PRIVACY POLICY
China Lane
maintains high standards for the protection of privacy over the Internet. The
following privacy statement explains how China Lane protects the privacy of
information transmitted over the Internet from its website visitors.
Generally,
China Lane only obtains specific and individualized data about its website
visitors when such information is supplied voluntarily, i.e., when website
visitors send email to or purchase services from China Lane. China Lane then
uses the information for the purpose of fulfilling the visitors' requests.
However, China Lane gathers some generic information automatically, solely to
help China Lane determine the success and usefulness of its websites. This
generic information, which does not reveal the identity of the visitor,
includes: what webpage the visitor visited, how much time visitors spend on
various pages of the site, visitors' domain name types (.com, .org, etc.), and
the originating webpage of the visitor. China Lanes uses this information to
determine customer service needs. In the future, China Lane may increase its
technical abilities for gathering data about visitors in order to enhance the
services offered to visitors and customers. This privacy policy will be
periodically updated to reflect any such changes to China Lane's practices.
China Lane's
website may employ "cookies". Cookies are small segments of text that are
transmitted to a visitor's web browser and which store information on the
visitor's hard drive. This information is later transmitted back to the server
that originally sent it to the visitor upon a later visit to that site. Cookies
allow servers to recall previous transactions to avoid repetition in data
gathering. A visitor can configure its equipment hardware, usually with its
browser to make notification when they receive a cookie. The visitor can refuse
it.
China Lane
will not sell or reveal information obtained about its visitors to anyone
outside of China Lane unless authorized by the visitor, it is legally required,
or such disclosure is required to protect the safety of employees, visitors,
customers, or property. China Lane does not send "junk" email, also known as
"spam". In certain instances, when China Lane wishes to contact customers via
email, respond to messages, confirm purchases, or transmit information requested
by a visitor, China Lane will typically use email. Any time a customer or
visitor receives email it does not want from China Lane, the customer can
request that China Lane not send further email.
China Lane
has security measures in place for protecting data conveyed during a visitor's
purchase with China Lane. China Lane employees, partners and subcontractors are
required to protect the privacy of such data. China Lane wants its visitors and
customers to feel that their privacy will be protected when the visitor accesses
their account or purchases services from China Lane online. China Lane denies
any responsibility for the privacy protections or content offered by other sites
to which China Lane's website may contain links.
Because
China Lane desires accuracy in the information it obtains and uses about its
visitors and customers, China Lane will attempt to verify its data and will ask
its customers to notify it of any inaccuracies or mistakes of which they may
become aware through their online account data and monthly bills.
PAYMENT
SECURITY STATEMENT
China Lane believes in providing a safe and secure shopping experience for all
of our customers. We provide stringent and effective security measures on our

It is our
policy to never send private information, such as your credit card number, via
email. In fact, this is a practice we recommend you adopt in all of your
Internet activities.
We designed China Lane to accept orders only from Web browsers that permit communication through Secure Socket Layer (SSL) technology; for example, versions 3.02 or higher of Internet Explorer. This means you'll be unable to inadvertently place an order through an unsecured connection.
