required to keep the information confidential. When you place orders
or access your personal information, we offer the use of a secure
server. All sensitive/credit information you supply is transmitted
via Secure Socket Layer (SSL) technology and then encrypted into our
databases to be only accessed as stated above.
Do we use "cookies"?
Yes. Cookies are small files that a site or its service provider
transfers to your computer's hard drive through your Web browser (if
you allow) that enables the site's or service provider's systems to
recognize your browser and capture and remember certain information.
For instance, we use cookies to help us remember and process the
items in your shopping cart. They are also used to help us
understand your preferences based on previous or current site
activity, which enables us to provide you with improved services. We
also use cookies to help us compile aggregate data about site
traffic and site interaction so that we can offer better site
experiences and tools in the future.
We may contract with third-party service providers to assist us in
better understanding our site visitors. These service providers are
not permitted to use the information collected on our behalf except
to help us conduct and improve our business.
You can choose to have your computer warn you each time a cookie is
being sent, or you can choose to turn off all cookies. You do this
through your browser (like Netscape Navigator or Internet Explorer)
settings. Each browser is a little different, so look at your
browser Help menu to learn the correct way to modify your cookies.
If you turn cookies off, you won't have access to many features that
make your site experience more efficient and some of our services
will not function properly. However, you can still place orders over
the telephone by contacting customer service.

We do not sell, trade, or otherwise transfer to outside parties your
personally identifiable information unless we provide you with
advance notice, except as described below. The term "outside
parties" does not include Steakbrands.com. It also does not include
website hosting partners and other parties who assist us in
operating our website, conducting our business, or servicing you, so
long as those parties agree to keep this information confidential.
We may also release your information when we believe release is
appropriate to comply with the law, enforce our site policies, or
protect ours or others' rights, property, or safety.
