What Personal Information About Customers Does Believer.com Gather?
The information we learn from customers helps us personalize and continually improve your shopping experience at Believer.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.

* 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 Believer.com.

* E-mail Communications: To help us make e-mails more useful and interesting, we often receive a confirmation when you open e-mail from Believer.com if your computer supports such capabilities. We also compare our customer lists in an effort to avoid sending unnecessary messages to our customers. If you do not want to receive e-mail or other mail from us, please adjust your Customer Communication Preferences.
 
* Information from Other Sources: We might receive information about you from other sources and add it to our account information.

What About Cookies?
* Cookies are alphanumeric identifiers that we transfer to your computer's hard drive through your Web browser to enable our systems to recognize your browser and to provide features such as 1-Click purchasing, New for You, personalized Believer Honor System greetings, and storage of items in your Shopping Cart between visits.

* 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. Additionally, you can disable or delete similar data used by browser add-ons, such as Flash cookies, by changing the add-on's settings or visiting the Website of its manufacturer. However, because cookies allow you to take advantage of some of Believer.com's essential features, we recommend that you leave them turned on. For instance, if you block or otherwise reject our cookies, you will not be able to add items to your Shopping Cart, proceed to Checkout, or use any Believer.com products and services that require you to Sign in.

Does Believer.com Share the Information It Receives?
NO we do not share any information about you with anyone else and use the most sophisticated systems to protect your information.  We only use your information to better serve you the believers.

How Secure Is Information About Me?
We use an SSL Certificate to protect your data, a SSL certificate is a digital certificate that authenticates the identity of a Web site and encrypts information sent to the server using Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) technology. Encryption is the process of scrambling data into an undecipherable format that can only be returned to a readable format with the proper decryption key.

SSL stands for Secure Sockets Layer. SSL is the de facto standard for creating a secure, encrypted link between a Web server and a browser, which ensures safe passage of sensitive information, such as credit card numbers. E-commerce Web sites, banks, etc. use SSL as a means to protect online transactions with their customers. Once a secure connection is established, SSL encrypts information sent from your browser to the Web server.  We use the same SSL certificates as UPS, NEXTEL, TOYOTA, ZEROX, GMAC, NASCAR and other industry leaders.

Which Information Can I Access?
Believer.com gives you access to a broad range of information about your account and your interactions with Believer.com for the limited purpose of viewing and, in certain cases, updating that information.

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 such Believer.com features as your Profile, Customer Reviews.
* You can add or update certain information, when you update information, we usually keep a copy of the prior version for our records.
* If you do not want to receive e-mail or other mail from us, please adjust your preferences.
* 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. Additionally, you can disable or delete similar data used by browser add-ons, such as Flash cookies, by changing the add-on's settings or visiting the Website of its manufacturer. However, because cookies allow you to take advantage of some of Believer.com's essential features, we recommend that you leave them turned on. For instance, if you block or otherwise reject our cookies, you will not be able to add items to your Shopping Cart, proceed to Checkout, or use any Believer.com products and services that require you to Sign in.
