What information we collect
There are a number of situations in which your personal information may help us give you better service. For example, we may ask for your personal information when you’re discussing a service issue on the phone with an associate, downloading a software update, registering for a seminar, participating in an online survey, registering your products, or purchasing a product. At such times, we may collect personal information relevant to the situation, such as your name, mailing address, phone number, email address, and contact preferences; your credit card information. We collect information for market research purposes to gain a better understanding of our customers and thus provide more valuable service. We also collect information regarding customer activities on our website. This helps us to determine how best to provide useful information to customers and to understand which parts of our websites and Internet services are of most interest to them.
When we disclose your information
Golden Forest Gifts takes your privacy very seriously. Be assured that Golden Forest Gifts does not sell or rent your contact information to other marketers. To help us provide superior service, your personal information may be shared with legal entities within the Golden Forest Gifts who will safeguard it in accordance with Golden Forest Gifts’s privacy policy. There are also times when it may be advantageous for Golden Forest Gifts to make certain personal information about you available to companies that Golden Forest Gifts has a strategic relationship with or that perform work for Golden Forest Gifts to provide products and services to you on our behalf. These companies may help us process information, extend credit, fulfill customer orders, deliver products to you, manage and enhance customer data, provide customer service, assess your interest in our products and services, or conduct customer research or satisfaction surveys. These companies are also obligated to protect your personal information in accordance with Golden Forest Gifts’s policies. Without such information being made available, it would be difficult for you to purchase products, have products delivered to you, receive customer service, provide us feedback to improve our products and services, or access certain services, offers, and content on the Golden Forest Gifts website.
At times we may be required by law or litigation to disclose your personal information. We may also disclose information about you if we determine that for national security, law enforcement, or other issues of public importance, disclosure is necessary.
