Privacy & Security

At The Picket Fence, we are committed to protecting the privacy of our customers, which is why we do not sell, rent, or loan any personal identifiable information regarding our customers to any third party. We hope the policy below will answer all of your questions regarding how we treat information gathered from visitors to The Picket Fence. Feel free to email us at info@thepicketfence.com with any questions you might have.

What Information We Collect

In order to process your order efficiently, we collect the following information: name, billing address, shipping address, e-mail address, phone number, and credit card number ("Personal Information"). This information is used solely by The Picket Fence and is stored in a secure environment. Under certain circumstances we do also collect the user's IP address, but only when we suspect that credit card fraud may have occurred. 

Use of Information that You Provide

At The Picket Fence we collect Personal Information only for the purposes of fulfilling orders, providing a high level of customer service. We do not give or sell Personal Information to any other party. If at any time you do not want to receive offers from us, you can always remove yourself from our mailing list by sending an e-mail to info@thepicketfence.com

Opt-out Email policy 

We ask that you tell us when you do not wish to receive periodic emails from us. We will only send email for customer service purposes and to those visitors who have indicated that they wish to receive other types of email from us. If at any time you wish to stop receiving email from us at any time, you can always remove your name from our mailing list by sending an email to info@thepicketfence.com stating that you wish to unsubscribe.

Security of the Information You Provide

Our top priority is to keep your Personal Information secure.

Encrypted information cannot be read or recorded as it travels over the Internet. You can tell you are sending information securely by the unbroken key icon or closed lock icon that should appear at the bottom of your internet browser's window (depending on what browser you use). These icons will appear when you are placing an order on our Web site. In addition, you will see our site address change slightly, from http: to https: indicating a secure server connection is being used. 

Additionally, access to your Personal Information is provided only to our employees and agents who have a need to know such information for the purpose of fulfilling your order and offering our high level of customer service. The computers that store your Personal Information are located in a separate facility which uses the latest in firewall and security technology.
