Who does CCRC share information with?
We will share personal customer information with our agents, representatives, affiliated companies and trusted service providers and contractors for limited purposes, including fulfilling customer orders; offering certain products and services in connection with our website; communicating to customers; providing customer service; enhancing and improving consumers’ shopping experiences; enabling access to our partners’ sites; and completing credit card transactions. These third parties are not allowed to use this information for any purpose except those identified in this paragraph.

However, CCRC reserves the right to cooperate with law enforcement agencies and officials in the investigation of alleged unlawful activities of our customers or any third parties related to electronic communications transmitted on our site, in response to a subpoena or other judicial or legal process, or as otherwise required by law. CCRC will have no legal liability for such disclosures.

Your California Privacy Rights
California Civil Code Section 1798.83, also known as S.B. 27, allows individual customers who have provided their personal information to CCRC to request information about our disclosures of certain categories of personal information to third parties for their direct marketing purposes. Such requests must be submitted to us in one of the following ways: send a letter to CCRC, Attn. Website Coordinator, 2405 Grand Blvd., Ste. 200, Kansas City, MO 64108. Within thirty days of receiving such a request, we will provide a list of the categories of personal information disclosed to third parties for third party direct marketing purposes during the immediately preceding year, along with the names and addresses of these third parties. This request may be made no more than once per calendar year. We reserve our right not to respond to requests submitted to locations other than those specified above.
Does CrownCenter.com ensure the security and privacy practices of other sites to which it links?
While we carefully select the websites to which we link, we are not responsible for the privacy practices or the content of these websites. When you provide personal information at one of those sites, you are subject to the privacy policy of the operator of that site, not the CCRC privacy policy. We encourage you to read that policy before submitting any personal information.
How will I know when Crown Center changes its privacy policy?
Our privacy policy is regularly reviewed to make sure we continue to serve the privacy interests of our customers. If our information practices change materially, we will post the policy changes on the privacy page of this website to notify you of these changes. You should check our website periodically for more information on how we use the data we collect.
