Our Privacy Commitment
At POETSPULPIT we know how important it is to protect your personal
information. We want to make every customer experience safe and secure.
In keeping with that goal, we have developed this Privacy Policy to
outline our guidelines for the collection and use of personal information
by POETSPULPIT.
What Information does POETSPULPIT Collect and How is it Used?
At POETSPULPIT we collect two types of information: personal information
and non-personal information.
With your consent we may use your personal information for a number
of different purposes, for example to:
fulfill requests for products, services or information;
provide customer services;
administer promotions;
offer new products and services;
measure and improve the effectiveness of our Web Sites or our marketing
endeavors; and
tailor our online offerings to your preferences.
We may also collect and summarize customer information in a format that
no longer identifies the individual for statistical purposes.
Personal information typically includes your name, address, phone number,
and e-mail address. Personal information is required in order for POETSPULPIT
to complete your transaction and ensure that the product is mailed to
the correct address.
Non-personal information does not identify you as an individual. For
example, we may ask you for your postal code to assist us with planning
our flyer distribution.
Your Implied Consent
In some cases, your consent is implied if we ask you to provide
personal information with a stated purpose. For example, we
can only deliver the product you have purchased if you provide
us with your address and phone number.
Withdrawing Your Consent
If you have "opted in" or subscribed to one of
our newsletters or mailing lists, we will always provide you
the opportunity to "opt out" or unsubscribe. For
example, each e-mail we send you will tell you how to decline
further e-mail.
Information POETSPULPIT Collects from You
Listed here are some examples of the ways that we collect information
about you and how we use it.
Our Web Site
While using our Web Sites, you may be asked to voluntarily provide
certain personal information (such as your name, email address, postal
address, telephone number, or credit card information). We use this
information to complete your transaction and to apply for access to
certain special features and functions of the Web Sites. If you choose
not to provide requested personal information, you will not be able
to use certain features of the Web Sites and you will not be able to
engage in transactions through the Web Sites.
With any of the services on our Web Sites, we may also use your personal
information to contact and correspond with you and to respond to your
inquiries. With your consent, we may send to you, from time to time,
email or other communications regarding goods or services we believe
will interest you.
All references to our Web Site in this Policy means POETSPULPIT.com
Sign-Up for Newsletters or Updates
POETSPULPIT also offers our clients the option of subscribing to the
POETSPULPIT mailing list. You can choose to subscribe by visiting our
Web Site and selecting the "Add to the PoetsPulpit.com Mailing
List" option in the "customer information page". To enroll,
we will collect your contact information (such as name and e-mail address).
This information will only be used to send you email..
Participate in Interactive Discussion
Certain pages of our Web Site facilitate real-time interactive discussions
between users and POETSPULPIT staff or agents acting on our behalf regarding
products available for purchase through the Web Site. These discussions
are initiated by POETSPULPIT based upon non-personal information automatically
collected about Web Site users. You are not obliged to engage in interactive
discussions or provide any personal information during these discussions.
Information POETSPULPIT.com Collects Automatically
Like many other Web sites, we automatically collect certain non-personal
information regarding Web site users that does not identify you. Examples
include the Internet Protocol (IP) address of your computer, the IP
address of your Internet Service Provider, the date and time you access
the Web Site, the Internet address of the Web site from which you linked
directly to the Web Site, the operating system you are using, the sections
of the Web Site you visit, the Web Site pages read and images viewed,
and the content you download from the Web Site.
This non-personal information is used for Web Site and system administration
purposes and to improve the Web Site.
Cookies
The Web Site uses "cookies", a technology that installs a
small amount of information on a Web Site user's computer to permit
the Web Site to recognize future visits using that computer. Cookies
enhance the convenience and use of the Web Site. For example, the information
provided through cookies is used to recognize you as a previous user
of the Web Site (so you do not have to enter your billing information
every time), to offer personalized Web page content and information
for your use, to track your activity at the Web Site, to respond to
your needs, and to otherwise facilitate your Web Site experience. You
may choose to decline cookies if your browser permits, but doing so
may affect your use of the Web Site and your ability to access certain
features of the Web Site or engage in transactions through the Web Site.
Tracking Information
We may use non-personal information to compile tracking information
reports regarding Web Site user demographics, Web Site traffic patterns,
and Web Site purchases, and then provide those reports to advertisers
and others. None of the tracking information in the reports can be connected
to the identities or other personal information of individual users.
We may also link tracking information with personal information voluntarily
provided by Web Site users. Once such a link is made, all of the linked
information is treated as personal information and will be used and
disclosed only in accordance with this Policy.
Links to Other Web Sites
Our Web Site may contain links to other Web sites or Internet resources.
When you click on one of those links you are contacting another Web
site or Internet resource. POETSPULPIT has no responsibility or liability
for or control over those other Web sites or Internet resources or their
collection, use and disclosure of your personal information.
We encourage you to read the privacy policies of those other sites
to learn how they collect and use information about you.
Does POETSPULPIT.com Disclose the Information it Collects?
POETSPULPIT does not sell your personal information. However we may
share your information with third parties acting on our behalf or as

Disclosure to Service Providers
POETSPULPIT may share your personal information with certain service
providers in order to provide products and services to you, to verify
and validate information, and to address customer service matters..
Examples of service providers include credit card issuers, and delivery
services. To reduce the risk of fraud or misuse of personal information,
POETSPULPIT may also verify your personal information, including but
not limited to your address and credit card information, with third
party service providers.
We will use reasonable efforts to ensure that your personal information
is used in a manner that is consistent with this Policy. If you do not
wish us to provide your personal information to those service providers,
we may be unable to process your transaction.
Legal Disclosure
POETSPULPIT may disclose your information as permitted or required
to by law; for example:
to a government institution or other person or entity that has asserted
its lawful authority to obtain the information;

to comply with a subpoena or warrant or an order made by a court, person
or entity with jurisdiction to compel the production of information;
