Our privacy policy tells you what Personally Identifiable Information (PII) and Nonpersonal Information (NPI) we may collect from you, how we collect it, how we protect it, how we may share it, how you can access and change it, and how you can limit it. Our privacy policy also explains certain legal rights you have regarding your PII. Any capitalized terms not defined herein will have the same meaning as those described elsewhere on our website.

DEFINITIONS

‘Nonpersonal Information’ (NPI) is information that is in no way personally identifiable. Some NPI is obtained automatically when you access our website with a web browser. ‘Personally Identifiable Information’ (PII) is information that is personally identifiable to you and brought for us to provide you with a product or service. PII may include your name, email address, physical address, phone number, credit card information, and other information you provide to us.

INFORMATION WE COLLECT

Generally, you control the amount and type of information you provide us when using our website. We require that you provide us with certain information so that we can provide you with services and products. If you do not provide us with enough information, we may be unable to process your order or sale. If you register as a user or member to use our website, you must provide PII for us to provide you with various features and functionality in terms of our website.

We collect your PII in the following ways:

AUTOMATIC INFORMATION

We automatically receive information from your web browser or mobile device.

We use all this information to analyze user trends to help improve our website.

USE OF COOKIES

A cookie is a small piece of data or a text file downloaded to your computer or mobile device when you access certain websites. Cookies may contain text that can be read by the web server that delivered the cookie to you. The text in the cookie generally consists of a sequence of letters and numbers that uniquely identify your computer or mobile device; it may also contain other information.

By agreeing to accept our use of cookies, you permit us to place some or all of the cookies described below on your device.

NECESSARY COOKIES

These cookies are necessary for the website’s proper functioning, such as displaying content, logging in, validating your session, responding to your request for services, and other functions. Most web browsers can be set to disable the use of cookies. However, if you disable these cookies, you may not be able to access features on our website correctly or at all.

PERFORMANCE COOKIES

These cookies collect information about the website’s use, such as visited pages, traffic sources, users’ interests, content management, and other website measurements.

FUNCTIONAL COOKIES

While using the website, these cookies enable the website to remember a user’s choices – such as their language, user name, and other personal preferences. They can also be used to deliver services, such as letting a user make a blog post, listen to audio, or watch videos on the website.

MEDIA COOKIES

These cookies can improve a website’s performance and provide special features and content. They can be placed by third parties who provide services to us or by our company.

ADVERTISING OR TARGETING COOKIES

Advertising companies usually use these cookies to develop a profile of your browsing interests and serve advertisements on other websites related to your interests. You will see less advertising if you disable these cookies.

SESSION COOKIES

These cookies allow websites to link the actions of a user during a browser session. They may be used for various purposes, such as remembering what users have put in their shopping carts as they browse a website. Session cookies also permit users to be recognized as they navigate a website so that any item or page changes are remembered from page to page. Session cookies expire after a browser session; thus, they are not stored long-term.

PERSISTENT COOKIES

These cookies are stored on a user’s device between browser sessions, allowing the user’s preferences or actions across a site (or, in some cases, across different areas) to be remembered. Persistent cookies may be used for various purposes, including remembering users’ choices and preferences when using a website or targeting advertising.

We may also use cookies for the following:

  • Identifying the areas of our website that you have visited
  • Personalizing the content you see on our website
  • Our website analytics
  • Remarketing our products or services to you
  • Remembering your preferences, settings, and login details
  • Targeted advertising and serving ads relevant to your interests
  • Affiliate marketing
  • Allowing you to post comments
  • Allowing you to share content with social networks

Most web browsers can be set to disable the use of cookies. However, if you disable cookies, you may not be able to access features on our website correctly or at all.

WEB BEACONS

We may also use a technology called web beacons to collect general information about your use of our website and your use of special promotions or newsletters. The information we collect from web beacons allows us to monitor the number of people who open our emails statistically. Web beacons also help us understand the behaviour of our customers and visitors.

GOOGLE AD AND CONTENT NETWORK PRIVACY POLICY

Third-party vendors, including Google, use cookies to serve ads based on a user’s past visits to our website. Google’s use of the DoubleClick cookie enables its partners to serve ads to our users based on their visits to our site and other sites on the Internet. Users may opt out of using the DoubleClick cookie for interest-based advertising by visiting https://www.aboutads.info/choices/.

