At CottageArts.net, we also do everything in our power to protect user information off-line. All of our users' information remains confidential in our offices. Only a selected number of people who need the information to perform a specific job (e.g. customer service and shipping) are granted access to personally identifiable information. 

If you have any questions about the security at our Web site, you can send an e-mail to support@cottagearts.net.

Notification of Changes
If we decide to change our privacy policy, we will post those changes on our home page so our users are always aware of what information we collect, how we use it, and under what circumstances, if any, we disclose it. If at any point we decide to use personally identifiable information in a manner different from that stated at the time it was collected, we would notify users by way of an e-mail. Users will have a choice as to whether or not we use their information in this different manner. We will use information in accordance with the privacy policy under which the information was collected.
