For more than sixty years, Murphy & Company of Ballybofey,
County Donegal, Ireland, has respected the privacy of its customers.
Murphy of Ireland, a New York sole proprietorship of Conor E.
Murphy ("Murphy") - and its employees and agents - respects
that tradition and pledges to take all reasonable measures to
safeguard the privacy of every individual who visits its Web sites.
Purpose of Policy & Introduction
This privacy statement outlines the information Murphy will collect
and how we will use that information. This statement also describes
how you can verify the accuracy of your personal information submitted
to Murphy through our Web site and how you can request that we
delete your personal information from our databases. Finally,
this statement defines our position on children's use of our web
site.
Please note that the privacy practices described in this statement
apply only to the web pages maintained by Murphy of Ireland under
the domains it maintains, which include MurphyofIreland.com, MurphysofIreland,
IrishToys.com, TheIrishBabyGiftCompany.com, IrishBabyGiftCompany.com,
TheIrishTweedCompany.com, BlackTieTheKnot.com, EveryGuyNeeds.com
("our Web site").
Personal Information
It has always been Murphy's policy that its customers' personal
information (such as name, postal and e-mail address or telephone
number) is private and confidential. Accordingly, the personal
information provided by customers and visitors to our Web site
is stored in a secure location, is accessible only by designated
staff, and is used only for the purposes for which you provide
the information (such as to reply to your question, fulfill your
order or communicate regarding new products).
Murphy will not collect or retain any personal information at
our Web site, unless you choose to provide it. If you provide
it, Murphy may retain and use it to better address your shopping
needs, to understand your product preferences and to determine
how our products and Web site can be improved.
Murphy will not give or sell your personal information to any
outside organization for the organization's own use without your
consent. Your information may, however, be shared with agents
or contractors of Murphy in connection with services that these
individuals or entities perform for Murphy.
Security
Murphy is committed to keeping secure the data you provide us
and will take reasonable precautions to protect your personal
information from loss, misuse or alteration. Agents or contractors
of Murphy who have access to your personally identifiable information
in connection with providing services for Murphy are required
to keep the information confidential and are not permitted to
use this information for any other purpose than to carry out the
services they are performing for Murphy.
Your online purchase information is handled by The Murphy of
Ireland Online Store, and the transaction and credit card information
is handled via PayPal. In this way your credit card details are
completely secure
Non-Personal Information Collected
Our Web site is not set up to track, collect or distribute personal
information about its visitors. It does recognize the home server
of visitors, but not e-mail addresses. For example, we can tell
which Internet service provider our visitors use, but not the
names, addresses or other information about our visitors that
would allow us to identify particular visitors to our site.
In addition, our Web site tracks information about visits. For
example, we compile statistics that show the daily number of visitors,
the daily requests we receive for particular files on our Web
site, and what countries those requests come from. These aggregated
statistics are used internally to better provide information to
the public and may also be provided to others, but again, the
statistics contain no personal information and cannot be used
to gather such information.

and would like to have that information deleted from our databases,
