4. Opt-in/out & Update
By using our web
site, our users agree to the uses of information described in this
statement, and are "opting-in" to receive communications as herein
described. Our users always have a choice. They are given the
opportunity to 'opt-out' of having their information used for purposes
not directly related to our site. Users who no longer wish to receive
our promotional communications may opt-out of receiving these
communications by following the opt-out instructions contained in the

5. Security
This website takes
every precaution to protect our users' information. When users submit
sensitive information via the website, your information is protected
both online and off-line.
When our registration/order form asks users to enter sensitive
information (such as credit card number), that information is encrypted
and is protected with the best encryption software in the industry.
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 un-locked, or open, when you are
just 'surfing'. While we use encryption to protect sensitive information
online, we also do everything in our power to protect user-information
off-line. All of our users' information, not just the sensitive
information mentioned above, is restricted in our offices.
If you have any questions about the security at our website, you can
send an email to: denise@ciaotimecatering.com
6. Do we use cookies
Yes, like almost
all large e-commerce Web sites, ciaotimecatering.com uses
'cookies'. Cookies are bits of information that are stored on your
computer by your Web browser. Although our cookies don't store any of
your private information, they do allow us to do things like keep items
in your shopping cart between visits or during the same visit. Whether
you want your Web browser to accept cookies or not is up to you. If you
haven't changed your computer's settings, most likely your browser
already accepts cookies.
7. Privacy Protections for Children
Protecting the
online privacy of the very young is especially important. For that
reason, ciaotimecatering.com , Inc. voluntarily complies
with the Children's Online Privacy Protection Act of 1998 and the US

(16 C.F.R. Part 312). We neither collect nor maintain information at our
site from those actually known to be under the age of 13, nor is any
part of our sites directed to children under the age of 13.
8. Notification of Changes
We reserve the
right to make changes to this policy at our sole discretion. If we
change our privacy policy, we will post the new, updated privacy
statement on our web site, and other places we deem appropriate so our
users are always aware of what information we collect, how we use it,
and under what circumstances, if any, we disclose it. We may, at our
option, send an e-mail notification to our users, advising them of
changes to this policy, or changes in our terms and conditions.
