ChoKoLids Privacy Policy

 

1. Our Commitment to Privacy

ChoKoLids values your time, respects your privacy, and seeks to earn your trust.

We properly collect information about you through the Site (D.B.A. chokolids.com) in an effort to improve your shopping experience and to tell you about our newest products, services, customer care, volume discounts, and seasonal live promotions. Your trust is essential to us, and we are not in the business of selling or renting information about our customers to others. As described in this policy, we may share your information among our brands and, under certain circumstances, with third parties that provide services on our behalf.

In line with these values, our privacy policy may change from time to time. If it does, we will post an updated policy on the Sites and change the “last updated” line above. If we make significant changes to the policy, we will provide appropriate notice to you. Please contact us for any questions about our privacy policy.

 

2. What kind of personal information does ChoKoLids collect?

We may collect personal information from you, such as your name, email address, postal address, phone number, purchase history, credit card number, birthday, gender, and other personal interests that allow us to safely update your account., when you visit one of the Sites or stores, place an order online or by phone, make an in-store purchase, save your information with us online, return an item to back to our facility, contact us with a question or concern, participate in a contest, promotion, survey, or communicate with us in any other way.

We may occasionally collect an individual’s IP address to help identify an individual, gather broad demographic information about users of the Sites, diagnose problems with our systems, and administer the Sites.

 

3. How does ChoKoLids collect this information?

We receive and place any information on file from all website visits.

As is true of most web sites, we gather and store certain information automatically, including Internet Protocol (IP) addresses, browser types, Internet Service Provider (ISP), referring/exit pages, operating system, date/time stamp, and clickstream data. This information does not identify individual users, and is used to analyze trends, to administer the site, to track users’ movements around the site and to gather demographic information about our user base as a whole.

To do this, we use ‘cookies’ or alphanumeric identifiers that we transfer to your computer’s hard drive through your web browser to enable our systems to recognize your browser and to provide features such as storage of items in your Shopping Cart between visits. We use third-party service providers to serve ads on our behalf across the Internet and sometimes on the Sites, as well as send direct mail. If you are concerned about cookies, the “help”, “options” or “preferences” functions on most browsers will allow you to limit or disable cookies altogether. Please understand that “cookies” allow you to take full advantage of our interactive features, and we recommend that you leave them turned on.

Any personal information that we collect will be stored in secure servers hosted in the U.S. We will correct such information whenever possible and delete stale information on an ongoing basis and are very happy to hear from you to ensure that our information is as complete and accurate as possible.

 

4. How does ChoKoLids use your personal information?

The information we learn from customers helps us personalize and improve your shopping experience. In particular, by using the Sites, you agree that we may use your personal information in the following ways:

1. To process and fulfill your order, including sending you email to confirm your order status and shipment.

2. To communicate with you, to send you information about our products, services, contests, and promotions, and to send offers to selected groups of customers on behalf of other businesses. When we send you an offer on behalf of other businesses, we never give that business your name and address. If you do not wish to receive such offers, please let us know, and we will place you on a “do not contact” list.

3. To administer contests and other promotions.

5. Does ChoKoLids share personal information about me?

By using the website, you agree that we may share your personal information in the following ways:

1. We may share information about you with our service providers who manage our customer information and perform services on our behalf, such as fulfilling promotions, sending communications to our customers, validating addresses, and conducting surveys.

2. We may share information about you when we team up with another company to offer or provide products, services, contests, or promotions to our customers.

3. We may share personal information about you to address a security, integrity, or legal threat to the Sites or our business, including for fraud protection and credit risk reduction, to protect the legal rights, privacy or safety of ChoKoLids or our employees, agents and contractors, to enforce our terms of use, to respond to inquiries or requests from government or public authorities in any country in which we operate, including the U.S., or to comply with the law or legal process.

We employ other companies and individuals as agents to perform functions on our behalf. Examples include delivering packages, sending postal mail and email, removing repetitive information from customer lists, analyzing data, providing marketing assistance, processing credit card payments, and providing customer service.

Whenever we share personal information with our agents, we restrict their access to only that information needed to perform their functions, demanding that they provide a comparable level of protection for personal information.

In addition, if you choose to participate in any loyalty program in which ChoKoLids participates, such as Volume Discounts, and you authorize ChoKoLids to provide information about purchases you make to the company administering the program, we will share personal information about you with that company. Loyalty programs allow you to obtain discounts on purchases at our stores, special member-only offers, and VIP access to new product releases and the hottest trends. The information you authorize us to disclose may include your credit card number and the date and amount of your purchase, and may also include your name and other information you have asked us to provide. Please note that once we disclose this information. The monitoring of the Site will always take precautions in accordance.

 

6. How does ChoKoLids keep your information secure?

ChoKoLids is always striving to ensure you a safe and convenient online experience. This goes beyond our technologies to include physical, contractual, and managerial safeguards to protect your personal information.

We work to protect the security of your information during transmission by using Thawte Certified Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) software, which encrypts information you input. We reveal only the last four digits of your credit card numbers when confirming an order. Of course, we transmit the entire credit card number to the appropriate credit card company during order processing.

Security lies in your hands as well. It is important for you to protect against unauthorized access to your password and to your computer. Be sure to sign off when finished using a shared computer. In the event of unauthorized use of your credit card, you must notify your credit card provider in accordance with its reporting rules and procedures.

 

7. What is “phishing”?

“Phishing” is a scam where fraudsters pretend that they represent well-known companies to steal your personal information. If you receive an email claiming to be from ChoKoLids asking you for your personal information, please DO NOT respond. We will never request your password, user name, credit card information or other personal information through email.

 

8. How do I access or change my personal information?

You can access, add or update certain information in the “My Account” section of the Sites, including order tracking and account information. When you update information, your old information is replaced by your new information.

You can ask us to change or update other personal information about you by contacting our Privacy Officer. Any request to update personal information may take up to 10 days for your email request and 6-8 weeks for your postal mail request.

You can unsubscribe or change your subscription to any of our Personal Notification Services at any time.

 

9. How can I control your use of my personal information?

We want to communicate with you only if you want to hear from us. If you prefer not to receive promotional information from one or more of our brands, please provide us with a spoken or written request (email) to our Privacy Officer.

In any such request, please provide us with your full name and the email address you used when you registered with or made a purchase from us.
