Introduction
The Vac and Stack privacy policy has been prepared to make it clear to the users of our website just how their ‘personally identifiable information’ (“PII”) is being used online. PII refers to information that can be used on its own or with other information to identify, contact, or locate a single person, or to identify an individual. Please read this privacy policy carefully to get a clear understanding of how we collect, use, protect or otherwise handle your PII in accordance with our website.
What Information Do We Collect?
We collect information from you when you place an order, respond to a survey or communication such as e-mail, or participate in other website functionality. When ordering, the kinds of PII we may ask you for include, but is not necessarily limited to, your name, e-mail address, mailing address, phone number, credit card information or other information. However, you may visit our site anonymously. We may also collect information on how the website is accessed and used (“Usage Data”). This Usage Data may include information such as your computer’s Internet Protocol address (i.e., its “IP address”), browser type, browser version, the pages of our Service that you visit, the time and date of your visit, the time spent on those pages, unique device identifiers and other diagnostic data.
What do We Use Your Information For?
We use the information we collect to address technical issues, to let you know about changes to the website, to quickly process your transactions, to maintain and improve the website, provide customer care and support, to monitor usage of the website, and to personalize your website experience and to allow us to deliver the type of content and products in which you are most interested. We may disclose your PII in our good faith belief that it’s necessary to: prevent or investigate possible wrongdoing in connection with the use of our website, to defend our rights and property, to comply with a legal obligation, or to protect ourselves from legal liability.
How do we Protect Website User Information?
Your PII is contained behind secured networks and is only accessible by a limited number of people who have special access rights to such systems, and are required to keep the information confidential. All online transactions are facilitated by SquareSpace®, and processed through PayPal®. Please review PayPal®’s privacy policies here: https://www.paypal.com/myaccount/privacy/privacyhub And all transactions processed through your receipt of an invoice are processed through QuickBooks®. Please review QuickBook®’s privacy policies and terms of service here: https://www.intuit.com/privacy/; https://accounts.intuit.com/terms-of-service. In addition, all credit card information you supply is encrypted via Secure Socket Layer (SSL) technology. The security of your information is very important to us, but it is important to remember that no method of sending data over the internet, or method of storage, is 100% secure. Despite the commercially reasonable efforts we make to protect your PII, we cannot guarantee its absolute security.
Do we use "Cookies"?
Like most sites, we also use cookies. What are they? Cookies are small files that a site or its service provider transfers to your computer's hard drive through your web browser. This enables the site's or service provider's systems to recognize your browser and capture and remember certain information. For instance, we use cookies to help us remember and process the items in your shopping cart. They are also used to help us understand your preferences based on previous or current website activity, which enables us to provide you with improved services. We also use cookies to help us collect data about site traffic and site interaction so that we can offer better site experiences and tools.
You can choose to have your computer warn you each time a cookie is being sent, or you can choose to turn off cookies altogether. This is accomplished by manipulating your browser settings. Keep in mind, however, that if cookies are turned off, you won't have access to certain functionality which makes your site experience more efficient, and some components of our website will not function properly.
Transfer of Data
Please note that information, including PII, may be transferred to (and saved on) computers located outside of the governmental jurisdiction within which you live, where the data protection laws may differ from those of your residence jurisdiction. If you are located outside the United States and choose to provide information to us, please note that we transfer the data, including PII, to the United States to be processed there. Your consent to this Privacy Policy followed by your submission of such information represents your agreement to this data transfer.
Children’s Privacy
We do not knowingly collect PII from anyone under the age of 18. If you become aware that your Children has provided us with Personal Data, please contact us. If we become aware that we have collected Personal Data from children without verification of parental consent, we take steps to remove that information from our servers. With respect to the collection of PII from children under 13, the Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act (“COPPA”) puts parents in control. The Federal Trade Commission enforces COPPA, which (among other things) provides a framework for what operators of websites and online services must do to protect children’s privacy and safety online. We do not specifically market to children under 13.
