We place the highest importance on your privacy and security of information that you supply to us, and we treat the privacy and security of users of this website seriously. TheGlobalVillage.com.au will strictly only use your personal information as outlined in this privacy policy. In using this web site, you agree to the terms of this policy.

What Information Do We Collect?

The Global Village will not collect personally identifiable information about you unless you voluntarily supply it to us. The types of personal information collected include: name, shipping address, billing address, e-mail address, and phone number.

In addition, we collect non-personally identifiable information about users when we record the IP addresses from the computers used by visitors to our sites. An IP address is an address that points to your computer on the Web. Web servers identify your computer by the IP address assigned to it. Whenever you request a web site from that server, that server logs your IP addresses. TheGlobalVillage.com.au will never link IP addresses to anything personally identifiable. While your visit to TheGlobalVillage.com.au will be logged, your status remains anonymous to us unless you decide to provide information to us. We keep a record of the number of page views on each of our pages in order to better understand what pages are popular and meet the needs of our visitors.

How Do We Use Your Information?
