Information Collection and Use

When you browse the Website We do not require any personal information from you except that we use your IP address to help diagnose problems with our server, to administer the Website and collect regional demographic information, or to perform other technical maintenance. Our Website also utilizes cookies to keep track of your orders and to personalize your experience on the Website. We use cookies to deliver content specific to your interests and to track your order history. This data is processed based on our Legitimate Business Interest to maintain the proper functioning of our services, to track how our services are used and also to track how our clients interact with the services.

When you submit your profile on our site, participate in a forum, or process an order, we collect  the following personally identifiable information to our servers located within or outside of the European Union:

●     email address, physical contact information, and (depending on the services used) sometimes financial information, such as credit card or bank account numbers, this data is collected on the basis of our need to fulfil the contract that you have entered with Us when you decided to create your profile and to use our services. We need this information so we can provide you with the services;

●     your personal information that you choose to disclose on your profile (name, age, location, pictures etc.), community discussions, chats, correspondence through the Website, and correspondence sent to Us. This data is processed based on your consent expressed through your actions when you decided to enter this data in your profile;

●     transactional information based on your activities on the Website (such as a list of members you contact); billing and other information you provide to receive information and messages from Us; computer sign-on data, statistics on page views, traffic to and from the Website, and advertisement data; and other information, including IP address and standard web log information. This data is processed based on our Legitimate Business Interest to maintain the proper functioning of our services, to track how our services are used and also to track how our clients interact with the services.

You may decide to disclose in your profile sensitive personal information like for instance your ethnicity or religion. Providing such information depends solely on your own discretion and if you decide to reveal such features for yourself, we will process this data based on your explicit consent expressed through your actions when you entered your personal data in your profile.

You should also be aware that any data that you chose to make public will be visible to any visitor of our website and our affiliate websites. It also may be visible on third party search engines and online advertising resources (including but not limited to such resources as Google Ads and similar).  In order to comply with the privacy requirements and,in particular with the principle of privacy by default, each set of your personal data will be by default not public.

How we use your data?

The only purposes for which we use your data are outlined in this policy and intend to provide you with our services e.g. to maintain your profile visible to other users of our website and to maintain the functions for exchange of messages between you and the other users of our services.

Transfer of data

Your information may be transferred to, and processed by Us in the United States or other countries other than your own that may not provide the same standard of protection of your personal data as in your home country and you may not be able to exercise your rights as data subject. In such cases we will make sure that such recipients of your data have signed special contracts e.g. Standard Contractual Clauses to make sure your confidentiality is respected.  If you provided information from a country that grants specific additional privacy rights, contact Us at the address below to exercise your rights.

Order Information

We DO NOT sell or rent any personally identifiable information about you to any third party without your permission. We request information from the user on our order form. Here a user should provide contact information (like name and e-mail) and financial information (like credit card number, expiration date etc.). This information is collected by a payment processing company, which provides highly secure payment processing for Us. Credit card information is encrypted using the SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) protocol and other standard industry practices. We do NOT keep your credit card information on our servers; once it is securely transmitted to the bank - it is deleted securely.

Security

The Website has security measures in place to prevent the loss, misuse and alteration of the information under our control. We have a secure ordering process.
When our order form asks users to enter sensitive information (such as credit card number), that information is encrypted and is protected with the best encryption software available in the industry - SSL. While on a secure page, such as our order and order confirmation forms, the lock icon on the bottom of Web browsers such as Microsoft Internet Explorer becomes locked, as opposed to un-locked, or open, when you are just 'surfing' (in non-secure mode).

The security and confidentiality of your personally identifiable information is extremely important to Us.  Technical, administrative, and physical security measures are used to protect customer information from unauthorized access and improper use.  From time to time, We review security procedures to consider appropriate new technology and methods. Please be aware that, despite best efforts, no security measures are perfect or completely impenetrable.

Newsletter

If you wish to subscribe to Our newsletter, We ask for contact information such as email address. We will send you Our newsletters on a regular basis to the email address you provide. You can unsubscribe at any time. E-mail address will be kept strictly confidential and not given or sold to anyone except as required by law.
