Additionally, it elucidates the options available to you regarding the use of your Personal Information and delineates how you can access and update this information. By accessing and utilizing the Website and Services, you acknowledge that you have read, comprehended, and consented to be bound by the stipulations of this Agreement. Please note that this Policy does not apply to the practices of companies not owned or controlled by us, or to individuals not employed or managed by us.

Upon accessing the Website, our servers automatically log information transmitted by your browser. Such data may encompass details like your device’s IP address, browser type and version, operating system type and version, language preferences, the webpage visited prior to accessing the Website and Services, pages viewed, duration of visit on each page, searched information, access times and dates, and other statistical data. The information collected automatically serves the purpose of identifying potential instances of abuse and generating statistical insights into the usage and traffic patterns of the Website and Services.

While you can navigate and utilize the Website and Services without disclosing your identity or any information that could identify you as an individual, certain features may necessitate the provision of specific Personal Information, such as your name and email address. Any information you knowingly provide to us, whether during a purchase or by completing online forms on the Website, is received and stored by us. This information may include personal details such as name and country of residence, as well as contact information such as email address and physical address. While some information is directly collected from you via the Website and Services, we may also obtain Personal Information about you from other sources, such as public databases and joint marketing partners.

To facilitate the availability of the Website and Services to you and to comply with legal obligations, we collect and utilize certain Personal Information. Failure to provide requested information may result in us being unable to furnish the products or services requested. The information collected may be utilized for various purposes, including but not limited to creating and managing user accounts, fulfilling and managing orders, delivering products or services, improving products and services, sending administrative information, sending marketing and promotional communications, responding to inquiries and providing support, soliciting user feedback, enhancing user experience, posting customer testimonials, delivering targeted advertising, administering prize draws and competitions, enforcing terms and conditions and policies, protecting against abuse and malicious users, responding to legal requests, preventing harm, and running and operating the Website and Services. The processing of your Personal Information is contingent upon factors such as your interaction with the Website and Services, your geographical location, and the applicability of specific legal frameworks.

Note: Under certain legal frameworks, we may be authorized to process information until you object to such processing (via opt-out), without necessitating reliance on consent or any other legal basis. We remain available to clarify the specific legal basis applicable to the processing of Personal Information, including whether the provision of Personal Information is mandatory or contractual, or necessary to enter into a contract.

We engage third-party payment processors to facilitate the secure processing of your payment information. The utilization of your Personal Information by such third-party processors is subject to their respective privacy policies, which may or may not provide privacy protections on par with those outlined in this Policy. We advise you to review their respective privacy policies for further clarification.

Depending on the services requested or as necessary to fulfil any transaction or provide any service requested by you, we may engage other companies and share your information with your consent, as well as with our trusted third-party service providers, affiliates, and subsidiaries involved in the operation of the Website and Services. We do not share Personal Information with unaffiliated third parties. These service providers are authorized to utilize or disclose your information solely for the purpose of rendering services on our behalf or complying with legal obligations. Personal Information is shared with third parties whose privacy policies align with ours or who consent to adhere to our policies regarding Personal Information. These third parties are provided with Personal Information solely to enable them to perform their designated functions, and are not authorized to utilize or disclose Personal Information for their own marketing purposes or other unrelated purposes.

We retain and utilize your Personal Information for the duration required to comply with legal obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce agreements, unless a longer retention period is mandated or permitted by law. Following the expiration of the retention period, Personal Information is deleted. Consequently, rights such as access, erasure, rectification, and data portability cannot be exercised after the expiration of the retention period.

Data transfers may entail the transmission and storage of your information in a country other than your own, contingent upon your location. You are entitled to be informed about the legal grounds for information transfers to countries outside the European Union or to any international organizations governed by public international law or established by two or more countries (e.g., the UN), as well as the security measures implemented by us to safeguard your information. In the event of such transfers, you may obtain further information by referring to the pertinent sections of this Policy or by contacting us using the information provided in the contact section.

The Website and Services utilize “cookies” to personalize online experiences. Cookies are text files placed on your hard disk by a web server and are unique to each user. They are used for statistical purposes to operate the Website and Services. Users have the option to accept or decline cookies through their browser settings. For further information on cookies and how to manage them, users can visit internetcookies.org.

Some browsers include a Do Not Track feature, indicating to visited websites the user’s preference not to be tracked online. While tracking differs from using or collecting information in connection with a website, our Website and Services do not track users over time and across third-party websites. However, third-party websites may track user browsing activities to customize content presented to them.

Certain third-party companies assist us in tailoring advertising that may be of interest to users and collecting and using additional data on user activities on the Website. These companies may deliver ads that may utilize cookies and track user behaviour.

We offer electronic newsletters that users may voluntarily subscribe to at any time. Users’ email addresses are kept confidential and are not disclosed to third parties except as permitted under this Policy or for the purpose of utilizing a third-party provider to send such emails. Email information is maintained in compliance with applicable laws and regulations. In accordance with the CAN-SPAM Act, all emails sent from us will clearly state the sender’s identity and provide clear instructions on how to contact the sender. Users may opt out of receiving our newsletters or marketing emails at any time by following the unsubscribe instructions provided in the emails or by contacting us. However, users will continue to receive essential transactional emails.

The Website and Services may contain links to external resources not owned or controlled by us. We are not responsible for the privacy practices of such resources or third parties. Users are encouraged to be vigilant when leaving the Website and Services and to review the privacy statements of each resource collecting Personal Information.

We employ measures to secure information provided on our computer servers in a controlled, secure environment to protect it from unauthorized access, use, or disclosure. Reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards are maintained to protect against unauthorized access, use, modification, and disclosure of Personal Information within our control and custody. However, no transmission of data over the Internet or wireless network can be entirely guaranteed to be secure. Users acknowledge that (i) the security and privacy limitations of the Internet are beyond our control; (ii) the security, integrity, and privacy of information exchanged between users and the Website and Services cannot be guaranteed; and (iii) such information may be viewed or tampered with in transit by a third party despite our best efforts.

In the event we become aware of a compromise of the security of the Website and Services or the disclosure of users’ Personal Information to unrelated third parties due to external activities such as security breaches or fraud, we reserve the right to take reasonably appropriate actions. Such actions may include but are not limited to investigation, reporting, and cooperation with law enforcement authorities. In the event of a data breach where there is a reasonable risk of harm to users or if notification is otherwise mandated by law, we will make reasonable efforts to notify affected individuals, either by posting a notice on the Website or by sending an email.

We retain the right to modify this Policy or its terms regarding the Website and Services at our discretion. Users will be notified of any significant changes in the way we handle Personal Information. Updated versions of this Policy will be effective immediately upon posting, unless otherwise specified. Continued use of the Website and Services following the effective date of the revised Policy constitutes users’ consent to the changes. However, Personal Information will not be utilized in a manner substantially different from that stated at the time of collection without users’ consent.

By accessing and utilizing the Website and Services, users acknowledge that they have read, understood, and agreed to all terms and conditions outlined in this Policy. Failure to consent to the terms of this Policy renders users unauthorized to access or utilize the Website and Services.
