How do you use the information

We use return email addresses to answer the

are NOT used for any other purpose and are
NOT shared with
outside parties.
We use non-identifying and aggregate information to better design our

individuals
visited a
certain area on our website, but we do not capture anything that
could be
used to identify those individuals.
What is your commitment to
data security?
To prevent unauthorized

correct use of information, we have put in place physical, electronic, and
managerial procedures to safeguard
and secure the information we collect

ever reported fraudulent use of a creditcardfor purchases. Shopping at Building Characters is safe and guaranteed.
How do we protect you? Secure server software encrypts all of your
personal information including credit card
number,
name, and address,
so
that it cannot be read as the information travels over the
Internet.
The
encryption process takes the
characters you enter and converts them into
bits of code that are securely transmitted over the
Internet.
