  • E-mail Communications: To help us make e-mails more useful and interesting, we might receive a confirmation when you open e-mail from TUKshoes.com if your computer supports such capabilities.

Additionally, you can disable or delete similar data used by browser add-ons, such as Flash cookies, by changing the add-on's settings or visiting the Web site of its manufacturer. However, because cookies allow you to take advantage of some of TUKshoes.com's essential features, we recommend that you leave them turned on.

Does TUKshoes.com Share the Information It Receives?

Information about our customers is an important part of our business, and we are not in the business of selling it to others.
 

  • Third-Party Service Providers: We employ other companies and individuals to perform functions on our behalf. Examples include  delivering packages, sending postal mail and e-mail, removing repetitive information from customer lists, analyzing data, providing marketing assistance, providing search results and links (including paid listings and links), processing credit card payments, and providing customer service. They have access to personal information needed to perform their functions, but may not use it for other purposes.
  • Promotional Offers: Sometimes we send offers to selected groups of TUKshoes.com customers on behalf of other businesses. When we do this, we do not give that business your name and address. If you do not want to receive such offers, please unsubscribe by clicking the unsubscribe link at the bottom of any T.U.K. e-mail.
  • Business Transfers: As we continue to develop our business, we might sell or buy stores, subsidiaries, or business units. In such transactions, customer information generally is one of the transferred business assets but remains subject to the promises made in any pre-existing Privacy Policy (unless, of course, the customer consents otherwise). Also, in the unlikely event that TUK or substantially all of its assets are acquired, customer information will of course be one of the transferred assets.
  • Protection of TUKshoes.com and Others: We release account and other personal information when we believe release is appropriate to comply with the law; enforce or apply our Terms of Use and other agreements; or protect the rights, property, or safety of TUKshoes.com, our users, or others. This includes exchanging information with other companies and organizations for fraud protection and credit risk reduction. Obviously, however, this does not include selling, renting, sharing, or otherwise disclosing personally identifiable information from customers for commercial purposes in violation of the commitments set forth in this Privacy Policy.
  • With Your Consent: Other than as set out above, you will receive notice when information about you might go to third parties, and you will have an opportunity to choose not to share the information.

How Secure Is Information About Me?

  • We work to protect the security of your information during order transmission by using Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) software, which encrypts order information you transmit.
  • We reveal only the last four digits of your credit card numbers when confirming an order. Of course, we transmit the entire credit card number to the appropriate credit card company during order processing.
  • It is important for you to protect against unauthorized access to your password and to your computer. Be sure to sign off when finished using a shared computer.
  • These security measures do not guarantee that your information will not be accessed, disclosed, altered or destroyed by breach of firewalls or secure server software.  By using our website you acknowledge that you understand and agree to assume these risks.

Which Information Can I Access?

TUKshoes.com gives you access to a broad range of information about your account and your interactions with TUKshoes.com for the limited purpose of viewing and, in certain cases, updating that information. 
 

What Choices Do I Have?

  • As discussed above, you can always choose not to provide information, even though it might be needed to make a purchase.
  • You can add or update certain information on pages such as those referenced in the "Which Information Can I Access?" section above. When you update information, we usually keep a copy of the prior version for our records.
  • If you do not want to receive e-mail or other mail from us, please adjust your Email Preferences or unsubscribe by clicking the unsubscribe link at the bottom of any T.U.K. e-mail.
  • The Help portion of the toolbar on most browsers will tell you how to prevent your browser from accepting new cookies, how to have the browser notify you when you receive a new cookie, or how to disable cookies altogether. Additionally, you can disable or delete similar data used by browser add-ons, such as Flash cookies, by changing the add-on's settings or visiting the Web site of its manufacturer. However, because cookies allow you to take advantage of some of TUKshoes.com's essential features, we recommend that you leave them turned on. For instance, if you block or otherwise reject our cookies, you will not be able to complete a purchase in our store.

Are Children Allowed to Use TUKshoes.com?

If you have any concern about privacy at TUKshoes.com, please email compliance@TUKshoes.com with a thorough description, and we will try to resolve it.

Our business changes constantly, and our Privacy Policy and the Terms of Use will change also. We may e-mail periodic reminders of our notices and conditions, unless you have instructed us not to, but you should check our Web site frequently to see recent changes. Unless stated otherwise, our current Privacy Notice applies to all information that we have about you and your account. We stand behind the promises we make, however, and will never materially change our policies and practices to make them less protective of customer information collected in the past without the consent of affected customers.
