Our goal here at Hylands Enterprises is to make sure that you have the best shopping experience possible. In addition, while it is necessary for us to collect certain personal information during purchases, we respect and protect your right to privacy. The following policy is designed to answer any questions and concerns you may have regarding your privacy and the security of your information. If you have any additional questions or concerns, please contact our customer service department and we will take care of any of your questions.

What Information Do We Collect and How?

When you order, we need to know your name, e-mail address, mailing address, credit card number, and expiration date. This allows us to process your order and to notify you of your order status. We use merchant services to process your order, so to help protect from fraudulant purchases, your information is verified through them before the card purchase is processed. We may also use the information we collect to occasionally notify you about important changes to our website, new services, and special offers we think you will find valuable. If you would rather not receive this information, just e-mail our webmaster to remove your email from the newsletter.

With Whom Do We Share Your Information?

Hylandsolar.com does not sell, trade, or rent your personal information to others. Period.

How Do We Protect Your Information?

Hylandsolar.com is committed to protecting the information you provide us. We use our merchant site during checkout to ensure your information is protected. The security of your information, transactions, and money is the core of our business and our top priority. Our cart merchant system automatically encrypts your confidential information in transit from your computer to ours using the Secure Sockets Layer protocol (SSL) with an encryption key length of 128 bits (the highest level commercially available). Before you even register or log in to our site, our server checks that you are using an approved browser - one that uses SSL 3.0 or higher. Once your information reaches our merchant, it stays on a server that is heavily guarded both physically and electronically. Merchant servers sit behind an electronic firewall and are never directly connected to the internet, so your private information stays private. Whenever you shop online, make sure whe you enter private information that you see the https:// instead of the standard http://. That is the first clue to show that your information will be secure.

Return Information

We want you to be 100% satisfied with your purchase, and are confident that you will be.

To receive a refund/exchange from us, items must be returned within 10 days, with shipping and insurance prepaid (sorry, no C.O.D's can be accepted). Unfortunately, shipping fees cannot be refunded, unless it's for some reason a wrong product, or an error on our part. Before returning any item, please use our contact form to request a Return Merchandise Authorization (RMA) number. No returns of any type will be accepted without an RMA# (which is valid for 10 days). Some of our products are offered with free shipping, so please note if you return a product that has free shipping the actual outbound shipping costs will be deducted from your return refund.

Damaged/Broken Products

In the event that your products were damaged during transit, we ask that you keep the entire original package, packaging material and containers for later inspection. If the driver of the delivery agent is present during delivery, please note the damage in full detail on the delivery receipt. Even if the package appears to be slightly damaged please note this when you sign for delivery. Some products, especially our tubular skylights and solar attic fans are very fragile, even knowing we package our contents to prevent damage during shipping, it does happen from time to time. Please Notify us immediately so that we can solve the situation for you and get you the product in your hands as soon as possible. Before returning any item, you must first email or call our customer service department for a Return Merchandise Authorization (RMA) number. No returns of any type will be accepted without an RMA number. Please don't throw away or alter any of the product and packaging, it must be in the same condition as it was received in order for us to properly establish that the damage was due to shipping, and not due to some other cause. We will not accept claims for shipping damage if any of the packaging or contents have been altered or discarded.
