Access to Personal Information by Companies that Work with or on Behalf of Aussie Bubs, Inc.

Some of our operations, such as our electronic commerce, may be managed by service providers who are unaffiliated, third party companies. These companies may share Personal Information with their affiliates and with service providers whom they engage to perform services related to our Site or the operation of our business. Examples of these services include payment processing and authorization, fraud protection and credit risk reduction, product customization, order fulfillment and shipping, marketing and promotional material distribution, Web site evaluation, data analysis and, where applicable, data cleansing fulfillment houses. These companies may have access to your Personal Information on a confidential basis only to the extent necessary to perform these contracted for functions. We will not authorize these companies to use your Personal Information for any reason other than to provide you with specific contracted for services. For reasons of security, our Site does not store credit card information permanently on any Web server.

Other Uses of Personal Information. We may also use the Personal Information you voluntarily provide, in addition to information provided to us from our service providers, to continually assess and improve the products and services we offer. To serve you better, we may combine the Personal Information that you give us with publicly available information and information we receive from or cross-reference with our marketing partners and others. We may use that combined information to enhance and personalize your experience with our Site, to communicate with you about our products and events that may be of interest to you, and for other promotional purposes.

We may also collect Personal Information about you from our service providers who provide us with e-commerce related services related to the Site. Our Web server automatically logs non-specific information about users including IP address, aggregate user data (which will not contain any Personal Information related to a single visitor), and browser type. This data is used to manage our Site, track usage and improve the Site’s functionality. This non-specific information may be shared with third-parties to provide more relevant services and advertisements to users.

Disclosures of Personal Information in Legal Proceedings:

If Aussie Bubs, Inc., the Site, or any of our service providers is requested by law enforcement officials or judicial authorities to provide Personal Information on individual users, we or the applicable service provider may, without your consent or any notice to you, provide such information to the extent required by law.

Transfer of your Data to Other Countries:

Your personal information may be transferred to, stored, and processed in a country other than the one in which it was collected. For example, we may store your data on a server in the United States because that is where a particular database is hosted; and that data may be “transferred” again when one of our marketers accesses that data from Australia to send you a product sample. Such country may not have the same data protection laws as the country in which you initially provided the information. When we transfer your information to recipients in other countries (such as the United States), we will protect that information as described in this Privacy Policy, and comply with applicable legal requirements by providing adequate protection for the transfer of personal information to data recipients in countries outside of the United States. To the extent that these data recipients are in countries that have not been recognized as providing an adequate level of data protection, we ensure that appropriate safeguards aimed at ensuring such a level of data protection are in place.

 

Use of Cookies by our Site.

Our Site uses a technology called "cookies". A cookie is a tiny element of data that our Site can send to your browser, which may then be stored on your hard drive so we can recognize you when you return. Cookies also allow us to store Users’ preferences and to record session information, for purposes including ensuring that Users are not repeatedly offered the same advertisements and to customize newsletter, mailing list, advertising, and Web page content based on browser type and user profile information. We do not link the information we store in cookies to any Personal Information you submit while on our site. You may be able to configure your browser to accept or reject all or some cookies, or notify you when a cookie is set -- each browser is different, so check the "Help" menu of your browser to learn how to change your cookie preferences -- however, you must enable cookies from our Site in order to use most functions on our Site. Our Site may also use a technology called "tracer tags". These may also be referred to as "Clear GIFs" or "Web Beacons". This technology allows us to understand which pages you visit on our Site. These tracer tags are used to help us optimize and tailor our Site for you and other future website visitors

Links:

Our Site may provide links to other Web sites or resources. These links are for your convenience only and are not under our control. You acknowledge and agree that Aussie Bubs, Inc., and our Site are not responsible for the availability of external Web sites or resources, and Aussie Bubs, Inc., and our Site do not endorse such Web sites, their contents, advertising, products, or other materials. You further agree that Aussie Bubs, Inc., and our Site shall not be responsible or liable, directly or indirectly, for any damage, viruses or loss caused or alleged in connection with your use of content, goods or services available on an external Web site or resources.

Security:

All information, including order information such as credit card number and delivery address, provided to the Site is transmitted through the Internet using SSL (Secure Socket Layer) encryption. SSL, an industry-standard, is a coding system that lets your browser automatically encrypt, or scramble, data before you send it to us. Since any order information you provide to us on the Site will be transmitted using a secure connection, if your Web browser cannot support this level of security, you will not be able to order other items through our Site. The most recent versions of Netscape Navigator™ and Microsoft Internet Explorer® can support a secure connection and can be downloaded for free from the Netscape and Microsoft Web site respectively. We protect account information by placing it on a secure portion of our Site. We do not store credit card information permanently so you must supply the information each time you order.

Unfortunately, no data transmission over the Internet is 100% secure. Aussie Bubs, Inc., and the Site will take reasonable measures which it believes are appropriate to protect your personal information from loss, misuse, alteration or destruction, however, Aussie Bubs, Inc., cannot ensure or warrant the security of that information.

Privacy Statement Modifications:

From time to time we may modify or amend this Privacy Statement in order to comply with new laws or regulations or to reflect future changes in our business practices. Any changes in our policies will be communicated on this page so please check back on occasion. We also may post a notice on our Site or send an email describing the changes.

This Privacy Policy was updated on June 1, 2021, and is effective immediately.
