Privacy Policy

We are committed to protecting your privacy and acknowledge that you may have concerns about the use of personal information. With our statement, we aim to explain how we use the information we have collected from our visitors or members.

Collected Information

Identifiable personal information is that which identifies you as an individual, such as your name, postal address, telephone number, email address, credit card information, and password. We may collect identifiable personal information from you when you make a purchase, register to become a member, voluntarily provide it when using the site, disclose it in a public area of the site (such as submitting a newsletter request), or provide it when communicating with us.

Non-identifiable personal information is that which does not identify you as an individual. Non-identifiable personal information includes data such as browser type, the URL of the previous website you visited, the web pages and ads you view or select, and the types of services you use.

Use of information

On this site, we collect and store certain types of information that you provide to us through our website, surveys, or other data collection methods. This information includes contact, demographic, and financial data. We use contact and demographic information to communicate effectively with you and create a more personalized shopping experience. We may also use the identifiable personal information you provide to manage and administer your account, pay commissions, include you in mailing lists, and advertise and promote our services. Additionally, we may disclose your identifiable personal information when we believe in good faith that it is required by any applicable law or legal process, or if we believe it is necessary to disclose it to protect or enforce our rights or the rights of our members, users, or other third parties. Without limitation of the foregoing, we may disclose your information in accordance with our Intellectual Property Rights Policy to a third party who alleges that you have infringed their intellectual property rights.

We may disclose non-identifiable information in connection with improving the services we offer and facilitating our marketing efforts. Additionally, we may combine your non-identifiable information related to your use of the site with that of other users to determine which areas of the site are most popular and how our services are used. By collecting and analyzing this aggregated information, we can use it to improve the site. We may disclose aggregated information in connection with improving the services we offer and facilitating our marketing efforts.

Cookies

Cookies are information files that are placed on your computer’s hard drive by your browser. Cookies allow websites to remember users’ activities and visits to a site. On this site, we use cookies to determine the number of unique visitors we have on our website at any given time. Cookies are also used to remember usernames so that you do not need to log in multiple times. We do not use cookies to store or collect personal information from our visitors. You can disable cookies on your computer by indicating this in your browser’s preferences or options menus.

Embedded content from other websites

Articles on this site may include embedded content (e.g. videos, images, articles, etc.). Embedded content from other websites behaves in the exact same way as if the visitor has visited the other website.

These websites may collect data about you, use cookies, embed additional third-party tracking, and monitor your interaction with that embedded content, including tracking your interaction with the embedded content if you have an account and are logged in to that website.

Who we share your data with

If you request a password reset, your IP address will be included in the reset email.

How long we retain your data

If you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata are retained indefinitely. This is so we can recognize and approve any follow-up comments automatically instead of holding them in a moderation queue.

For users that register on our website (if any), we also store the personal information they provide in their user profile. All users can see, edit, or delete their personal information at any time (except they cannot change their username). Website administrators can also see and edit that information.

What rights you have over your data

If you have an account on this site, or have left comments, you can request to receive an exported file of the personal data we hold about you, including any data you have provided to us. You can also request that we erase any personal data we hold about you. This does not include any data we are obliged to keep for administrative, legal, or security purposes.

Where your data is sent

Visitor comments may be checked through an automated spam detection service.

Security

This site is committed to ensuring the security of your information. To help prevent unauthorized access or disclosure, maintain data accuracy, and ensure the proper use of information, we have implemented appropriate physical, electronic, and managerial procedures to protect and secure the information we collect online. We use encryption when collecting or transferring sensitive data such as credit card information. Preventing credit card fraud is important to protect the security of your personal financial data.

No Absolute Safeguards

While we will make reasonable efforts to safeguard the privacy of your information, Internet transmissions cannot be absolutely secure. Accordingly, we assume no responsibility or liability for the disclosure of any information due to errors in transmission, unauthorized access by third parties, or other causes beyond our reasonable control.

In an effort to enhance your shopping experience, we may use the contact and demographic information we have collected through our website, surveys, or other data collection methods to send you news, offers, and emails.

We do not control the privacy policies of our advertisers or other third parties who have websites linked to the site. If you click on an advertisement or link, the privacy policies of the operator of the linked website will govern the use of your information by that website. We assume no responsibility or liability for the actions of such third parties regarding the use of your information or other aspects.
