Discounts 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
Petlanddiscounts.com, you are accepting the practices described in
this Privacy Notice.
What Personal Information About Customers Does Petlanddiscounts.com
Gather?
The information we learn from customers helps us personalize and continually
improve your shopping experience at Petlanddiscounts.com. Here are
the types of information we gather.
• Information You Give Us: We receive and store
any information you enter on our Web site or give us in any other
way. You can choose not to provide certain information, but then you
might not be able to take advantage of many of our features. We use
the information that you provide for such purposes as responding to
your requests, customizing future shopping for you, improving our
stores, and communicating with you. We reserve the right to use aggregated,
anonymous data about our users as a group. For instance, we might
report to potential advertisers that a certain percentage of our users
are interested in certain cat breeds, based on online surveys or other
requests.
• Automatic Information: We receive and store
certain types of information whenever you interact with us. For example,
like many Web sites, we use "cookies," and we obtain certain
types of information when your Web browser accesses Petlanddiscounts.com.
It is possible to turn off cookies in your browser preferences, although
if you do so, certain parts of this website may not work properly.
• Contests and Other Special Programs: From
time to time we may conduct contests or other promotions or request
material for publication from our users. To participate, you usually
must supply us with your true identity, which you agree to have publicly
associated with your submission. The exact rules vary from case to
case, and will be noted clearly on the relevant pages or emailing.
Your participation will always be voluntary and knowing. Contact information
will be used in order to notify contest winners.
Does Petlanddiscounts.com Share the Information It Receives?
• Information about our customers is an important part of our
business, and we do not sell it to others. We will not share customer
information with any third parties, other than a Petland Discounts
agent, except as set forth in this privacy policy or if we are required
to comply with valid legal demands, such as a court order or subpoena.
How Secure Is Information About Me?
• We work to protect the security of your information during
transmission by using Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) software, which encrypts
information you input.
• It is important for you to protect against unauthorized access
to your password and to your computer. Be sure to sign off when finished
using a shared computer.
What Choices Do I Have?
• As discussed above, you can always choose not to provide information,
even though it might be needed to make a purchase or to take advantage
of certain Petlanddiscounts.com features.
• If you do not want to receive e-mail or other mail from us,
please send and email to Onlinehelp@petlanddiscounts.com with the
word NOMAIL in the subject line.
• The help portion of the toolbar on most browsers will tell
you how to prevent your browser from accepting new cookies, how to
have the browser notify you when you receive a new cookie, or how
to disable cookies altogether.
Children
Petlanddiscounts.com does not sell products for purchase by children.
If you are under 18, you may use Petlanddiscounts.com only with the
involvement of a parent or guardian.

Conditions
of Use, Notices, and Revisions
If you choose to visit Petlanddiscounts.com, your visit and any dispute
over privacy is subject to this Notice and our Conditions of Use,
including limitations on damages, arbitration of disputes, and application
of the law of the state of Washington. If you have any concern about

Our business changes constantly, and our Privacy Notice and the Conditions
of Use will change also. We may e-mail periodic reminders of our notices
and conditions, unless you have instructed us not to, but you should
check our Web site frequently to see recent changes. Unless stated
otherwise, our current Privacy Notice applies to all information that
we have about you and your account. We stand behind the promises we
make, however, and will never materially change our policies and practices
to make them less protective of customer information collected in
the past without the consent of affected customers.
