Payment Options:
We accept
Credit Card payments only. Orders will be shipped out within 72 hours, unless it is a
handmade item that requires personalization. You will be notified of any
shipping time changes.
*Credit card address used must be the same as the billing
address of the card.
International Orders
We sincerely regret that we cannot fulfill international orders at this
time. Due to a significant rise in fraudulent activity many vendors do not accept international
credit card orders through their web sites.
Shipping:
All orders will be shipped according to the vendor’s shipping polices.
*Please read "Return" policy below about a restocking fee for
returned items.
Returns & Exchanges:
Because each item is shipped direct from the vendors, there may be different
return/refund policies. Therefore each order will contain the return/refund
policy with the order, should you have a problem. Every product is
guaranteed to be top quality and new. If you need to know about a particular
product now, please email us for the specific refund policy.
Most will hold at least a 14 day return guarantee. Most will also have a
restocking fee of around 10-15%. No shipping charges will be refunded.
Our Secure Ordering System:
Our on-line shopping system uses "SSL 128bit Strong Security" Based on the
"public/private key" encryption model - the same technology used to protect
nuclear missile codes - VeriSign Secure Server IDs provide the strongest
security available today. Best of all, this technology is already
established on our server for our customers.
Each product represents an individual company. We have hand selected these
businesses to offer their products on Baby Gift City. Your credit card may
have a different name on the card statement for you order, as each order
will be sent to the corresponding company. Your card will NOT be charged for
more than the receipt statement. Your card will NOT be charged until the
order ships. You will be notified by the company(s) in which will be
shipping your product(s) out. You will be notified of any shipping time
changes, and will be notified of their individual return/refund policy.

Privacy Policy For Baby Gift City.com
Last Updated: March 7, 2008
How We Gather Information From Users
How we collect and store information depends on the page you are visiting,
the activities in which you elect to participate and the services provided. For
example, you may be asked to provide information when you register for access to
certain portions of our site or request certain features, such as newsletters,
or when you make a purchase. You may provide information when you participate in
sweepstakes and contests, message boards and chat rooms, and other interactive
areas of our site.
Like most Web sites, Baby Gift City.com also collects information
automatically and through the use of electronic tools that may be transparent to
our visitors. For example, we may log the name of your Internet Service Provider
or use cookie technology to recognize you and hold information from your visit.
Among other things, the cookie may store your user name and password, sparing
you from having to re-enter that information each time you visit, or may control
the number of times you encounter a particular advertisement while visiting our
site.
As we adopt additional technology, we may also gather information through
other means. In certain cases, you can choose not to provide us with
information, for example by setting your browser to refuse to accept cookies;
but if you do, you may be unable to access certain portions of the site or may
be asked to re-enter your user name and password, and we may not be able to
customize the site's features according to your preferences.
What We Do With The Information We Collect
Like other Web publishers, we collect information to enhance your visit and
deliver more individualized content and advertising. We respect your privacy and
do not share your information with anyone.
Aggregated Information, (information that does not personally identify you),
may be used in many ways. For example, we may combine information about your
usage patterns with similar information obtained from other users to help
enhance our site and services (e.g., to learn which pages are visited most or
what features are most attractive). Aggregated Information may occasionally be
shared with our advertisers and business partners. Again, this information does
not include any Personal Identifiable Information about you or allow anyone to
identify you individually.
We may use Personal Identifiable Information collected on Baby Gift City.com
to communicate with you about your registration and customization preferences;
our Terms of Service and Privacy Policy; services and products offered by us and
other topics we think you might find of interest.
Personal Identifiable Information may also be used for other purposes,
including but not limited to site administration, troubleshooting, processing of
e-commerce transactions, administration of sweepstakes and contests, and other
communications with you. Certain third parties who provide technical support for
the operation of our site (our Web hosting service for example) may access such
information. We will use your information only as permitted by law.
In addition, from time to time as we continue to develop our business, we may
sell, buy, merge, or partner with other companies or businesses. In such
transactions, user information may be among the transferred assets. We may also
disclose your information in response to a court order, at other times when we
believe we are reasonably required to do so by law, in connection with the
collection of amounts you may owe to us, and/or to law enforcement authorities
whenever we deem it appropriate or necessary. Please note we may not provide you
with notice prior to disclosure in such cases.
Affiliated Sites, Linked Sites And Advertisements
At Baby Gift City.com we expect our partners, advertisers, and affiliates to
respect the privacy of our users. Be aware, however, that third parties,
including our partners, advertisers, affiliates, and other content providers
accessible through our site, may have their own privacy and data collection
policies and practices. For example, during your visit to our site you may link
to, or view as part of a frame on a Baby Gift City.com page, certain content
that is actually created or hosted by a third party. Also, through Baby Gift
City.com you may be introduced to, or be able to access information, Web sites,
features, contests or sweepstakes offered by other parties. Please note that
Baby Gift City.com is not responsible for the
actions or policies of such third parties. You should check the applicable
privacy policies of those third parties when providing information on a feature
or page operated by a third party.
While on our Web site, our advertisers, promotional partners, or other third
parties may use cookies or other technology to attempt to identify some of your
preferences or retrieve information about you. For example, some of our
advertising is served by third parties and may include cookies that enable the
advertiser to determine whether you have seen a particular advertisement before.
Other features available on our Web site may offer services operated by third
parties and may use cookies or other technology to gather information. Our Web
site, Baby Gift City.com, does not control the use of this technology by
third parties or the resulting information, and is not responsible for any
actions or policies of such third parties.
You should also be aware that if you voluntarily disclose Personal
Identifiable Information on message boards or in chat areas or in forums, that
information can be viewed publicly and can be collected and used by third
parties without our knowledge or consent and may result in unsolicited messages
from other individuals or third parties. Such activities are beyond the control
of Baby Gift City.com and this privacy policy.
Third parties such as affiliate programs may use web beacons to collect
information, or place and read cookies on your browser while serving
advertisements on Baby Gift City.com. A cookie is a string of characters
sent to your computer while you visit web sites. When you revisit that web site
a cookie lets that web site recognize your browser. You do have the option to
refuse any or all cookies or to be notified when a cookie is being sent by
