Personal Information Privacy
The Great Fraser Fir Company will take all appropriate steps to keep your personal information
confidential. Those steps include limiting access to client information databases, communicating this
policy statement to all GFFC employees and establishing and enforcing penalties for violating this
statement.
The Great Fraser Fir Company will not sell, rent, or give away our clients' personal information to other
companies for them to use in selling others' products or services. When we do contract with another
company to market or advertise products or services for us, we will insist on binding agreements from
those companies protecting our client information. We will vigorously enforce all privacy agreements we
have with other companies.
We gather personal information from our clients so we can better develop our relationship with those
clients. Occasionally, we seek client comments on our products and services. These comments allow us
to determine which products and services our clients should be made aware of based on their specific
needs.
We will communicate with clients via e-mail or other online delivery devices only if the client agrees to
receive those communications. Clients, who believe they are receiving our communications in error or no
longer desire to receive them, should inform us and we will remove those clients' names from our mailing
lists. The Great Fraser Fir Company will be judicious in the use of e-mail and paper mail to communicate
with clients. We will, at all times, put ourselves in the place of the recipients of our mail and treat our
clients as we ourselves would like to be treated.
The Great Fraser Fir Company has teamed with others to provide our member with enhanced
services. In providing such services, our business partners also may request personal information from
our clients. We prohibit these business partners from selling or giving away our client information and
we require them to have a posted Privacy Policy, so that our clients may review it before providing
personal information to our business partners.
Order Information Privacy
SSL Certificates are used on more than 10,000 sites world wide.
More than 90% of Fortune 500 companies use SSL security to protect their sensitive information.
We currently use the Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) protocol to safeguard your information, including your
credit card number, during online transactions. None of the people, who have made purchases through
The Great Fraser Fir Company's Web site using SSL, have reported fraudulent use of their credit card as a
result of their online order. We believe SSL to be a very safe encryption method, but we are always
looking for even more secure encryption methods to safeguard information sent online. If you're not
comfortable sending your credit card information online, please email us to have a sales representative
call you and complete the order form.
For your protection, never put your credit card number or other sensitive information in unencrypted
e-mail or any other unencrypted form. In the extremely unlikely event that we ever do suspect a client's
credit card number has been intercepted, we will immediately notify the client.
We may use a "cookie" on our site to aid those using a proxy server. This "cookie"
is simply a way to keep the connection between your computer and our secure servers "alive" while you
are making your purchase. Our cookie tag gives each visitor's browser a random, unique number. The
cookie simply assigns this number and does not disclose any personal information about the person
using the browser.
