PERSONAL INFORMATION

Personal Information Collected and How It Is Used

Personally identifiable information is information that allows you to be identified or contacted individually, including your name, email address, phone number, physical address or mailing address. Except for content available only for users who have established a user account, we do not require you to submit personally identifiable information to use Our Web Properties. Our Web Properties do not collect any personally identifiable information from you unless you provide it.

Personally identifiable information may be collected when you establish a user account, place an order through the online shop, complete any online form, application, survey, or request for information, or when you post comments on our blog or otherwise submit information. Therefore, if you do not wish for us to obtain your personally identifiable information, please do not submit it to us. Some portions or features of Our Web Properties may not be available, however, unless you do provide the necessary personally identifiable information.

Personally identifiable information may be collected from you at the point of purchase. To buy from us, you must provide contact information, including your name and shipping address, and financial information, including your credit card data. This payment information is only used for billing purposes and to fill your orders. Wherever we collect sensitive information like credit card data, that information is encrypted and securely to our third party payment processor to process payments made to us. We do not retain, share, store, or use this information beyond filling your order. Currently, our payment processor is Stripe. Stripe uses this payment information in accordance with its privacy policy, which may be viewed at [https://stripe.com/privacy].

If we collect any personally identifiable information, such as your name, address, phone number, or email address, or any non-identifiable personal information, such as your zip code or location, it is only with your knowledge or consent. For example, you might submit personal information in the following circumstances:

USE OF PERSONAL INFORMATION

Information Sharing and Disclosure

We will not license, sell, rent, or share your personally identifiable information with any third party without your consent, except as set forth in this policy.

If you give us personally identifiable information, you consent to the use and disclosure of that information in accordance with our Privacy Policy.

Personal information you provide us may be used by us as follows:

We may use information you provide to us to provide the services and customer support you request, resolve disputes, troubleshoot problems, and generally assist us in operating our business to continue to provide our products and services.

If you submit an inquiry or comments, the personally identifiable information you provide us may be used to provide you with a response or to otherwise contact you.

In response to legal requirements such as properly served law enforcement demands, court orders, subpoenas, and the like.

For online and offline marketing, unless you opt out. This means that you will be given an option when receiving marketing or advertising material by email or regular mail to opt out from receiving further such communications. You may also opt-out by emailing [email protected]. Some requests to opt-out may take some time to process and, because some communications are often prepared well in advance, a request may not become immediately effective for all communications.

We may use information you provide to us to send you information or to invite you to communicate with us.

By submitting or posting content you give us a perpetual, irrevocable, worldwide, royalty-free, and non-exclusive license to reproduce, adapt, modify, translate, publish, publicly perform, publicly display and distribute any content which you submit, post or display on or through, Our Web Properties.

However, this does not apply to personally identifiable information, such as your name, email address, physical address or mailing address.

Other Internal Uses

In addition to the uses outlined above, we may internally use your personally identifiable information to establish and verify your identity if you submit information to us, provide services and support to visitors to Our Web Properties, improve Our Web Properties and tailor them to your preferences, provide you with updates, promotions, and other information about us, and maintain the security and integrity of our systems.

Information Storage

Your information is stored on servers located in the United States. We treat data as an asset that must be protected and use standard industry procedures to protect your personal information against unauthorized access and disclosure. However, third parties may unlawfully intercept or access transmissions or private communications, and other users may abuse or misuse your personal information that they collect from the site. Therefore, although we work very hard to protect your privacy, we do not promise, and you should not expect, that your personal information or private communications will always remain private.

SHARING INFORMATION

We employ other companies and individuals to perform functions on our behalf, such as entities providing billing, customer support, analytics, hosting, marketing, and similar services. They have access to only the personal information needed to perform their functions but may not use it for other purposes and have agreed to protect the information from disclosure.

Other than as described in this policy, we will not disclose your personally identifiable information to any third parties without your permission unless required by law to do so, and we will provide you with the intended use of the information before you give us permission to share your personally identifiable information with third parties.
