The Information We Collect

In order to provide services to our customers, we may collect personal data from our customers.

We may also collect certain non-personal information including the type of web browser you are using (e.g. Internet Explorer, Firefox, etc.), the type of operating system you are using (e.g. Windows XP, Mac OS) and the domain name of your Internet service provider (e.g. America Online, Earthlink).

How Secure Is Information About Me?

We work to protect the security of your information during transmission by using Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) software, which encrypts information you input. We reveal only the last five digits of your credit card numbers when confirming a payment. Of course, we transmit the entire credit card number to the appropriate credit card company during payment processing.

TLC uses a combination of industry-standard security technologies, procedures, and organizational measures to help protect your personal data from unauthorized access, use or disclosure, and abuse.
