How We Use Cookies
“Cookies” are small files that reside on your computer, that contain a string of alphanumeric characters that uniquely identify your browser. Cookies simply enable our web site to recognize who you are in order to offer you a personalized greeting or determine your membership in our loyalty program. We also use cookies to store items in your shopping cart before checkout. You can set up your browser to accept all cookies, or notify you when a cookie is set. However, if you set your browser to disable all cookies, some features of our Website will not function properly.

How igourmet.com Shares Information about Customers
igourmet provides your shipping information to UPS, USPS and/or FedEx (for obvious reasons) and to suppliers that function as third-party drop shippers for us. The information that igourmet supplies to drop shippers only relates to the specific order that the shippers will fulfill. We send the information to the drop shippers by secure email, secure http or secure ftp. We securely transmit your credit card data to the appropriate credit card company during order processing. As web technology and the online operating environment are constantly evolving, we cannot accurately predict all future applications of the data that we store about your order history. If you strongly oppose any use of your contact information other than what we need to fulfill your order, please let us know by emailing us at cservice@igourmet.com.

In the event igourmet buys or sells a business unit, we may transfer customer information as business assets. That transferred information remains subject to this Privacy Policy.

We may be required to release your personal information to law enforcement, to comply with the law, or protect the rights, property, or safety of igourmet.com, our users, or others. This includes exchanging information with organizations that fight fraud and identity theft.

Security of Sensitive Information
We work to protect the security of your information during transmission by using Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) software, which encrypts information you input. We reveal only a fragment of your credit card number when we confirm an order. We protect the information that we store in our customer database using state-of-the-art security methods.

Regardless of all of igourmet’s precautions, no transmission of data over the Internet is ever completely secure. Third parties that we do not control may intercept or access transmissions or private communications unlawfully. While we strive to protect personal information, we cannot guarantee, ensure or warrant the security of any information you transmit to us.

Children and Privacy
We do not knowingly permit users to register for our Services if they are under 18 years old, or under 13 years old with the explicit consent of their parents. We therefore do not request personally identifiable information from anyone under the age of 18, or under age 13 without parental consent. If we become aware that a customer is under the age of 18 and has registered without prior verifiable parental consent, we will remove his or her personally identifiable registration information from our files. If you are the parent or guardian of a person under the age of 18 who has provided personally identifiable information to us without your approval, please inform us by contacting us at the e-mail address below and we will remove such information from our database.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, pursuant to 47 U.S.C. Section 230 (d), as amended, we hereby notify you that parental control protections are commercially available to assist you in limiting access to material that is harmful to minors. More information on the availability of such software can be found through publicly available sources. You may wish to contact your internet service provider for more information.
