Inland Hobby Tools

looks at your privacy ....

At Inland Hobby Tools, we know you're concerned about your privacy on the Internet, and that includes how you pay somebody on the World Wide Web.

Even though we're a business, we're also individuals who "surf the Net" for entertainment and share personal information with many sites in order to run our business.  So we're concerned about the same privacy issues.

"Cookies" are not a snack any more....
Very simply, a cookie is a piece of text that is deposited on a user's computer when you visit a site. Cookies allow a Web site to store information on a user's machine and later retrieve it.  Almost every major site does this in order to enhance your visit.  It's why when you registered with Yahoo (or Amazon or wherever) that they know who you are when you come back and can suggest additional products based on what you looked at the last time you were there.

When you browse our Website, we don't insert "cookies" onto the hard drive of your computer.  Frankly, we don't know how to do that (probably because we do our own Website instead of hiring somebody else), and we don't think it'd be very interesting anyway.

Are there "cookies" anywhere?
In our online "store," if you place an item in the shopping cart, leave the site and then return, you can click on the shopping cart and see the items you put into it earlier.  The reason is because a "cookie" was placed there by the software that assists in handling our online payment transactions on the secure section of our site so it can recognize you the next time you use the shopping cart.  If it didn't do this, you could put 20 items into your cart, leave the site or just get thrown offline (it happens to us, too), and then come back and find your cart is empty.  Not a very convenient situation.

Questions, anyone?
If you have any questions about any of these subjects, please email or call us, and we'll answer those questions or find the answers.  We appreciate your trust, and we work work to deserve that trust.
