On those MoonChild Direct sites where you may provide MoonChild Direct with credit card, electronic payment service, or other ordering information via the Web, MoonChild Direct protects and secures this information by employing commercially customary Web-based security and encryption protocols, an example of which is the Secure Socket Layer (SSL). On those sites where you voluntarily offer any feedback, data, answers, questions, comments, suggestions, ideas or the like, MoonChild Direct will treat that portion of the information as non-confidential and non-proprietary and, except as otherwise expressed in this privacy statement, MoonChild Direct assumes no obligation to protect such information from disclosure.

It usually includes information about the Internet address assigned to your computer, the number and frequency of visitors, and the MoonChild Direct sites visited. MoonChild Direct gathers this information for the limited purpose of determining customer service and Web site needs. We accomplish this by using certain technologies, including “cookies” (a technology that can be used to provide the visitor with tailored information about MoonChild Direct services). MoonChild Direct does not combine information collected in this way with any personally identifiable information. You can set your Web browser to notify you when you receive a cookie and you can refuse it.

MoonChild Direct cannot safeguard any information you disclose in these locations. Additionally, MoonChild Direct Web sites may contain links to sites that belong to third parties unrelated to MoonChild Direct. MoonChild Direct cannot protect any information you may disclose at these sites and recommends that you review the privacy policy statements of those sites you visit.
