In some instances, these contractors may have access to personally identifiable information but they contractually obligated to maintain the confidentiality of the information and to use it only for purposes of carrying out Orvis business. These companies are usually prohibited by contract from using this information for their own marketing purposes or from sharing this information with anyone other than Orvis. For example, when you submit a “product review” to the Orvis website, your information will be received and managed by an independent contractor that organizes the reviews and manages that element of the Orvis website. Before you submit a review, you should review the “Terms of Use” and “Standards for Reviews” that are linked on the Orvis website so that you can understand the terms and conditions for acceptance and use of your information. In some instances, you may choose to deal with some of these contractors directly and provide your personal information to them. In those instances, you should check the privacy policies on their independent websites to make sure you are willing to have your personal information handled to your satisfaction. For example, when you make a purchase from Orvis with a credit card, you may choose to use an independent card processor, such as PayPal. When these or similar choices are available, you will be notified about the option of checking their respective privacy policies, which will govern the collection and use of personal information that you give to them directly.
