Use and Disclosure of Information:

We use the information that we collect about you to maintain, improve, and administer our Website, operate our business, provide products and services that you request, administer your account, inform you about products and services that might be of interest to you, and personalize your online experience.

In order to carry out certain business functions, such as order fulfilment, e-mail delivery, or marketing, we sometimes hire other companies to perform services on our behalf. We may disclose Personal Information that we collect about you to these companies to enable them to perform these services, but they are required to safeguard the Personal Information and are not authorized to use it for any other purpose than completing their contractual requirements to Chews-4-Health. For example, as a part of the normal process of completing your purchase, Chews-4-Health may provide your Personal Information to a third party payment processor, such as Bibit B.V., depending on your chosen method of payment. Please be aware that, because of the limitations of the systems used by some financial institutions, the statement you receive from your credit card or financial institution may show the name of a third party payment processor, such as Bibit B.V., instead of or in addition to the Chews-4-Health name. In addition, we may share the Personal Information we collect with other companies with whom we have joint marketing arrangements.

We may also disclose information, including Personal Information, we collect about you in other circumstances as required or permitted by law.

In addition, it is possible that in the future another company may acquire Chews-4-Health or its assets. It is also possible that Chews-4-Health may partner with or purchase another company to continue to do business as a combined entity. In the event that this occurs, it is possible that our customer information, including your Personal Information, may be transferred to the new business entity as one of Chews-4-Healths assets.
