We do not share this information with outside parties except to the extent necessary to complete that order. • We use the information you provide about someone else when placing an order only to ship the product and to confirm delivery. We do not share this information with outside parties except to the extent necessary to complete that order. • From time to time we may offer gift-cards by which you can personalize a product you order for another person.

Our Commitment to Children's Privacy: • Protecting the privacy of the very young is especially important. For that reason, we never collect or maintain information at our website from those we actually know are under 13, and no part of our website is structured to attract anyone under 13. Information Sharing and Disclosure • SpadeLRanch does not rent, sell, or share personal information about you with other people or nonaffiliated companies except to provide products or services you've requested, when we have your permission, or under the following circumstances: o We provide the information to trusted partners who work on behalf of or with SpadeLRanch under confidentiality agreements. These companies may use your personal information to help SpadeLRanch communicate with you about offers from SpadeLRanch and our marketing partners. However, these companies do not have any independent right to share this information. o We have a parent's permission to share the information if the user is a child under age 13. Parents have the option of allowing SpadeLRanch to collect and use their child's information without consenting to SpadeLRanch sharing of this information with people and companies who may use this information for their own purposes; o We respond to subpoenas, court orders, or legal process, or to establish or exercise our legal rights or defend against legal claims; o We believe it is necessary to share information in order to investigate, prevent, or take action regarding illegal activities, suspected fraud, situations involving potential threats to the physical safety of any person, violations of SpadeLRanch's terms of use, or as otherwise required by law. • We transfer information about you if SpadeLRanch is acquired by or merges with another company. Confidentiality and Security • We limit access to personal information about you to employees who we believe reasonably need to come into contact with that information to provide products or services to you or in order to do their jobs. • We have physical, electronic, and procedural safeguards that comply with federal regulations to protect personal information about you.
