This is the web site of Dorene's Wide Shoes,

We do not collect any information on visitors to our web site. Any information you provide is kept in strictest confidence and is used only to satisfy your requests for our products and services.

If you give us your e-mail address and phone numbers, we will use them only when we need to get in touch with you about a specific order; we do not make solicitations by e-mail or phone and NEVER share this or any other information about you with any other companies or organizations.

If you give us your mailing address, we will add your name to our mailing list. Your name will not be rented, sold or in any other way shared with other companies, and we will promptly discontinue mailing to you if requested to do so. We also appreciate being told of unintentional duplicate mailings and being informed of change of address if you move.

Consumer data and transaction security:

The data you provide through our secure on-line ordering system is protected by an encrypted SSL connection. Only authorized Dorene's Wide Shoes supervisory personnel have access to our secure site. Once your order is entered into our proprietary order processing system on our internal network, it is accessible only by authorized members of our customer service staff to fill your order or to fill your customer service request. (We never contract with outside call centers.) All our customer information is stored in the well-supervised office environment of our headquarters and our computer programs and office procedures are specifically designed to safeguard all personal customer information included in order processing paperwork and computer files.

About "cookies":

Our on-line shopping cart system uses a feature of modern browsers called the "cookie". A cookie is simply a piece of information that is temporarily stored on your disk drive by the browser. We use cookies only in the following two ways:

(1) To keep track of the contents of your shopping cart while you are shopping. The information is discarded after you submit your order.

(2) Your name and address information from the order form are put in a cookie to allow the form to fill in these items automatically the next time you use it.

Both of these features are provided for your convenience. We do not associate the information stored in a visitor's cookie with any other personal data about that visitor, nor do we use cookies for any kind of sales tracking or marketing purposes
