Gunter Gallery is committed to protecting our customers' personal information. All orders are transmitted in a secure, encrypted format. To be sure that your order is secure, simply check your Web browser while you are in the shopping cart section. Most browsers use some sort of symbol to alert you to the fact that you are on a secured Web site. For example, Netscape and Internet Explorer use icons - either a padlock or a key - in the bottom corner that appear when the site is secured.

We will store your shipping and billing information if you create an account with us, but this information will not be used by anyone but Gunter Gallery as described below in our privacy policy.

Under no circumstances do we sell or rent this information to other businesses, and we strictly protect and enforce the confidentiality of this information. We respect your privacy and seek to protect the trust you place in Gunter Gallery. Our Privacy Policy is explained in more detail below:

1. What information does Gunter Gallery collect from our online visitors?
For those individuals who visit our site, we collect and store IP ("Internet Protocol") addresses during the visit. No individualized information is collected, and the IP address is not traced to a particular individual. Similarly, we collect information, using that IP address, about the navigational or browsing activities of our visitors. Again, that information is not tied to any name or other personally identifying information but is used solely to provide generalized demographic data, such as what geographic areas our visitors are from and visitor browsing patterns. We cannot use that data to identify you. For those who make contact with Gunter Gallery, we collect and store your name, address and email address information.

2. Does Gunter Gallery use "cookies"?
"Cookies" are small pieces of information that are stored by your browser on your computer's harddrive. Most web browsers automatically accept cookies, but you can usually change your browser to prevent such acceptance. We do not retain any individualized information as a result of our use of cookies.

3. How do we use the individualized information that we collect?
We also retain your name, address and email address information in our visitor database. We use that information to respond to your inquiries and questions. We also may use that information, from time to time, to contact you. We try to limit those contacts to ones that might be of interest to you. If you would prefer not to be contacted, please notify us at the email address provided below:

4. How is the information Gunter Gallery collects stored and what security procedures do we have in place to protect the confidentiality of that information?
Currently, the customer information that we maintain is stored in our contact database. We limit access to that information to those with a business "need to know". As stated above, we do not under any circumstances sell or rent customer information to any outside company or organization.

In fact, we will release specific information about you only if we are compelled to do so to comply with valid legal processes such as a search warrant, subpoena or court order or in the unlikely situation where we, in good faith, believe such information is necessary to prevent harm to you or others.

5. Will Gunter Gallery call me?
We may on our contact pages require users to submit their phone number. By providing your phone number, you are consenting for Gunter Gallery and all authorized representatives to contact you even if your number is listed on the Federal Do-Not-Call List.

6. Will Gunter Gallery privacy policy change?
We may change or enhance our policy to improve our service to you. If we do change our policy, we will note those changes on our Web site. A message will be displayed on our home page for a period of time that a change has been made, and the change will be highlighted within the privacy policy. You are welcome to refer to this policy each time you are considering making a purchase.

If you have any questions or concerns about our Privacy Policy, please contact us for more information.
