What are cookies? How does Showingbook.com use cookies on its site? A cookie is a small
data file that websites often store on your computer's hard drive when you visit
their sites. A cookie may contain information, such as a unique user ID that
websites use to track the pages of the sites you've visited. We use cookies but
do not store personally identifiable information in your cookie.

cookies, though, we will not be able to track your order to enable you to
purchase from our site. Nor will we be able to recognize you as a registered

Is my information secure? Protecting your order information is important to us.
We use Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) technology to protect your online order
information as it is transmitted over the Internet.
Some versions of browsers and some firewalls don't permit communication through
secure servers like the ones we use to process orders at Showingbook.com. To check the
security of your connection, look at the lower left-hand corner of your browser
window after accessing the server. If you see an unbroken key or a closed lock
(depending on your browser), then SSL is active. You can also double-check by
looking at the URL line of your browser. When accessing a secure server, the
first characters of the site address will change from "http" to "https."
If your browser or firewall doesn't support SSL, you will not be able to connect
to the server, which means you won't be able to mistakenly place an order
through an unsecured connection.
What about links to other websites and services? The Showingbook.com website may contain
links to other sites. Showingbook.com does not control the privacy policies or practices of
these websites. You should review those policies before providing any personal
information. Showingbook.com is not responsible for the content or practices of any linked
websites, and we provide these links solely for the convenience and information
of our visitors.
