Privacy Policy
We know that your privacy is very important to you, and we value the trust you
place in Cadianda Internet Services. ("Cadianda") and the companies Cadianda
owns and operates ("affiliates"). That's why we want to ensure that you understand
how we will and will not use the information you entrust to us. Cadianda may
update this policy from time to time. Please check back periodically for changes.
Secure shopping
Shopping on Cadianda's web sites (www.cadianda.com,
shopping.cadianda.com,
peto.cadianda.com , and
astore.amazon.ca/storecanada-20)
is safe. When you place on order online, and your information, including your
credit card number and delivery address, is transmitted using industry standard
security measures called SSL (secure socket layer encryption). This encrypts
order data, and is designed to aid in ensuring the accuracy and security of
that customer information.
What type of information does Cadianda collect?
Cadianda gathers customer information needed to help us provide better customer
service, personalize and continually improve your shopping experience, and to
communicate offers on merchandise and services which we believe will be of interest
to you, and to manage our business. In order to best serve you, we may gather
information in the following instances:
- Automatic information: when you visit our site, we receive
and store non-personally identifiable information from you. For example, like
many web sites, we use "cookies" that collect certain data (see section on
Cookies to follow), such as your IP address, browser type, domain name and
specific Cadianda web pages through which you click. This data is collected
automatically and used in aggregate to help us improve our web sites and your
experience on our sites.
- Information you provide to us: We receive and store any
information that you enter on our web sites or give us in any other way. For
example, you provide information when you search for a product, place an order,
provide information in your account (and you might have more than one if you
have used more than one e-mail address when shopping with us), or complete
a questionnaire or contest entry form. As a result of those actions, you might
voluntarily supply us with such information as your name, address, telephone
number, e-mail address, credit card information, and people to whom purchases
have been shipped, including address and phone number. For online purchases,
we need this information (specifically e-mail addresses, addresses, credit
card information, and phone numbers) to process and fulfill your order and
notify you of your order status. We also allow you to opt-in to participate
in our online "Cadianda Buyer" surveys. These surveys are designed to ask
customers for feedback on our products and services, existing and future features
on our web sites, and online and offline shopping experiences. Survey responses
are used for internal management purposes. You can opt-in to become a Cadianda
Buyer when you subscribe to our e-mail program. You are not required to respond
to a survey in order to visit our web sites or take advantage of any of our
sites' features.
- E-mail communication: Another example of when we may ask
you to voluntarily provide personally identifiable information includes if
you subscribe to our e-mail program. As part of subscribing to our e-mail
program to may provide information such as your name and e-mail address, choose
to provide us preference information (such as interests, product preferences
and items purchased), or when you enter a sweepstakes or contest (information
such as name, address, e-mail address and telephone number).
- Demographic information: Additionally, in order to provide
you with goods and services designed to meet your needs, we may collect demographic
information (such as number of household members, age and gender), purchase
preference information, and information from third party sources that we add
to our account information. We use this information to continuously improve
personalization of our web sites.
Does Cadianda share my information with other companies?
Cadianda does not trade, rent or sell your personal information to others. We
share customer information only with members of the Cadianda family of businesses
to provide you with products or services that you have requested or to provide
you with promotional offers that we believe will be of interest to you. The
Cadianda family of businesses includes all Cadianda affiliates as well as other
selected businesses with which Cadianda has a relationship and which perform
functions on our behalf. Examples include fulfilling orders, sending postal
mail and e-mail, analyzing data, providing marketing assistance, processing
credit card payments, and providing customer service. They have access to this
data only to perform their operational or other support functions, but may not
use it for other purposes. Additionally, when you apply for a Cadianda credit
card online, Cadianda may share information about your application with credit
bureaus. We also may provide information to regulatory authorities and law enforcement
officials in accordance with applicable law or when we otherwise believe in
good faith that the law requires it. In the even of a sale of all or part of
our businesses, we may share customer information related to that business as
part of the transaction.

for the privacy of your children online. Cadianda does not sell products for
purchase by children. We sell children's products for purchase by adults. If
