We may collect such data for processing that is necessary for providing our services as carried out in our legitimate interests.

a. User-provided Information. When you use the Website, you may provide, and we may collect, PII. The types of information that we may collect include but are not limited to: name, address, email address, credit card information, and phone number. PII also includes other information, such as geographic areas or preferences, when any such information is linked to information that identifies a specific individual.

This “automatically collected” information may include IP address or other device address or ID, web browser and/or device type, the pages or content you view or interact with on the Website, and the dates and times of your access or use of the Website.

c. Information from Other Sources. We may obtain information, including PII, from third parties and sources other than the Website. If information from other sources is combined or associated with PII collected through the Website, this combined information will be treated as PII in accordance with this Privacy Policy. We may also receive information about you, including log and usage data and cookie information, from third-party sites that integrate our services, including embeds and advertising technology.

c. Communications. We may use PII to communicate with you for administrative purposes such as customer service, updates on policies or terms, and communication relating to services. You may opt out of receiving such communications at any time via a link in the email you receive or by contacting us as provided in the “Contact” section.

d. Advertisements. We may use third-party programmatic ad exchanges to show advertisements relevant to your interests. In providing those ads, those third parties collect information, including log and usage data and information from cookies. These third parties will not receive information from your account.

e. Cookies and Tracking Technology. We may use automatically collected information and other information collected on the Website through cookies and similar technologies to: (i) personalize Website services; (ii) monitor and analyze the effectiveness of the Website; and (iii) monitor aggregate site usage metrics such as number of visitors and pages viewed. Cookies may be either “persistent” cookies or “session” cookies.

a. Unrestricted Information. Content generated by you and posted to the Website, or any of our associated social media sites, is your sole and exclusive responsibility and we have no responsibility or liability for such content. Any information you voluntarily display to the public on the Website will be available to any individual who has access to that content. We cannot and will not guarantee the safety or security of your user generated content. Further, search engines may index your user generated content such that it may be found on and through common search engines. We cannot and will not guarantee the safety or security of your user generated content.

b. Service Providers. In some events we may work with service providers who provide website, application development, hosting, maintenance, and other services. These third parties may have access to or process PII as part of providing such services. We limit the information provided to these service providers to that which is reasonably necessary for them to perform their functions.

d. Legal Compliance. We may disclose PII or other information if required to do so by law or in the good-faith belief that such action is necessary to comply with applicable laws, in response to a valid court order, judicial or other government subpoena or warrant, or to otherwise cooperate with law enforcement or other government agencies. We also reserve the right to disclose PII or other information that we believe, in good faith, is appropriate or necessary to: (i) take precautions against liability; (ii) protect from fraudulent, abusive, or unlawful uses or activity; (iii) investigate and defend against any third-party claims or allegations; or (iv) protect our property or other legal rights, enforce our contracts, or protect the rights, property, or safety of others.

If you prefer, you can usually choose to set your browser to remove or reject first- and third-party cookies. Please note that if you choose to remove or reject cookies, this could affect the availability and functionality of some Website services.

5. Third Party Web Sites – This Privacy Policy applies only to the Website and not to the websites of partners, affiliates, or other third-parties. You may be required to accept additional policies prior to your use of links accessed through the Website. We are not responsible for the content or privacy and security practices and policies of third-party sites or services to which links or access are provided through the Website. We encourage you to learn about third parties’ privacy and security policies before providing them with information.

6. Third Party Servers – Certain information stored or transmitted by us hereunder, including PII, may be stored, managed, or otherwise handled by third parties. You understand and agree that we are not liable, accountable, or otherwise responsible for information communicated to or through third party servers and you hereby release us from any associated liability or responsibility consistent with the indemnifications, liability limitations, and privacy policy included herein. If you are located in the European Union or European Economic Area, please note that we will not transfer your information, including PII, to a country outside of the European Union or European Economic Area.

7. Data Security – We follow generally accepted standards to protect the information submitted to us, both during transmission and once we receive it. Credit card transactions and order fulfillment processed through the Website may be handled by established third party banking institutions and processing agents. We maintain appropriate administrative, technical, and physical safeguards to protect PII against accidental or unlawful destruction, accidental loss, unauthorized alteration, unauthorized disclosure or access, misuse, and any other unlawful form of processing of the PII in our possession. This may include, for example, firewalls, SSL technology, application-layer security features, password protection, and other access and authentication controls. However, no method of transmission over the Internet, or method of electronic storage, is 100% secure. We cannot ensure or warrant the security of any information you transmit to us and you do so at your own risk. We also cannot guarantee that such information may not be accessed, disclosed, altered, or destroyed by breach of any of our physical, technical, or managerial safeguards. If you believe your PII has been compromised, please contact us at the address provided in the “Contact” section. If we learn of a security systems breach, we will inform you and the authorities of the occurrence of the breach in accordance with applicable law.

8. Data Retention – We only retain the PII collected from you for a limited period of time as long as we need such data to fulfill the purposes for which it was initially collected, unless otherwise required by law. If you delete your account, your account information will be deleted. It may take additional time for your personal data to be de-indexed from search engines, depending on those search engines’ practices, over which we may have limited or no control. We will retain and use information as necessary to comply with legal obligations, resolution of disputes, and enforcement of our agreements.

9. EU-US Privacy – We make all best reasonable efforts to comply with the EU General Data Protection Regulation framework as set forth by the European Union regarding the collection, use, and retention of personal data from European Union member countries. We adhere to the requirements of notice, choice, onward transfer, security, data integrity, access, and enforcement. We are hosted in the United States and by using the Website you authorize us to transfer, store, and use your PII in the United States and any other country where we operate. Users in the European Economic Area have the right to request access to, rectification of, or erasure of their personal data; to data portability in certain circumstances; to request restriction of processing; to object to processing; and to withdraw consent for processing where they have previously provided consent. These rights can be exercised by contacting us as set forth in the “Contact” section.
