It is our sincere hope at Design Benefit Plans that what is now a purely digital relationship will evolve into a more personal one. A relationship built on trust. Our policy on privacy is simple and unwavering. And now that we've taken care of the business that our attorneys advised us had to be stated, let's get back to something more exciting, more promising: Design Benefit Plans and you.
Our Commitment To Privacy
Your privacy is important to us. To better protect your privacy we provide this Privacy Policy, which explains our online information practices and the choices you can make about the way your information is collected and used.

How We Use Information
We use return e-mail addresses to answer the e-mail we receive. We may also use these e-mail addresses to provide order status and order tracking information, and to respond to queries.
