SECURITY AND PRIVACY INFORMATION SECURE ORDERING
Your online credit card transactions are secure with
Kitchen and Home. We use Secure Socket Layering (SSL), the
industry-standard encryption technology that ensures safe Internet transmission of your personal information. When
the letters "http" in the URL change to "https," the "s" indicates you are in a secure area employing SSL; also, your
browser may give you a pop-up message that you're about to enter a secure area.
Making a credit card purchase is just as safe on our Web site as it is by
telephone.

Cookies and How We Use Them
A "cookie" is a small data file stored by your Web browser on your computer's hard drive. It allows us to recognize
your computer (but not specifically who is using it) upon entering our site by associating the identification numbers in
the cookie with other customer information you have provided us. That customer information is stored on our secured
database.
We use cookies to identify the pages you click on during your visit to our site and the name of the Web site you
visited immediately before clicking to
Kitchen and Home. We use this information to improve our site design, product
assortments, customer service, and special promotions.
Accepting cookies through your Web browser is your personal choice. You can still shop and purchase from
Kitchen and Home even if you set your browser to disable cookies.
Children's Privacy
The Children's Online Privacy Protection Act took effect on April 21, 2000. It imposes certain requirements on Web
sites directed at children under 13 that collect information on those children, and on Web sites that knowingly collect
information on children under 13.
We do not knowingly collect any personal information from children under the age of 13 on our Web site, and our
online sweepstakes are restricted to entrants who are at least 18 years old.
No one under the age of 15 should submit any personal information to this or any other Web site without the consent
of a parent or guardian.

If you are using a public computer, we strongly encourage you to LOG OUT at the conclusion of your session. Your

We may also share your data with other trusted partners and companies to market
their products and services.
