A+ FRR Privacy Policy

A+ Flint River Ranch knows that you care about how information you provide on the Internet is used and shared. We appreciate your trust and want you to feel confident in our services and security as it relates to your personal information.

At A+ FRR, we will never sell your personal information nor share it with any other company or organization unless absolutely necessary in order to complete your transaction and order. We collect customer information only for processing ordering, improving our site services and product offerings, and for your own convenience (i.e. storing products in a shopping cart for you).

What Personal Information About Customers Does A+ FRR Gather?

Your input helps us to create new products and service offerings with the customer in mind. The information you choose to submit helps us personalize and continually improve your shopping experience at A+ Flint River Ranch. Any data we request that is not required will be specified as voluntary or optional. The following are the types of information we may request from our customers:

• Information You Provide Us: We receive and store any information you enter on our website or provide in any other way. When ordering or registering on our site, as appropriate, you may be asked to enter your: name, e-mail address, mailing address, phone number or credit card information. You may, however, visit our site anonymously.
  
  Customers can choose not to provide certain information, but this may prevent them from taking advantage of many of our helpful features. We use the information you provide for such purposes as responding to your requests, fulfilling orders, customizing future shopping products and services for you, improving our store features, and communicating with you as necessary.
  
  Additionally, sharing your personal information makes it easy to shop again at A+ FRR. When you return to our site, all you need is your user name and password.
• Automatic Information: We receive and store certain types of information whenever you interact with our website. For example, like many Web sites, we sometimes use "cookies" to help facilitate and improve your shopping experience when your web browser accesses our website (again, storing products in your shopping cart is the primary example of this).
• E-mail Communications: To help us make e-mails more productive to improve service and your shopping experience, we sometimes send our customers newsletters about our services and products, notifications of changes to our policies and order confirmations.

What About Cookies?

Cookies are alphanumeric identifier text files that we transfer to your computer's hard drive through your web browser to enable our systems to recognize your browser and to provide features such as storage of items in your Shopping Cart between visits.

Does A+ Flint River Ranch Share the Information It Receives?

We respect your privacy and appreciate your business. At no time do we ever provide your account contact or payment information to any third party vendor, associate or service provider unless absolutely necessary in order to complete your transaction and order.

How Secure Is the Information I Share?

We strive to protect the security of your information during transmission by using password-protected directories and databases to safeguard your information, 256-bit Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) technology to ensure that your information is fully encrypted and sent across the Internet securely, and PCI Scanning to actively protect our servers from hackers and other vulnerabilities.

All supplied sensitive/credit information is transmitted via Secure Socket Layer (SSL) technology and then encrypted into our Payment gateway providers database only to be accessible by those authorized with special access rights to such systems, and are required to keep the information confidential.

After a transaction, your private information, including credit card details, will not be stored on our servers.

It is important for you to protect yourself against unauthorized access to your password and to your computer. Be sure to sign off when finished using a shared computer by clicking the "Log Out" button located near the top right-hand side of the screen.

You can learn more about our security policies by reviewing our main Security page.

A+ Flint River Ranch has partnered with Authorize.Net, a leading payment gateway since 1996, to offer safe and secure credit card transactions for our customers.
