Our Website may include links to third-party websites that are not operated by us.

Users are advised to review the privacy notices and Terms and Conditions of any external websites they visit.

Children
Users must be at least 18 years of age to create an account, subscribe to our newsletter, contact us, or communicate with us through any channel. We do not knowingly collect personal data from individuals under the age of 18. Parents are encouraged to ensure that their children under 18 do not provide us with personal data without permission. If you believe that personal data has been provided to us by a child under 18, please contact us, and we will endeavor to delete the data from our systems.
Lookalike Audiences
For advertising purposes, we may use customer information to create a "lookalike audience" or similar audience on platforms such as Facebook, Google, Snapchat, Pinterest, or TikTok. This allows us to target ads to potential customers who share interests or demographics with our existing customers, based on the platforms' data. We typically use encrypted lists of email addresses for this purpose, with third parties hashing the data before matching it against their customers and generating the audience. We do not have access to the identities of individuals in the lookalike audience unless they interact with the ads. We believe that generating lookalike audiences poses minimal risk to customer privacy. If you wish to opt out of "similar audiences" on Google, you can adjust your Ads Settings. Many companies offering interest-based advertising are part of the Network Advertising Initiative (NAI) and/or Digital Advertising Alliance (DAA), where you can learn more about opting out of interest-based advertising and tracking. European Union residents can also visit www.youronlinechoices.eu for additional options.
Marketing Service Providers
Your personal data, encompassing demographic details, transaction history, and online activities, may be disclosed to selected marketing service providers for various purposes, commonly referred to as data profiling. These purposes include:
• Enhancing our understanding of customer characteristics.
• Developing predictive models to offer personalized suggestions and recommendations for Products or services.
• Improving the relevance and suitability of our marketing efforts, such as offers, Products, and services.
• Facilitating more effective communication with customers both online and offline, potentially leading to tailored advertising via direct mail or Website visits.
To safeguard the security and integrity of your data, all information shared with marketing service providers will undergo transformation into a non-readable format. This process involves removing identifiable information and replacing it with pseudonymous identifiers or encrypted tokens. Marketing service providers may possess the capability to correlate the data provided by us with information from their own or other third-party sources. For instance, they may merge the non-readable data received from us with data acquired from reputable sources to gain deeper insights into consumer behavior and preferences.
