bank to bill users for goods and
services. This company is contractually obligated to not
retain, share, store or use personally identifiable
information for any secondary purposes.
If you
contact TheDiscountSexToys.com via email regarding any
matter, you will not be contacted for any reason other
than as a response to the question or feedback. You will
not be defaulted into receiving any promotional material
simply by contacting us.
Aside from the previously mentioned third parties
involved in the processing of your order, we do not
share your personally identifiable information with any
other entities. We also may disclose your information to
a third party if we believe in good faith that the law
or legal process requires it, to protect the rights or
property of TheDiscountSexToys.com or others, or as
otherwise described in this privacy policy.
Security
We want to protect your information. When you
submit sensitive information on our Web site, we take
commercially reasonable steps to protect your
information online and off-line. When you provide
sensitive information on our site (such as credit card
number), that information is encrypted and protected
with encryption software while in transit. While you are
on a secure page, such as our order form page, the lock
icon on the bottom of Web browsers such as Netscape
Navigator and Microsoft Internet Explorer becomes
locked. While we use encryption software to protect
sensitive information online, we also use our best
efforts to protect your information off-line. Access to
all of our users' information is restricted in our
offices. We take reasonable steps to ensure that only
employees who need the information to perform a specific
job are granted access to personally identifiable
information. The servers on which we store personally
identifiable information are kept in a secure
environment behind a locked cage.
We
utilize industry standard SSL encryption when accepting
your credit card information during our online checkout
process. In addition, we utilize the same encryption
standard when transferring your credit card data to our
internal fulfillment system. To further enhance our
security measures, our fulfillment system is protected
from access via the Internet and we we never store your
actual credit card information.

This Web site contains links to other Web
sites. We are not responsible for the privacy practices
of the other sites. We encourage you to read the privacy
statements of each and every Web site that collects
personally identifiable information. This privacy policy
applies solely to information collected by this Web
site.

Policy. In addition, such data may be stored on servers
