Privacy Statement

At www.leathersmithdesigns.com, we know that your online privacy and security is as important to you as the leather products, quality craftsmanship, prices, and customer service we provide. We posted this privacy policy to answer your privacy related questions, and to demonstrate our adherence to the privacy practices commonly found at the most reputable and consumer credited online companies. This privacy notice applies solely to information collected by this web site.

Security

Orders placed on our site are encrypted using SSL technology, the industry-standard authentication and encryption technology, to ensure your transactions are protected and kept secure while being transmitted via the internet. You can verify this online security during checkout by looking for a closed lock icon on your web browser, or looking for "https" at the beginning of the address of the web page.

While we use encryption to protect sensitive information transmitted online, we also protect your information offline. Only our employees who need the information to perform a specific job (for example, billing or customer service) are granted access to personally identifiable information. The computers/servers in which we store personally identifiable information are kept in a secure environment.

Please note that e-mail and e-mail forms are not encrypted, and therefore NOT a secure means of transmitting credit card information. We NEVER request sensitive information by e-mail. Should you need to provide credit card information to us other than through our secure online check out, please phone us directly.

While shopping on the leathersmithdesigns.com web site, we ask you to provide information using online forms. We use this information to process your order, contact you regarding your order, or to answer any questions/concerns you might have expressed. We will not sell or rent any of your personal information to any outside parties. When you purchase something from us, your credit card information, phone number, name, billing address and the order dollar amount is sent to your credit card company for authorization and approval as well as through PayPal which processes your credit card or PayPal transaction. Your name, telephone number and shipping information must be provided to shippers such as USPS and Canada Post to deliver your package. These companies do not retain, share, store or use personally identifiable information for any secondary purposes beyond filling your order.

We only use permission based opt-in email to send our occasional e-mail newsletter about news, updates and specials. If you have not opted-in to receive our e-mail newsletters, you will not receive these e-mails. This opt-in email service is managed for us by Constant Contact.
