All email we send to you includes an “unsubscribe” link at the bottom of each email. If you no longer wish to receive emails from Jam Approved, please click the unsubscribe link included in the footer of all our emails; this will take you to an online form where you will be given a menu of choices regarding our communications and for opting out of receiving further communications, including emails, from us.

Should you no longer wish to receive our catalogs or other mail from us, you can go to the Jam Approved Website, scroll to the bottom of the page, and click on “Contact Us” under the “Customer Care” column; this will take you to a page with a form that you can complete.

To double-check for security, look at the URL or location line of your browser. If you have accessed a secure server, the first characters of the address in that line should change from "http" to "https."

If for any reason you cannot access the secure server, or if you're not quite comfortable shopping online, please feel free to place your order by emailing our Customer Care representatives at help@jamapproved.com. Some browsers and firewalls do not permit communication through secure servers.
