Thomas Creed does, however, use "cookies" to collect information about how our site is used.

Information Use

We may use information you have given us to, for example, provide a service, ensure proper billing, measure consumer interest in our various products and inform you about products and services. If you have provided your E-mail address to us or to a company we've partnered with to make their products and services available to you, we may send you E-mail offers. We may also send you E-mail offers if you have provided your E-mail address to a third party and have actively chosen or requested, on an opt-in basis, to receive E-mail offers from other parties. These offers may be based on information you provided in your initial transaction with us, in surveys, from information that may indicate purchasing preferences and lifestyle, as well as information available from external sources, such as census bureau data. These E-mail offers come directly from Thomas Creed. You can opt out from receiving E-mail offers from Thomas Creed n as described below in the section, "Declining E-mail offers".

When we send E-mails to you, we may be able to identify information about your E-mail address, such as whether you can read graphic-rich HTML E-mails. If your E-mail address is HTML-enabled, we may choose to send you HTML E-mails.

Our goal is to deliver offers to people who we believe will find them of value. Offers are developed and managed under strict conditions designed to safeguard the security and privacy of customer personal information.

Declining E-mail Offers

Thomas Creed provides customers with an easy means to decline receiving E-mail offers. Although some customers tell us they appreciate receiving notice of these carefully designed opportunities, we recognize the importance of providing you with choices. At any time, you may request to discontinue receiving these offers from us by simply replying to the E-mail and informing us of your preferences. All E-mail offers that you receive from Thomas Creed will inform you of how to decline receiving further E-mail offers. You may submit a request to decline receiving further E-Mail offers online at any time.
