At Ellemora , we recognize that our users (“you,” “your,” or “yourself”) are concerned about the use and sharing of their personal information, and we take your privacy seriously. Please read the following to understand our Privacy Policy. By visiting or using the <ellemora.com> website and domain name, any linked pages, features, content, mobile applications, and other services provided by us in connection with the Website (collectively, the “Website”), you agree to abide by the practices and policies outlined in this Privacy Policy. You acknowledge and consent to our collection, usage, and sharing of your information as described herein when using our Website. Any capitalized terms not defined in this Privacy Policy have the meanings assigned to them in our Terms of Use.
Scope of this Privacy Policy
This Privacy Policy pertains to the treatment of personally identifiable information (“Personal Information”) that we collect when you access or use our Website. It does not apply to practices employed by companies not owned or controlled by us, or to individuals not employed or managed by us, even if you access such companies’ websites or services through our Website. We do not knowingly collect or request personal information from individuals under the age of 13, nor do we knowingly allow such individuals to register for our Services (as defined in our Terms of Use). If you are under the age of 13, please refrain from attempting to register for our Services or providing any information about yourself, such as your name, address, phone number, or email address. If we become aware that we have unintentionally collected personal information from a child under the age of 13 without verified parental consent, we will promptly delete such information. If you suspect that we may have collected information from or about a child under 13, please contact us at info@ellemora.com.
Types of Information Collected by Ellemora.
We collect various forms of Personal Information from our users, which we explain in more detail below. This Personal Information is used to enhance and personalize our services, enable user account creation and profiles, facilitate communication with users, fulfill product and service requests, analyze user interactions with the Website, and for other purposes outlined in this Privacy Policy. Some types of Personal Information may be shared with third parties (as specified in this Section and in Section III below). Here are the categories of information we collect:
Information You Provide to Us:
We collect information you knowingly provide to us, including your name, username, phone number, credit card and billing information, email address, shipping address, and email addresses of friends (used only for inviting them to use the Service). We may also gather information about your personal preferences and interests. If you access our Service through Facebook Connect, certain content and/or information from your Facebook account (“Third Party Account Information”) may be transmitted to your account with us, subject to this Privacy Policy. You have the option not to provide some or all of the specified information, but doing so may limit your ability to register or utilize certain features.
We may anonymize your Personal Information so that it cannot be used to identify you individually. We may share this anonymized information with our partners. For example, we allow advertisers to select the demographic information of users who will see their ads, but we do not disclose your identity to them.
Information Collected Automatically: When you interact with our Website, your browser automatically sends us information, including your IP address, “cookie” data, and the requested page. “Cookies” are identifiers that your device or browser accepts, allowing us to recognize your device and track how many people visit our Website and when. You may configure your device or browser to reject or limit cookie acceptance, but this may impact your ability to use certain features on our Website. Our advertising partners may also use cookies when you click on ads on our site. This Privacy Policy does not cover cookies delivered by our advertisers. When we gather usage data (such as website visitor numbers and frequency, as well as which pages are visited), it is done in aggregate form to protect your anonymity. This aggregated usage data may be shared with partners to help them understand how users engage with our Website. For instance, we may place a cookie on your device to record products you have viewed, and then share that information, without personally identifying you, with a third-party website to show you ads for similar products. However, we do not disclose your identity to that third party.
We may also employ “web beacons,” which are files sent to you through the Website by advertising networks we contract with. These web beacons help ad networks provide anonymized, aggregated auditing, research, and reporting services. They also enable ad networks to display targeted ads on other websites you visit. These web beacons may record that you viewed a specific product on our Website and then show you related ads on other sites. Because your web browser must request these ads and web beacons from the ad network’s servers, these companies may view, modify, or place their own cookies, similar to when you request a web page from their site. Many ad networks are part of the Network Advertising Initiative (“NAI”), a consortium of online marketing and analytics firms committed to consumer awareness and responsible business and data management practices. NAI members often allow you to opt out of their cookies or web beacons. Please note that we do not control the policies of third parties, including advertising networks.
Email and Other Communications:
We may contact you via email or other means, such as promotional offers on behalf of other businesses or communication about your Website usage. You may receive confirmations when you open emails from us. If you do not wish to receive emails or other communications from us, you can adjust your account settings accordingly.
