You may view the Ecwid Privacy Policy here. We also utilize E-Commerce Reports from Google Analytics to give us insight into our most popular purchases from our store, and to enhance user-friendliness in navigating our store via search terms – (i.e. do people tend to purchase Rocky Mountain Pine, or Ponderosa or Austrian Pine, when they search for Windbreak options at our site? And what was their overall experience, feedback, sharing of their success in choosing as such? We want you to succeed and/or find what you’re lookin’ for…)
Our goal is to use any sales and general anonymous data to make our visitors’ experience better.
Because we do not use AdWords, Affiliate Marketing or other avenues available to the online world, we stick to the basics – Do people easily find what they are searching for when they visit us? Can we organize our website & store content to make their ease-of-use/browsing experience better?
Bottom Line – We view any statistical, aggregated, data collected via 3rd party tools as a way to enhance the ease with which our online options are navigated by our visitors – nothing more, nothing less –
