SECTION 6 – USING PERSONAL INFORMATION

We use your personal Information to provide our services to you, which includes: offering products for sale, processing payments, shipping and fulfillment of your order, and keeping you up to date on new products, services, and offers.

Pow Gloves UK   is committed to protecting the privacy of you, our customers, and we recognise the importance that keeping information confidential is paramount to us all.

Due to the nature of our website it is often necessary and helpful to obtain personal information from you to assist the processing of your order.  We will only request and use personal information we reasonably consider necessary to conduct our business.  The information we request will only be minimal and it is our policy to handle this information responsibly at all times.

The information we collect is as follows:

  • Your Name
  • Your date of birth 
  • Your Email
  • Your phone number
  • Postal address
  • Credit card details via the secure payment gateway (not retained by us).

Any information you provide us will be used to:

  • Enable us to process orders;
  • Help us to develop this site to be more useful and interesting to you;
  • Inform you about our specials, sales, product information and promotions which will include the forwarding by email of catalogues, newsletters and promotions.  You can ask to have these withdrawn at any time;
  • Improve the services that we provide to you via our website;
  • Analyse the site design and traffic information so we can continually improve site content and design.

You can access your personal information that we do hold and you can update or delete the information at any time.

Any information you provide is not:

  • Sold or shared with any company or individual, unless required to do so legally;
  • Shared internally but is only viewed on a need to know basis. 

You can unsubscribe from newsletters at any time and membership of our site is fully optional.

There are a number of important aspects of our Privacy Policy and we recommend that you read through this information carefully as it has been set up to protect you.

  • When you place orders we use a secure server.  The secure server software (SSL) encrypts all information you input before it is sent to us. Just so you know all of the sensitive data we collect is protected by several layers of encryption and several layers of security to prevent unauthorised access.
  • If you pay online and you are using your credit card, the card details are not viewed by us or any person except you during the transaction.  The details are encrypted and passed directly to the bank.  Payment by credit card is the fastest way to receive your order as there is no clearance delay.  We do not store any credit card information on our servers. (See payment information below).
  • Just so you know our website uses cookies which are small amounts of information stored in your computer by our website server.  Our cookies do not contain any personal identifying information but they allow you to place your order online and to login once you have subscribed.  Most web browsers normally allow cookies, but you can change your browser to prevent that. See Cookie processes and protocols below.

Please note that whilst we make every effort to protect the security of your personal information, we cannot be held responsible for any unauthorised access to this information.

You have consented to our Privacy Policy by using the Union Binding Company  website and if we decide to change our privacy policy we will post these changes on this page so that you are always aware of what information we collect, how we use it, and under what circumstances we disclose it.

If you have any further questions about our Privacy Policy which is there to protect you we welcome back your feedback.  Please feel free to contact us at info@principledistribution.com.au

Our processor Shopify uses limited automated decision-making to prevent fraud that does not have a legal or otherwise significant effect on you.

 

 

SECTION 7 -PAYMENT

If you choose a direct payment gateway to complete your purchase, then Shopify stores your credit card data. It is encrypted through the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI-DSS). Your purchase transaction data is stored only as long as is necessary to complete your purchase transaction. After that is complete, your purchase transaction information is deleted.
All direct payment gateways adhere to the standards set by PCI-DSS as managed by the PCI Security Standards Council, which is a joint effort of brands like Visa, Mastercard, American Express and Discover.
PCI-DSS requirements help ensure the secure handling of credit card information by our store and its service providers.
For more insight, you may also want to read Shopify’s Terms of Service (https://www.shopify.com/legal/terms) or Privacy Statement (https://www.shopify.com/legal/privacy).

SECTION 8 - THIRD-PARTY SERVICES

In general, the third-party providers used by us will only collect, use and disclose your information to the extent necessary to allow them to perform the services they provide to us.
However, certain third-party service providers, such as payment gateways and other payment transaction processors, have their own privacy policies in respect to the information we are required to provide to them for your purchase-related transactions.
For these providers, we recommend that you read their privacy policies so you can understand the manner in which your personal information will be handled by these providers.
In particular, remember that certain providers may be located in or have facilities that are located a different jurisdiction than either you or us. So if you elect to proceed with a transaction that involves the services of a third-party service provider, then your information may become subject to the laws of the jurisdiction(s) in which that service provider or its facilities are located.
As an example, if you are located in Canada and your transaction is processed by a payment gateway located in the United States, then your personal information used in completing that transaction may be subject to disclosure under United States legislation, including the Patriot Act.
Once you leave our store’s website or are redirected to a third-party website or application, you are no longer governed by this Privacy Policy or our website’s Terms of Service.

SECTION 9 - SECURITY

To protect your personal information, we take reasonable precautions and follow industry best practices to make sure it is not inappropriately lost, misused, accessed, disclosed, altered or destroyed.
If you provide us with your credit card information, the information is encrypted using secure socket layer technology (SSL) and stored with a AES-256 encryption. Although no method of transmission over the Internet or electronic storage is 100% secure, we follow all PCI-DSS requirements and implement additional generally accepted industry standards.
