The Information We Collect

Each time you visit our website Personal Data is collected. That information is specific to your visit. Depending your actions, different and unique information is gathered. The below information details the types of information we collect, how it is gathered and what is done with it.

IP Address, Cookies, Pixel Tags and Gifs: Non-identifying Information

Part of each visit to our website and online store is registered through an IP address that may help us diagnose issues with our servers and correct errors. Your IP address also allows us to gather broad, non-personal demographics that help us to analyze traffic patterns and how our site is browsed.

In order to monitor the success and usage of our email marketing campaigns, our website and online store may implement 'message format' or 'message open' sensing technology. These technologies require pixel tags or clear Gifs which are unseen to the user, but send the appropriate information to our tracking system. This information allows us to identify if your email accepts HTML or text only emails so that we may send you the appropriate format.
