The information we collect includes:

  • Log and Usage Data. Log and usage data is service-related, diagnostic, usage, and performance information our servers automatically collect when you access or visit our website and which we record in log files. Depending on how you interact with us, this log data may include your IP address, device information, browser type, and your activity on website (such as the date/time stamps associated with your usage, pages and files viewed, searches, and links clicked).
  • Device Data. We collect device data such as information about your computer, phone, tablet, or other device you use to access our website. Depending on the device used, this device data may include information such as your IP address, device and application identification numbers, location, browser type, hardware model, internet service provider and/or mobile carrier, operating system configuration information.
  • Location Data. We collect location data such as information about your device’s location, which can be either precise or imprecise. How much information we collect depends on the type and settings of the device you use to access the website.

However, if you choose to opt out, you may not be able to use certain features.

2. How Do We Process Your Information?

We process your information to provide, improve, and administer our services, communicate with you, for security and fraud prevention, and to comply with law. We may also process your information for other purposes with your consent.

3. What Legal Bases Do We Rely on To Process Your Information?

We only process your personal information when we believe it is necessary and we have a valid legal reason to do so under applicable law, like with your consent, to comply with laws, to provide you with services to enter into or fulfill our contractual obligations, to protect your rights, or to fulfill our legitimate business interests.

4. When and With Whom Do We Share Your Personal Information?

We may share your information with third-parity vendors, service providers, contractors, or agents who perform services for us or on our behalf and require access to such information to do that work. The categories of third parties we may share information with are as follows:

  • Order Fulfillment Service Providers
  • Digital Advertising Platforms
  • Data Analytics Services
  • Customer Relationship Management Tools

We will only keep your personal information for as long as it is necessary for the purposes set out in this privacy notice, unless a longer retention period is required or permitted by law (such as tax, accounting, or other legal requirements). No purpose in this notice will require us keeping your personal information for longer than the period of time in which users have an account with us.

When we have no ongoing legitimate business need to process your personal information, we will either delete or anonymize such information, or, if this is not possible (for example, because your personal information has been stored in backup archives), then we will securely store your personal information and isolate it from any further processing until deletion is possible.

8. How Do We Keep Your Information Safe?

We have implemented appropriate and reasonable technical and organizational security measures designed to protect the security of any personal information we process. However, despite our safeguards and efforts to secure your information, no electronic transmission over the Internet or information storage technology can be guaranteed to be 100% secure, so we cannot promise or guarantee that hackers, cybercriminals, or other unauthorized third parties will not be able to defeat our security and improperly collect, access, steal, or modify your information. Although we will do our best to protect your personal information, transmission of personal information to and from our website and services is at your own risk. You should only access the services within a secure environment.
