Our Privacy Policy
Thank you for visiting our website.
When you visit our website, your
security and privacy becomes our
responsibility. That's why every
transaction you make with us is treated
with safety, security, and confidentiality.
Secure Shopping
We realize that you may have concerns
about placing an order online and
sending us your credit card number
over the Internet. For your security,
orders placed on our site are encrypted
using SSL (Secure Socket Layer)
technology, which ensures that
your transaction is protected.
The information you send to us
via the Internet can be trusted
to arrive privately and unaltered.
Please note that e-mail is not
encrypted and is not considered
a secure means of transmitting
credit card numbers. If you would
like to learn more about Secure
Shopping on our website, see below.
Or, if you have any questions regarding
Secure Shopping on our website,
please contact us.
Your credit card number is secure
When you use your credit card to
shop at countryhomeproducts.com,
rest assured that the transaction
is secure. Our servers use Secure
Socket Layer (SSL), an advanced
encryption technology that works
with Netscape Navigator (versions
2.0 and above), Microsoft Internet
Explorer (version 3.0 and above),
and AOL (AOL 3.0 and above). This
technology safeguards your personal
information and guarantees privacy.
You are protected against credit
card fraud
In the unlikely event that your credit
card is subject to fraudulent charges
as a result of making a purchase
at countryhomeproducts.com, you are
completely protected. Under federal
law (the Fair Credit Act), your credit
card company can hold you liable
for no more than $50 in fraudulent
charges to your account. If, for
whatever reason, you are held responsible
for this amount, Country Home Products
will cover the entire liability for
you, up to $50. Your credit card
company will cover the rest.
How to check the security of your
browser
To check the security of your connection,
look at the lower left- or right-hand
corner of your browser window after
accessing the server. If you see
an unbroken key or a closed lock
(depending on your browser), then
SSL is active and the page you are
accessing is being transmitted by
SSL. You can also double-check by
looking at the URL line of your browser.
When accessing a secure page, the
first characters of the site address
will change from "http" to "https."
Some versions of browsers and some
firewalls don't permit communication
through secure servers. In that case,
you won't be able to connect to the
server and, therefore, won't be able
to place an order through an insecure
connection. If you cannot access
the secure server for any reason,
please call us TOLL-FREE at 1-800-798-2921
to place your order.
If you still feel more comfortable
ordering over the phone, please call
us TOLL-FREE at 1-800-798-2921. One
of our Customer Service Representatives
will be happy to help you.
Your Privacy Online
The Neuton Inc. website is here as
a service to our customers...and
we're committed to making it private.
As a rule, we do not collect any
personal information about you when
you visit our website, unless you
provide it to us. If you place an
online order or request a catalog,
we do ask for information such as
your name, mailing address, telephone
number, and e-mail address. If you
do give us your postal or e-mail
address, you may receive periodic
mailings from us with information
on sales events or new products.
If you do not wish to receive such
mailings, please contact us.
Occasionally, we may share your
name and mailing address with companies
we believe may be of interest to
you. If you prefer not to receive
mailings from other companies, please
contact us.
To help us understand how people
use our website and how we might
improve it, we do track, in aggregate,
how visitors access and use our site.
So that we can better understand
the strength of our marketing efforts,
we also make a record of when people
click through to our website from
an advertisement, search engine listing,
and other sites where we pay for
representation.
If you would like to learn more about
Your Privacy Online, please see below.

