Privacy
Statement
It is The Lucian Company's policy
to respect and protect your privacy. We do not sell, share, rent, loan or transfer any
personal information regarding our customers to any unrelated third parties. Any
information you give us about yourself is held in confidence and will not be used in ways
to which you have not consented.
Gathering and Use of Personal Information
In order to fill your order, you
may be requested to provide contact and/or credit card information. If we have trouble
processing an order, a request, or completing a delivery, this information will be used to
contact you. When you order, we need to know your
name, e-mail address, mailing address, daytime telephone number, fax number, credit card
number, and expiration date. This allows us to process and fulfill your order and to
notify you of your order status. We personalize your shopping experience by using your
purchases to help shape our product selection. We also monitor customer traffic patterns
and site usage to help us develop the design and layout of the store and create the best
shopping experience we can for our users.
Security
Strong precautions are taken to
protect the information of the users of our site. When users submit sensitive information
via the site, that information is protected both online and off-line. We take credit card
information security seriously. Your information is encrypted and is protected utilizing
the industry standard Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) encryption software. While on a secure
page, such as our order form, the lock icon on the bottom of Web browsers such as Netscape
Navigator and Microsoft Internet Explorer becomes locked, as opposed to un-locked, or
open, when you are just 'surfing'. While we use SSL encryption to protect sensitive
information online, we also protect user- information off-line. Only those of our
employees who need the information to perform a specific job (for example, our account or
customer service representatives) are granted access to personally identifiable
information. Furthermore, our employees are kept up-to-date on our security and privacy
practices.
Guarantee
Your browser and The Lucian
Companys secure server encrypt confidential information during transmission,
ensuring that transactions stay private and protected. The Lucian Companys
guarantees the safety of your credit card information in the following manner: if any
unauthorized use of your credit card occurs as a result of your credit card purchase from
The Lucian Company, simply notify your credit card provider in accordance with its
reporting rules and procedures. If, through no fault of your own, your credit card company

The Lucian Company will reimburse you for the remaining liability, up to a maximum of
fifty dollars U.S. ($50.00) per card. This guarantee applies to purchases made using The
Lucian Companys secure server (https: protocol).
