Privacy
We safeguard all of the personal information that you trust to us. This of course includes sensitive information like your password, email address and credit card number. We use contact and financial information provided by you to send information to you about product availability, upcoming special offers, and to charge your card for items purchased. Be assured that Harmony Sweets will not sell, rent, loan or disseminate any information that you provide to our site.

Security
The Harmony Sweets e-commerce site incorporates the most advanced Internet security features, which guarantees that all of your personal information remains confidential. Authorize.net Corporation, the Internet's leading real-time transaction processor, provides secure server technology for our site.

Information that you submit to our site is encrypted before it is transmitted through the Internet. This is accomplished by SSL (Secured Socket Layer) technology, which makes your transmitted information impossible for a third party to intercept or decode. Encryption is far more secure than giving your credit card over the phone where someone could be listening, or to a cashier where someone can look over your shoulder or obtain your credit card receipt. While on a secure page such as our order form, the lock icon on the bottom of web browsers such as Netscape Navigator and Microsoft Internet Explorer becomes locked, as opposed to un-locked, or open, when users are just 'surfing'.

Legal Disclaimer
Though we make every effort to preserve user privacy, Harmony Sweets may be required by law to disclose information you have provided in obtaining our confections, gifts and newsletter.

Third Party Intermediaries & Aggregate Information
Occasionally we share aggregated demographic information with our suppliers. This is not linked to any personally identifiable information. We contract with an outside credit card processing company (Authorize.net) and bank check processing company to bill customers for goods and services. These companies do not retain, share, store or use personally identifiable information for any secondary purposes.

Affiliated Websites & Links
You may have been referred to our site from an affiliated website. Although Harmony Sweets believes that the website companies that referred you to us are reputable companies, we have not placed limitations on these companies. Therefore, we encourage you to review the privacy policy of any website that referred you to Harmony Sweets. This website may contain links to other sites. We encourage our users to be aware when they leave our site and to read the privacy statements of each website that collects personally identifiable information.

Surveys & Contests
Occasionally our site requests information from users through contests or surveys. Participation in these surveys or contests is completely voluntary and therefore you have a choice whether or not to disclose this information. The requested information typically includes contact information (such as name and shipping address) and demographic information such as zip code. Contact information will be used to notify the winners and to award prizes. Survey information will be used for purposes of monitoring or improving the use and satisfaction of this website.