GOOGLE ANALYTICS PRIVACY POLICY

Our website uses Google Analytics to collect information about the use of our site. Google Analytics collects information such as how often users visit our site, what pages they visit, and what other sites they have used before coming to our site. We use the information we get from Google Analytics to improve our site. Google Analytics collects only the IP address assigned to you on the date you visit our site, not your name or other identifying information. We do not combine the information collected using Google Analytics with PII. Although Google Analytics plants a permanent cookie on your web browser to identify you as a unique user the next time you visit our site, the cookie cannot be used by anyone but Google. You can prevent Google Analytics from using your information by opting out at this link:  https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout.

GOOGLE REMARKETING

Why do I see ads by Google for products I’ve viewed?

Our website uses a remarketing advertising service. Our remarketing service is provided by Google and other companies that show our ads on websites across the Internet. With remarketing, you may see ads for our products you have previously looked at. For example, suppose you visit a website that sells computers but does not buy one on your first visit. The website’s owner might encourage you to revisit their site and buy a computer by showing you their ads again on other websites you visit. We use remarketing for similar purposes, so you may see advertisements for our products as you search the Internet. For this to happen, Google or other remarketing providers will read a cookie already in your browser or place a cookie when you visit our site or other sites using remarketing. (This can only happen if your browser is set to let it happen).

You can opt out of Google’s use of cookies and remarketing at this link:  https://support.google.com/ads/answer/2662922?hl=en or you opt-out using the Network Advertising Initiative opt-out page at: https://optout.networkadvertising.org/#!/

FACEBOOK REMARKETING

Our website uses Facebook’s remarketing advertising service. With remarketing, you may see ads for our products which you have previously looked at when you use Facebook. For this to happen, Facebook uses a Custom Audience Pixel activated when a visitor lands on a webpage and a unique “cookie” is placed in their browser. To opt out of Facebook remarketing, visit https://www.facebook.com/help/568137493302217.

HOW YOUR INFORMATION IS USED

We use the information we receive from you to:

  • Provide our products and services
  • Personalize and customize our content
  • Make improvements to our website
  • Contact you with updates to our website
  • Resolve problems and disputes
  • Contact you with marketing and advertising
    that we believe may be of interest to you

When we communicate with you about our website, we will use the email address you provided when registering as a member or user. We may also send you emails with promotional information about our website or offers from us or our affiliates unless you have opted out of receiving such information. You can change your contact preferences at any time through your account or by sending us an email with your request to: [email protected]

SHARING INFORMATION WITH AFFILIATES AND OTHER THIRD PARTIES

We do not sell, rent, or provide your PII to third parties for marketing purposes. However, we may use your nonpersonal information (NPI) for data aggregation, which might be sold to other parties at our discretion. Any such data aggregation would not contain any of your PII. We may provide your PII to third-party service providers we hire to provide services to us. These third-party service providers include but are not limited to payment processors, web analytics companies (like Google Analytics), call centers, data management services, help desk providers, shopping cart and email service providers, and shipping and mailing companies.

LEGALLY REQUIRED RELEASES OF INFORMATION

We may be legally required to disclose your PII if such disclosure is (a) required by subpoena, law, or another legal process; (b) necessary to assist law enforcement officials or government enforcement agencies; (c) necessary to investigate violations of or otherwise enforce our Legal Terms; (d) necessary to protect us from legal action or claims from third parties, including you and other users or members; or (e) necessary to protect the legal rights, personal/real property, or personal safety of our company, users, employees, and affiliates.

DISCLOSURES TO SUCCESSORS

If our business is sold or merges in whole or in part with another company that would become responsible for providing the website to you, we retain the right to transfer your PII to the new company. The new company would have the right to use your PII according to the terms of this privacy policy and any changes to this privacy policy as instituted by the new business.

We also retain the right to transfer your PII if our company files for bankruptcy and some or all of our assets are sold to another individual or business.

COMMUNITY DISCUSSION BOARDS

Our website may allow users to communicate with each other through online community discussion boards. Choose to post on these discussion boards. We do not filter or monitor what is posted on such discussion boards. You should use care when exposing any PII, as our privacy policy does not protect such information, nor are we liable if you disclose your PII through such postings.

RETAINING AND DESTROYING YOUR (PII)

We retain the information we collect from you (including your PII) only for as long as we need it for legal, business, or tax purposes. Your information may be retained in electronic form, paper form, or a combination. When your information is no longer needed, we will destroy, delete, or erase it.

