Special Offers, Account Updates and Opting
Out
CreateForLess occasionally sends our customers and the users of the
Site announcements and updates, which contain important information
about the Site and service offerings which we believe to be of
value to our customers and users. In order to do this, we may
enhance or merge the information we collect on the Site with data
from third parties for purposes of marketing products or services
to our customers and users.
We may communicate with the users of the Site via e-mail,
telephone, mail, or fax in order to provide requested services,
content, product information, notification of special offers, or in
regard to customer service issues relating to an account. The users
of the Site are always given the opportunity to 'opt-out' of having
their online information used for purposes not directly related to
the Site. This option is available when we ask for the information
or when the user receives an online requested promotional
communication.
For example, our e-mail messages have an "unsubscribe" feature
for users of the Site who buy from us, but don't want to be
notified about special offers in the future. Users can simply
"Reply" back to the e-mail message and type "unsubscribe" in the
subject field. Upon receipt of the reply, CreateForLess will remove
that e-mail address from our e-mail list. If a user has more than
one e- mail address, he or she should include the other addresses
as well to ensure proper updating of their account information.
Users of the Site can always update the personally identifying
information that they have provided to CreateForLess simply by
accessing and updating their account information on the Site or by
e-mailing us at info@createforless.com.
At CreateForLess, your privacy and security are very important
