Tootles & Slightly knows that you care how information about you is used and shared, and we appreciate your trust that we will do so carefully and sensibly. This notice describes our privacy policy. By visiting Tootles & Slightly, you are accepting the practices described in this Privacy Notice.

Tootles & Slightly does not disclose buyers information to third parties.

Cookies are used on this shopping site, but only to keep track of the contents of your shopping cart once you have selected an item.

Information We Use
We never sell, rent, or distribute your personal information to any company under any circumstances. We do not share your e-mail address with other parties - we absolutely hate spam as much as you. If you choose to purchase a product from us, we collect your name, e-mail address, and billing postal address. We collect this information in order to properly process your purchase. If you choose to contact us and provide personal information about yourself, we will use this information only to respond to your inquiry (e.g. if we need to mail you products, we will obviously disclose your name and mailing address to the Post Office). We will not sell or rent personal information to third parties.

We retain all customer correspondence for at least one year. Correspondence regarding disputed issues may be retained for up to seven years. The only instance in which information contained in correspondence we receive would ever be shared with third party, is if the information in necessary to resolve a dispute that involves the third party (e.g. PayPal).

Each time you request a page during a visit to Tootles & Slightly, we collect certain technical information from your computer. This information may include your Internet Protocol (IP) address, your computer's browser type, operating system and the address of a referring website, if any. We collect this information to enhance your experience during your visit to our site and will not sell or rent this information to any third parties. We use this information to analyze general traffic patterns (e.g. what pages are most/least popular, where are most referrals originating, etc.).

Secure Socket Layer (SSL) Encryption
The security of your personal information is really important to us. For secure e-commerce transactions, all credit card information submissions use Secure Socket Layer (SSL) encryption technology, the most extensively used data encryption coding system.

Tootles & Slightly utilizes a third-party payment service called PayPal because they use 128-bit SSL encryption and they do not reveal customers' credit card numbers or bank account numbers to merchants. All of your information is encrypted (scrambled) prior to being sent over the Internet to PayPal's system.

To verify that your connection is secure, look for a locked padlock icon or solid key icon at the bottom of your browser window. You are also using a secure browser when the letters "https" (rather than "http") are located in the URL address window at the top of your browser.

PayPal has acquired a digital certificate from Verisign, Inc., a leading provider of Internet trust services. When you enter a secure portion of our site (PayPal's shopping cart), an image of a closed lock or a solid key will appear in the bottom bar of your browser window. Clicking on this lock or key will activate a small popup window to display site-security information. This certificate guarantees that your personal information is being transmitted in secure (encrypted) form to a PayPal web server, not to some unauthorized or unknown server.

Once Tootles & Slighlty receives your billing address information, we protect it by placing it on a system behind a secure firewall.

This site contains links to other websites. We are not responsible for the content or privacy policies of those third party web sites. If you have any questions, we invite you to email us at tootles_slightly@yahoo.com.
