Privacy Policy

Plum has created this privacy policy in order to demonstrate our firm commitment to our visitors' and customers' privacy. The following discloses our information-gathering and -dissemination practices for this Web site: www.plummagazine.com (the 'Site').


Personal and Non-Personal Information
When registering at the Site, purchasing merchandise on the Site, or responding to a survey, you may be asked to provide certain personally identifiable information about yourself, such as your name, e-mail address, physical address and/or telephone number. For purchases, we require your name, physical address, telephone number and credit card number and expiration date.

We use personal information provided on order forms, such as a purchaser's name, address, and credit card, to fulfill merchandise orders. We may also use order information to contact a purchaser when necessary, such as when a delivery may be delayed or when an ordered product is out of stock. Although Plum does not currently use personal information to notify consumers about new products or services or for any other commercial purposes, we may do so in the future. If we do, we will provide you with an e-mail address by which you may inform us that you do not wish to receive such materials in the future. Plum will not share any personal information with any unaffiliated third parties.

We may also request non-personally identifiable information, such as annual income, buying preferences, or age, also known as demographic and profile data, though providing this information is optional. We may use this data to improve our site and enhance your browsing and shopping experience. For example, we may use this data to tailor your experience at our site, showing you content that we think you might be interested in, and displaying content according to your preferences. We may also share this information with others, such as advertisers interested in advertising on the Site, in aggregated, anonymous form, such that the information will not contain any personally identifiable information about you or any other person.

Cookies
'Cookies' are pieces of information that are placed on an individual's computer hard drive to enable the individual to more easily communicate and interact with a Web site. Plum may use cookies to customize your shopping experience, to keep track of your shopping cart and to make sure you don't see the same ad repeatedly. We use cookies to deliver content specific to your interests, to save your password (if you have registered with us) so you don't have to re-enter it each time you visit our site, and for other purposes. However, you may disallow cookies through your web browser and still shop on our site. Plum will never use cookies to retrieve information from your computer that is unrelated to the Site or your interaction with the Site.

Internet Protocol (IP) Address
We may use your IP address to help diagnose problems with our server, and to administer the Site. Your IP address is used to help identify you and your shopping cart for the duration of a session and to gather broad demographic information.

Clickstream
As you browse the Internet, a trail of electronic information is left at each web site you visit. This information, which is sometimes called 'clickstream' data, can be collected and stored by a web site's server. Clickstream data can tell us the type of computer and browsing software you use, the address of the web site from which you linked to the Site and, in some instances, your e-mail address. We may use clickstream data to determine how much time you spend on each page of the Site and how you navigate throughout the Site. We will only use this information to improve the Site. Any collection or use of clickstream data will be anonymous and aggregated, and will not contain any personally identifiable information.

Consent to Processing
By providing any personal information to this Site, you fully understand and unambiguously consent to the collection and processing of such information in the United States.

Other Sites
The Site may contain links to other Web sites. Other Web sites may also reference or link to the Site. Plum is not responsible for the privacy practices or the content of such other Web sites.

Supplemental Information
We may supplement the information that you provide to us with information that is received from third parties.

Security
We take seriously the security for all personal and non-personal information associated with our visitors and customers. We attempt to provide for the secure transmission of your purchase information from your PC to our servers by utilizing encryption software. However, due to the open communication nature of the Internet, we can not guarantee that communications between you and Plum, and Plum and you, will be free from unauthorized access by third parties. Only those Plum employees, agents and contractors who need access to your information in order to perform their duties are allowed access. Any employee, agent or contractor who violates our privacy and/or security policies may be subject to disciplinary action, including possible termination and civil and/or criminal prosecution.

Choice/Opt-Out
If we ever send you information by e-mail concerning new Plum products or services, we will provide you with an e-mail address by which you may request no future notices.

Correct/Update
You may review for accuracy and update any personal information we have about you. To do so, send a request to info@plummagazine.com.
