Thank you for accessing the web site ("Site") of Small Feats Footwear ("SmallFeatsFootwear.com," that's us). We respect your privacy and want to protect your personal information. To learn more, please read this Privacy Policy.
This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use and (under certain conditions) disclose your personal information. This Privacy Policy also explains the steps we have taken to secure your personal information. Finally, this Privacy Policy explains your options regarding the collection, use and disclosure of your personal information. By visiting our Site, you accept the practices described in this Policy.
This privacy policy applies only to this Site. This privacy policy does not necessarily apply to our offline collection of your personal information. Please see below for details.
We are not responsible for the content or privacy practices on any non-SmallFeatsFootwear.com web site to which this Site links or that links to this Site.
INFORMATION COLLECTION AND USE
- Information Collection. We collect information from you in several different ways on this Site. One goal in collecting personal information from you is to provide an efficient, meaningful, and customized experience. For example, we can use your personal information to:
- help make this Site easier for you to use by not having to enter information more than once.
- help you quickly find information, products, and services.
- help us create content on this Site that is most relevant to you.
- alert you to new information, products, and services that we offer.
(a)
|
Registration and Ordering. Before using certain parts of this Site or ordering products, you must register online. During registration, you will be asked to provide to us certain personal information, including but not limited to your name, shipping address, phone number, and email address. These kinds of personal information are used to fulfill your orders and to communicate with you about your order and our site. If we encounter a problem when processing your order, we use the personal information to contact you.
|
(b)
|
Email Addresses. Several locations of the Site permit you to enter your email address for purposes including but not limited to: requesting us to notify you when we receive a new brand, new product style, or product size; or signing up for our email newsletter and special offers.
|
(c)
|
Cookies and Other Technology. Like many sites, this Site employs cookies to speed your navigation of the Site, and recognize you and your access privileges.
(i)
|
Cookies are small pieces of information that are stored as text files by your Internet browser on your computer's hard drive. Most Internet browsers are initially set to accept cookies. You can set your browser to refuse cookies from web sites or to remove cookies from your hard drive, but if you do, you will not be able to access or use some features of this Site. However, refusing cookies from the Site will not prevent you from browsing our inventory or ordering products.
|
(ii)
|
We may use third-party advertising companies to help us tailor site content to users or to serve ads on our behalf. These companies may employ cookies and web beacons to measure advertising effectiveness (such as which web pages are visited or what products are purchased and in what amount). Any information that these third parties collect via cookies and web beacons is not linked to any personal information collected by us.
|
|
(d)
|
Log Files. As is true of most web sites, the Site server automatically recognizes the Internet URL from which you access this Site. We may also log your Internet protocol ("IP") address, Internet service provider, and date/time stamp for system administration, order verification, internal marketing, and system troubleshooting purposes. (An IP address may indicate the location of your computer on the Internet.)
|
(e)
|
Age. We respect children's privacy. Other than first name, we do not knowingly or intentionally collect personal information from children. We use a child's first name (like all good children's shoe store) to better help us find the corrent fitting shoe.

Information Use and Disclosure.
(a)
|
Internal Use. We use your personal information to process your order and provide you with customer service. We may internally use your personal information to improve our Site's content and layout, to improve our outreach and marketing efforts (including marketing our services and products to you), and to determine general marketplace information about visitors to this Site.
|
(b)
|
Communications with You: We will use your personal information to communicate with you about our site and your orders. Also, we will send you a confirmation email when you register with us. We may send you a service-related announcement on the rare occasions when it is necessary (for example, if we must temporarily suspend our service for maintenance.) Also, you may submit your email address for reasons such as to register for a free shoe giveaway; to request us to notify you when we receive a new brand, new product style, or product size; or to sign up for our email newsletter and special offers. If you submit your email address, we use it to deliver the information to you. We always permit you to unsubscribe or opt out of future emails (see the opt out section, below, for more details). Because we have to communicate with you about orders that you choose to place, you cannot opt out of receiving emails related to your orders.
|
(c)
|
External Use. We want to provide you with excellent service and to offer you a great selection - we primarily sell merchandise, not information. We do not sell, rent, trade, license or otherwise disclose your specific personal information or financial information to anyone, except that:
(i)
|
We may be required to disclose such information in response to requests from law-enforcement officials conducting investigations; subpoenas; a court order; or if we are otherwise required to disclose such information by law. We also will release personal information where disclosure is necessary to protect our legal rights, enforce our Terms of Use or other agreements, or to protect ourselves or others. For example, we may share information to reduce the risk of fraud or if someone uses or attempts to use our Site for illegal reasons or to commit fraud.
|
(ii)
|
We will not sell (or trade or rent) personally identifiable information to other companies as part of our regular course of business. However, it's possible that we might acquire or merge with or be acquired by another company or that we might dispose of some or all of our assets. If that happens, your personal information may be disclosed to another company, but that disclosure will be subject to the Privacy Policy in effect.
|
(iii)
|
We may share non-personal information (such as the number of daily visitors to a particular web page, or the size of an order placed on a certain date) with third parties such as advertising partners. This information does not directly personally identify you or any user.
|
|
DATA SECURITY
This Site incorporates physical, electronic, and administrative procedures to safeguard the confidentiality of your personal information, including Secure Sockets Layer ("SSL"). We use SSL encryption to protect your personal information online, and we also take several steps to protect your personal information in our facilities. Access to your personal information is restricted. Only employees who need access to your personal information to perform a specific job are granted access to your personal information. Finally, we rely on third-party service providers for the physical security of some of our computer hardware. We believe that their security procedures are adequate. For example, when you visit our Site, you access servers that are kept in a secure physical environment, behind a locked cage and an electronic firewall.
While we use industry-standard precautions to safeguard your personal information, we cannot guarantee complete security. One-hundred percent complete security does not presently exist anywhere online or offline.
OPT OUT/CORRECTIONS
Upon your request, we will (a) correct or update your personal information; (b) stop sending emails to your email address; and/or (c) disable your account to prevent any future purchases through that account. You can make these requests at the customer information section of this Site
http://www.smallfeatsfootwear.com/account.php
, or by telephoning, or emailing your request to Small Feats Footwear at 1-814-234-7713, or support@smallfeatsfootwear.com.
Please do not email your credit-card number.
OFFLINE COLLECTION, USE & DISCLOSURE OF INFORMATION
This Privacy Policy applies only to online collection of personal information. We also collect information offline, where we also try to protect the privacy of your personal information. When we need to store information (such as order information), we will enter it securely into our database. (See the Data Security section above for more information). There are other ways we could learn of personal information offline (for example at our retail location or while delivering products), and this Policy does not discuss or try to predict all of those methods or uses. As we mentioned, we primarily sell merchandise, not information, and we will try to treat offline collection, uses, and disclosures consistently with our relevant online practices.
UPDATES TO THIS POLICY
If we change or update this Privacy Policy, we will post changes and updates on this Site so that you will always be aware of what information we collect, use and disclose. We encourage you to review this Privacy Policy from time to time so you will know if the Privacy Policy has been changed or updated. If you have any questions about the Privacy Policy, please contact us at 1-814-234-7713.
Effective April 1, 2006.
