This Privacy Statement covers our treatment of personally identifiable information we collect when you
access our Bluefin Coffee Company ("Bluefin Coffee", "we", "us", or "our") web site located at
www.bluefincoffeeco.com (the “Site”). This Privacy Statement applies and is limited to treatment of
information that is collected via our Web Site. By using the Site, you are accepting the practices described
in this Privacy Statement, as modified by us from time to time. If we change this Privacy Statement, we will
post a notice on the home page of bluefincoffeeco.com and change the date at the top of this Privacy
Statement, so that you are always aware of the information that we collect and how we use it. Therefore,
we encourage you to check this page periodically for updates or changes whenever you visit the Site. All
changes will become effective when posted, and by continuing to use the Site following the posting of any
changes, you agree to be bound by such modified Privacy Statement.
The Information We Collect and How We Use It
When you visit and use the Site, we gather certain information to help us better serve you. The information
that we receive and collect depends on what you do when you visit the Site. Except as described in this
Privacy Statement, we do not sell, rent, share or disclose the personally identifiable information that you
provide to us (which is information that can be used to identify you individually) with any other organization.
Information about our customers is an important part of our business, and we are not in the business of
selling it to others. Currently, Bluefin Coffee sends personally identifiable information to third-party service
providers that work on our behalf to provide services relating to the ongoing maintenance and operation of
the Site. These third parties do not have the right to use the personally identifiable information beyond
what is necessary to assist us. They are contractually obligated to maintain the confidentiality and security
of such information, and are prohibited from using such information in any way not expressly authorized
by Bluefin Coffee. Some of our employees have access to customer information only in order to serve
customers or maintain our information systems. These employees are subject to our corporate privacy
policy.
Browsing the Site
When you browse the Site, we do not collect personally identifiable information. Even when you add items
to a shopping cart as you browse, there is no need to submit personally identifiable information.
Submitting an Order
When you submit an order we ask for your name, e-mail address, billing address, shipping address,
telephone number, fax number and credit card information. Your credit card information is sent to, and
processed by third party financial institutions and their vendors. These service providers receive this
information only for the purpose of verifying your credit card information, and for processing payment for
your order, and they are obligated to keep this information confidential.
Information We Automatically Collect
Some information is automatically collected when you visit the Site. We collect the name of the domain
and host from which you access the internet, the internet protocol (IP) address of the computer you are
using, the browser software you use and your operating system, the date and time you access the Site,
and the internet address of the web site from which you linked directly to the Site. We use this information
to monitor the Site and provide us with the ability to enhance our customers' shopping experience and to
determine aggregate information about usage patterns.
We use cookies to enhance the browsing and shopping experience on the Site. "Cookies" are small files
or records that we place on your computer's hard drive to collect information about your activities on the
Site. The information captured makes it possible for us to speed navigation, keep track of items in your
shopping cart and provide you with custom tailored content.
You can choose to have your browser warn you every time a cookie is being sent to you or you can turn off
your computer's ability to receive cookies. If you refuse cookies, you will not be able to open a shopping
cart on the Site, and therefore will not be able to complete an order with us online.
How We Secure Your Information
We make every effort to ensure that your personal information is protected on our system. Our Site uses
Secure Socket Layer (SSL) encryption to help ensure that your personal information cannot be read as it
passes over the Internet, including your credit card number. We also require our credit card transaction
processor to use adequate security and encryption technology to ensure the safety and security of your
personally identifiable information.
