If you choose to participate in a Promotion through our Services, we will collect personal data you provide in connection with your participation in the Promotion, which may include, your name, date of birth, address email address, phone number, and/or other personal data identified in the Promotion terms. We use such data to administer our promotions and communicate with you.

  • Newsletters and Alerts Sign Up. You may sign up through our Sites to receive electronic newsletters and promotional emails from us. To sign up, we may ask you to provide your email address.

We have a legitimate interest in using CCTV to protect our visitors and have limited such use to public locations where visitors do not have an expectation to privacy.

Information We Collect from Third Parties. From time to time, we may obtain personal data about you from third party sources as required or permitted by law. These sources may include:

  • Social Media. We may offer you the opportunity to engage with our content on or through third-party social networking websites, plug-ins and applications.

When you provide information from your social media account, we may use this information to personalize your experience on our Services and on the third-party social networking websites, plug-ins and applications, and to provide you with other products or services you may request.

  • Third Party Partners. Unless prohibited by applicable law, we may obtain your personal data from marketing partners, analytics providers, Promotion providers, and other third-party partners to market to you, including to match custom audiences or create lookalike audiences on social media or other marketing platforms so that we can better understand which of our Services may be of interest to you, market our Services to you, and to provide us information necessary to improve our Services.

  • Other Individuals. We may receive certain information about you from people with whom you are friends or otherwise connected. For instance, when your friend or other people connected to you would like to send you a gift card, or order products through our Services, we may obtain your name, contact information, and addresses. Please note, if you provide us with information about someone else, please ensure you have the person’s permission to do so for the purposes detailed in this Policy.

If you choose to login to our Services through a third-party platform (such as Shop, PayPal, or Klarna) we may have access to certain information from that platform, such as your username, email address, or phone number to send you verification code. The information we receive may vary based on your privacy settings on such platform or as otherwise controlled by the provider of such platform.

2. How We Collect Personal Data

We collect your personal data from a variety of sources, including directly from you, automatically when you interact with our Services, and from third parties, as described below:

  • When we receive it from third parties. We may receive information about you from third parties, such as companies with whom we run competitions and events, organizations we work with, publicly available sources, or information which is published in the media. Depending on your settings or the privacy policies of social media or messaging services that we partner with, such as Facebook, Instagram, Pinterest, or X, we may collect information about you from these sources as well, with your permission.

3. Cookies and Other Tracking Technologies

We and our third-party partners and service providers (such as advertisers and analytics providers) may use cookies and similar digital tracking technologies (such as pixels, web beacons, and tags) (collectively, “Tracking Technologies”) on our Sites and other online services to gather information when you interact with our Sites and Services. These Tracking Technologies help us operate our Services, understand your usage, improve functionality, and, depending on your choices and where you live, deliver and measure advertising.

Tracking Technologies can be placed on our Sites by us or by third-party partners we engage for our purposes. Third-party cookies may also be deployed on our behalf on third-party websites (e.g. to measure the effectiveness of ads).

Types of Tracking Technologies. Our Sites and Services may use the following types of tracking technologies:

  • Strictly Necessary. These Tracking Technologies are required for the operation of Sites and Services. These Tracking Technologies do not gather information about you for marketing purposes.

  • Functional. These Tracking Technologies are used to recognize you when you return to Sites and Services. They remember the choices you make (such as your username, or the region you are in) and the changes you make to text size, fonts and other features you can customize. While these Tracking Technologies can be disabled, this may result in less functionality during your use of our Sites and Services.

  • Analytics. These Tracking Technologies allow us and our analytics service providers/processors to count visits and traffic sources, or test new features, so that we can measure and improve the performance of our Sites and Services, including as part of our analytics practices to improve the content offered. They help us understand how visitors use our Sites and Services, which site or page the user came from, the number of each user’s visits and how long a user stays on the Sites and Services.

