Our Commitment to Privacy
Thank you for visiting our Web site. Even though we like to have fun around the office (we've often been told we should have our own reality TV show...imagine something along the lines of Duck Dynasty meets Jackass...), security is something we take very seriously at Flying Circle. The protection of your privacy and your personal information as you interact with us online is very important to us, and we have security safeguards and online information practices in place to keep your data secure.

Personal Information Collected Directly from Customers and How We Use Your Information
