Additionally when you make a purchase or attempt to make a purchase through the Site, we collect certain information from you, including your name, billing address, shipping address, payment information (including credit card numbers, email address, and phone number. We refer to this information as “Order Information”.
When we talk about “Personal Information” in this Privacy Policy, we are talking both about Device Information and Order Information.
HOW DO WE USE YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION?
We use the Order Information that we collect generally to fulfill any orders placed through the Site (including processing your payment information, arranging for shipping, and providing you with invoices and/or order confirmations). Additionally, we use this Order Information to:
- Communicate with you;
- Screen our orders for potential risk or fraud; and
- When in line with the preferences you have shared with us, provide you with information or advertising relating to our products or services.
- We use order information and account activity to provide you with loyalty reward points to use toward your purchases.
- When members have opted in to our Mailing List, we use order information to provide discounts and coupons. Under the GDPR, you have the "right of erasure". This means you can request that your data be removed at any point. If you wish to have your information deleted, please contact info@shopkalmakova.com to be removed from our Mailing List.
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 Site (for example, by generating analytics about how our customers browse and interact with the Site, and to assess the success of our marketing and advertising campaigns).
To produce some of my products, I work with a 3rd party manufacturer ("Maker") to make and ship my printed clothing and accessories. To produce the products, all information required to complete your order including name, address, and the products ordered will be transferred to the Maker. This transfer occurs over an encrypted connection using the HTTPS protocol. Your data will be stored with the Maker as long as is reasonably legally required for their records. They may use the order data internally for appropriate measures including related customer service (ex. I need to check on where your order is) and statistical analysis. Reasonable steps are taken on the Maker's part to ensure secure storage. My Maker complies with the GDPR.
MailChimp
We use MailChimp to distribute our Crow’s Nest Newsletter to our Mailing List, which Member’s have opted in to receive. When we send emails to Members, we may track behaviour such as who opened the emails and who clicked the links. This allows us to measure the performance of our email campaigns and to improve our features for specific segments of Members. We do our best to keep your data accurate and up to date, to the extent that you provide us with the information we need to do so. If your data changes (for example, if you have a new email address), then you are responsible for notifying us of those changes. Upon request, we will provide you with information about whether we hold, or process on behalf of a third party, any of your Personal Information. We will retain your information for as long as your account is active or as long as needed to provide you with our Services. We may also retain and use your information in order to comply with our legal obligations, resolve disputes, prevent abuse, and enforce our Agreements.
