What
Personal Information About Customers Does Krauseschocolates.com
Gather?
- Information
You Give Us: We receive and store any information you enter
on our Web site or give us in any other way. You can choose not
to provide certain information, but then you might not be able
to take advantage of many of our features. We use the information
that you provide for such purposes as responding to your requests,
customizing future shopping for you, improving our stores, and
communicating with you.
- Automatic
Information: We receive and store certain types of information
whenever you interact with us. For example, like many Web sites,
we use "cookies," and we obtain certain types of information when
your Web browser accesses Krauseschocolates.com.
- Information
from Other Sources: We sometimes receive updated delivery
and address information from our shippers or other sources so
that we can correct our records and deliver your next purchase
or communication more easily.
What
About Cookies?
- Cookies
are alphanumeric identifiers that we transfer to your computer's
hard drive through your Web browser to enable our systems to recognize
your browser and for storage of items in your Shopping Cart between
visits.
- The
"help" portion of the toolbar on most browsers will tell you how
to prevent your browser from accepting new cookies, how to have
the browser notify you when you receive a new cookie, or how to
disable cookies altogether. However, cookies allow you to take
full advantage of Krauseschocolates.com, and we recommend that
you leave them turned on.
Does
Krauseschocolates.com Share the Information It Receives?
Information about our customers is an important part of our
business, and we are not in the business of selling it to others.
- Agents:
We employ other companies and individuals to perform functions
on our behalf. Examples include filling orders, delivering
packages, sending postal mail and e-mail, removing repetitive
information from customer lists, analyzing data, providing marketing
assistance, processing credit card payments, and providing customer
service. They have access to personal information needed to perform their functions, but may not use it for other purposes.
- Protection
of Krauseschocolates.com and Others: We release account and
other personal information when we believe release is appropriate
to comply with law; enforce or apply our Conditions of Use and
other agreements; or protect the rights, property, or safety of
Krauseschocolates.com, our users, or others. This includes exchanging
information with other companies and organizations for fraud protection
and credit risk reduction.
- With
Your Consent: Other than as set out above, you will receive
notice when information about you might go to third parties, and
you will have an opportunity to choose not to share the information.
How
Secure Is Information About Me?
- We
work to protect the security of your information during transmission
by using Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) software, which encrypts information
you input.
- We
reveal only the last five digits of your credit card numbers when
confirming an order. Of course, we transmit the entire credit
card number to the appropriate credit card company during order
processing.
- It
is important for you to protect against unauthorized access to
your password and to your computer. Be sure to sign off when finished
using a shared computer.

You
provide most such information when you search, buy, or communicate
with customer service. For example, you provide information when

more than one e-mail address when shopping with us) or communicate

Shipping
Policy
Krauseschocolates.com, Krause's Chocolates, Krause's Candy or any
of its employees or associates does not insure the quality or speed
of delivery by any of our shipping vendors. Refunds, returns or
replacements for any lost, delayed, mishandled, melted,
discolored or damaged chocolates or chocolate items are not the
responsibility of Krauseschocolates.com, Krause's Chocolates, Krause's
Candy or any of its employees or associates. Please also note that we currently only offer shipping to the lower 48 states.
Warm
Weather Shipping Policy
For the months of May through October or when temperatures warrant we recommend that all chocolates be shipped in an insulated container with ice packs in order to prevent the chocolate from melting during the shipping process. The "warm weather" packing will protect the chocolate for 2 days under normal circumstances. We will not ship without these special containers due to the vulnerability of our specialty homemade chocolates to high temperatures. We do not accept returned materials. Since the items are perishables, re-sale of unopened or un-used product violates several public health codes. Thank you for selecting Krause's Chocolates.
Return
and Refund Policy
Krauseschocolates.com,
Krause's Chocolates, Krause's Candy does not offer returns or refunds
on any of its products.
