What Information Do We Collect About Our Customers?
The information we learn from customers helps us enhance and personalize the Store and the services we offer. We gather the following types of information:
Information You Give Us. We receive and store any information you enter on our Store or provide us in any other way (e.g., by telephone). This may include information you provide when you register as a member, engage in transactions, search, contact customer service, or participate in contests, promotions, surveys, forums, content submissions, chats, bulletin boards, discussion groups, requests for suggestions or other features or services offered by us. As a result, you may be supplying us with such information as your name, address and phone numbers; credit/debit card numbers, expiration date and other billing information; people to whom purchases will be shipped, including addresses and phone numbers; purchase history; and names and email addresses of friends, possible Refer-a-Friend customers and other people.
Automatic Information. We automatically receive and store certain types of information whenever you interact with us. For example, as most websites do, we use "cookies" and other technologies to obtain certain types of information when your computer, mobile phone or other device (each, a "Device") accesses our Store. This information is compiled and analyzed on both a personal and an aggregated basis, and it may include the Website's Uniform Resource Locator ("URL") that you just came from, which URL you go to next, what browser you are using, and your Internet Protocol ("IP") address. Other examples of automatic information we may collect are purchase history, products viewed or searched for, visits to certain pages, page interaction information and the phone number you used to call any of our toll-free numbers. We associate the information we store in cookies with personally identifiable information you submit while on our Store. During some visits, we may also collect technical information from your Device to help us identify your Device for fraud prevention purposes.
Mobile Devices. If you use a mobile Device to access our Store, we may collect certain information in addition to what we collect when you use other kinds of Devices to access our Store. We may receive information about your location and your mobile Device, including a unique identifier for your Device, your mobile operating system and the type of mobile Internet browser that you use. We may at times use this information to provide you with location-based services and information, such as advertising, search results, and other personalized content. Most mobile Devices provide users with the ability to disable location services. If you have questions about how to disable your Device's location services, we recommend you contact your mobile service carrier or your Device manufacturer.
Information Provided by Third Parties. We may obtain certain information about customers from third parties. This may include updated delivery or address information from carriers.
Do We Use Cookies?
We use small text files called "cookies" that provide non-personally identifiable information to us regarding visitors to the Store. In addition to the URL and IP addresses of our visitors, cookies may be used to gather the date and time of all visits to our Store. We may also track the pages of our Store that users viewed during their visit, or track search terms entered on our Store by that visitor. This helps us keep track of the number of visitors to our Store and allows us to gauge the areas that are of the most interest to our visitors.
We also use Local Shared Objects (commonly known as Flash cookies) for fraud prevention and other purposes. Flash cookies are small data files that a website or App stores on your Device. These files may contain information about your online browsing activities and preferences.
We use a third-party tracking service that uses cookies and other technologies to track non-personally identifiable information in aggregate form about visitors to our Store. This information is analyzed periodically and is used to gain a broader picture of usage patterns at our Store. We may share the non-personally identifiable information gathered through use of cookies with our advertisers and/or business partners, in order to make the Store as user-friendly as possible.
The Help feature on most browsers will tell you how to prevent your browser from accepting new cookies, how to have the browser notify you when you receive a new cookie, or how to disable cookies altogether. Flash cookies are not stored in the same manner as conventional cookies, and not all browser versions will delete Flash cookies when you clear conventional cookies from your browser. If you wish to block or delete Flash cookies, you should confirm whether your browser version supports this feature. You may also use Adobe's Flash Player Settings Manager to control how your Device handles Flash cookies. Because cookies allow you to take advantage of some of our Store' features, we recommend that you leave them turned on.
Some of our business partners (e.g., advertisers) use cookies on our Store. We have no access to or control over these cookies. This Privacy Policy only covers the use of cookies by KBC and does not cover the use of cookies by any advertisers.
How Do We Use the Information We Collect and Do We Share the Information We Receive?
