What about your e-mail address? - Your e-mail addresses are not captured unless you enter it voluntarily (like in a contest or directory listing). In cases I have accumulated these addresses- like during a contest- these addresses are only for my use and are not sold or distributed in any way. Comments made in e-mail or on guest forms may be published for promotional purposes- but your privacy will still be maintained!

Why are e-mail addresses and phone numbers requested during ordering? - Quite simply, so we can provide the best service possible. Automatic e-mails are generated confirming receipt of your order and also advising when we receive shipping confirmation. Not providing valid e-mail addresses does not allow you to receive these notifications. Phone numbers are requested in the unlikely situation that e-mail contact is not possible or simply inadequate. Bottom line: we only ask for it so we can serve you better!
