Bachelorette.com will not misuse your personal information.
- We will not sell your information to any mailing lists. Other companies can get 5 cents for each person's customer information. We don't think selling your name to a company that will send you unwanted e-mail or junk mail is worth a nickel.
- We will not mail you unwanted information. When you order from us you can control what information is sent to you. You can decide if you want an order confirmation, shipping confirmation, or customer survey. If you do not want any of these items we will still be pleased to have you as a customer and will work hard to process your order quickly and accurately. We feel that satisfying you, our customer, will bring repeat business.

When you place an order with Bachelorette.com (PriveCo Inc. is our corporate name) you provide us with five pieces of information. Here is a summary of how we use them.
- Your Billing Address - Your billing address is used to verify that the person placing the order matches the person who owns the credit card. This process is done through an "Address Verification System" which uses the numeric value of your street address and your zip code. These two numbers are entered into the system and verified against the address where you credit card bill is sent. For example: If Bill Johnson who lives at 18 Anyplace lane in Plainsville, VA 36281 placed an order, the system would verify the digits (18 and 36281) and tell us that the address verifies. The term billing address refers only to where your monthly credit card bill is sent. Bachelorette.com does not send anything to your billing address.
- Your Shipping Address - The shipping address is used only to ship your order.

- Your Phone Number - Is not used unless Express Mail is selected in which case the postal service requests that it be provided.
