Privacy Notice
Chum-Stik knows that how personal information is gathered, used and shared is very important to you, and we appreciate the trust you put in us. We tell you just how we do those three things in our privacy policy. You accept this policy when you visit chum-stik.com.
What Personal Information Does chum-stik.com Gather?
The information we learn from customers helps us personalize and continuously improve your experience at chum-stik.com. Here are the types of information we gather.
Information You Give Us:
We receive and store any information you enter on our Web site or give us in any other way. We use the information that you provide for such purposes as responding to your requests, improving our products, product offerings and website, and communicating with you.
E-mail Communications:
To help us make e-mails more useful and interesting, we often receive a confirmation when you open e-mail from chum-stik.com if your computer supports such capabilities.
Does Chum-Stik Share the Information It Receives?
Chum-Stik is not in the business of selling its information to others. We share customer information only as described below.
Agents:
We employ other companies and individuals to perform functions on our behalf. Examples include processing credit card payments. They have access to personal information needed to perform their functions, but may not use it for other purposes.
Protection of chum-stik.com and Others:
We release account and other personal information when we believe release is appropriate to comply with the law; enforce or apply our Conditions of Use and other agreements; or protect the rights, property, or safety of Chum-Stik our users, or others. This includes exchanging information with other companies and organizations for fraud protection and credit risk reduction. Obviously, however, this does not include selling, renting, sharing, or otherwise disclosing personally identifiable information from customers for commercial purposes in violation of the commitments set forth in this Privacy Notice.
How Secure Is Information About Me?
We work to protect the security of your information during transmission by using Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) software, which encrypts information you input.
We reveal only the last five digits of your credit card numbers when confirming an order. Of course, we transmit the entire credit card number to the appropriate credit card company during order processing.
It is important for you to protect against unauthorized access to your password and to your computer. Be sure to sign off when finished using a shared computer.

Chum-Stik does not sell products for purchase by children. We sell children's products for purchase by adults. If you are under 18, you may use chum-stik.com only with the involvement of a parent or guardian.
Self-Identifying Information
You provide such information when you buy or communicate with customer service. For example, you provide information when you place an order through chum-stik.com; communicate with us by phone, e-mail, or otherwise. As a result of those actions, you might supply us with such information as your name, address, and phone numbers; credit card information; people to whom purchases have been shipped, including addresses and phone number; and product preferences.
