Swishmail is committed to protecting your right to privacy when visiting our web site. We recognize that when you share your personal information with us, you expect us to treat that information in a serious and responsible manner. This privacy statement discloses what information we gather, how we use that information, and how you can correct or change that information.

Requesting your information

Occassionally, Swishmail will request personal information from our clients. Such information may include the client's name, address, email address, occupation, interests, etc. This information will enable Swishmail to determine which services you might be interested in. When you select the option of giving us personal information over the internet that we or our business partners may request, we will inform you of how we intend to use this information.

When we ask for personal information for any reason, we will provide a link to this policy statement to make our intentions clear.

Personal Information Privacy

Swishmail will take all the necessary steps to keep your personal information confidential. Those steps include limiting access to client information databases, communicating this policy statement to all Swishmail employees and establishing and enforcing penalties for violating this statement.

Swishmail will not sell, rent, or give away our clients' personal information to other companies for use in selling others' products or services. When we do contract with another company to market or advertise products or services for us, we will insist on binding agreements from those companies protecting our client information. We will vigorously enforce all privacy agreements we have with other companies.

We gather personal information from our clients so we can better develop our relationship with those clients. Occasionally, we seek client comments on our products and services. These comments allow us to determine which products and services our clients should be made aware of based on their specific needs.

We will communicate with clients via e-mail or other online delivery devices only if the client agrees to receive those communications. Clients, who believe they are receiving our communications in error or no longer desire to receive them, should inform us and we will remove those clients' names from our mailing lists. However, Swishmail reserves the right, in its discretion, to send you bulletins and other information about Swishmail services. Swishmail will be judicious in the use of e-mail and paper mail to communicate with clients. We will, at all times, put ourselves in the place of the recipients of our mail and treat our clients as we ourselves would like to be treated.

Swishmail has teamed with others to provide our clients with enhanced Internet services. In providing such services, our business partners also may request personal information from our clients. We prohibit these business partners from selling or giving away our client information and we require them to have a posted Privacy Policy, so that our clients may review it before providing personal information to our business partners.

Order Information Privacy and Credit Card Security

We currently use the Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) protocol to safeguard your information, including your credit card number, during online transactions. None of the people, who have made purchases through Swishmail's Web site using SSL, have reported to us fraudulent use of their credit card as a result of their online order. We believe SSL to be a very safe encryption method, but we are always looking for even more secure encryption methods to safeguard information sent online. Our server will run detection software to help ensure you are using a secure browser and your information is secure when you check out. If our browser determines you are not using a secure browser, a message will appear at checkout.

To protect your information once your transaction is complete, Swishmail stores your information on an off-line server stored securely behind our firewall. There is no external access to this information and its internal access is strictly monitored.

For your protection, never put your credit card number or other sensitive information in unencrypted e-mail. In the extremely unlikely event that we ever do suspect a client's credit card number has been intercepted, we will immediately notify the client.

Swishmail.com Safe Shopping Guarantee

As your trusted guide in today's online commerce, Swishmail helps ensure your protection by offering a safe shopping guarantee. Under the Fair Credit Billing Act, your credit card bank cannot hold you liable for more than $50 in unauthorized or fraudulent charges. Swishmail will cover the amount for which you are held liable up to the full $50 if the fraudulent transaction resulted through no fault of your own from purchases made at Swishmail.com using our secure server. Swishmail also requires that you have followed all rules and procedures of your credit card provider relating to fraudulent and authorized use.
