Privacy Policy
- General information
- When you use our web
site services, you trust us with your information. This Privacy
Policy is meant to help you understand what data we collect, why we
collect it, and what we do with it. When you share information with
us, we can make our services even better for you. For instance, we
can show you more relevant search results and ads, help you connect
with people or to make sharing with others quicker and easier. As
you use our services, we want you to be clear how we?re using
information and the ways in which you can protect your privacy.
This is important; we hope you will take time to read it carefully.
Remember, you can find controls to manage your information and
protect your privacy and security. We?ve tried to keep it as simple
as possible.
- Right to access, correct and delete data and to object to
data processing
- Our customers have the right to access, correct and delete
personal data relating to them, and to object to the processing of
such data, by addressing a written request, at any time. The
Company makes every effort to put in place suitable precautions to
safeguard the security and privacy of personal data, and to prevent
it from being altered, corrupted, destroyed or accessed by
unauthorized third parties. However, the Company does not control
each and every risk related to the use of the Internet, and
therefore warns the Site users of the potential risks involved in
the functioning and use of the Internet. The Site may include links
to other web sites or other internet sources. As the Company cannot
control these web sites and external sources, the Company cannot be
held responsible for the provision or display of these web sites
and external sources, and may not be held liable for the content,
advertising, products, services or any other material available on
or from these web sites or external sources.
- Management of personal data
- You can view or edit your personal data online for many of
our services. You can also make choices about our collection and
use of your data. How you can access or control your personal data
will depend on which services you use. You can choose whether you
wish to receive promotional communications from our web site by
email, SMS, physical mail, and telephone. If you receive
promotional email or SMS messages from us and would like to opt
out, you can do so by following the directions in that message. You
can also make choices about the receipt of promotional email,
telephone calls, and postal mail by visiting and signing into
Company Promotional Communications Manager, which allows you to
update contact information, manage contact preferences, opt out of
email subscriptions, and choose whether to share your contact
information with our partners. These choices do not apply to
mandatory service communications that are part of certain web site
services.
- Information We Collect
- Our store collects data to operate effectively and provide
you the best experiences with our services. You provide some of
this data directly, such as when you create a personal account. We
get some of it by recording how you interact with our services by,
for example, using technologies like cookies, and receiving error
reports or usage data from software running on your device. We also
obtain data from third parties (including other companies). For
example, we supplement the data we collect by purchasing
demographic data from other companies. We also use services from
other companies to help us determine a location based on your IP
address in order to customize certain services to your location.
The data we collect depends on the services and features you use.
- How We Use Your Information
- Our web site uses the data we collect for three basic
purposes: to operate our business and provide (including improving
and personalizing) the services we offer, to send communications,
including promotional communications, and to display advertising.
In carrying out these purposes, we combine data we collect through
the various web site services you use to give you a more seamless,
consistent and personalized experience. However, to enhance
privacy, we have built in technological and procedural safeguards
designed to prevent certain data combinations. For example, we
store data we collect from you when you are unauthenticated (not
signed in) separately from any account information that directly
identifies you, such as your name, email address or phone number.
- Sharing Your Information
-
We share your personal data with your consent or as necessary to
complete any transaction or provide any service you have requested
or authorized. For example, we share your content with third
parties when you tell us to do so. When you provide payment data to
make a purchase, we will share payment data with banks and other
entities that process payment transactions or provide other
financial services, and for fraud prevention and credit risk
reduction. In addition, we share personal data among our controlled
affiliates and subsidiaries. We also share personal data with
vendors or agents working on our behalf for the purposes described
in this statement. For example, companies we've hired to provide
customer service support or assist in protecting and securing our
systems and services may need access to personal data in order to
provide those functions. In such cases, these companies must abide
by our data privacy and security requirements and are not allowed
to use personal data they receive from us for any other purpose. We
may also disclose personal data as part of a corporate transaction
such as a merger or sale of assets.
