This includes information provided at the time of registering to use our site, subscribing to our service, requesting further services, and adding/amending information in your account. We may also ask you for information when you report a problem with our site.
  • If you register for an account with us, we will ask for your first and last name, your email address, a password (to be stored in an encrypted format), at the time of registration.
  • If you contact us, we may keep a record of that correspondence. This includes email messages and their attachments, records of phone calls and postal mail that we receive from you.
  • We may ask you to complete surveys that we use for research purposes, although you do not have to respond to them.
  • Details of transactions you carry out through our site and of the fulfilment of your orders.
  • Details of your visits to our site including, but not limited to, traffic data, location data, weblogs and other communication data, whether this is required for our own billing purposes or otherwise and the resources that you access.
  • When you enter payment information, such as your credit card number, these are processed by our payment processor (Stripe) and we do not process or store any payment information, like credit card number or expiry date. For cryptocurrencies payment, you will be redirect to the secure CoinPayments platform to complete the whole process.

 

The data we collect and process is strictly limited to that which is necessary for us to provide our service to you under the lawful bases of consent and/or necessity.

Where we have given you (or where you have chosen) a password or access credentials which enable you to access certain parts of our site, you are responsible for keeping this password confidential. We ask you not to share a password with anyone.

IP Addresses

We may collect information about your computer, including where available your IP address, operating system and browser type, for system administration and to report aggregate information to our partners, providers or advertisers. This is statistical data about our users’ browsing actions and patterns, and does not identify any individual.

If you register for an account with us, we may use your IP address at the time of registration for “geolocation” (meaning that we will infer your likely country of location, based on your IP address). Such geolocation is limited to the country level, and is not guaranteed to be accurate.

Sensitive Informations

We do not request or otherwise collect or store any sensitive personal data (for example: data consisting of racial or ethnic origin, political opinions, religious or philosophical beliefs, trade union membership, genetic data, biometric data, data concerning health, gender or sexual orientation), whether in aggregate or linked to any person or account. If we become aware of any such data being stored or processed in our systems, we will take reasonable steps to erase it.

Cookies

Our website uses specific cookies to distinguish you from other users of our website. This helps us to provide you with a good experience when you browse our website and also allows us to improve our site.

If you visit our login page, we will set a temporary cookie to determine if your browser accepts cookies. This cookie contains no personal data and is discarded when you close your browser.

When you log in, we will also set up several cookies to save your login information and your screen display choices. Login cookies last for two days, and screen options cookies last for a year. If you select “Remember Me”, your login will persist for two weeks. If you log out of your account, the login cookies will be removed.

Where We Store Your Personal Data

Our entire site is available over secure SSL (HTTPS) connection. Information that you provide to us by filling in forms on our site is therefore transferred from your web browser or server using SSL encryption.

When you enter payment information, such as your credit card number, these are processed by our payment processor (Stripe). The checkout page and/or specific form fields where you enter such information are served directly from their secure servers, and we do not process, receive or store your payment details.

The data that we collect from you are transferred to, and stored at, a destination inside the United States where our servers are located. It may also be processed by our staff operating in Brazil. By submitting your personal data, you agree to this transfer, storing or processing. We will take all steps reasonably necessary to ensure that your data is treated securely and in accordance with this Privacy Policy and our codes of practice.

Although we will do our best to protect your personal data, including the use of SSL technology, we cannot guarantee the security of your data transmitted to our site; any transmission is at your own risk. Once we have received your information, we will use strict procedures and security features to try to prevent unauthorised access.
