A cookie is a small text file usually stored on a user's computer hard drive, which enable a web site to "personalize" itself for each user by remembering information about the user's visit(s) to the web site. Cookies often act as place-holders to retain context and content during individual user sessions, making it easier for them to use the dynamic features of these web pages without having to provide the same information repeatedly as they move from one page to another during their visit. Cookies can also be used to track customer flow through a site including such information about where they came from the pages they visited and when they left. This information is often used to help improve the customers shopping experience. Our "cookie" are not used intentionally in any malicious ways. We DO NOT track where you go when you leave our site. We DO NOT log key stroke. We DO NOT share this information with or sell it to any outside agencies outside the normal course of business with Cahoon's Closet and its affiliated companies, owners or employees.

Fair Credit Billing Act
Under the Fair Credit Billing Act, your bank cannot hold you liable for more than $50.00 of fraudulent charges made on your account. If your bank does hold you liable for any of this $50.00, we will cover the entire unreimbursed liability for you, up to the full $50.00. We will only cover this liability if the unauthorized use of your credit card resulted through no fault of your own from purchases made while using our secure server. In the event of unauthorized use of your credit card, you must notify your credit card provider in accordance with its reporting rules and procedures and exhaust all remedies available to you through them or your bank before attempting to recover from us.
