Your privacy is important to us, and we know that you care about how information about your order is used and shared. We would like our international customers and customers shipping products internationally to be aware that cross-border shipments are subject to opening and inspection by customs and/or postal authorities.

This includes exchanging information with other companies and organisations for the purposes of fraud protection and credit risk reduction.
