The Embrazio Privacy Policy

At Embrazio, we want you to enjoy shopping with us and feel confident that we take your privacy seriously. Our privacy policy explains what personally identifiable or personal information we may collect from you when you visit our website, how we use such information, and the choices you have regarding our use of this information.

Security

We are committed to handling your personal information, including your online credit card transactions, with high standards of information security. We take appropriate physical, electronic and administrative steps to maintain the security and accuracy of personally identifiable information we collect, including limiting the number of people who have physical access to our database servers, as well as employing electronic security systems and password protections that guard against unauthorized access. Our website uses encryption technology, such as Secure Sockets Layer (SSL), to protect your personal information during data transport. SSL encrypts ordering information such as your name, address and credit card number. When the letters "http" in the URL change to "https," the "s" indicates you are in a secure area employing SSL; also, your browser may give you a pop-up message that you're about to enter a secure area.

In addition, questions or comments you have for us are deleted once we provide you with the appropriate response.

Privacy policy

This Privacy Policy was last updated on March 20, 2013.

Providing our customers the highest quality products and services, we use information from our interactions with you and other customers, as well as from other parties. Because we respect your privacy, we have implemented procedures designed to handle your personal information in a safe, secure, and responsible manner.

As we take advantage of advances in technology to improve the services we offer, we will post them only on this website so encourage you to refer to this policy on an ongoing basis to understand our current privacy policy.

The information we collect

Generally, you may browse the website without providing any personally identifiable information. However, we may ask you to provide personally identifiable information at various times and places on this website. In some cases, if you choose not to provide us with the requested information, you may not be able to access all of this website or participate in all of its features.

We receive and store any personally identifiable information you enter on the website, whenever you shop with Embrazio online. For example, we may collect the following personally identifiable information: your name, address, telephone number, and e-mail address. If you use a credit or debit card, we will also include your account number. We may also collect personal information about you from third parties, such as demographic firms, to make our future marketing efforts more efficient.

If you use one of our services or participate in one of our promotions or sweepstakes, we may ask for additional information, such as your age, interests, or product preferences.

From your purchases and other interactions with us, we obtain information concerning the specific products or services you purchase or use.

When you visit this website, our web server automatically collects anonymous information such as log data and IP addresses. We may use the automatically collected information for a number of purposes, such as improving our website design, product assortments, customer service, and special promotions.

How we use the information we collect

We use the information we collect for various purposes, including:

  • to complete your purchase transactions
  • to send you offerings by mail
  • to keep you informed about the status of your orders
  • to identify your product and service preferences, so we can notify you of new or additional products, services, and promotions that might be of interest to you
  • to notify you of product recalls or provide other information concerning products you have purchased
  • to improve our merchandise selections, customer service, and overall shopping experience

Who we disclose the information to

We may disclose information to outside companies that help us bring you the products and services we offer. For example, we may work with an outside company to: (a) manage a database of customer information; (b) assist us in distributing e-mails; (c) assist us with direct marketing and data collection; (d) provide us storage and analysis; (d) provide fraud prevention services; and (e) other services designed to assist us in maximizing our business potential.

We will not, however, sell, rent, or share your email address with third parties for marketing purposes without your consent.

Business Transitions: We may transfer or share personal information about you if Embrazio goes through a business transition such as a merger, acquisition, or sale of all or part of its assets in these situations. You will be notified via email or prominent notice on our website prior to a transfer or control of your personal information, if your personal information will be used contrary to this policy. However, nothing in this Privacy Policy is intended to interfere with the ability of Embrazio to transfer all or part of its business and/or assets to an affiliate or independent third party at any time, for any purpose, without any limitation whatsoever. Embrazio specifically reserves the right to transfer or share a copy of personally identifiable information collected from its websites to the buyer of that portion of its business relating to that information.

Compliance with Law: We may provide access to information when legally required to do so to cooperate with police investigations or other legal proceedings, to protect against misuse or unauthorized use of our website, to limit our legal liability and protect our rights or to protect the rights, property, or safety of visitors of this website or the public.

Your choices regarding use of the information we collect

We provide you with a number of choices regarding our handling of your personally identifiable information.

Direct Mail Marketing: If you wish to be removed from the list of customers that receive direct mail, please email us using the contact form provided under the “home” tab on our home page and explicitly state that you do not want to receive direct mail offers.

Because customer lists often are prepared well in advance of an offering (sometimes a few months before the offer is made), you may continue to receive some offers after you send us a request not to use your information for specified marketing purposes. We appreciate your patience and understanding in giving us time to carry out your request.

Your California Privacy Rights

Under California Civil Code sections 1798.83-1798.84, California residents are entitled to ask us for a notice describing what categories of personal customer information we share with third parties or corporate affiliates for those third parties for direct marketing purposes. That notice will identify the categories of information shared and will include a list of the third parties and affiliates with which it was shared, along with their names and addresses. If you are a California resident and would like a copy of this notice, please email us using the contact form provided under the “home” tab on our home page. Please allow 20 days for a response.

Cookies and how we use them

Our website uses "cookie" technology. We use cookies to distinguish you from other visitors, track your IP address and usage of our website, and to identify the name of the website from which you linked to www.embrazio.com. This information is used for fulfilling contracts with our business partners and to help us serve you better by improving our website design, as well as our products, services, and promotions. We do not otherwise track any information about your use of other websites. Non-personally identifiable information obtained through cookies may be shared with or obtained by service providers on our behalf.

A cookie is a small data file that is placed on the hard drive of your computer when you visit a website. A "session cookie" expires immediately when you end your session (i.e., close your browser). A "persistent cookie" stores information on the hard drive so when you end your session and return to the same website at a later date, the cookie information is still available.

When you visit our website, we may use both a session and a persistent cookie. This cookie may contain information (such as a unique user ID) that is used to track your usage of our website and in some cases, your email address. If you register with us, your cookie allows us to recognize you when you return to our website and provides you with access to your account information. If you save your information with or order from us, we may also use cookies to monitor and maintain information about your use of our website. If you have not saved your information with or ordered from us, we may monitor and maintain information about your use of our website in a manner that does not identify you. You can disable cookies at any time by using your browser options; however, if you turn off cookies, we will not be able to track your order or enable you to make a purchase from our website.

Children's privacy

Protecting children's privacy is important to us. Our website is a general audience website. No part of our website is targeted to attract anyone under 13. Children under the age of 13 should always ask their parents or guardians for permission before providing any personal information to anyone online. We urge parents and guardians to participate in their children's online activities and use parental control or other web filtering technology to supervise children's access to the web.

Links to other websites

While visiting www.embrazio.com, you may link to websites operated by our business partners or other third parties. This does not mean that we endorse companies, their products, or their websites. We do not make any representations or warranties about any website you may access through www.embrazio.com. They are independent from us, and we have no control over or responsibility for their information or activities.

In addition, our privacy practices may differ from those of these other websites. If you provide personal information at one of those websites, you are subject to the privacy policy of the operator of that website, not the Embrazio privacy policy. Make sure you understand any website's privacy policies before providing personal information.

Online account registration

To make online shopping faster and easier, you may register with www.embrazio.com. As a registered customer, you only have to enter your shipping addresses and billing information once; they will be securely stored with us for your future use. Using your name and a password of your choice, you may access your account online at any time to add, delete, or change information.

If you are using a public computer, we strongly encourage you to LOG OUT at the conclusion of your session. Your information will still be stored with us but it will not be accessible to anyone else from that computer.
