You have our pledge. Pathfinders Birkenstock does not rent, sell, lend, or otherwise distribute your personal information to anyone for any reason. This includes your contact and credit card information, as well as specific ordering information.
You will notice that when you go to the Pathfinders Birkenstock order placement page the URL changes from http://... to https://... The "s" tells you that all personal data collected by Pathfinders is being handled by a secure server. You can also tell whether you're connected to a secure server by finding the closed padlock icon in the status bar of the latest versions of Netscape and Internet Explorer browsers. All data is transmitted via Secure Socket Layer (SSL) technology, and is then encrypted within our databases. This means your credit card number and other sensitive information is transferred through the Internet in an unreadable form, protecting your data from appropriation and misuse by other Internet users.
Within our organization, your personal data is accessible to a limited number of employees with special access rights. Although we may, from time to time, compile general demographic information based on your order, this information is shared within our organization only and has no identifiable personal data associated with it.
We may offer you the opportunity to opt into specific services, such as a mailing list, but Pathfinders Birkenstock does not use direct email as a marketing tool.
