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
Inka Crops conduct and improve its 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 our customer service number
(1-800) 456-7890 (US only).

we disclose the information we collect to outside parties?
We

personally identifiable information unless we provide you with
advance notice, except as described below. The term "outside
parties" does not include Inka Crops wholly-owned companies.
It also does not include website hosting partners and other parties
who assist us in operating our website, conducting Inka Crops' 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.
However, non-personally
identifiable visitor information may be provided to other parties
for marketing, advertising, or other uses.
