We collect and use the information that you actively provide to us (including but not limited to your personal information for completing a transaction, verifying your credit card, placing an order, arranging for a delivery or returning a purchase), to ensure this website is relevant to your needs; to allow you access to limited-entry areas of the site; to help us create content most relevant to you; to contact you in response to sign up forms (such as contact us page); to deliver services (such as information, educational programs, newsletters, or software you request or purchase); to complete a transaction or service requested by you; to fulfill the terms of a promotion; to alert you about special offers, updated information and other new services from us or from other third parties; to notify you about a material change to this and our other policies, and for other relevant purposes.

If we ask for your personal information for a secondary reason, like marketing, we will either ask you directly for your expressed consent, or provide you with an opportunity to say no.
If after you consent, opt-in or subscribe to our services on a regular basis via email, and later you change your mind, you may withdraw your prior consent for us to contact you, or to continue the collection, use or disclosure of your information, at any time, by contacting us in writing (emailing or mailing) by the information provided below.
DISCLOSURE OF THE INFORMATION
While serving you and our other customers, we may need to disclose some information if necessary to complete your purchase when you choose to make a purchase on the site (including your credit card number, billing address and other information related to such purchase); to act in urgent circumstances; to protect against potential fraud (e.g., if someone uses a credit card or debit card to purchase services with us, we may use card authorization and fraud screening services to verify that the card information and address matches the information that was supplied to us, and that the card has not been reported as lost or stolen); to protect the personal safety of our end users; to comply with the law or to act in good faith belief that such action complies with the requirements of law; to comply with legal process served on us; to protect and defend our rights and property, or against those who violate either of our TERMS AND CONDISIONS, TERMS OF SALES AND SHIPPING, RETURNS AND EXCHANGE POLICY, or this PRIVACY POLICY. In these and other situations, we may share or disclose the information you provide to mail carriers and sponsors for providing proper services to you; to our owners, affiliates, strategic partners, agents, third party marketers or other unaffiliated parties who are offering products or services that we believe may be of interest to you or who require your personally identifiable information for research, administrative and/or internal business purposes; to unaffiliated third-party service providers, agents or independent contractors who help us maintain our website and provide other administrative services to us (including, but not limited to, order processing and fulfillment, providing customer service, maintaining and analyzing data, sending customer communications on our behalf, and others); to third parties as part of any corporate reorganization process including, but not limited to, mergers, acquisitions, and sales of all or substantially all of our assets; and to other people and business entities.
In general, the third-party providers used by us will only collect, use and disclose your information to the extent necessary to allow them to perform the services they provide to us. However, certain third-party service providers, such as payment gateways and other payment transaction processors, have their own privacy policies in respect to the information we are required to provide to them for your purchase-related transactions. For these providers, we recommend that you read their privacy policies so you can understand the manner in which your personal information will be handled by these providers. In particular, remember that certain providers may be located in or have facilities that are located in a different jurisdiction than either you or us. So if you elect to proceed with a transaction that involves the services of a third-party service provider, then your information may become subject to the laws of the jurisdictions in which that service provider or its facilities are located. Once you leave our store’s website or are redirected to a third-party website or application, you are no longer governed by this PRIVACY POLICY or our website’s other policies, terms, and conditions.
Except as described in this PRIVACY POLICY and at the time we request the information, we do not otherwise use, share or otherwise disclose your name and contact or payment details to any third parties.
INTERNATIONAL TRANSFER OF INFORMATION
If you choose to provide us with personally identifiable information, we may transfer that information to third parties across borders, and from your country or jurisdiction to other countries or jurisdictions around the world. If you are visiting this website from countries with laws governing data collection otherwise than the US law, please note that you are transferring your personally identifiable information to the United States which may not have the same data protection laws as yours. You are thereby free to choose whether to agree to our terms, or to terminate your use of this website.
