Privacy Policy
At American Aquarium Products, we are committed to respecting and honoring your individual privacy. The following page describes our privacy policies regarding the personal information you provide us as well as information we collect about how our visitors use our site.
Personal Information
Most Shopping Cart information is performed outside our website via an encrypted service provided by PayPal, the World's leader in Internet checkout, running eBay and more small businesses than any other shopping cart service
You do NOT need to have a PayPal account to purchase from our site, you can sign up for future convenience (with your credit card, bank account, or keep money in the PayPal account) or simply use your credit card and fill out the checkout form with each order.
However for optimal security reasons over hosting our own checkout system, we do use PayPal as our checkout and and merchant carrier. If you choose to use your credit card, this simply means PayPal will be the "bank" on our side, but your credit card is how your transaction will go through (including if you use a PayPal account for simplicity and your PayPal account is tied to a credit card of your choice).
We can also invoice you for purchases if desired either via PayPal or PayPal Credit Card Invoice
Email/Phone orders are not saved to protect your identity and credit card information
Email
We believe that your email address is private information and you have our assurance that we do not rent or sell your email address to anyone. We use your email address to send you order-related emails, like shipping confirmations, as well as back order requests or similar
We will always try to contact you by email if we have a question about an order you placed. If we are unable to reach you by email, we may also try to contact you by phone.
