ADVERTISING ON THE SITE AND OTHER WEBSITES

We also work with licensors, service providers and partner with advertising companies that use cookies, web beacons and other tools to collect information about your visits to and behavior on our Website and other websites, and then use that information to deliver targeted advertisements to you across the internet. To learn more about this practice and your choices with respect to it, please visit the Network Advertising Initiative at www.networkadvertising.org and the Digital Advertising Alliance at www.aboutads.info. To opt-out of some of our advertising partners’ use of cookies in this manner, visit http://www.networkadvertising.org/managing/opt_out.asp.

We maintain relationships with several social networks and technology companies, including, Facebook, Google. Pinterest, and Instagram. These companies have specific Interest-Based Ads programs that match people that have shown interest in the Company through our websites, stores or other services with their profiles on their platforms and properties. If we participate in these programs, we convert your personal information (via hashing, encryption or other similar mechanisms) into a unique, non-personally identifiable value that cannot be re-identified and which can then be matched by the partner company with a user on their platform. This matching allows us to deliver more relevant, interest-based ads to users of those other companies’ platforms. You can manage your preferences for these advertising programs by clicking on the following relevant link: here.

Note, that to the extent we maintain and use personal information in a deidentified form, we will not attempt to reidentify the information, except for the purpose of determining whether our deidentification processes satisfy our legal obligations.

Some web browsers and devices permit you to broadcast a preference that you not be "tracked" online. At this time, we do not modify your experience based on “Do Not Track” signals.

USE OF COOKIES

A cookie is a text file that is placed on your computer or other mobile device when you access the Website. Cookies enable us to quickly retrieve specific information from previous visits to our Website and to recall features that you may have customized on your browser.

RETENTION OF YOUR INFORMATION

We will keep your personal information as long as it is reasonably necessary to fulfil the purposes for which it was collected. However, in some circumstances we may retain your personal information for longer, for instance where required to do so in accordance with legal, tax and accounting requirements. In specific circumstances we may retain your personal information for longer periods of time so that we have an accurate record of your dealings with us in the event of any complaints or challenges. Further, as described in the “Information Disclosure” section above, your information may be considered a transferred asset as a part of an agreement between our partners.

SECURITY

The Company employs reasonable measures designed to maintain all personal information provided by you on computer servers in a controlled and secured environment in an effort to prevent unauthorized access, loss, alteration, use or disclosure of such information. Unfortunately, the nature of the internet is such that information may be transmitted over networks without appropriate security measures and may be accessed, deleted, altered, used or disclosed by unauthorized persons at that time. In the event that we are required by law to inform you of a breach to your personal information we may notify you electronically, in writing, or by telephone, if permitted to do so by law.

Because of the international nature of the services and products we provide on our Website and the nature of our business, personal information may, subject to applicable law, be transferred internationally for the purposes described above. This may mean that personal information is transferred to countries which have different requirements for protecting personal information.

Note that to protect our customers from fraudulent transactions on our Website, all orders are subject to review and verification. As part of the verification process, an order may be temporarily placed on hold in order to verify order information. This includes, but is not limited to, credit card billing information, which may involve contacting the credit card holder directly.

MODIFICATIONS TO THIS POLICY

The Company may make modifications or amendments to this Policy from time to time. In the event that such changes alter how we gather, process, use, or disclose your personal information, we will post such changes on our Website.
