What Personal Information About Customers Does Vavolo.com Gather?

The information we learn from customers helps us personalize and continually improve your shopping experience at Vavolo.com. Here are the types of information we gather.

• Information You Gave Us: We receive and store any information you enter on our Web site or give us in any other way. You can choose not to provide certain information, but then you might not be able to take advantage of many of our features. We use the information that you provide for such purposes as responding to your requests, customizing future shopping for you, improving our stores, and communicating with you.

For example, like many Web sites, we use “cookies,” and we obtain certain types of information when your Web browser accesses Vavolo.com.

• E-mail Communications: To help us make e-mails more useful and interesting, we often receive a confirmation when you open e-mail from Vavolo.com if your computer supports such capabilities. We also compare our customer list to lists received from other companies, in an effort to avoid sending unnecessary messages to our customers. If you do not want to receive e-mail or other mail from us, please adjust your Customer Communication Preferences.
