The information we collect may include:
PERSONAL DATA
Personal Data is information that can be used to identify you specifically, including your name, shipping address, email address, telephone number, or demographic information like your age, gender, or hometown. You consent to giving us this information by providing it to us voluntarily on our website or any mobile application. You provide some of this information when you register with or purchase services from our website.

Derivative data may also include data collected by third-party service providers, such as advertising and analytics providers, and may include cookies, log data, or web beacons.

HOW WE USE YOUR INFORMATION
Your information allows us to offer you certain products and services, to fulfill our obligations to you, to customize your interaction with our company and website, and to suggest other products and services we think might interest you. We generally store your data and transmit it to a third party for processing.

Specifically, we may use the information and data described above to: create and administer your account; deliver any products or services purchased by you; correspond with you; process payments or refunds; contact you about new offerings we think you will be interested in; interact with you via social media; send you a newsletter or updates about our company; deliver targeted advertising; request feedback; notify you of updates to our service offerings; resolve disputes and troubleshoot problems; administer contests or giveaways; generate a profile personalized to you; compile anonymous statistical data for our own use or for a third party’s use; assist law enforcement as necessary; prevent fraudulent activity; and analyze trends to improve our website and offerings.
