SoyCandleMaker.biz is not owned or operated by SoyCandleMaker.com

SoyCandleMaker.biz is a registered distributor for CandleWealth International and is owned and operated by different parties.

SoyCandleMaker.biz provides a link to SoyCandleMaker.com and a "Dealer's Code" which allows any Authorized Customer of SoyCandleMaker.biz to purchase directly from the SoyCandleMaker.com website at prices that are 50% - 70% off retail prices found in stores.

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, SoyCandleMaker.biz 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.

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 Personally Identifiable Information about you or allow anyone to identify you individually.

We may use Personally Identifiable Information collected on SoyCandleMaker.biz to communicate with you about your registration and customization preferences; our Terms of Service and privacy policy; services and products offered by SoyCandleMaker.biz and other topics we think you might find of interest.

Personally Identifiable Information collected by SoyCandleMaker.biz 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.

How is login information used?

SoyCandleMaker.biz uses login information, including, but not limited to, IP addresses, ISPs, and browser types, to analyze trends, administer the Site, provide member access, track a user's movement through the Site, track a user's use of the Site, and to gather broad demographic information.

Can an Authorized Customer correct any inaccuracies in Personally Identifiable Information?

Upon request we provide Authorized Customers with access to unique identifier information (e.g., customer number or password) that we maintain about them, communications that the Visitor or Authorized Customer has directed to our site (e.g., e-mails, customer inquiries), and contact information (e.g., name, address, phone number) that we maintain about them.

Visitors and Authorized Customers can access this information by e-mailing us at the above address, or by writing to us at the above address.

Authorized Customers may update Personally Identifiable Information about themselves or correct any inaccuracies, by emailing us at or in writing at the above address.

Before receiving any information, or correcting any inaccuracies, Authorized Customers must submit whatever information is demanded by SoyCandleMaker.biz or its Staff so that we can insure we are dealing with the correct person or party.

Can an Authorized Customer delete or deactivate Personally Identifiable Information collected by the Site?

We provide Authorized Customers with a mechanism to delete/deactivate Personally Identifiable Information from the Site's database by visiting us at http://www.soycandlemaker.biz/unsubscribe.html.  However, because of backups and records of deletions, it may be impossible to delete a Visitor's entry without retaining some residual information. An individual who requests to have Personally Identifiable Information deactivated will have this information functionally deleted.

How does the Site keep Personally Identifiable Information secure?

All of our employees are familiar with our security policy and practices. The Personally Identifiable Information of our Visitors and Authorized Customers is only accessible to a limited number of qualified employees who are given a password in order to gain access to the information.

We audit our security systems and processes on a regular basis. Sensitive information, such as credit card numbers or social security numbers, is protected by encryption protocols, in place to protect information sent over the Internet.

While we take commercially reasonable measures to maintain a secure site, electronic communications and databases are subject to errors, tampering and break-ins, and we cannot guarantee or warrant that such events will not take place and we will not be liable to our Visitors or Authorized Customers for any such occurrences.

SoyCandleMaker.biz expects its 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 SoyCandleMaker.biz page, certain content that is actually created or hosted by a third party. Also, through SoyCandleMaker.biz you may be introduced to, or be able to access, information, Web sites, features, contests or sweepstakes offered by other parties. SoyCandleMaker.biz 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 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 site may offer services operated by third parties and may use cookies or other technology to gather information. SoyCandleMaker.biz 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 Personally Identifiable Information on message boards or in chat areas, that information can be viewed publicly and can be collected and used by third parties without our knowledge and may result in unsolicited messages from other individuals or third parties. Such activities are beyond the control of SoyCandleMaker.biz and this policy.
