We use Google Analytics to analyze the usage of our Site and the traffic thereto. It helps us understand how you use and interact with our Site. Google Analytics gathers this information about you and your use of our Site by the use of cookies (for more information please refer to the below section entitled “Cookies Policy”). This information is then gathered as it relates to our Site and is used to create reports about users' interaction with our Site and to understand how traffic is driven to our Site. Additional information about how Google uses data received from its partners, like us, is available at: https://www.google.com/policies/privacy/.
We may also use Google Ads and/or Facebook Ads to measure performance and provide advertising campaigns that report back insights into how you and others saw and/or interacted with the ad(s). We may also use remarketing and/or retargeting ads for marketing purposes and to market our products and/or service and/or Site with other third-party companies, such as Instagram/Facebook/Google, based on your past history of visiting our Site. This may be accomplished via pixels, cookies or other similar automatic data collection technology.
The Company reserves the right to use tracking pixels, which collects data on visitors to our Site from social media platforms such as Facebook. This helps us track conversions from targeted ads, track user behavior, collect web traffic, optimize ad performance, and build a targeted audience for remarketing and future marketing purposes, similar to a cookie.
COOKIES POLICY
A cookie is a text file that contains an identifier (a string of letters and numbers) that is sent by a web server and kept by the browser. Each time the browser requests a page from the server, the identification is delivered back to the server. Cookies are classified as "persistent" or "session" cookies. A persistent cookie will be saved by a web browser and will remain valid until it is destroyed by the user before the expiry date; on the other hand, a session cookie will expire when the web browser is closed at the conclusion of the user session. Cookies do not usually contain information that can be used to personally identify a user, but the personal information that we store about you may be linked to information stored or obtained from cookies.
We use cookies for the following purposes:
authentication – we use cookies to identify you when you visit our Site and as you browse and/or navigate our Site;
active status – we use cookies to help us to determine if you are logged into our Site and/or to remember and process items in your cart;
security – we use cookies as a security protocol to protect your account, including preventing fraudulent use of login credentials, and to protect our Site and services generally;
advertising – we use cookies to tailor our advertisements to be relevant to you; and
analysis – we use cookies to help us to analyze the use and performance of our Site and services.
Most browsers allow you to refuse to accept and/or delete cookies. The methods for doing so vary from browser to browser, and from version to version. However, you can obtain updated information regarding blocking and deleting cookies via the following:

RETENTION & PROTECTION
We will only keep your personal information for as long as you want to stay connected with us. As this time will vary, there is no precise duration to provide. As a general rule, however, we will continue to send you email messages and newsletters via our email subscription (which you either signed up for or were automatically enrolled via other activities on our Site) until you opt out of these emails.
For payment and sensitive credit/debit card information, we use a Secure Socket Layer (SSL) certificate (technically a Transport Layer Security aka “TLS certificate”), which is an encryption security protocol to protect this information. The SSL/TLS certificate encrypts this data and ensures that anyone who intercepts the data can only see a scrambled set of characters and the information is safe and only visible to the website in which it was entered. We do not store or process this information personally on our server, but instead use a third-party service provider.
We use safeguards that are commercially responsible and accepted in the industry to protect your personal information. You acknowledge that we cannot prevent all misuse and unauthorized access to your personal information and hold us harmless should your personal information be tampered and/or intercepted without your or our consent. This includes a release of all claims associated with the unauthorized third-parties’ use of said information.
Should a data breach occur, we will promptly notify you within 10 business days of the known breach unless you reside in the United Kingdom and/or the European Union, which requires notices of a serious data breach within 72 hours after we become aware of said breach.
You may have additional rights depending on where you live, please refer to sections below regarding “Territories”.

We are not liable for any unauthorized use of your account or security information or breaches of your account due to the unauthorized use of your login credentials. We highly recommend that you log out of your account after each session ends to prevent unauthorized use or access.
You are not authorized to share your account or login credentials with anyone other than yourself so that others may not gain unauthorized access to our Site or Content via your account and/or login credentials.
