OVERVIEW

• We collect Personal Information (defined below) from you that identifies you as an individual when it is voluntarily provided by you, such as your name, email address, mailing address and credit or debit card information.

Personal Information as used herein is information, or a combination of pieces of information, which could reasonably allow you to be identified (“Personal Information”).

Information We Collect From You:
When using the Website, in order to utilize some of the services that may be available, such as making purchases, signing up for email alerts or providing customer feedback or returns, you may be asked to provide, or you may choose to provide, certain Personal Information. In addition, we may also collect information from you automatically, such as IP host addresses, web pages viewed, browser type, referring pages, usage and browsing habits and similar data.

We may aggregate or deidentify Personal Information we collect in a manner which does not identify any individual (“Aggregate Information”). We reserve the right to use and disclose Aggregate Information in any manner permitted by law except as otherwise provided in this Privacy Policy.

Automatic data collection:

The information that we automatically collect may include Personal Information, or we may maintain or associate automatically collected information with Personal Information collected in other ways or received from third parties. Such information is used to help us to improve the Site or Services and to make them more personalized. We may automatically collect:

o          details of your use of the Site or Services, such as traffic data, location data (including GPS and IP based location identification), logs, and other communication data and the resources that you access and use through the Site;

o          information about your device and internet connection, such as your IP address, operating system, and browser type; and

o          information about you regarding your current and historical usage of the Site and other data associated therewith.

Likewise, we may collect information stored by third parties such as, but not limited to vendors, suppliers, plugin providers and social network or media sites (such as by way of example only, and not limitation, Facebook, Google and Twitter) that are integrated into our Site. The data we have access to varies by site and is controlled by your privacy settings on that site and your authorization.  By associating an account managed by a third party with your Site account and authorizing us to have access to this information, you agree that we may collect, store and use this information in accordance with this Privacy Policy and our Terms of Use.

We may also obtain information from or about you in other ways. For example, we may verify user information with a band or credit facility. We may use your information alone or in combination with additional information we collect from other third parties or sources, as authorized and permitted by law. Also, we collect the information you send to us such as correspondence, customer satisfaction surveys or customer service communications, testimonials or content provided by you, such as photos, blogs and writings.

Information Usage:
We will only use your Personal Information as described herein, unless you have specifically consented to another type of use, either at the time the Personal Information is collected from you or through some other form of consent from you or notification to you:

• We may use your Personal Information to respond to your inquiries or requests or to carry out transactions authorized by you.
• We may use your Personal Information to send you emails from time to time about our services and to manage our events, but we will not provide your Personal Information to third parties for them to contact you directly unless otherwise permitted by this Privacy Policy or you provide your consent.
• We may permit our vendors and subcontractors to access and process your Personal Information, but they are only permitted to do so in connection with performing services for us; they are not authorized by us to use the information for their own benefit. HOWEVER, the Site uses third party tools in connection with some of the Services provided. 1822 Denim does not have any control over how your Personal Information is used by the providers of the third party tools. We strongly recommend you review the privacy policies and terms of service of any tool provider to make an informed decision about your usage of such tools.

Sharing of Personal Information:

• Internet or other similar network activity.

You should be aware that Personal Information which you voluntarily include and transmit online in a publicly accessible blog, chat room, social media platform or otherwise online may be viewed and used by others without any restrictions.

You can set your browser to notify you when you receive a cookie, flush any cookies that may already be on your computer and/or device or refuse to accept cookies. You should understand that some features of many sites may not function properly if you don’t accept cookies. Further information on cookies is available at www.allaboutcookies.org. By deleting our cookies or disabling future cookies you may not be able to access certain areas or features of the Website or some of its functionality may be affected.

Subject to local law, you may also have certain rights regarding information that we have collected and that is related to you. See “Additional EU Disclosures”, “California Consumer Rights” and “Nevada Privacy Rights” below for more information on your additional rights over the collection, use and disclosure of your information under those jurisdictions.

California Consumer Rights
If you are a California resident (“California Consumer”), under CCPA, you have specific rights regarding your Personal Information. This section describes the rights that you have under CCPA or similar laws under your jurisdiction (if any) and explains how to exercise those rights.

Right to Know About Personal Information Collected, Disclosed or Sold
As a California Consumer, you have the right to request that we disclose certain information to you about our collection, use, disclosure or sale of your Personal Information over the past 12 months. Once we receive and confirm your verifiable consumer request (see “Exercising Access and Deletion Rights”), and subject to certain limitations that we describe below, we will disclose such information. You have the right to request any or all of the following:

• The categories of Personal Information we collected about you.
• The categories of sources from which the Personal Information is collected.
• Our business or commercial purpose for collecting or selling that Personal Information.
• The categories of third parties with whom we share that Personal Information.
• The specific pieces of Personal Information we collected about you (also called a data portability request).

Deletion Request Rights
You have the right to request that we delete any of your Personal Information that we collected from you and retained, subject to certain exceptions. Once we receive and confirm your verifiable consumer request (see “Exercising Access and Deletion Rights”), we will delete (and direct our service providers to delete) your Personal Information from our records, unless an exception applies. However, we maybe retain Personal Information that has been de-identified or aggregated. Furthermore, we may deny your deletion request if retaining the information is necessary for us or our service provider(s) in order to perform certain actions in accordance with applicable laws, set forth under CCPA, such as detecting security incidents and protecting against fraudulent or illegal activity.

Exercising Access and Deletion Rights
To exercise the access and deletion rights described above, please submit a request to us by emailing us at customerservice@1822denim.com.

Only you, or a person or business entity registered with the California Secretary of State that you authorize to act on your behalf (each an “authorized agent”), may make the requests set forth above. The request should include your contact information and describe your request with sufficient detail that allows us to properly understand, evaluate, and respond to it. In addition, you should provide sufficient information that allows us to reasonably verify that you are the person about whom we collected the Personal Information or an authorized representative of that person. For more information about verification, see “Response Timing and Format” immediately below.

Response Timing and Format
We will respond to consumer requests in a reasonably timely manner. If we require extra time to respond, we will inform you of the reason and extension period in writing. In order to protect the security of your Personal Information, we will not honor a request if we cannot verify your identity or authority to make the request and confirm the Personal Information relates to you. The method used to verify your identity will depend on the type, sensitivity and value of the information, including the risk of harm to you posed by any authorized access or deletion. Generally speaking, verification will be performed by matching the identifying information provided by you to the Personal Information that we already have.

Any disclosures we provide will only cover the 12-month period preceding our receipt of your request (and will not be made more than twice in a 12-month period). If we cannot comply with a request, or cannot fully comply with a request, the response we provide will also explain the reasons why we cannot comply.

Non-Discrimination
We will not discriminate against you for exercising any of your CCPA rights.

Nevada Privacy Rights
If you are a Nevada resident, you have the right to request that we do not sell (as defined by N.R.S. 603A) certain personal information that we have collected, or may collect, from you. We do not “sell” your personal information as defined by N.R.S. 603A, however, if you would like to make such a request you may do so by contacting us at customerservice@1822denim.com.

Additional EU Disclosures
Grounds for Using Your Personal Data:

We rely on the following legal basis to process your Personal Information:

• It may be necessary for us to use and disclose your Personal Information for the performance and fulfillment of the contract between us and to provide you with our services;

• If you specifically consent to certain uses of your Personal Information, we may use your Personal Information in a manner consistent with that consent; and
• We will also process, transfer, disclose and preserve Personal Information when we have a good faith belief that doing so is necessary.
