PRIVACY POLICY PROTECTING YOUR PRIVACY

 

Our website address is: https://www.philadelphiajudoclub.com

 

PhiladelphiaJudoClub.com (“Philadelphia Judo Club” or “Philadelphia Judo Club”, or “we”, “us”, or “our”) is committed to protecting the privacy of your personal information. This Privacy Policy (the “Policy”) applies to those Philadelphia Judo Club websites that display or link to this Policy (referred to in this Policy as the “Website”). This Policy also applies to other services, including stores, that display or link to these terms. It does not apply to those Philadelphia Judo Club sites, services, and products that have their own privacy policies. This Policy describes the information we collect and how we use and disclose it. By visiting our Website and using our services, you are accepting the practices described in this Policy. If you do not agree to the terms of this Policy, please do not use the Website or the relevant services.

 

CONSENT TO COLLECTION AND PROCESSING

 

The Website and our services may be operated, in whole or in part, from a country other than the United States. You consent to having your personal information transferred to and processed outside of the United States.

 

WHAT PERSONAL DATA WE COLLECT AND WHY WE COLLECT IT

 

While you visit our site, we’ll track:

 

• Products you’ve viewed: we’ll use this to, for example, show you products you’ve recently viewed
• Location, IP address and browser type: we’ll use this for purposes like estimating taxes and shipping
• Shipping address: we’ll ask you to enter this so we can, for instance, estimate shipping before you place an order, and send you the order!
• We’ll also use cookies to keep track of cart contents while you’re browsing our site.

 

When you purchase from us, we’ll ask you to provide information including your name, billing address, shipping address, email address, phone number, credit card/payment details and optional account information like username and password. We’ll use this information for purposes, such as, to:

 

• Send you information about your account and order
• Respond to your requests, including refunds and complaints
• Process payments and prevent fraud
• Set up your account for our store
• Comply with any legal obligations we have, such as calculating taxes
• Improve our store offerings
• Send you marketing messages, if you choose to receive them

 

If you create an account, we will store your name, address, email, and phone number, which will be used to populate the checkout for future orders.

 

We generally store information about you for as long as we need the information for the purposes for which we collect and use it, and we are not legally required to continue to keep it. For example, we will store order information for 5 years for tax and accounting purposes. This includes your name, email address, and billing and shipping addresses.

 

We will also store comments or reviews, if you choose to leave them.

 

Except as disclosed below, we don’t sell, trade, give away, or rent your personal information to any third party outside of Philadelphia Judo Club. One of the basic principles we’ve tried to follow is to limit the information we collect from and share about you. This section describes how we may collect information through both online and offline channels.

 

We collect and store information that you provide to us, including through the Website or our Customer Service Department or that we receive from third parties (such as companies providing commercially available databases).

 

For example, when you place an order, we collect and store some or all of the following information that you provide: name, billing address, shipping address, email address, telephone number, and credit card number and expiration date. If you sign up for a Philadelphia Judo Club account, which allows you to use the same sign-in details anywhere in the world, we will ask for your name, e-mail address, date of birth and password. If you select to be logged in persistently, basic profile information like e-mail, first name, last name and a unique identifier for your account will be stored for up to 30 days in the browser that was used for the login. We will also collect the following additional information, if you choose to provide it when you sign-up for an account: telephone number, gender, personal preferences, social identifier if you choose to log in to your account via social media and age. If you choose to apply certain discount codes when making purchases, we may store the information associated with that code – which may include, for example, a school or veteran status, and connect that information with your profile. We collect your e-mail addresses and zip code if you subscribe to our newsletter and we collect your mobile number if you opt in to receive text messages. You may unsubscribe at any time by following the instructions located within each newsletter or linked to each text message. We also collect and store your geolocation information. Registration may be required and personal information collected in certain areas of the Website in which you specifically and knowingly provide such information, e.g. community postings (i.e., chat or bulletin boards), suggestions, or customer service requests.

 

NON-PERSONAL USAGE INFORMATION

 

Through your use of our Website, we may also gather certain information about your use of our Website (“Usage Information”). Generally, this information is collected through “traffic data”. We collect and store certain other information automatically whenever you interact with our Website. For example, we collect your IP address, browser information and reference site domain name every time you visit our Website. We also collect information regarding customer traffic patterns and site usage. This information is used to analyze and improve our Website, to provide our customers with a fulfilling shopping experience, and to personalize the Website, our communications with you, and your shopping experience.

 

HOW DO WE USE COOKIES AND SIMILAR TECHNOLOGY, ADVERTISING, AND ONLINE TRACKING?

 

Like many websites, we and our third-party partners, such as advertising networks, social media widgets, and analytics providers, use “cookies” – files stored on a computer’s hard drive by a browser, and other similar technology to provide, monitor, and customize the Website and its usage and our email communications to you. Cookies also allow us to hold selections in a shopping cart when you leave the Website without checking out and to send you email communications about your activity on the Website, shopping orders, and other shopping opportunities. For example, we may send you emails to remind you about unpurchased items in your shopping cart or to notify you that an item in your shopping cart has changed in price, and we can determine whether the messages were opened. Our partners also may collect and combine information about your online activities over time, on other devices, and on other websites or apps, if those websites and apps also use the same partners. Our partners may use the information to tailor advertisements shown to you for goods and services on the Website, on other websites and apps, and in email communications. We do not control these cookies, and these cookies are not subject to this Statement. For example, we also use third party companies, including Google Analytics and Google Adwords, to measure and target ads on our behalf about products and services tailored to your interests. We allow these third-party companies to use cookies, web beacons, pixel tags and similar technologies to collect or receive information about your interaction with us on our Website and elsewhere on the internet (“Tracking Data”) and use such Tracking Data to display ads for Philadelphia Judo Club and other companies when you visit this or other websites.

 

You have the option to set your browser to reject cookies and to tell you when a cookie is being placed on your computer. Each browser is different, so check the “Help” menu of your browser to learn how to change your cookie preferences. If you choose to decline cookies, some of the functionality of the Website may be impaired.

WHAT STEPS ARE TAKEN TO HELP SECURE PERSONAL INFORMATION?

We believe you should be able to shop online with confidence, and no one should give personal information to a company that doesn’t follow secure data practices. We aim to deliver excellence to you in every way. That includes information security. We use reasonable security procedures to protect your information. However, no data transferred over the Internet is guaranteed to be 100% secure. Consequently, we cannot ensure or warrant the security of your information and you understand that any information that you transfer or transmit to us is done at your own risk. Personal information collected at our Website is stored in secure operating environments that are not available to the public. To protect the security of your information during transmission, we may use Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) software, which encrypts information you input. Most browsers will give a visual indication of when your connection is secure; for example, Internet Explorer will show a padlock icon in the lower right of the browser window. If you place an order through our Website, you may have the option to set up an account and provide an email address and password. In order to help protect your personal information, you should be careful about providing your password to others. If you wish to cancel your account, or if you become aware of any loss, theft or unauthorized use of your password, please contact our Customer Service immediately.

When visitors leave comments on the site we collect the data shown in the comments form, and also the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent string to help spam detection.
