Miz En Place may be required to disclose personally identifiable information under special circumstances, such as to comply with subpoenas or when your actions violate the Miz En Place Terms of Use. Miz En Place may disclose personally identifiable information to parties at Miz En Place’s sole discretion if we believe it is necessary or appropriate in connection with an investigation of fraud, intellectual property infringement, piracy, or other unlawful activity.

Children and Privacy

We do not knowingly permit users to register for our Services if they are under 18 years old, or 13 years old, with the explicit consent of their parents. We therefore do not request personally identifiable information from anyone under the age of 18, or age 13 without parental consent. If we become aware that a customer is under the age of 18 and has registered without prior verifiable parental consent, we will remove his or her personally identifiable registration information from our files. If you are the parent or guardian of a person under the age of 18 who has provided personally identifiable information to us without your approval, please inform us by contacting us at customerservice@mizenplace.com and we will remove such information from our database.

Security

The security of your personal information is important to us. Your Miz En Place account information is protected by a password for your privacy and security. You need to work to protect against unauthorized access to your password and to your computer by signing off once you have finished (if using a shared computer). When you enter sensitive information (such as credit card number) for registration Miz En Place encrypts that information using Transport Layer Security technology (TLS). Miz En Place follows generally accepted industry standards to protect the personal information submitted to us, both during transmission and once Miz En Place receives it. No method of transmission over the Internet, or method of electronic storage, is 100% secure. Therefore, while Miz En Place strives to use commercially acceptable means to protect your personal information, Miz En Place cannot guarantee its absolute security. If you have any questions about security on Miz En Place’s websites, you can email us at customerservice@mizenplace.com.
