DO WE USE COOKIES, WEB BEACONS OR THIRD PARTY ADVERTISERS?
Cookies
A "cookie" is a small data file that a website may send to your browser and that your browser may then store on your system. We use session cookies to simulate a continuous connection - cookies let us "remember" information about your preferences and passwords and allow you to move within our service without reintroducing yourself. For example, cookies are used to keep track of what you have selected to purchase as you click through our site. We also use cookies to allow you to access areas of our website that are limited to registered users. We do NOT, however, use cookies to track the navigational habits of identified visitors. Furthermore, we do NOT allow other companies (third parties) to set cookies via the CapeCadsStore.com website. Most browsers automatically accept cookies, but you can usually refuse cookies, or selectively accept cookies, by adjusting the preferences in your browser. If you turn cookies off, there may be some features of our site that will not be available to you and some web pages may not display properly.

Web Beacons
The CapeCadsStore.com website does NOT use electronic images known as web beacons, or clear GIFs to monitor the activity of our website.

From time to time, we may be required to provide personal information in response to a valid court order, subpoena, government investigation, or as otherwise required by law. Unless prevented by law, we will notify you prior to the release of such information.

At the time you provide your information, you can choose whether you want to receive further communications about special offers, product information or other marketing messages.

If we collect your information and you are not presented with a choice, that indicates the information you submit will only be used to fulfill your request.