UPDATING, REQUESTING, AND DELETING YOUR (PII)

You can update your PII using services found on our website. If no such services exist, you can contact us using the contact information at the top of this policy, and we will help you. You have the right to request and access the type of PII we have collected from you that our company has stored in electronic or paper format. You also have the right to request that we delete any PII we have about you. If you want access to your PII, are asking to know what PII we have collected about you, or are requesting that we delete your PII, send us an email with your request to: [email protected] or contact us using our contact information at the top of this website and we will help you. However, as needed, we may keep your PII to enforce our agreements and comply with legal obligations.

FILING A COMPLAINT WITH AUTHORITIES

You have the right to file a complaint with supervisory authorities if your information has not been processed in compliance with the General Data Protection Regulation. If the supervisory authorities fail to address your complaint properly, you may have the right to a judicial remedy.

REVOKING YOUR CONSENT AND OPTING OUT OF SHARING YOUR INFORMATION

You have the right to revoke your consent for us to use your PII at any time. You can always opt out of future unaffiliated third-party disclosures of your information. Such an opt-out will not affect disclosures otherwise permitted by law, including but not limited to (i) disclosures to affiliates, (ii) disclosures to third-party service providers that provide certain services for our business, such as credit card processing, computer system services, shipping, data management, or promotional services, (iii) disclosures to third parties as necessary to fulfill your requests, (iv) disclosures to governmental agencies or law enforcement departments, or as otherwise required to be made under applicable law, (v) previously completed disclosures to third parties, or (vi) disclosures to third parties in connection with subsequent contests or promotions you may choose to enter or third-party offers you may choose to accept. If you want to opt out of unaffiliated third-party disclosures or revoke your consent for us to use your PII, send us an email with your request to: [email protected]

OBJECTING TO PROCESSING YOUR PII

You have the right to object to the processing of your PII.

PROTECTING THE PRIVACY RIGHTS OF THIRD PARTIES

If any postings on our website contain information about third parties, you must be permitted to include that information in your posting.

Some web browsers have settings that enable you to request that our website not track your movement within our website. Our website does not obey such settings when transmitted to and detected by our website. You can turn off your browser’s tracking features and other security settings by referring to your browser’s user manual.

LINKS TO OTHER WEBSITES

Our website may contain links to other websites. These websites are not under our control or subject to our privacy policy. These websites will likely have their privacy policies.

You are responsible for checking the privacy policies of these websites to see how they treat your PII.l

PROTECTING CHILDREN’S PRIVACY

Even though our website is not designed for use by anyone under 13 (child), we realize that a child under 13 may attempt to access our website. You acknowledge that we do not verify the age of our users, nor do we have any liability for doing so. We do not knowingly collect PII from children under the age of 13. Please get in touch with us if you are a parent or guardian and believe your child is using our website. If we discover a child accessing our website, we will delete their information within a reasonable period. Before we remove any information, we may ask for proof of identification to prevent malicious removal of account information.

OUR EMAIL POLICY

You can always avoid receiving further email correspondence from us or our affiliates. We will not sell, rent, or trade your email address to any unaffiliated third party without your permission except in the sale or transfer of our business.

OUR SECURITY POLICY

We have built our website using industry-standard encryption and authentication tools to protect the security of your PII. We also use technologies such as secure routers and firewalls to help protect your PII. When we collect your credit card information through our website, we encrypt it before it travels over the Internet using industry-standard technology for secure online transactions. Unfortunately, because of its nature, we cannot guarantee against the loss or misuse of your PII or secure data transmission over the Internet.

We strongly urge you to protect any password you may have for our website and not to share it with anyone. You should always log out of our website when you finish using it, especially if you are sharing or using a computer in a public place.

INTERNATIONAL DATA TRANSFERS

Information we collect from you may be stored, processed, and transferred between any countries we operate. For European customers and users, your PII may be transferred outside the European Union for us to provide the services and information you request. Wherever we transfer, process or store your PII, we will take reasonable steps to protect it. We will use the information we collect from you through this policy. By using our website or services, you agree to the transfers of your PII described in this section.

Also, the PII you post on our website for publication may be available worldwide through the Internet. We cannot prevent the use or misuse of such information by others.

CHANGES TO OUR PRIVACY POLICY

We reserve the right to change this privacy policy at any time. Suppose our company decides to modify this privacy policy. In that case, we will post those changes on our website so that our users and customers are always aware of what information we collect, use, and disclose. If we decide to disclose or use your PII in a method different from that specified when it was collected, we will provide advance notice by email (sent to the email address on file in your account). Otherwise, we will use and disclose our users’ and customers’ PII in agreement with the privacy policy in effect when the information is collected. Your continued use of our website, services, and products after any change to this privacy policy will constitute your acceptance of such change.
