By clicking on My Details You are able to gain access to the type of information that Petalia receives and stores about You. Alternatively, such information will be provided to You on Your request, except to the extent that such disclosure is not required by law.

If you have concerns about giving personal information, there are various devices available to prevent us from gaining access to information automatically collected when You access the Website.

Linked Sites
The Website contains links to other websites. Petalia is not responsible for the privacy practices or the content of other Websites accessed by links from this Website.

Sharing Information
Petalia values your visit to the Website and any shopping that You may do at the Website. For this reason Petalia do not sell Your personal information, or that of Your pet, to others. Petalia only shares the information that it gathers about You, or Your pet, to its associated companies or advertising partners unless otherwise advised.

Your contact information may be used by Petalia for a variety of purposes including delivery of Your order, contacting You if necessary regarding a delivery or payment for an order or to send You information about Petalia, including promotional information. Your contact information may also be shared with any of our advertising partners (whose names will be clearly identified on the Website) and they may send You information about themselves, including promotional information.

Any financial information about You will be used for billing purposes, and may be used for credit enquiry purposes.

Cookies obtain certain information when Your web browser accesses the Website. The Website also uses cookies to save Your Password so that you do not have to re-enter it each time You shop at the Website. Your IP address may be used to help diagnose problems with our server, to administer the Website and to help identify You and Your shopping cart.

Petalia may also share information about You, gathered from your contact information, for the purposes of gathering certain demographic information about visitors to the Website. This also assists us with our marketing and promotional activities.

Petalia’s advertising partners are committed to the same obligations as we impose on ourselves in relation to the collection of Your personal information. Petalia is not responsible for, nor does it make any warranties or representations, about the adequacy of the privacy practices of any of our advertising partners.

Security
All information concerning you and your pets is stored in a secure database on a secure server, and can only be accessed by the Petalia system administrator and nominated staff.

We utilise the industry standard security protocol SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) to encrypt your private, ordering and credit card information for maximum security and integrity. We maintain a THAWTE 128-Bit Strong Encryption SSL Digital Certificate for this purpose.

We do not store your credit card information anywhere on the website. Your credit card information is entered as part of the order form to enable payment verification. The details are then discarded and a secure verification number is stored with the order to enable the payment to be processed when goods have been shipped.

Public Forums
This Website may make chat rooms, forums, message boards, and/or news groups available to you (“Public Forums”). You should exercise caution when using these Public Forums, as any information that is disclosed in such areas becomes public information.

Petalia tries to ensure, to the extent that it is able, that Your personal information (especially Your contact and financial information) is as accurate and up-to-date as possible.
