The Cakes Across America Commitment to Privacy
We respect the privacy of your information. We provide this explanation about our online information practices to demonstrate our commitment to protect your privacy.
We do not sell, rent or lease any personally-identifying information collected during your use of our Website without your permission, or unless required by law. We may from time to time share non-personally identifying information with a third party.
The Information We Collect
At the time you register on our site, make a purchase request, or agree to participate in a promotion, we collect and store your name, address, e-mail address, credit card numbers and other personally-identifying information. This information is required to provide goods and services or allow our retail partners and service providers to provide the goods and services that you request, and to let you know of additional goods and services about which you may be interested. We also use this information to customize your experience using our Website.
We may also ask you for personally-identifying information at other times, for example when you enter into a promotion, communicate with us or complete a survey. By opting-in to receive information regarding a promotion, you grant permission to share your name and e-mail address with the third party offering the promotion.
In addition, we automatically gather general statistical information about our Website and visitors, such as IP addresses, browsers, pages viewed, number of visitors, goods and services purchased, etc., but in doing so we do not reference you by individual name, e-mail address, home address, or telephone number. We use this data in the aggregate to determine how much our customers use parts of our site in order to improve our site. We may provide this statistical information to third parties, but when we do so we do not provide personally-identifying information without your permission.
Some features of our site may be available only through the use of a cookie. Besides being a tasty treat, a cookie is a small amount of data that is sent to your browser from a web server and stored on your computers hard drive. Generally, we use cookies to remind our systems who you are and enable us to access your account information so you do not have to re-enter it; gather statistical information about usage by registered or unregistered users, research visiting patterns, and help target advertisements based on user interests; assist our retail partners track visits and process orders; and track progress and participation in promotions. In some instances, retail partners and advertisers appearing at our site may use their own cookies. Preference and options configurations in your browser determine if and how a cookie will be accepted. You can change those configurations on your computer if you desire. By changing your preferences, you can accept all cookies, you can be notified when a cookie is set, or you can reject all cookies. If you do so and cookies are disabled, you may be required to re-enter your information more often and certain features of our site may be unavailable.
If you obtain goods or services provided by one of our retail partners or service providers, we may exchange with the vendor personally-identified information about you for purposes of your transaction.
The Way We Use Information
We use your personally-identifying information to improve our marketing and promotional efforts, to statistically analyze site usage, to improve our content and product offerings, and to customize our sites content, layout and services.
We may use your information to deliver information to you that, in some cases, is targeted to your interests, such as targeted banners, new services and promotions. You can opt out of receiving this information by so indicating in your registration/preferences file or e-mailing us directly at cakes@cakesacrossamerica.com. We may ask you to provide us voluntarily with additional information regarding your personal or business interests, experience or requests which we may use to customize our service for you.
We use your e-mail address, your mailing address, and phone number to contact you regarding your order, administrative notices, new product offerings, specials, newsletters, and communications relevant to your use of the site.
If you place a request for products or services, we use information to ship or deliver your order. If the products or services are from a retail partner, we may provide your relevant information to that retailer for purposes of the transaction. If you establish a credit account with us or our providers, we collect additional information, including billing information, credit card number and expiration date, and tracking information from checks or money orders.
We may also use or disclose information to resolve disputes, investigate problems, or enforce our Terms of Use. At times, we may review status or activity of multiple users to do so. We may disclose or access information whenever we believe in good faith that the law so requires or if we otherwise consider it necessary to do so to maintain service and improve our products and services.
We use your IP address to help diagnose problems with our server, to manage our Website, and to enhance our site based on the usage pattern data we receive.
Security
We employ reasonable and current security methods to prevent unauthorized access, maintain data accuracy, and ensure correct use of information.
Whenever you voluntarily disclose personal information online, for example on message boards, through e-mail or in chat areas, that information can be collected and used by others.
No data transmission over the Internet or any wireless network can be guaranteed to be perfectly secure. As a result, while we try to protect your personal information, we cannot ensure or guarantee the security of any information you transmit to us, and you do so at your own risk.

Third Party Practices
The Privacy Policy of an advertiser or promotional service appearing at our site may differ from ours. We encourage you to read that policy before responding to the offer.