Your Privacy Online, please contact

Information we collect online and
how it is used
We gather information about visitors
to our site for two reasons: to provide
a product or service you have requested
and to improve our website, so that
we may better serve your needs. The
only information we collect about
you, personally, is the information
you choose to provide. In several
areas of our site, we ask you to
provide information by filling out
and submitting an online form.
These
areas include:
* Catalog Requests:
To send you one of our catalogs,
we need your name and address. At
this point, we may also ask a few
questions, such as, "How did
you hear about us?" Answering
these questions is optional and we
do not share the answers to these
questions with anyone.
* E-mail Mailing List: For subscriptions
to our e-mail program, we need only your e-mail address. We
do not sell, rent, or trade your e-mail address with anyone,
for any reason.
* Purchases: In order to process and deliver
your purchases, we need your name, address, phone number, e-mail
address, and credit card information.
In addition to the above, each time
you visit our website we do collect
information about how you accessed
our site and the particular pages
you viewed. The reason we gather
this type of information is to better
understand what customers want when
they visit countryhomeproducts.com.
However, it's important to note that
we do not analyze this information
on an individual visitor level. Instead,
we analyze the combined data from
the thousands of visitors to our
website. As we study the data we
find that trends often appear that
can help us improve our website.
For instance, with this data we can
learn which parts of our website
are accessed most frequently, or
which search engines visitors use
to find our website.
Additionally, we have carefully
selected affiliates to apply third-party
advertising technology to serve ads
when you visit our site and sites
where we advertise. This advertising
technology uses information about
your visits to our site and the sites
where we advertise (excluding your
name, address or other personal information)
to serve our ads to you. In the course
of serving our advertisements to
you, a unique cookie may be placed
or recognized on your browser. In
addition, these affiliates use "web
beacons", which are small strings
of code delivered by a transparent
graphic image on a web page for purposes
of transferring data, to help manage
our online advertising. These web
beacons enable our ad server to recognize
a browser's cookie when a browser
visits this site and to learn which
banner ads bring users to our site.
The information we collect and share
through this technology is not personally
identifiable.
Any information we collect about
our customers is stored in a secure
database.

Information we do not collect
When you visit our site, we do not
collect your name, e-mail address
or any other personal information
unless you provide it to us, as
described above.
About cookies and how we use them
A cookie is a small file that a Website
puts on your computer's hard drive
so that it can remember you at
a later time. This file contains
nothing more than a 32-digit code.
It does not contain your name,
address, or any other personal
information. Our cookies do not
identify an individual user specifically,
such as by name or address.
We use cookies for two reasons.
(1) Cookies allow us to retain any
items you've placed in your shopping
basket, should you decide to leave
your shopping basket and view other
areas on our site, or other websites.
If you do this, when you are done
and return to your shopping basket,
the items you selected are still
there for you to buy. (2) Cookies
also tell us whether you have visited
neutonpower.com previously, and help
us determine whether you came to
our website from a particular Internet
link or banner advertisement.
It's important to note that the
data we gather via cookies is analyzed
in aggregate. This means we analyze
the trends established by thousands
of visitors through our site. We
do not analyze data on the individual
customer level.
How we use e-mail
We use e-mail for two purposes: To
notify you about the status of
an order you placed on our website
and to provide information you
have requested.
After you place an order on our
site, you will receive an e-mail
message confirming your order. You
will receive this only if you have
provided your e-mail address during
checkout or when registering.
If you signed up to receive our
Neuton Savings or Weekly Special
E-mail, we'll occasionally send you
messages about new products, special
promotions, or online sales. Any
time we contact you by e-mail, you
will be given the choice to opt out
of receiving further e-mails from
us.
If you currently receive our e-mails
and do not wish to continue receiving
them, please contact us.
Information we do not share with
others
Country Home Products and Neuton
Inc. do not share, sell or trade
e-mail addresses, telephone numbers,
information collected as part of
a survey or specific details about
you or your household, except as
described above in Your Privacy Online.
In the event that we merge with,
are acquired by, or sell a substantial
portion of our business to another
company, or if we engage in a similar
corporate transaction, we reserve
the right to transfer the information
we have collected from visitors to
our website and from our customers
to the successor company. This successor’s
use of this information would be
governed by our privacy policy in
effect at that time, as may be revised
by the successor after the date of
any such transaction.
We may change or modify this Privacy
Policy from time to time. These
changes may affect what information
we collect and how we use it. If
we modify this Privacy Policy, we
will post the revised Privacy Policy
on this Web Site. You should
check this Web Site regularly to
see if any recent changes to this
Privacy Policy have occurred.
Your use of this website represents
your consent to our collection and
use of your information as explained
in this privacy policy. In addition,
your use of this website represents
your agreement to the Terms of Use
represented in this policy.