  • Analytics (Partner). These Tracking Technologies allow our third-party analytics partners to track information about your usage of the Sites and Services (as defined in the Privacy Policy). These third-party analytics partners may obtain information about how visitors use our Sites and Services, which site or page the user came from, the number of each user’s visits and how long a user stays on the Sites and Services. These third-party analytics partners may use the information for their own purposes.

  • Targeting and Marketing. Targeting Tracking Technologies may be set through our Sites and Services (as defined in the Privacy Policy), by our advertising partners to deliver content, including ads, that are relevant to your interests across your devices, based on how you interact with our advertisements or content. They may be used by our advertising partners to build a profile of your interests and to show you relevant ads on other sites. They do not store directly personal data but are based on uniquely identifying your browser and internet device. If you do not allow these Tracking Technologies, you will experience less targeted advertising.

  • Social Media. These Tracking Technologies are set by a range of social media partners that we add to the website. They are capable of tracking your browser across other sites and building up a profile of your interests. This may impact the content and messages you see on other websites you visit.

Why We Use Tracking Technologies.

We may use these Tracking Technologies for the following purposes:

  • to enable basic functioning of our Sites or to fix any technical issue through gathering relevant technical data;

  • for web analytics to improve our Sites (structure, features, accessibility and usability, content) or to fix any technical issue through gathering relevant technical data;

  • to enable certain basic functions of online browsing and shopping with us (for example, save information you generated or provided on our website such as preferred items, items placed in the cart, billing address to save time and effort when you next return to our Sites or shop with us);

  • to monitor the effectiveness of our online ads and marketing (by recording your interactions with our ads on third-party websites, our social media platforms or our marketing emails);

  • to learn more about your preferences and Internet browsing tastes to provide you with tailored advertising (you certainly don't want to hear from us about something you are not interested in); and

  • to collect information around abandoned shopping carts. A cart is considered abandoned within one hour of inactivity/lack of purchase. Once the cart is considered abandoned, an SMS message will be sent as a reminder.

How to Manage Your Tracking Technologies Preferences.

  • Your Privacy Choices. Please refer to Section 9 below for more information about whether you have the right to opt-out of sales and targeted advertising, and if so, how to exercise that right.

  • Cookies Settings. If you are located in European Countries (defined below), you may consent to or withdraw your consent to sharing your personal data via tracking technologies at any time by clicking the “Cookies Preferences” link in the website footer and changing your preferences.

You will need to submit a separate opt-out of sharing request on each device and browser you use to visit our Sites to completely opt-out using this method. Please note that you may still receive generalized ads after opting out.

  • Browser Controls. Alternatively, you can set or amend your web browser controls to accept or refuse cookies. If you choose to reject cookies, you may still use our Sites although your access to some functionality and areas may be restricted.

  • Opting-out of Third-Party Analytics. We may use third-party service providers to monitor and analyze the use of our online, web-based, and mobile-based Services, such as Google Analytics. Google Analytics is an analytics service offered by Google LLC (“Google”) that tracks and reports website traffic. For more information on the privacy practices of Google, please visit the Google Privacy & Terms web page: https://policies.google.com/privacy?hl=en. To opt out of Google Analytics or to prevent your data from being collected and used by Google Analytics, please visit: https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout.

  • Disabling Certain Interest Based Advertising. Many advertising companies that collect information for interest-based advertising are members of the Digital Advertising Alliance (DAA), which maintain websites where people can opt out of interest-based advertising from their members. To opt out of website interest-based advertising provided by each organization’s respective participating companies, visit the DAA’s opt-out portal available at http://optout.aboutads.info.

To the extent we transfer to another business any personal data collected from individuals while they are located in the European Countries, we transfer such data subject to appropriate safeguards and as permitted under the data protection laws, including: (i) through the use of standard contractual clauses approved by an appropriate regulatory authority, such as the European Commission or the U.K. Information Commissioner’s Office; (ii) an Article 49 derogations in specific situations; or (iii) any other compliant transfer mechanism. We may also rely on an adequacy decision of the appropriate regulatory authority confirming an adequate level of data protection in the jurisdiction of the party receiving the information.
