What Information about Me is Collected and Stored?
When you visit our Web Site, make an on-site purchase, or place an order online
or by phone with our Customer Care Department, we collect and store your personal
information about you. For example, when you open an account or place an order,
we collect and store some or all of the following information that you provide:
name, billing address, shipping address, email address, telephone number, credit
card number and expiration date, debit card number, bank account number, and payment
history. This information is used to provide the products and services that you
have ordered or requested, to process and ship orders, to send order and shipping
confirmations and to provide customer service. This information also may be used
to contact you about sales, special offers, surveys and new features of the Web
Site, unless you have opted not to receive promotional communications in connection
with this Web Site. You always have the choice not to receive marketing information
mailings or calls; you just need to let us know.
We collect and store certain other information automatically whenever you interact
with this Web Site. For example, Peek... Aren’t You Curious collects your
IP address, browser information and reference site domain name every time you visit
this Web Site. We also collect information regarding customer traffic patterns and
site usage. This information is used to analyze and improve this Web Site and to
provide our customers with a fulfilling shopping experience.
Also, like many Web Sites, we use cookies, which are files stored on your computer's
hard drive by your browser. A cookie may contain information, such as a unique user
ID that Web sites use to track the pages of the sites you've visited. We use cookies
but do not store personally identifiable information in the cookie. Cookies help
us to identify account holders and to optimize their shopping experience. Cookies
also allow us to hold selections in a shopping cart when a user leaves this Web
Site without checking out. Cookies are not used on this Web Site to store your account
information; this information is stored securely on this Web Site's server. When
you log in at this Web Site with your username and password, we will assign you
a secure session id. The server then passes your information to you through this
secure session id. Also, we will use cookies to monitor and maintain information
about your use of this Web Site. Cookies are also used to track the identity of
the Web Site you visited immediately prior to visiting this Web Site; otherwise,
we do not track information about your use of other Web Sites. Most browsers accept
cookies automatically but allow you to disable them. You can refuse cookies by turning
them off in your browser. We recommend that you leave cookies turned on so that
we can offer you a better shopping experience on this Web Site. If you turn off
cookies, though, we will not be able to track your order to enable you to purchase
from this Web Site. Nor will we be able to recognize you as a registered user, which
allows you to access your account information.
We also may collect and store information about you that we receive from other publicly
available sources, to enable us to update and correct the information contained
in our database and to provide product recommendations and special offers that we
think will interest you. We use the combined information to enhance and personalize
your shopping experience with us, and to communicate with you in accordance with
this Privacy Policy.

Is Information Collected From Children?
We are concerned about the safety of children when they use the Internet or the
Web Site. We do not sell or ship any items ordered through this Web Site directly
to anyone who we know to be under the age of 18, nor do we collect any personal
information from anyone who we know to be under the age of 18. If you are under
the age of 18, you should use this Web Site only with the involvement of a parent
or guardian and should not submit any personal information to us.

With Whom Do You Share Information?
We do not share with others, or sell or rent to others, any personal information
that you provide to us through this Web Site or through our Customer Care Department,
except with your consent or as described in this Privacy Policy.
We engage third parties to perform services in connection with the operation of
our business. Examples of these services include payment processing and authorization,
fraud protection and credit risk reduction, product customization, order fulfillment
and shipping, Web Site evaluation, data analysis and, where applicable, data cleansing.
We provide personal information to these third parties, but we authorize them to
use this information only in connection with the services they perform. They have
privacy policies that are consistent with our own and they are not authorized to
use your personal information for their own marketing purposes.
We may release personal information if we believe in good faith that: i) the law
or legal process requires it; ii) we have received a valid administrative request
from a law enforcement agency; or iii) such release is necessary to protect the
rights, property or safety of Auspient and/or Peek... Aren’t You Curious,
or any of our respective affiliates, business partners, customers or others.
We may share non-personal information with our marketing partners, advertisers and
others from time to time. Examples of such non-personal information include the
number of users who visited this Web Site during a specific time period or purchased
a specific product through this Web Site. This information generally is shared in
an aggregated form.
As with any business, it is possible that as our business develops, we might sell
or buy online stores or other assets. In such transactions, information about customers
often is among the transferred assets. Accordingly, in the unlikely event that Auspient
or Peek... Aren’t You Curious are acquired by a third party such information
may be one of the transferred assets (unless the information was collected under
a previous Privacy Policy that did not permit such disclosure). Under such circumstances,
Auspient or Peek... Aren’t You Curious, as the case may be, will to the extent
commercially reasonable require the acquiring party to follow the practices described
in this Privacy Policy.

address and password. You must provide an appropriate email address and password
in order to access account information. In order to help protect your personal information
further, you should be careful about providing your password to others. If you wish
