WHERE WE COLLECT INFORMATION
This section provides an overview of the kinds of personal information we ask for and how we use it. Details of these practices can be found following the overview:
Ordering products and services on the Atelier Concierge Web site
You can request products or services from Atelier Concierge by phone, fax, email, or the online request form system.

The request form asks for personal information that identifies who you are, such as your name, email address, and shipping address, as well as financial information, such as your credit card number and the card's expiration date.
Participating in surveys
Occasionally, we may give you the opportunity to participate in a survey online or by email to help us adapt our services to the expressed needs of customers. If you decide to accept, we may ask for demographic information, such as your age and ZIP code, but typically we will ask for no personal information, such as your name and email address.
Participating in promotions
Occasionally, we may announce a special promotion or offer on the Atelier Concierge Web site or by email, if you have elected to receive emails. If you choose to participate, we may ask for certain information that identifies who you are, such as your name and address, so that we can follow through on the promotion.

Session information includes Internet protocol (IP) addresses, the type of Web browser you use, your Internet service provider, your computer's operating system, a date/time stamp for your visit, and click stream data (indicating the Web pages you navigate to).
