This notice applies to the personal data collected through our Website, regardless of the country where you are located.

The Website may include links to third-party websites, plug-ins, services, social networks, or applications. Clicking on those links or enabling those connections may allow the third party to collect or share data about you. We don’t control these third-party websites, and we encourage you to read the privacy notice of every website you visit.

Data We May Collect About You

We collect and use different types of data from and about you, including:

• Personal data that we could reasonably use to directly or indirectly identify you, such as your name, postal address, email address, telephone number, user name, or another similar identifier we may use to contact you online or offline (”personal data”).
•  Non-personal data that does not directly or indirectly reveal your identity or directly relate to an identified individual, such as demographic information, statistics, or aggregated information. Statistical or aggregated data does not directly identify a specific person, but we may derive non-personal statistical or aggregated data from personal data. For example, we may aggregate personal data to calculate the percentage of users accessing a specific Website feature.
• Non-personal details about your Website interactions, including the full Uniform Resource Locators (URLs), clickstream information to, through, and from our Website (including date and time), products viewed or searched for; page response times, download errors, length of visits to certain pages, page interaction information (such as scrolling, clicks, and mouse-overs), or methods used to browse away from the page.

If we combine or connect non-personal, demographic, or technical data with personal data so that it directly or indirectly identifies an individual, we treat the combined information as personal data.

How We Collect Data About You

We use different methods to collect data from and about you including through:

• Direct interactions. You may give us information about you by filling in forms or by corresponding with us by phone, email, or otherwise. This includes information you provide when you create an account, subscribe to our service, search for a product, place an order, participate in discussion boards or other social media functions on our Website, enter a competition, promotion, or survey, call our customer service number, and when you report a problem with our Website.
• Automated technologies or interactions. As you interact with our Website, we may automatically collect technical data about your equipment, browsing actions, and patterns as specified above. We collect this information using cookies, server logs, and similar technologies (see Cookies and Automatic Data Collection Technologies).
• Third parties or publicly available sources. We may receive information about you (if you visit other websites employing our cookies or from third parties including, for example, business partners, sub-contractors in technical, payment, and delivery services, advertising networks, analytics providers, search information providers, credit reference agencies, data brokers, or aggregators).
• User contributions. You also may provide information for us to publish or display (”post”) on public Website areas or transmit to other Website users or third parties (collectively, “User Contributions”). You submit User Contributions for posting and transmission to others at your own risk. Although we limit access to certain pages, you may set specific privacy settings for User Contributions by logging into your account profile. Please be aware that no security measures are perfect or impenetrable. Additionally, we can’t control the actions of any Website users with whom you choose to share your User Contributions. Therefore, we can’t guarantee that unauthorized persons won’t view your User Contributions.

Cookies and Automatic Data Collection Technologies

Our Website uses cookies (small files placed on your device) or other automatic data collection technologies to distinguish you from other Website users. This helps us deliver a better and more personalized service when you browse our Website. It also allows us to improve our Website by enabling us to:

• Estimate our audience size and usage patterns.
• Store your preferences, so we may customize our Website according to your interests.
• Speed up your searches.
• Recognize you when you return to our Website.

We also may use these technologies to collect information about your online activities over time and across third-party websites or other online services (behavioral tracking).

You may refuse to accept browser Cookies by activating the appropriate setting on your browser. However, if you select this setting, certain parts of our Website may become inaccessible, and certain features may not work correctly. Unless you adjust your browser settings to refuse cookies, our system will issue them. 

Certain website features may use Flash cookies (locally stored objects) instead of browser cookies to collect and store information about your preferences and navigation to, from, and on our Website. Flash cookies and browser cookies use different management tools, and you need to manage their settings separately.

For information about managing your Flash cookie privacy and security settings, see Your Personal Data Use Choices.

Our Website pages (and emails) may contain web beacons (small transparent embedded images or objects, also known as clear gifs, pixel tags, and single-pixel gifs) that permit us, for example, to count website page visitors (or email readers), or to compile other similar statistics such as recording Website content popularity or verifying system and server integrity.

Third-Party Use of Cookies (and Other Tracking Technologies)

Some content or applications, including advertisements, on the Website, are served by third parties, including advertisers, ad networks and servers, content providers, and application providers. These third parties may use cookies alone or in conjunction with web beacons or other tracking technologies to collect information about you when you use our Website. They may associate the information collected with your personal data, or they may collect information, including personal data, about your online activities over time and across different websites or other online services. They may use this information to provide you with interest-based (behavioral) advertising or other targeted content.

We don’t control how these third-party tracking technologies operate or how they may use the collected data. You should contact the responsible provider directly if you have any questions about an advertisement or other targeted content.

