Information We Collect

As a visitor, you may browse our website to learn more about our brand. You do not need to provide any personal information to visit the website.

We collect personal information when you sign in, express interest in learning about our products, purchase our products, participate in activities on our website, or communicate with us.

You are in control of the type of information you provide when you use our website. The information we collect depends on the context of your interaction with the company and the website. We may collect the following personal information:

  • Name, email address, and contact information.
  • Date of birth.
  • Payment Information. If you choose to purchase one of our products, our payment processor collects your payment information. Our payment processor stores all payment information securely, and we do not have access to sensitive information such as your credit card number or security code.

Security Policies for the Transmission of Credit and Debit Card Data

Our customers’ security remains a priority. We therefore commit to protecting online payments, transactions, and personal data.

Our portal DOES NOT store users’ credit or debit card information. We use third-party payment processors, including Servicios Digitales Popular and its Azul brand, as well as PayPal, to handle the entire payment process.

We may disclose customer information to third parties only in the following circumstances: to comply with a legal requirement or court order; to review or complete account payments or transfers due to a specific issue; or to confirm the existence or status of an account for an involved third party.

Information We Collect Automatically

When you use our website, your mobile phone or web browser automatically sends us certain device information through its interaction with our website. We generally treat this information as non-personal information. We also collect the following:

Cookies: Our website uses “cookies” to identify the areas of the website you have visited. A cookie is a small piece of data that your web browser stores on your computer or mobile device. We use cookies to personalize the content you see on our website. Most web browsers allow you to disable cookies. However, disabling cookies may prevent you from accessing some website features. We never place personally identifiable information in cookies.

Third-Party Tracking Tools: We also use third-party tracking tools to improve our website’s performance and features. Third parties design these tools to collect only non-personal information about your use of our website. However, parties outside our control create and manage these tools. Therefore, we cannot control the information they actually collect or how they use and protect that information.

Log Information: We automatically receive information from your web browser or mobile device. This information includes the name of the website you used to enter our website, if applicable, and the name of the website you visit after leaving our website. It also includes the IP address of the device or proxy server you use to access the Internet, the name of your Internet service provider, your web browser type, your mobile device type, and your device’s operating system. We use this information to analyze user trends and improve our website.

How and Why We Use Your Personal Information

We use the information we receive from you as follows:

Personalizing Your Website Experience. We may use the information you provide, together with any device information we receive, to personalize our website.

Data Aggregation. We reserve the right to collect, use, and aggregate any non-personal information we obtain from your use of our website for internal analysis that helps us improve our website and services. We do not include personally identifiable information in these data aggregations.

Order Information. We generally use the order information we collect to fulfill orders placed through the website, including processing payment information, scheduling shipments, and sending invoices or order confirmations.

We also use order information to communicate with you; screen orders for potential risk or fraud; and, in line with the preferences you have shared with us, provide information or advertising related to our products or services.

Transfer of Your Personal Information

We may transfer and store your information, including personal information, on devices located outside your state, province, country, or other governmental jurisdiction, where data protection laws may differ from those in your jurisdiction.

We will take all reasonably necessary steps to ensure that we handle your data securely and in accordance with this Privacy Policy. We will not transfer your personal information to an organization or country unless the receiving organization or country maintains adequate controls, including measures that protect your data and other personal information.

Disclosure of Your Personal Information

If we take part in a merger, acquisition, or asset sale, we may transfer your personal information. We will notify you before we transfer your personal information and before a different Privacy Policy governs it.

Under certain circumstances, the law may require us to disclose your personal information, or public authorities may submit valid requests for it, such as requests from a court or government agency.

Retention of Your Personal Information

We will retain your personal information only for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes set out in this Privacy Policy. We will retain and use your information as necessary to comply with our legal obligations, such as when applicable law requires us to retain your data, resolve disputes, and enforce our legal agreements and policies.

Your Data Protection Rights Under the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR)

For the purposes of this Privacy Policy, we act as the Data Controller of your personal information.

If you reside in the European Economic Area (EEA), our legal basis for collecting and using your personal information as described in this Privacy Policy depends on the information we collect and the specific context in which we collect it. We may process your personal information because:

  • We need to make a contract with you, such as when you enter into an agreement with us.
  • You have given us permission to do so.
  • Our legitimate interests support the processing, and your rights do not override those interests.
  • We need to process payments.
  • We need to comply with the law.

If you reside in the European Economic Area (EEA), you have certain data protection rights. Under certain circumstances, you have the following rights:

  • The right to access, update, or delete the personal information we hold about you.
  • The right to rectification.
  • The right to object.
  • The right to restrict processing.
  • The right to data portability.
  • The right to withdraw consent.

Please note that we may ask you to verify your identity before we respond to these requests.

You have the right to file a complaint with a Data Protection Authority regarding our collection and use of your personal information. For more information, please contact your local Data Protection Authority in the European Economic Area (EEA).

Service Providers

We engage third-party companies and individuals to facilitate our website (“Service Providers”), operate the website on our behalf, perform website-related services, or help us analyze how people use the website.

These third parties may access your personal information only to perform these tasks on our behalf. They must not disclose or use it for any other purpose.

Analytics: Google Analytics is a web analytics service that Google offers to track and report website traffic. Google uses the data it collects to track and monitor use of our Service. Google shares this data with other Google services. Google may use the collected data to contextualize and personalize advertisements within its own advertising network.

You can prevent Google Analytics from accessing your activity on the Service by installing the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on. The add-on prevents Google Analytics JavaScript, including ga.js, analytics.js, and dc.js, from sharing information about website activity with Google Analytics.

Payment Processors: We offer paid products and/or services through our website. In those cases, we use third-party payment processing services, including payment processors such as PayPal and Azul.

We will not store or collect your payment card details. You provide that information directly to our third-party payment processors, and their respective Privacy Policies govern how they use your personal information. These payment processors comply with the standards that the PCI Security Standards Council administers under PCI-DSS.

Links to Third-Party Websites

Our website may contain links to other websites that we do not directly control. Those websites may maintain their own privacy policies.

We do not control or accept responsibility for linked websites, and we provide these links solely for our visitors’ convenience and information. You access linked websites at your own risk. This Privacy Policy does not cover those websites.

You should review each website’s privacy policy, if available, to understand how its operators use your personal information.

These websites may also link to websites operated by our affiliates. This Privacy Policy does not cover our affiliates’ websites either. You should review their individual privacy policies to understand how their operators use your personal information.

Our Email Policy

We and our affiliates fully comply with national anti-spam laws. You may always opt out of receiving further email correspondence from us and/or our affiliates.

We agree not to sell, rent, or trade your email address to any unaffiliated third party without your permission.

Updates to Our Privacy Policy

We reserve the right to modify this Privacy Policy at any time. If we make material changes, we may notify you through our website, a blog post, email, or any other method we choose. We choose the notification method at our sole discretion.

We will also revise the “Last Updated” date at the beginning of this Privacy Policy. Any changes we make will take effect on that Last Updated date and will replace any previous version of the Privacy Policy.
