Below you'll find all the nitty gritty rules and regulations that Shopify requires me to spell out. Yes, it's a lot! If you have any questions about any of the information below, please don't hesitate to get in touch and I'll do my best to clarify anything that's unclear.
PRIVACY POLICY
Here’s more information on how your personal information is collected, used, and shared when you visit or make a purchase from treselegantedesigns.com (the “Site”).
What kind of personal information do we collect from you?
When you visit the Site, certain information is automatically collected about your device, including information about your web browser, IP address, time zone, and some of the cookies that are installed on your device. As you browse the Site, we’ll also collect information about the individual web pages or products that you view, which websites or search terms referred you to the Site, and additional information about your activity on the Site. This type of information is referred to as “Device Information.”
When you make a purchase or attempt to make a purchase on the Site, we collect relevant purchase-related information, like your name, billing address, shipping address, and method of payment (including credit card number), along with your email address and phone number. This type of information is referred to as “Order Information.”
When we reference “Personal Information” in our Privacy Policy, we are talking both about Device Information and Order Information as we’ve just described above.
How do we collect this information?
We collect Device Information using the following technologies:
• “Cookies” - Cookies are data files that are placed on your device or computer and often include an anonymous unique identifier. If you’d like more information about cookies, and how to disable cookies, visit http://www.allaboutcookies.org.
• “Log files” – Log files track your actions and collect data pertaining to your activity on the Site. This can include your IP address, browser type, Internet service provider, referring/exit pages, and date/time stamps.
• “Web beacons,” “tags,” and “pixels” – These are various types of electronic files used to record information about how you browse the Site.
How do we use the Personal Information that we collect from you?
We use the Order Information that we collect to fulfill any orders you place through the Site. This allows us to process your payment, arranging for shipping, and provide you with invoices and/or order confirmations to keep you updated on the status of your order.
This Order Information is also used to do things like:
• Communicate with you;
• Screen all orders for potentially fraudulent activity; and
• Provide you with information or advertising relating to our products and services that is more closely aligned with your preferences and interests.
We use the Device Information that we collect to help us screen for potential risk and fraudulent behavior (IP addresses are particularly helpful in pinpointing suspicious activity), and more generally to improve and optimize our Site. For example, analytics tell us more about how our customers browse and interact with the Site so that we may continually improve it. Analytics also help us in assessing the success of our marketing and advertising campaigns.
Which third parties might we share your Personal Information with, and why?
We share your Personal Information with third parties whose expertise can help us improve the Site and make your shopping experience with us as efficient and enjoyable as possible.
For example, we use Shopify to power our online store. You can read more about how Shopify uses your Personal Information here: https://www.shopify.com/legal/privacy
We also use Google Analytics to help us understand how our customers use the Site. You can read more about how Google uses your Personal Information here: https://www.google.com/intl/en/policies/privacy/.
And if you so desire, you can opt-out of Google Analytics here: https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout
Finally, we may also share your Personal Information to comply with applicable laws and regulations, to respond to a subpoena, search warrant or other lawful request for information we receive, or to otherwise protect our rights.
BEHAVIORAL ADVERTISING
As described above, we use your Personal Information to provide you with targeted advertisements or marketing communications that we believe may be of interest to you. For more information about how this type of targeted advertising works, you can visit the Network Advertising Initiative’s (“NAI”) educational page at: http://www.networkadvertising.org/understanding-online-advertising/how-does-it-work
