Essential information we collect In operating our store:
It is essential for us to capture some information about your device, such as your IP address and information related to your visit when you browse our store. For example, this might include time-stamp, the last page or product you visited, the indication that you logged in.
● Remember who you are after you log in so that you do not need to authenticate at each click;
● Monitor if our website is running with the high performance we are dedicated to providing;
● Let you browse between products without having to start back from the home page at each click;
● Remember if you put something in your shopping cart before you decide to checkout; and
● Control that your data is processed securely.
We call the information mentioned above “essential information” and we collect it through the use of cookies. Cookies are small text files that most websites uses. A website places cookies in the web browser and then reads the information collected through the cookies every time the user performs an action. We use cookies. Without enabling this mechanism and this kind of cookies (first-party cookies), we could not provide you with the smooth experience that you expect while you are navigating.
Order information you expressly provide
If you buy something from our store, we will need more specific information about you. To fully
process your order and ship the merchandise you selected, we need your personal data such as
your first and last name, your email address and your shipping and billing address. We also use
your contact and order information to send you communication related to the processing of your
order. We will ask you to provide this information in our “checkout page” before letting you
finalize your purchase with the payment.
Accounts
You can sign up for an account. This will make us happy because it confirms your
interest in our store. It should also make you happy because we will remember your information
and, when you decide to buy our products, you do not have to provide all of your information over
again -- you just have to log-in. We also enable you the possibility to easily withdraw your consent and delete your account. Just
connect with us at the contact details at the bottom of the page.
Partial Purchases
If you have started to buy one of our products, but have not completed the purchase, you may
have provided partial information, such as your email. In that case, we might send you an email to
remind you about your interest. If you are not comfortable in receiving further emails of this kind,
we will give you a simple opportunity to opt-out. Your privacy means a lot to us and we will stop
sending you these communications right away.
Reviews
If you have completed a purchase, we will send you an email to ask you to review the product you
purchased. We want to be sure that whether you love your purchase or have a complaint, you can
share your opinion with other customers.
Personalization
We also use some specific information related to your visit, such as the timestamp of your visit, the
page or the product you viewed, where you are coming from (if you came to our store because you
clicked on an advertisement or you just opened our direct link). This is very similar to the
“essential information,” but we use it to provide you with a personalized experience. The
information on your visit provides us with insights on your interests and allows us to send you
relevant communications. We capture this information through cookies, called a "beacon," that
we allow you to block. Our cookie policy can be found here: Cookie Policy
