We have created this Privacy Policy to demonstrate our firm commitment to privacy and security. This Privacy Policy describes how DOGA Gifts collects information from all end users of DOGA Gifts’ internet services (the “Services”),those who access some of our Services but do not make a purchase (“Visitors”) as well as those who make a purchase (“Customers”); what we do with the information we collect, and the choices Visitors and Customers have concerning the collection and use of such information.

Introduction
DOGA Gifts collects information in different ways from Visitors and customers who access the various parts of our Services. We use this information primarily to provide a customized experience as you use our Services and, generally, do not share this information with third parties. However, we may disclose personal information collected if we have received your permission beforehand or in very special circumstances, such as when we believe that such disclosure is required by law or other special cases described below.
Data Security
The membership, bookstore and donations information you provide – including credit card information – is secured using Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) encryption technology. We use this SSL technology to prevent such information from being intercepted and read as it is transmitted over the Internet. The encrypted data goes to a secure site where your information is stored on restricted-access computers located at restricted-access sites. While we make every effort to ensure the integrity and security of our network and systems, we cannot guarantee that our security measures will prevent third-party “hackers” from illegally obtaining this information.
Responses to Email Inquiries
When Visitors or Customers send email inquiries to DOGA Gifts, the return email address is used to answer the email inquiry we receive. DOGA Gifts does not share the return email address with any third party.
