GraceSales occasionally enters into cooperative marketing arrangements with independent companies. Under these cooperative marketing arrangements, our site may display the name and/or brand(s) of the independent company. Personally identifiable information that you supply to us while you are on our site, whether or not our site displays a name or brand of another company, will be handled in accordance with this GraceSales Privacy Policy and will not be shared with the cooperative marketing company unless GraceSales otherwise notifies you.

We do not use or share the personally identifiable information provided to us online in ways unrelated to the ones described herein without providing you an opportunity to opt-out of such operations. GraceSales reserves the right to disclose account and personal information when we believe such disclosure is appropriate to comply with the law, to cooperate with an investigation of activities claimed to be unlawful, to enforce our terms of use, or to protect the rights or property of GraceSales or others. Secure Encryption We use Secure Socket Layer (SSL) technology, which is supported by the vast majority of modern Internet browsers. SSL works best when you are using the latest 128-bit encryption versions of either Microsoft Internet Explorer or Netscape Navigator.SSL technology represents the highest level of security available on the Internet. It automatically encrypts information traveling over the Internet, verifies the identity of the transacting servers through certificates and digital signatures, and confirms that the integrity of message content is maintained throughout transmission. Password Protection At GraceSales, your sensitive information is password protected, adding to the level of security offered by SSL technology. (See Secure Encryption for more information). When you establish an account at GraceSales, you choose a unique password for your account. You may change the password as often as you wish by going to My Account and selecting "Account Update". Order Confirmation GraceSales sends you an e-mail notice confirming acceptance of each order you place. If you receive a confirmation for an order you did not place, please contact us immediately.
