Privacy Policy
Thomas Online is committed to protecting the privacy of our customers. By using our site, you consent to our privacy policy.
Your privacy is very important to Thomas Online. With that in mind, we have established and implemented information handling practices that we believe are consistent with the highest standards and best practices of organizations doing business on the Internet. This privacy policy describes the practices that apply to our site, including, specifically, the information we collect about you, when and how we collect that information and what may happen to that information.
Thomas Online uses a secure credit card system supplied and hosted by Digital Payment Solutions (DPS) for processing credit cards. All online credit card payments are processed by DPS. Thomas Online does not have access to, or store your credit card number when you make an online purchase.
The other personal information you may submit when placing your order is treated as confidential. Your details are used solely for the purpose of fulfilling your orders. Please note that we may maintain some information about an individual sales transaction in order to service that transaction and for record keeping as required by our bank.
We employ the use of Cookies on our site. Cookies are small files that a site or its service provider transfers to your computer’s hard drive through your Web browser (if you allow) that enables the site’s or service provider’s systems to recognize your browser and capture and remember certain information. For instance, we use cookies to help us remember and process the items in your shopping cart.
You can choose to have your computer warn you each time a cookie is being sent, or you can choose to turn off all cookies. You do this through your browser (like Internet Explorer) settings. Each browser is a little different, so look at your browser Help menu to learn the correct way to modify your cookies. If you turn cookies off, you won’t have access to many features that make your browsing experience more efficient and some of our services will not function properly. However, you can still place orders over the telephone by contacting customer service.
We do not sell, trade, or otherwise transfer to outside parties your personally identifiable information except for our website hosting partners and other parties who assist us in operating our website, conducting our business, or servicing you, so long as those parties agree to keep this information confidential. We may also release your information when we believe release is appropriate to comply with the law, to enforce our site policies, or protect ours or others’ rights, property, or safety.
