We genuinely appreciate your business and are committed to providing our customers with exceptional service. We also respect your privacy and take great care in protecting your personal information. This Privacy Policy describes how your personal information is collected, used, and shared when you visit or make a purchase from our website.
Collection of personal information
When you make a purchase or attempt to make a purchase through our website, we collect certain information from you. We collect your name, billing address, shipping address, payment information, email address, and phone number.
We refer to this information as “Order Information”.
Also, when you visit our website, we automatically collect certain information about your device, including information about your web browser, IP address, time zone, and some of the cookies that are installed on your device. See more information on cookies below.

We refer to this automatically collected information as “Device Information”.
We collect Device Information using the following technologies:
- “Cookies” are data files that are placed on your device or computer and often include an anonymous unique identifier. They can improve your experience of using a website, for example, by remembering your preference settings and tracking your use of a website so that it can be improved to meet your needs. Unless the cookie is a strictly necessary cookie, you can withdraw your consent to our cookies at any time even if you have previously consented. Although, please do remember that if you do not consent to our functionality cookies, parts of our website will not work.

- “Web beacons”, “tags”, and “pixels” are electronic files used to record information about how you browse the Site.
When we talk about “personal information” in this Privacy Policy, we are talking both about Order Information and Device Information.
How do we use your personal information?
We use the Order Information that we collect to:
- Fulfill any orders placed through the website (including processing payment, arranging for shipping, and providing invoices and order confirmations);
- Communicate with you;
- Screen orders for potential risk or fraud; and

For greater certainty, we use your information to fulfill contracts we might have with you (for example if you order through the website), or otherwise to pursue our legitimate business interests listed above.
We will not use or disclose your personal information for any additional purpose unless we obtain your consent to do so. We will not sell your personal information to other parties.
We use the Device Information that we collect to help us screen for potential risk and fraud (in particular, your IP address), and more generally to improve and optimize our website (for example, by generating analytics about how our customers browse and interact with the website, and to assess the success of our marketing and advertising campaigns).
