Like most other e-commerce web sites, Davis Publications uses both session/browser-based cookies and disk-based cookies to customize your experience each time you visit our site. Cookies are small pieces of information that are stored temporarily in your Internet browser or hard drive that keep track of your stay at our site.

We collect information you enter on our web site. This information is normally provided when you place an order (establish an account) or contact us. Examples of the types of information supplied include your name, address, telephone number, credit card information, and email address.
Use of Personal Information
We use your information for such purposes as confirming an order, shipping product, billing, and marketing/promotional initiatives. When you submit your name and email address, we use this information to respond to your inquiry. Occasionally, we share our mailing list with other presses and organizations serving education professionals. These parties are authorized solely to use this information to perform services on behalf of Davis Publications. This information is maintained in a secure database located in the U.S. Access to the database is limited to authorized persons such as (by way of example only and not of limitation) hosting services, tech support, credit card processors, and database managers.
You should be aware that personal information, such as your name or email address, that you voluntarily disclose on bulletin boards or in web logs (“blogs”) could be collected and disclosed by other users with access to those sites. Davis Publications cannot take any responsibility for such collection or disclosure.

You will receive confirmation that your email address has been removed from our list. Please remember that removal requests are individual-email-specific. While we will do our best to implement your cancellation as soon as possible, you may continue to receive promotional emails for a brief time after submitting your request.
Purchase Security
Any credit card information received by Davis Publications is encrypted for security with Secure Socket Layer (SSL). SSL encrypts your order information to avoid the decoding of that information by anyone other than Davis Publications. Your credit card information is handled by established third-party banking and processing agents under contract to Davis Publications. Once an online order has been confirmed, your credit card is not reused.
Law Enforcement and Protection of Users
Davis Publications will release personal information to third parties and organizations when we believe it is appropriate to do so in compliance with the law. This includes cooperating with law enforcement investigations, complying with court orders or subpoenas, protecting the legal rights of Davis Publications and our clients, protecting the safety of a person or persons, and protecting against fraud and/or credit risk reduction.
