1. Our Policy

We respect your right to be informed about the collection and other operations involving your personal data.

We will not process your personal data if it is possible for us to provide you with services using anonymous data (e.g., for marketing research to improve our services) or other means that do not require identifying you, unless it is absolutely necessary or in compliance with requests from supervisory authorities or law enforcement agencies (e.g., traffic data or IP address in the case of legal requests).

5. Security Measures:

We have implemented necessary security measures to protect personal data against accidental or unlawful destruction, loss, alteration, unauthorized disclosure, or access, as well as any other unauthorized data processing activities that do not comply with our Privacy Policy. However, we cannot guarantee that these security measures will completely eliminate the risk of unauthorized access or data loss during the transmission of data and information on our website.

We strongly recommend that you have appropriate software devices installed on your computer to protect the transmission and reception of network data, such as an updated antivirus system. Additionally, your Internet service provider should employ suitable network data transmission security measures, such as firewalls and anti-spam filtering.

6. Right to Access Personal Data and Other Rights:

We process your personal data only with your freely expressed consent for sending advertising material, direct marketing, or other commercial communications, including email, which are not part of the customer-requested services offered by our website. We will inform you in advance whenever your consent is required, and you can choose to give or refuse consent for the use of your personal data (including your email address) for such purposes by selecting the appropriate option.

However, there may be cases where we process your personal data without your consent as allowed by law, such as when processing is necessary to fulfill a legal obligation or when it is necessary for the performance of a contract or requested service (e.g., if you make a purchase or request a specific service through our website).

Regardless, you have the right to exercise your right at any time, without stating a reason, to no longer receive future communications related to a particular service upon request.

You have the right to obtain confirmation from us at any time regarding whether your data is being processed.

Furthermore, you have the right to obtain information from us about the origin of your personal data, the purposes and means of processing, the logic involved in any electronic data processing, details of the data controller and data processor, and any potential disclosures or categories of entities that may have access to your personal data.

You have the right to object, in whole or in part, to:

• The processing of your personal data for legitimate reasons, even if it relates to the purpose for which it was collected.
• The processing of your personal data for advertising or direct marketing purposes, marketing research, or commercial communication.

You are free to exercise your rights at any time, in accordance with applicable law. To do so, please send us your request to the email address provided, and we will respond accordingly.

If you do not want to receive other marketing materials from us and/or do not want us to share your personal information with other entities as described in this Privacy Policy, please provide us with your exact name and address and specify your desire to opt-out of information sharing, receiving information, or both, as applicable.

We want to ensure that your personal information is accurate and up to date. If you need to update your contact information, please log in to your account on our website and make the necessary changes.

Addendum to the Privacy Policy for California and Virginia Residents:

These provisions are designed to comply with the privacy laws and regulations enacted by each state, including the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA), the California Privacy Rights Act (CPRA), and the Virginia Consumer Data Protection Act (collectively referred to as the “National Privacy Act”). These provisions supplement the rest of our Privacy Policy. Any terms defined in the national privacy laws have the same meanings within this context.

Throughout our business relationship with you as a customer, we collect various types of personal information about you.

We collect and process your personal information for the following business purposes:

Sharing of Personal Information:

We may share your personal information with the following categories of third parties:

1. Service Providers: We disclose personal information to our service providers to enable them to provide services to us and assist in fulfilling your requests. For example, we may share information with Rakuten Ads.
2. Partners: We may disclose aggregate demographic information to our partners as part of our marketing and business development efforts.

8. Do Not Sell or Share My Information (CPRA):

We respect your privacy and will not sell your personal information in the traditional sense, which means we will not exchange your name, phone number, address, email address, or any other personally identifiable information for money.

However, under California law, certain transfers of personal information are considered “sales,” even if no financial transaction occurs. California residents have the right to opt-out of the “sale” of their personal information.

At our company, the only “sales” we engage in (as defined by California law) involve sharing information about your website activity with our advertising partners via cookies. This enables us to provide you with more relevant advertisements.

If you wish to opt-out of such “sales,” please follow the instructions provided in our Privacy Policy. Please note that this opt-out only applies to future “sales” and does not affect information that was previously collected or sold before your request. You may still receive targeted advertising from other sources for which you have not opted out.

When you opt out through our website, an “opt-out” cookie will be stored in your web browser to indicate your preference. If you delete cookies or use a different device or browser, you will need to opt out again. Please be aware that we also place cookies to facilitate order processing on our website. If you prefer to place an order without cookies, please contact our Customer Service.

9. Authorized Agent:

Under the CCPA, you have the option to designate an authorized agent to exercise your rights on your behalf. If you choose to do so, we will ask you to verify your identity directly with us and confirm that you have provided the authorized agent with permission to submit requests on your behalf. Please note that if your authorized agent fails to provide sufficient evidence of their authority, we may deny their request.

10. Amendments and Updates to this California Privacy Policy:

We reserve the right to modify, change, or update this California Privacy Policy at any time. Any revisions will become effective when we post the updated policy. By continuing to use our services after the revised policy has been posted, you acknowledge and accept the changes.

11. Responding to Do Not Track Signals:

California law requires us to inform you about how we respond to “Do Not Track” (DNT) signals or similar mechanisms that allow you to opt-out of the collection of personal information about your online activities. Currently, we do not respond to browser DNT signals when you interact with our website or use our services, as there is no widely accepted standard for interpreting these signals.
