Miller
Designs believes that with the growth of E-Commerce and online activity,
the information collected from web store customers should be kept confidential.
We will make reasonable efforts to ensure that information furnished by
our customers about themselves will be safeguarded and not be made available
to third parties.
Online
privacy concerns focus on the protection of information which identifies
the customer that an individual reasonably expects to be kept private.
Information which identifies that customer is information which can be
associated with a specific individual or entity, including, for example,
a customer's name, address, or telephone number, E-mail address, and information
about online activities that are directly linked to them.
It
is often a necessity for companies, governments, or other organizations
to collect customer identifiable information in order to conduct regular
business and offer services to customers. For example, an E-Commerce store
service may collect information which identifies the customer, such as
name, address, telephone number, and a variety of other information in
the course of billing and providing delivery of products ordered by a customer.

Many
activities on the Internet follow very familiar methods as physical stores.
Similarly, business web sites may ask visitors to supply information about
themselves, particularly when information, services or merchandise are
requested, but often simply to be able to better target the company's services
to the customer's interests and requirements.

Children
On The Internet: Miller Designs supports
all legislation regarding the protection of children from supplying information
about themselves that may be detrimental to their well-being. Also,
we shall make reasonable efforts to ensure that young teens and minors,
who do not have permission to use their parent's / guardian's credit information,
do not offer us that information. At this time, we can only inform young
teens and minors that they need such permission to offer us that sort of
information. To that extent, we do require all potential customers
to indicate that they are at least 18 years of age or older. We encourage
parents and guardians to obtain software, make use of logon passwords,
and to safeguard their credit information, from their children and minors
in their custody.
Accordingly,
Miller Designs does not target children or teenagers (younger than eighteen
years of age) for collection of information online. Miller Designs does
not solicit or collect information which identifies that customer targeted
at children and teenagers under eighteen and does not allow anyone else
to do so on an Miller Designs Web Site. In addition, the editorial content
of Miller Designs Web Site is designed so that children will not knowingly
promote or link to any third party web site that collects customer identifiable
information unless that web site publishes a privacy policy that is easily
accessible.
