We do not re-sell or distribute any of the information that you provide in online forms. Such forms include ordering online, requesting more information and adding your name to our mailing list. Like every major online vendor, we utilize "cookie" technology (see below) but the information gathered with cookies is limited to your order information for any current shopping session, and where you travel within our site.

Authentic Sites like WinBook.com use a VeriSign Secure Server Digital ID to offer proof of identity, to enable secure communications and to encrypt transations with site visitors through their web browser connections.  The only way to be sure of a web site's authenticity is to view the site's Digital ID.  Viewing a site's ID assures that your are not being "spoofed" (i.e. the site is real and not an imposter) since it contains:

>The name of the company which owns the web site (e.g. WinBook)
>The site's registered Internet address (e.g. www.winbook.com)
>The name of the Secure Server Certification Authority under which VeriSign
issued the Digital ID (RSA Data Security or VeriSign)
