INFORMATION WE COLLECT
We collect information from you is to provide you with a smooth, efficient and customized experience while using our Website and to allow us to provide products and services to you. Mom’s the Word may collect personally identifiable information such as name, address, email address, and phone number when you purchase products form our online store.

For purposes of billing, you may need to provide your credit card type, number, expiration date and billing address for the card. Protecting your information is our highest priority. We have developed several safeguards to keep your information completely confidential. To proceed to checkout, you must enter your e-mail address and create a password. The checkout process itself employs Secure Sockets Layer (SSL)* technology to ensure your safety.

Mom’s the Word does not store this information.
