Privacy Statement

We realize how important your privacy is to you, and it's important to us, too. That is why MusicK8.com does not sell, trade, or in any way disseminate information gathered from the web site to any outside party.

Any personal information provided voluntarily by customers/visitors to MusicK8.com is used for internal purposes only by Plank Road Publishing, publisher of MusicK8.com, Music K-8 magazine, and Recorder Classroom magazine. The information is kept strictly confidential.

The information you submit to us in an Internet order is placed in a secure database (which is protected by a firewall), so that our Customer Service representatives can better help you. For example, we ask you to provide a telephone number when you place an order so that a Customer Service representative can contact you, should there be any questions regarding your order.

Credit Card Numbers submitted as part of an Internet order through our Secure Store are transmitted in an encrypted format, protected by industry-standard security software. Cards are charged at the time the order is placed, so we do not store your credit card number.

When you place an online order with us, we send you an email confirmation of your order. We do not, however, send unnecessary email messages, or "spam."

We do not collect personally identifying information about you without your knowledge or permission. We do, however, gather non-identifying statistical information, such as which pages users visit, what computer platform and browser they use, and how long they view pages within the web site. This information helps us with web design decisions and allows us to gauge what type of information is most popular with or useful to visitors. In short, it helps us make the web site more useful to you.

We do not require you to register in order to use any features on this web site, with the exception of the optional Wish List feature and Plank Road Publishing account (for Express Checkout).

Our web site contains links to other web sites which we believe may be of interest to you. We are not responsible for the privacy practices of these web sites.
