About The Use of Cookies
Cookies
Cookies are small pieces of information stored
on your computer when you view our website
and/or advertisements. A cookie lets us
recognize you, keep track of your shopping cart
and provide a more meaningful and personalized
shopping experience when you visit our site
again.
Changing Your Cookie Setting
Most web browsers are set to accept cookies
automatically, but you can change this setting.
See your browser's "help topics" to
learn how to change the setting. If you decide
not to accept cookies, you may not be able to
shop with us on-line and access all your account
information on our website.
Sharing of Personal Information
We share demographic information with our
partners and advertisers only on an anonymous
and aggregate basis. This is not linked to any
personal information that can identify any
individual person.
Requesting Information from Potential and
Registered Customers

non-registered users) an order form for
potential customers to request information about
our products and services.
You must be 18 years old or older to register
as a customer of NYCPet.com.
If you have any questions please contact George DiGuido at (718) 768-3954 or email nycpet.web@gmail.com
Limits to Your Privacy
Our Site may contain links to other Web sites.
NYCPet.com wants you to be aware that when you
click on links and/or ad banners that take you
to third-party Web sites, you will be subject to
the third parties' privacy policies, not ours.
While we support the protection of privacy on
the Internet, we are not responsible for the
actions and privacy policies of third parties
and other Web sites. We encourage you to read
the posted privacy statement and user terms and
conditions whenever interacting with, and prior
to providing any personal information to, any
other Web site. This Privacy Policy applies
solely to information collected by the Company
on this Site.
Your Security
NYCPet.com takes precautions to protect your
Personal Information.
When our registration/order form asks users to
enter sensitive information (such as credit card
number), that information is encrypted and is
protected with encryption software.
Our Site encrypts your credit card number prior
to transmission over the Internet using secure
socket layer (SSL) encryption technology. This
technology works best when the Site is viewed
using Microsoft's Internet Explorer or Netscape
Navigator. While on a secure page, such as our
order form, the lock icon on the bottom of Web
browsers such as Netscape Navigator and
Microsoft Internet Explorer becomes locked, as
opposed to unlocked, or open, when you are just
"surfing."
While we make reasonable efforts to safeguard
your Personal Information once we receive it, no
transmission of data over the Internet or any
other public network can be guaranteed to be
100% secure. As a result, we cannot ensure or
warrant the security of any information you
transmit to us or information we transmit to you
from our online products or services, and you do
so at your own risk.
This policy does not apply to the practices of
companies that NYCPet.com does not own or
control, or to people that NYCPet.com does not
employ or manage.
We may transfer information about you if
NYCPet.com is acquired by or merged with another
company. In this event, NYCPet.com will notify
you before information about you is transferred
and becomes subject to a different privacy
policy.
Lost or Stolen Information
You must promptly notify us if your credit card,
user name, or password is lost, stolen, or used
without permission. In such an event, we will
note that you have canceled your credit card
number, user name, or password in our system and
will update our records accordingly.
How to limit the use of your information
Our users are given the opportunity to
"unsubscribe" of having their
information used for purposes not directly
related to placement, processing, and delivery
of a product order at the point where we ask for
the information. If you prefer to
"unsubscribe" and not have us send you
material we think may be of interest to you,
such as product information, product samples,
and promotional mailings/e-mails from us and
sites and companies we own, then you can notify
us by e-mail.
Your instructions to limit the use of your
information will be procesed as soon as
reasonably practicable. In addition, you may
"unsubscribe" by accessing and
updating your information in the "My
Account" area on our Site.
Corrections
If any of your Personal Information changes
(such as your zip code), or if you no longer
desire our service, we will correct, update, or
remove that personal data provided to us. This
can be done by sending an e-mail with your new
information to nycpet.web@gmail.com.
In addition, you may access and update your
information in the "Your Account" area
on our Site.
Confidentiality and Security
We at NYCPet.com will limit access to personal
information about you to employees who we
believe reasonably need to come into contact
with that information to provide products or
services to you or in order to do their jobs,
such as our order takers, order fillers and
delivery drivers.

safeguards to protect personal information about
you.
Your NYCPet.com Account Information is
password-protected.

or legal processes, or to establish or exercise
our legal rights or defend against legal claims.