For information about how to opt out of targeted advertising from many providers, see Your Personal Data Use Choices.

How We Use Your Personal Data

We use your personal data to provide products, offer services, communicate with you, deliver advertising and marketing, or conduct other business operations, such as using data to improve and personalize your experiences. Examples of how we may use the personal data we collect include to:

• Present our Website and provide you with the information, products, services, and support you request from us.
• Meet our obligations and enforce our rights arising from any contracts with you, including for billing or collections, or comply with legal requirements.
• Fulfil the purposes for which you provided the data or that were described when it was collected.
• Notify you about changes to our Website, products, or services.
• Ensure that we present our Website content most effectively for you and your computer.
• Administer our Website and conduct internal operations for troubleshooting, data analysis, testing, research, statistical, and survey purposes.
• Improve our Website, products or services, marketing, or customer relationships and experiences.
• Enable your participation in our Website’s interactive, social media, or other similar features.
• Protect our Website, employees, or operations.
• Measure or understand the effectiveness of the advertising we serve to you and others and deliver relevant advertising to you;
• Make suggestions and recommendations to you and other users of our Website about goods or services that may interest you or them.

We may use personal data to enable us to display advertisements to our advertisers’ target audiences. Even though we don’t disclose your personal data for these purposes without your consent, if you click on or interact with an advertisement, the advertiser may assume that you meet its target criteria.

We may use non-personal data for any business purpose.

Disclosure of Your Personal Data

We may share your personal data with:

• Any corporate group member, which means our subsidiaries, our ultimate holding company and its subsidiaries, and our affiliates.
• Business partners, suppliers, service providers, sub-contractors, and other third parties we use to support our business (such as analytics and search engine providers that assist us with Website improvement and optimization). We contractually require these third parties to keep that personal data confidential and use it only for contracted purposes.
• Third parties to market their products or services to you if you have consented to/not opted out of these disclosures. We contractually require these third parties to keep that personal data confidential and use it only for contracted purposes. For more information, see Your Personal Data Use Choices.
• Advertisers and advertising networks that require the data to select and serve relevant ads to you and others. We don’t disclose data about identifiable individuals to our advertisers. Still, we may provide them with aggregate information about our users (for example, we may inform them that 500 men under 30 have clicked on their advertisement on any given day). We may also use such aggregate information to help advertisers reach the kind of audience they want to target (for example, women in a specific location). We may use the personal data we have collected from you to enable us to comply with our advertisers’ wishes by displaying their advertisement(s) to that target audience.
• Credit reference agencies when required to assess your credit score before entering into a contract with you.
• To fulfill the purpose for which you provide it. For example, if you give us an email address to use the “email a friend” feature of our Website, we will transmit the contents of that email and your email address to the recipients.

For any other purposes, we disclose (in writing) when you provide the data. With your consent.

We may also disclose your personal data to third parties:

• If we sell or buy any business or assets, we may disclose your personal data to the prospective seller or buyer of such business or assets.
• To a buyer or other successor in the event of a merger, divestiture, restructuring, reorganization, dissolution, or other sale or transfer of some or all of our assets, whether as a going concern or as part of bankruptcy, liquidation, or similar proceeding, where one of the transferred assets is the personal data we hold.
• To comply with any court order, law, or legal process, including responding to any government or regulatory request.
• To enforce or apply our terms and conditions of supply and other agreements.
• To protect the rights, property, or safety of our business, employees, customers, or others. This includes exchanging information with other companies and organizations for cybersecurity, fraud protection, and credit risk reduction.

We may share non-personal data without restriction.

Consent to Personal Data Transfer

We’re based in the United States. We may process, store, and transfer the personal data we collect, in and to a country outside your own, with different privacy laws that may or may not be as comprehensive as yours. 

By submitting your personal data or engaging with our Websites, you consent to this transfer, storing, or processing.

Data Security

The security of your personal data is important to us. We use physical, electronic, and administrative safeguards to protect your personal data from loss, misuse, and unauthorized access, use, alteration, or disclosure. We store all personal data you provide to us behind firewalls on servers employing security protections. Payments use advanced online encryption and maintain the strictest PCI compliance standards.

The safety and security of your information also depends on you. Where we have given you (or where you have chosen) a password for access to certain parts of our Website, you’re responsible for keeping this password confidential. We ask you not to share your password with anyone. We urge you to take care when providing information in public areas of the Website, like message boards, which any Website visitor can view.

Unfortunately, the transmission of information via the internet is not completely secure. Although we do our best to protect your personal data, we can’t guarantee the security of your personal data transmitted to our Website. Any transmission of personal data is at your own risk. We are not responsible for the circumvention of any privacy settings or security measures contained on the Website.
