How we use information

We use return E-mail addresses to answer the E-mail we receive. Such addresses are not used for any other purpose and are not shared with outside parties.

You can contact us through our web site if you would like to receive information, be contacted by a representative or to receive updates on our products and services. Information you submit on our web site will not be used for this purpose unless you agree to be added to our mailing list.

We use non-identifying and aggregate information to better design our web site For example, we may use gathered information to tell that X number of individuals visited a certain area on our web site, but we would not disclose anything that could be used to identify those individuals.

Finally, we never use or share the personally identifiable information provided to us online in ways unrelated to the ones described above without also providing you an opportunity to opt-out or otherwise prohibit such unrelated uses.

Our commitment to data security

To prevent unauthorized access, maintain data accuracy, and ensure the correct use of information, we have put in place appropriate physical, electronic, and managerial procedures to safeguard and secure the information we collect online. All the information we collect is held in a secure database, off-line.

Further, all credit card or bank account information is never collected or even seen by our office. At this time all on-line sales are handled PayPal. From your Shopping Cart you select "Paypal" to go to Paypal. You are transferred directly to PayPal's secure site to complete the payment portion. Only after this is complete do you return to our web site. We never see the transaction.

A little information about PayPal. PayPal would prefer that you to create an account. The good news is that you can use this account to quickly checkout on many websites with just a few clicks. But, YOU DO NOT HAVE TO CREATE AN ACCOUNT TO USE PAYPAL! To the side of the "create account" section on PayPal you will see credit card symbols. Click there and you can enter your information manually without creating an account. No matter if your transaction is with Timberworks Housewrights or any other vendor, by using PayPal, the vendor never sees your payment information. All security is handled by PayPal.

Our commitment to children's privacy

Protecting the privacy of your children is especially important. For that reason, we never collect or maintain information at our web site from those we actually know to be under the age of 13, and no part of our web site is structured to attract anyone under the age of 13. Any child under the age of 13 who wishes to receive information about our company, be contacted by us, or wishes to obtain information about Timber Framing for research or reports must request that their legal guardian contact us, in writing, requesting that we open up a conversation with this individual.
