We will e-mail you to confirm your order and keep you updated on your order status. If we have a question about your order, we may contact you by e-mail or by phone.

In addition, we use your information to recommend products and features based on your past purchases, to personalize our newsletters if you choose to subscribe, to maintain your account and to improve your shopping experience or to notify you of any updates to our Privacy Policy.

Who we share it with: We share customer information with other subsidiaries who also may use the information to, for example, recommend products and features based on your past purchases and to improve your shopping experience.

Third parties: We may share customer information with service providers to conduct business on behalf of Preferred Plush Inc. This includes, but is not limited to: Credit card authorization and processing companies, customer service providers and shippers. In addition, we may form business relationships with "select partners," reputable companies or organizations whose products or services may interest you. In these cases, we may share or cross-reference personally identifiable information, excluding e-mail addresses, to allow these companies or organizations to contact you about their products or services. We may also disclose aggregate, non-identifiable customer information (such as number of visits or average order amounts) to advertisers or other third parties.

Information about kids: The preferredplush.com web site is designed for adults who make purchases for children. Preferred Plush Inc. doesn't knowingly solicit or collect information from children who are 12 or younger.

When we e-mail our newsletter, it includes prominently displayed instructions that show you how to unsubscribe from the newsletter. If your child subscribes to the Preferred Plush newsletter without your knowledge, simply follow the instructions, and unsubscribe immediately. If you want more information about children's privacy online, you can consult the "Consumer Protection" page on the Federal Trade Commission site.

The Preferred Plush Newsletter: If you want to receive e-mail newsletters from preferredplush.com with updates on sales, promotions and new arrivals, you must subscribe. You can subscribe to the preferredplush.com newsletter using a link on home page, when you create an account, during the checkout process, when you enter a sweepstakes.

We offer specialty newsletters created for customers with interests in specific age groups, brands, categories and promotions. When we launch a new newsletter, we may e-mail it to you if you subscribe to the preferredplush.com newsletter and if your buying patterns indicate that the information in the newsletter might interest you.

Each newsletter prominently displays a link you can use to unsubscribe at any time. We also include the e-mail address you used when you signed up for the newsletter, so you know which address to enter when you unsubscribe.

Sweepstakes or special promotions: You may have noticed some of the sweepstakes or special promotions we feature at preferredplush.com. If you want to participate, you must enter your name and e-mail address. You can also enter the sweepstakes by regular mail. We use your e-mail address to contact you only if you win the sweepstakes or special promotion.

Contacting Preferredplush.com Customer Service: If you contact preferredplush.com customer service, we will use your name, e-mail address, phone number and order history to answer your question as quickly as possible. On occasion, we may contact you later to verify information or to check on the quality of your Customer Service contact with preferredplush.com. We won't add your e-mail address to any newsletter mailing list if you contact customer service.

Legal requests: We may release customer account or other information if we're advised that release is necessary to comply with the law, or to protect the rights, property and safety of Preferred Plush Inc., our customers or others. This may include the exchange of information with companies and organizations or law enforcement for loss prevention and credit risk reduction. In the event of a bankruptcy, insolvency, merger or acquisition, customer information, including personal information, may be transferred.

Protecting your password: We also attempt to limit unauthorized access to your account. If you forget your password, you can create a new one. You can do your part to protect your personal information by keeping your password a secret and making sure you log off completely if you share a computer.