Information about our customers is an important part of our business. We use information we collect from the Store to communicate with you, to process your orders, to provide an enhanced and more personalized interactive shopping experience, to facilitate your transactions with our third party marketing partners and to inform you of offers and discounts. For example, you can expect to receive a welcoming email to confirm your username and password. Additionally, we communicate with you in response to your inquiries, to provide the services you request and to manage your account. We also send service-related announcements on occasions such as when we need to temporarily suspend a website, App or other service for maintenance. We also will send you promotional emails on occasion. Generally, you may not opt out of service-related communications, which are not promotional in nature. If you do not wish to receive them, you have the option to terminate your account. Your account is with KBC, the owner and operator of the Store, and not with the individual Store; and the information collected through the Store is used by KBC for purposes of its Store and other services. For example, if you shop at our Store, you may receive promotional emails. However, you can opt-out of direct promotional communications from the Store by following the unsubscribe instructions within each communication or emailing us at customerservice@fankitbag.com.
We share customer information with third parties only as follows:
Third Party Service Providers. We may work closely with other businesses (that we don't own or control) that sell products or services on one or more of our Store.
In some cases, these businesses may operate stores or websites that sell products or services to you directly. In other cases, we operate stores, provide services or sell product lines jointly with these businesses. We share customer information related to those transactions with that third party.
Promotional Offers. We periodically provide our customers with information about third party products and services we believe will be of interest to you and with opportunities to participate in offers and/or promotions on behalf of other businesses. Your participation in these events may require us to share data with such a business. If you do not want to receive such information or offers, on behalf of third parties or otherwise, please opt-out during registration, email us later at customerservice@fankitbag.com, or follow the unsubscribe instructions within each communication.
Other Third Parties/Select Partners. From time to time, we might establish a business relationship with other persons or entities whom we believe are trustworthy and whom we have asked to confirm that their privacy policies are substantially consistent with ours. These are known as our Select Partners. In such cases, we might share and cross-reference information, including personal information about you that will enable such persons or entities to contact you regarding products and services that may be of interest to you. We may also combine your personal information with publicly available information and information we receive from or cross-reference with our Select Partners and others. We use that combined information to enhance and personalize your shopping experience with us, to communicate with you about our products and services that may be of interest to you and for further promotional purposes. If you do not want us to share information with Select Partners, please opt-out during registration, email us later at customerservice@fankitbag.com, or follow the unsubscribe instructions within each communication.
Merger/Sale. In the event that our Store, all or substantially all of its respective assets, or a line of business of our Store, is acquired, individually identifying information of our members may be one of the assets sold in connection with that transaction, without notice to you or your consent. We will notify users of the Store of such a change in ownership or transfer of assets by posting a notice on the Store.
Bankruptcy. In the unlikely event of our bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, receivership or assignment for the benefit of creditors, or the application of laws or equitable principles affecting creditors' rights generally, we may not be able to control how your personal information is treated, transferred or used. Therefore, you should know that in such event, your personal information may be treated like any other asset of KBC, and sold, transferred or shared with third parties, or used in ways not contemplated or permitted hereunder, without notice to you or your consent.
Protection of KBC and Others. We release account and other personal information when we believe release is appropriate to comply with the law and/or a judicial proceeding, court order or legal process served on KBC; enforce or apply our Terms of Use and other agreements; or protect the rights, property or safety of KBC, our Website users or others. This includes exchanging information with other companies and organizations for fraud protection and credit risk reduction.
How Secure Is the Personal Information You Collect?
We have taken precautions, including the deployment of technological resources and the use of firewalls, systems and procedures, to protect the security of your personal information. When you enter credit card information on our Store, we may store it so that you do not have to re-enter it every time you order, but we encrypt it when storing. While no security system is absolutely foolproof, we are constantly reviewing, refining and upgrading our security technology to protect your privacy. When you open an account with our Store, you are issued a password by which to access and secure your account and account information. Although we have taken these precautions, you are responsible for maintaining the secrecy of your password, which should not be disclosed by you. When using a shared Device, always be sure to sign off when finished.
Links
Our Store may contain links to other websites that we do not own or operate. We have no control over the content, policies or actions of those sites, even if you are offered services on those sites because you have established an account with our Store. We are not responsible for the privacy practices or the content of such websites. We encourage you to be aware when you leave our site and to read the privacy statements of each and every website that collects personally identifiable information. This Privacy Policy applies only to information collected by our Store.
