The Internet is an amazing tool. It has
the power to change the way we live, and we're starting
to see that potential today. With only a few mouse-clicks, you can follow
the news, look up facts,
buy goods and services, and communicate with others from around the world.
It's important to
River to Reef ® to help our customers
retain their privacy when they take advantage of all the
Internet has to offer.
We believe your business is no
one else's. Your privacy is important to you…and to us. So we'll
protect the information you share with us. To protect your privacy, River
to Reef ® follows
different principles in accordance with worldwide practices for customer
privacy and data
protection.
We won’t sell or give away your name, mail address, phone number,
email address, credit card
number or any other information to anyone.
We’ll use state-of-the-art security measures to protect your information
from unauthorized
users.

primary purposes:
To make the site easier for you to use by not having to enter information

To help us create content most relevant to you.
To alert you to product upgrades, special offers, updated information

orders or access your personal account information, you're utilizing a

Internet. SSL is one of
the safest encryption technologies available.
In addition, your transactions are guaranteed under the Fair Credit Billing

credit card charges. If
your bank does hold you liable for $50.00 or less, we'll cover your liability
provided the
unauthorized, fraudulent use of your credit card resulted through no fault

reporting rules and
procedures.

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

personal information without knowing your user name and password, so do
not share these with
others.

ELECTRONIC PRODUCT REGISTRATION
When you buy and install a new product, we may ask you to register
your purchase
electronically. When you do, we merge your registration information with
any information you've
already left with us (we call that information your personal profile).
If you haven't previously
registered with us, we create a personal profile for you from your product
registration
information. If you ever want to review or update that information, you
can visit the Profile
Centre, click on Update Profile, and edit any of the personal information
in your profile. If you
haven't already created a Registration ID, we will ask you to do so. This
ensures that only you
can access your information.
What we do with the information you share:
When you join us, you provide us with your contact information, including
your name and email
address. We use this information to send you updates about your order,
questionnaires to
measure your satisfaction with our service and announcements about new
and exciting services
that we offer. When you order from us, we ask for your credit card number
and billing address.
We use this information only to bill you for the product(s) you order
at that time. For your
convenience, we do save billing information in case you want to order
from us again, but we
don't use this information again without your permission.
We occasionally hire other companies to provide limited services on our
behalf, including
packaging, mailing and delivering purchases, answering customer questions
about products or
services, sending postal mail and processing event registration. 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.

your personal information, without notice, only if required to do so
