Our Commitment To Privacy

Your privacy is important to us and we pledge to handle your personal information as if it were our own. To better protect your privacy we provide this notice explaining our online information practices and the choices you can make about the way your information is collected and used. To make this notice easy to find, we make it available on our homepage.

The Information We Collect

CardsbySanta.com is owned and operated by Anytime Card Company. This notice applies to all information collected or submitted via www.CardsbySanta.com and Anytime Card Company. On some pages, you can order products, make requests, and register to receive materials. The types of personal information collected on these pages includes:

• Customer name
• Customer address
• Email address
• Phone number
• Credit card information, including card number, expiration date and billing address
• Letter recipient's name
• Letter recipient's gender
• Letter recipient's address

The Way We Use Information

We use the information you provide about yourself when placing an order only to complete that order and we do not share this information with outside parties except to the extent necessary to complete that order.

We use the information you provide about someone else when placing an order only to prepare and ship the product and to confirm delivery. We do not share this information with outside parties except to the extent necessary to complete that order.

We use return email addresses to answer the email we receive and while such addresses are never shared with outside parties, we may contact you subsequently about special offers, sales or promotions in which you have previously shown interest.

We use non-identifying and aggregate information to better design our web site and to share with advertisers. For example, we may tell an advertiser that X number of individuals visited a certain area on our web site, or that Y number of men and Z number of women filled out a form, but we would not disclose anything that could be used to identify those individuals.

Finally, we never use or share the personally identifiable information provided to us online in ways unrelated to the ones described above without also providing you an opportunity to opt-out or otherwise prohibit such unrelated uses.

Our Commitment To Data Security

CardsBySanta.com takes every precaution to protect our users’ information.  When users submit sensitive information, their information is protected both online and off-line.

When our registration/order form asks users to enter sensitive information (such as credit card number), that information is encrypted and is protected with the best encryption software in the industry - SSL.  While on a secure page, such as our order form, the lock icon on the bottom of Web browsers such as Netscape Navigator and Microsoft Internet Explorer becomes locked, as opposed to un-locked, or open, when users are just ‘surfing’.

While we use SSL encryption to protect sensitive information online, we also do everything in our power to protect user-information off-line.  All of our users’ information, not just the sensitive information mentioned above, is restricted in our offices.  Only employees who need the information to perform a specific job (for example, our billing clerk or a customer service representative) are granted access to personally identifiable information.  Our employees must use password-protected screen savers when they leave their desk.  When they return, they must re-enter their password to re-gain access to user information.  Furthermore, ALL employees are kept up-to-date on our security and privacy practices.  Every quarter, as well as any time new policies are added, our employees are notified and/or reminded about the importance we place on privacy, and what they can do to ensure our users’ information is protected.  Finally, the servers that store personally identifiable information are in a secure environment, in a locked facility.

Our Commitment To Children's Privacy

Protecting the privacy of young people is especially important to us. For that reason, we never maintain information on our web servers from those or about those we actually know are under 13, and no part of our web site is structured to attract anyone under 13.

Notification of Changes

If we decide to change our privacy policy, we will post those changes to this privacy statement, on our homepage, and other places we deem appropriate so our users are always aware of what information we collect, how we use it, and under what circumstances, if any, we disclose it. 

If, however, we are going to use users’ personally identifiable information in a manner different from that stated at the time of collection we will notify users via email and offer them the opportunity to opt-out.
