We also try to make it as simple as possible for you to control the information you share through the Chimes Website – whether such information is kept private, becomes publicly available by search engine index, is shared with some of our third party service providers or gets permanently deleted.
  • II.

    2. Information We Collect Automatically:
      • (a) Information Collected Through Cookies And Other Similar Technologies:  A cookie is a small amount of information that a web server sends to your Internet browser.  Generally, cookies are used to support the operation of a variety of features provided on a website.  For instance, on the Chimes Website, cookies are used to support a variety of webstore functions that allow you to purchase items featured on the website.  The Chimes Website also uses cookies to collect information about how you interacted with our website. This allows us to remember you and your preferences.  For example, by continuing to browse the site, you are agreeing to our use of cookies. Also, if you were to click on the “I CONSENT” option in the cookie banner presented when you arrive at the Chimes Website, then the cookies from our website would be stored on your computer (such as a PC, cell phone or pad) when our website is loaded in a browser on your computer.   For more information about our use of cookies and other technologies for tracking and the options for you to control the use of cookies, please see our Cookie PolicyThrough use of cookies and similar technologies that are set on the Chimes Website, we collect the following information:
      • Usage information:  We keep track of activities on the Chimes Website from users, how users interact with the website and our website’s performance.
      • Log information:  We log information about our visitors use of the Chimes Website.  As indicated in our Cookie Policy, we use Google Analytics which logs information about how many people are viewing the pages, usage statistics, and error messages.  The log information includes collection of Internet Protocol (“IP”) addresses from users. Since we utilize WooCommerce to provide e-commerce services, WooCommerce Usage Tracker technology may track your information about the location of your IP addresses to provide information about the location of our customers.
    3. Information We Collect About You from Third Parties: We may also receive information about you from third parties that provide necessary services such as payment processing and shipping services.  For example, we utilize WooCommerce, an e-commerce platform provided by WordPress, to process purchase transactions on the Chimes Website. Through the shopping cart in the Chimes webstore, we offer our customers the option to checkout with PayPal or through Stripe, a payment service provided by WooCommerce.  Therefore, we may receive contact information such as your email address or phone number associated with PayPal or Stripe. Furthermore, shipping services provided by USPS and FedEx/DHL may provide us with updated or corrected delivery addresses for customer purchases.  In addition, if you log in to the Chimes Website through your Facebook account or have linked your Chimes account with your Google or Facebook accounts, Roxy may receive information from that service (such as your username and friends list, etc.) as a result of the authorization procedures for that service.  These are just some examples of many ways that your Personal Information may automatically be transmitted to us by third parties over the Internet.
  • III. How We Use and Share The Information Collected Through The Chimes Website  
    • 1. How Roxy Uses Your Information:  We may use the information collected from visitors to our website for a variety of purposes, including to:
      1. Set up a user account;
      2. Process and complete purchase transactions;
      3. Provide, operate and maintain webstore services;
      4. Respond to inquiries and comments and provide customer service and support;
      5. Send alerts and security notifications; and 
      6. Investigate and prevent fraudulent activities such as unauthorized access to the Chimes Website.
    • 2. Third Parties With Whom We May Share Your Information We may share your information with third party vendors, consultants and other service providers who perform necessary services for the Chimes webstore.  Third parties that provide necessary services include, for example, our e-commerce provider, WooCommerce, payment processing providers such as Stripe and PayPal, the U.S. Postal Service, FedEx and UPS (just to name a few) that provide shipping services, email service providers (e.g., The Rocket Science Group, LLC which provides Mailchimp services) and Internet service providers.  Roxy does not sell personal information collected through the Chimes Website in exchange for any monetary consideration.  However, if we were to share your personal information with third parties (through the use of cookies and similar technologies) that provide useful services which are not considered “essential,” such sharing could be deemed a “sale,” as defined by the California Consumer Privacy Act (Cal. Civ. Code 1798.140(t)(1)).  This includes sharing identifiers, commercial information and Internet or other electronic network activity with website analytics companies such as Google and Facebook that provide pixel tools which help us provide the kinds of products and marketing on our website that our customers want to see on the Chimes Website.  
    • 3. Third Parties’ Cookies, Technologies and Privacy Policies The third parties that provide necessary services for the Chimes webstore set cookies and similar technologies on the Chimes Website.  Consequently, interacting with third party software means that you are providing information about yourself to those third parties. For example, some third-party services may request or require access to your data via cookie/pixel.  Please note that if you use a third-party’s service or grant access, your data will be handled in accordance with that third party’s privacy policies and practices.  On the Chimes Website, we utilize the WooCommerce system to provide webstore services for our customers.  Automattic Inc. owns WooCommerce and operates WordPress. WooCommerce is WordPress’ e-commerce platform. As a result, even though Roxy uses WooCommerce’s software primarily to provide the webstore services on the Chimes Website, Roxy does not own or control the software or technology associated with WooCommerce or any WordPress software associated with Automattic Inc.  Therefore, when you browse and purchase products featured on the Chimes Website, you would be using the software of third parties such as Automattic, Stripe (which provides WooCommerce Payments) and PayPal. These platforms have their own rules about information collection, use, and sharing. Therefore, when you purchase products through the Chimes Website, the following privacy policies may apply to you and you should review them before using their software or services:
      1. WooCommerce: https://www.shopify.com/legal/privacy
      2. Stripe: https://stripe.com/privacy
      3. PayPal - https://www.paypal.com/us/webapps/mpp/ua/privacy-full
      • Additionally, unless you “decline” the use of cookies and similar technologies by customizing your settings as explained below in Section V, Paragraph 1, the following privacy policies may also apply:  
      1. Google: https://marketingplatform.google.com/about/analytics/terms/us/ ; and www.google.com/analytics/learn/privacy.html.
      2. Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/policies/.  
  • IV. Security Presently, there is no company or service can guarantee complete security. Unauthorized entry or use, hardware or software failure, and other factors, may compromise the security of user information at any time.  However, we take reasonable measures to protect information about you. If you have opened an account with us, your account is protected by a password for your privacy and security. You must prevent unauthorized access to your account and Personal Information by selecting and protecting your password appropriately and limiting access to your computer or device and browser by signing off after you have finished accessing your account.
