Additionally, this information helps us better understand individual shopping experiences and analyze purchasing habits.
The types of information we collect include customer names, billing and shipping addresses, phone and fax numbers, email addresses, and payment details (such as credit card numbers) required for order processing. Customers are also required to create an account using their email address as a username and a chosen password to facilitate future access to their account information.
