Cookies 

A cookie is a block of text placed in a file on the user's hard drive by a Web site you've visited.

Plainfield Golf uses cookies to observe our site visitor's navigation and track page use. This helps us identify ways to improve the shopping experience. Cookies used for this purpose are not attached to personally identifiable information. Plainfield Golf also uses cookies to perform functions that must be tied to a specific visitor, such as keeping track of the items in the shopping cart.

These browsers encrypt your credit card and personal information in a way that makes it extremely difficult for anyone to intercept and misuse while being transmitted between your computer and our server.

Once you have completed your order online, our security procedures do not end. We take appropriate precautions to protect the security and privacy of the information stored on our computer networks. Many of the systems which store your personal information are not connected to the Internet, reducing the likelihood of security breaches. Our systems are also housed in secure facilities, and access to your data by our employees is limited to those in highly specified roles, controlled by password protected systems, and monitored for abuse.
