Aggregate Information is used in a collective manner. Tracking Internet Protocol (IP) addresses is one method of collecting Aggregate Information about your activities online and information volunteered by you.

The computers, which deliver the Web pages to you, automatically identify your computer by its IP address. When you request a page from our site, our servers log your IP address.

katiebrown.com does not share, sell or trade with third parties your Personal Information gathered online, such as your email address, Personal Information you provide as part of an online survey or any other details that identify you. We do not contribute to or participate in cooperative databases, which give other companies access to such Personal Information. For privacy purposes, all information relating to our customers is stored on a highly secure server, and all credit card information is stored in an encrypted format.
katiebrown.com may share Personal Information gathered online with consultants or for any internal business purpose, and may also divulge Personal Information if such information is required for katiebrown.com to comply with any valid legal process, such as a subpoena, search warrant, statute or court order, or if katiebrown.com believes that membership has been used to commit unlawful acts or acts that may endanger the health or safety of another user or of the general public. In addition, katiebrown.com receives personal usage and demographic information from its affiliates and from third parties and uses this information to improve our products and services.

Use of Cookies
A cookie is a small data file that Web sites, when you visit them, often store on your hard drive. A cookie may contain information (such as unique user ID), which is used to track the pages of the sites you've visited. katiebrown.com uses cookies to make your experience more enjoyable in a number of ways. katiebrown.com also uses cookies to measure activity on our site, which allows us to determine which areas and features of our site are most popular. This information allows us to make improvements and updates to enhance your katiebrown.com experience.
Security and SSL
Protecting your order information is a priority for us. We may use Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) technology to protect the security of your online order information. To check the security of your connection, look at the lower left-hand corner of your browser window after accessing the server. If you see an unbroken key or a closed lock (depending on your browser), then SSL is active and the server is secure. You can also double-check by looking at the URL line of your browser. When accessing a secure server, the first characters of the site address will change from "http" to "https." Some versions of browsers and some firewalls don't permit communication through secure servers. In that case, you won't be able to connect to the server and therefore won't be able to place an order through a secure connection.
E-mail and Electronic Newsletters
katiebrown.com and its affiliates may offer electronic newsletters and emails to those who have provided their email address. You will only receive a newsletter or email if you agree during registration or directly from our newsletter sign-up form to receive these items.
