Smackerz Privacy Policy
PERSONAL INFORMATION WE COLLECT
Welcome to Smackerz! When you visit our site, we’re on the ball, collecting data that helps us make your experience better. This includes info about your device, like your web browser, IP address, time zone, and yes, even those cookies that tag along on your device. As you navigate through our site, we keep tabs on what catches your eye, the pathways that brought you to us, and how you interact with our offerings. We bundle this info up and call it “Device Information.”
Our tech toolkit for gathering this data includes:
- Cookies: These little digital breadcrumbs sit on your device, helping us understand your preferences and enhancing your site experience.
- Log files: These records track the happenings on our site, noting your IP address, browser type, your ISP, where you came and went on our site, and time stamps of your visits.
- Web beacons, tags, and pixels: These are our digital spies, collecting intel on how you browse through our site.
When you feel like making a purchase or just flirting with the idea, we collect more direct info from you, like your name, addresses (billing and shipping), payment info (no worries, it’s secure), along with your email and phone number. This part of the data collection is what we call “Order Information.”
In this Privacy Policy, “Personal Information” is the umbrella term for both your Device Information and Order Information.
HOW DO WE USE YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION?
Your Order Information is our blueprint for fulfilling your orders, from processing payments to getting your goodies shipped, and ensuring you’re in the loop with confirmations and invoices. We also use your Order Information to: Chat with you; Check our orders for any funny business (like fraud); and Tailor our info and ads to your liking, based on what you tell us you’re into.
Your Device Information helps us keep an eye out for risk and fraud (especially that IP address of yours), and more broadly, to polish and perfect our Site. This means analyzing how all our friends (a.k.a customers) use our site and gauging the success of our marketing jazz.
SHARING YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION
Sharing is caring, or so we’ve heard. We share your Personal Information with third parties that help us use it, as spelled out above. For the nitty-gritty on how Google Analytics uses your information (because, yes, we use that too), head to Google’s Privacy Policy. You can also say “no thanks” to Google Analytics here: Google Analytics Opt-out.
We’re in cahoots with HubSpot too, for a bit of marketing magic and keeping your info tidy – their privacy policy is over at HubSpot’s Privacy Policy.
And just so you know, we might also share your info to play nice with the law, respond to legal stuff like subpoenas, or protect our own backyard.
ADVERTISING
Yes, we advertise. And we use your info to make sure the ads you see might actually tickle your fancy. Want to know more about how this works? Dive into the Network Advertising Initiative’s explainer at How Online Advertising Works. Not a fan of targeted ads? You can opt-out with these handy links:
- Google: Google Ad Settings
- Digital Advertising Alliance: DAA Opt-Out
DATA RETENTION
Order through our site, and we’ll hold onto your Order Information in our records unless you tell us to bid it adieu.
FUTURE CHANGES
Times change, and so might this policy. We’ll update it as needed, so keep an eye out for the latest on how we handle your data.
INTENDED USE
Smackerz is for the grown-ups – that means 21 and over. Minors, this site isn’t for you.
