PROTECTING PRIVACY IS IMPORTANT TO US
Our policy is to respect the privacy of users who visit the Site. To ensure this, the following policy statement explains how the Site and DOGGY PADDLE collect information from you, as well as how it is used. We use the information that we may collect about you for various purposes, including creating a more personalized online experience.

This voluntarily provided information may include, among other things, URL tracking information, user’s browser, user’s IP address, files viewed by the user and user’s path through the Site, date, time and frequency of accessing site and length of time spent reviewing certain features.
HOW COLLECTED INFORMATION IS USED
We use the information we may collect on our Site to respond to your requests for information or questions, to improve our site, to statistically analyze usage of our Site, to improve content and offerings on our Site, and, in general, to improve and evaluate our Site for our users.

PURCHASE OF PRODUCTS
You may buy and pay for products on the Site. If you make a payment, we need to gather information relating to the sale, including what you are buying, how you are paying, and if relevant where you would like the products shipped. However, we will use the transactional information only to complete a transaction, to provide you with an order history, and to facilitate future orders. We may also use information about the transaction for aggregate reporting, in which we summarize the data in a report that does not contain personally identifiable information.
SECURITY
DOGGY PADDLE takes appropriate and commercially reasonable steps to ensure data privacy and security through various hardware and software methodologies. However, DOGGY PADDLE cannot guarantee the security of any information that is disclosed online—no system is fault proof.
If the Site’s security is breached, DOGGY PADDLE may attempt to notify you electronically. By using the Site and providing personal information to us, you agree that we can notify you electronically. DOGGY PADDLE may post a notice on the Site if a security breach occurs. Your account on the Site is password protected so that only you may use it.
