When you visit this site and engage in certain activities, SojaCandles.com may request certain personally identifying information about you.

If you already are a customer of SojaCandles.com, meaning that you have already setup an account, you may request access to your account and information related thereto. As part of the process of giving you access to your account, we may request information that identifies you as a customer, such as your password and/or login information. We recommend that you not divulge your password to anyone, since you are responsible for any activities undertaken through use of your password access, whether by you or by someone else.

When you, as a visitor, visit this Web Site you can surf the site anonymously and access important information without revealing your identity. However, if you are a customer seeking access to a restricted area, you will be required to identify yourself using pre-agreed login and/or password information.

Your customer information and the substance of your request may also be provided to trusted third parties in order to register or fulfill your order, or to confirm your right, if any, to technical support, services or other benefits that may be made available to you and your company. SojaCandles.com may monitor and aggregate visitor traffic pattern data, and may use and disclose such aggregate information to third parties to help resolve matters regarding your web site and for other business reasons agreed to by you in advance. This aggregated information does not personally identify you.

Once you have left our web site, you should check the applicable privacy policy of the third party web site to determine how they will handle any information they collect from you.
