OUR COMMITMENT
Tilley Endurables is committed to protecting the privacy and security of your personal information. We do not sell or trade personal information about you with anyone.
YOUR INTERNET TRANSACTIONS
We use SSL (Secure Socket Layers), the industry standard in transferring information to process your orders. When you click on “checkout”, you will connect with our secure server. SSL sends your browser information that “encrypts” your order, changing all the information that you send back into a code that is extremely difficult to decipher.
E-mail is not a secure means to send information, as it is not encrypted. We encourage you to use our secure ordering process when shopping.
COOKIES
We use “browser cookies” and JavaScript on our website. A “cookie” is a very small amount of text stored by the browser in your computer’s hard drive or hand-held device. This text itself does nothing, but when you click from one page to another, our web server tells us you are the same user, although it cannot tell us your identity. This saves time and eliminates the chance that your shopping bag might get confused with someone else’s.
Is using a cookie going to give us personal information about you? No. Accepting a cookie does not give anyone access to your computer or hand-held device or to any personal information. It is simply a small file in which we keep information that identifies you as a unique shopper. The cookie will be deleted 25 minutes after non-use or upon browser shutdown.
