We use the internet also and are always concerned about our privacy when shopping online or submitting information online. What will happen to that information? Will it be sold? Our privacy policy is very simple, we will never sell or transfer your information unless to third party companies that we work with in the regular course of business like FedEx, USPS, Pilot and Agiliron (our internal ERP system), period. Protective Enclosures Company will protect your privacy at all costs and will not share your information with anyone else.
Essential information we collect
In operating our store, it is essential for us to capture some information about your device, such as
your IP address and information related to your visit when you browse our store. For example, this
might include time-stamp, the last page or product you visited or the indication that you logged in.
We do that in order to:
● remember who you are after you log in so that you do not need to authenticate at each
click;
● monitor if our website is running with the high performance we are dedicated to
providing;
● let you browse between products without having to start back from the home page at
each click;
● remember if you put something in your shopping cart before you decide to checkout; and
● control that your data is processed securely.
We call the information mentioned above “essential information” and we collect it through the
use of cookies. Cookies are small text files that most websites use. A website places cookies in the
web browser and then reads the information collected through the cookies every time the user
performs an action. We use cookies. Without enabling this mechanism and this type of cookie
(first-party cookies), we could not provide you with the smooth experience that you expect while
you are navigating our websites.
Order information you expressly provide
If you buy something from our store, we will need more specific information about you. To fully
process your order and ship the merchandise you selected, we need your personal data such as
your first and last name, your email address and your shipping and billing address. We also use
your contact and order information to send you communication related to the processing of your
order. We will ask you to provide this information in our “checkout page” before letting you
finalize your purchase with the payment.
Accounts
You can sign up for an account if you’d like. This will make us happy because it confirms your
interest in our store. It should also make you happy because we will remember your information and, when you decide to buy our products, you do not have to provide all your information over again -- you just have to log-in. Before registering your account, we will ask you to expressly provide your consent to this privacy policy. We will open your account only if you give us your consent. We also offer you the possibility to easily withdraw your consent and delete your account. Just connect with us at the contact details at the bottom of the page.
Partial Purchases
If you started to buy one of our products, but have not completed the purchase, you may
have provided partial information, such as your email. In that case, we might send you an email to remind you about your interest. If you are not comfortable in receiving further emails of this kind, we will give you a simple opportunity to opt out. Your privacy means a lot to us and we will stop these communications right away.
Reviews
If you have completed a purchase, we will send you an email to ask you to review the product you bought. We want to be sure that whether you love your purchase or have a complaint, you can share your opinion with other customers.
Personalization
We also use some specific information related to your visit, such as the timestamp of your visit, the page or the product you viewed or where you are coming from (if you came to our store because you clicked on an advertisement or you just opened our direct link). This is very similar to the “essential information,” but we use it to provide you with a personalized experience. The
information on your visit provides us with insights on your interests and allows us to send you
relevant communications. We capture this information through cookies, called "beacons," that
we allow you to block. If you provided us with an email we may also use your information to send emails with new products, product updates, sales and other informational material.
Other uses of personal data
We do not authorize any of our third-party vendors to use your information for any other purpose except to do things like complete a shipment to you, send shipping notifications, send order details, stock notifications and other standard notifications needed in the course of business to get you the products you ordered.
How do we process your information?
We use an external provider to run our store, BigCommerce. BigCommerce is based in the United States and is a participant in the EU-US Privacy Shield Framework and committed to providing best-in-class service and data protection. You can check its participation in the Privacy Shield here on the official site of The International Trade Administration (ITA), U.S. Department of Commerce.
Through BigCommerce, we also use other, highly-specialized external providers to provide the
most competitive services. For example: FedEx, Pilot LTL, USPS, Agiliron (internal ERP/CRM system), Wufoo, Live Chat and our third-party manufacturing facilities.
● Payment: Our store is PCI-DSS compliant (a very strict industry standard with
requirements for the security of credit card information), but we want to use accredited
companies to process your credit card information.
● Shipping: We integrate with several shipping companies to fulfill your orders.
Partnering with highly specialized external companies allows us to focus on what we do best:
selling great products.
How can you control your personal data?
If you are one of our customers who is in the EU, and we are specifically selling our products to the Member State where you are located, you have specific rights that we are honored to enforce without undue delay: Access, Correct, Erasure, Port, Object. If you cannot exercise your choice on your account page or if you do not have an account with us, please reach out to us, at the contact details at the bottom of this page. We will be more than happy to help.
How long do we keep your data?
We keep your data for as long as you have an account with us. We also keep some data for security investigation. Most importantly, we have specific obligations for fraud detection and tax reasons. Therefore, we might need to retain certain data even if you ask us to delete it.
Do we have any legal obligations when handling your data?
Many. We might need to share your personal information to comply with applicable legal
obligations. This includes chargebacks, fraud cases and any other legal matters.