Sharing of Personal Information by ellemora
We do not rent or sell personally identifiable Personal Information to any third parties. We share personally identifiable Personal Information with third parties as outlined below:
Affiliated Businesses and Uncontrolled Third-Party Websites:
In certain cases, businesses or third-party websites affiliated with us may offer products or services to you through our Website. We may share your personally identifiable Personal Information with these affiliated businesses as necessary for the relevant transaction or service. Such services may include the ability to transmit information automatically from your <firm name> account to an account on a third-party website, like Facebook.
We do not have control over the privacy policies and practices of third-party websites or businesses, so when you engage in transactions or services with affiliated websites or businesses, please review their respective privacy policies.
Agents:
We contract with other companies and individuals to perform tasks on our behalf, requiring us to share your information with them. Our agents are limited to using the Personal Information we share with them solely for the purposes of assisting us in performing these tasks.
User Profiles and Content:
Certain user profile information, such as usernames and uploaded image content, may be displayed to other users to facilitate interaction within the Website or fulfill your service requests. Any content you upload to your public user profile, along with any Personal Information or content you voluntarily disclose online in a manner other users can view (on discussion boards, in messages and chat areas, etc.), becomes publicly accessible and may be collected and used by others. Your username may also be displayed to other users when you post comments or upload images through the Website, and other users can contact you through these comments. If you sign into the Services via Facebook Connect, your list of Facebook “friends” may be imported to the Services, and such friends, if registered users of the Services, may access certain non-public information from your Services user profile. Please note that we do not control the policies and practices of third-party sites or services.
Business Transfers:
We may opt to buy or sell assets, and in such transactions, customer information (which may include your Personal Information) is typically one of the transferred assets. If we (or substantially all of our assets) are acquired or if we go out of business or enter bankruptcy, Personal Information would be one of the assets transferred to or acquired by a third party.
Protection of <firm name> and Others:
We may release Personal Information when we believe it is necessary to comply with laws, enforce our terms and agreements, protect our rights, property, or safety, or respond to governmental authorities. We may also exchange information with other companies and organizations for fraud prevention and credit risk reduction.
With Your Consent:
Except as specified in this Privacy Policy, you will be notified and given the option to prevent the sharing of your Personal Information with third parties.
Security of Personal Information:
Your account is secured with a password for your privacy and security. If you access your account via Facebook Connect, additional sign-on protections through Facebook may apply. To prevent unauthorized access to your account and Personal Information, protect your password (or other sign-on protections) and log out after using your account on shared computers or devices.
We strive to safeguard the privacy of your account and other Personal Information in our records, but we cannot guarantee complete security. Unauthorized access or use, hardware or software failures, and other factors may compromise the security of user information at any time. Our Website may contain links to other sites. We are not responsible for the privacy policies and practices of other websites. When you visit another site through a link on our Website, you should read that site’s privacy policy.
Accessing Personal Information
Through your account settings, you may access, and sometimes edit or delete, certain information you have provided to us, including:
- Name and password
- Email address
- Shipping and billing information
- User profile information and user content, including uploaded images
The information you can access and update may change as the Website evolves. If you have questions about viewing or updating information we hold about you, please contact us at info@ellemora.com.
Your Choices
You always have the option not to disclose information to us. However, please note that we may require some information for registration or to access certain features. Choosing not to provide this information may limit your ability to use our Website and services. You may be able to add, modify, or delete information as outlined in Section V above. When you update information, we may retain a copy of the previous information in our records. We may use aggregated data derived from or incorporating your Personal Information even after you update or delete it. However, we will not use this information in a way that identifies you personally. If you do not wish to receive emails or other communications from us, you can adjust your account settings accordingly. Please be aware that if you choose not to receive legal notices from us, such as this Privacy Policy, these legal notices will still apply to your use of the Website, and you are responsible for reviewing such legal notices for any changes.
Changes to this Privacy Policy
We may modify this Privacy Policy periodically. The use of information collected now is subject to the Privacy Policy in effect at the time of such use. If we change the way we use Personal Information, we will notify you by posting an announcement on our Website or by contacting you directly through email or other means. Your use of the Website after such changes have been posted means you are bound by the updated Privacy Policy.
