WHAT DOES THIS PRIVACY POLICY COVER?

This Privacy Policy Covers how we treat your personally identifiable information ("Personal Information") that we collect when you are accessing or using any of our Services. 

WHAT PERSONAL INFORMATION DO WE NEED FROM YOU?

Personal data, or personal information, means any information about an individual from which that person can be identified. The information we collect from our users enables us to personalize and improve our services and at the same time allow users to have full access to our website.

Depending on how you choose to interact with our website, we may collect, store, make use of and transfer different kinds of personal data about you.

We may collect personally identifiable information about you which may include but not limited to your provided full name/user name, billing address, email address, shipping address, purchase history, IP address, credit card information, browser information, and any other information you provide in connection with your user account you create with us.

You can decide not to provide us with certain information, but with such, you may not be able to take full advantage of many of our classified features.

The Personal Information you provide to us is used for such purposes as but not limited to allowing us to improving the content of our Service, and communicating with you about specials and new features.

In the event that you purchase an item, you may need to provide financial account information such as your credit card number to our third party financial processor service provider and such information may be stored and used for both billing and payment services by such third party service providers.

We do not in any way receive your credit card information directly, but we may receive information about the transaction, such as the date and time it occurred.

WHY DO WE NEED YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION?

We need this personal information in a bid to provide you with a customized and top notch customer experience and, as needed, to administer our business. It permits us to provide you with an easy access to use our service and products and bring to you customized contents and items that we believe may be of great interest to you.

HOW WE USE/DISCLOSE YOUR PERSONAL DATA THAT WE RECEIVE

Personal Information about our customers is an integral part of our business. We neither rent nor sell your Personal Information to anyone. We will ensure to only use your personal data when the law allows us to.

Please note that we may disclose your personal information without your knowledge or consent, where this is required or permitted by law.

HOW DO YOU GET MY CONSENT?

When you provide us with personal information to complete a transaction, verify your credit card, place an order, arrange for a delivery or return a purchase, we imply that you consent to our collecting it and using it for that specific reason only.

If we ask for your personal information for a secondary reason, like marketing, we will either ask you directly for your expressed consent, or provide you with an opportunity to say no.

HOW DO I WITHDRAW MY CONSENT?

If after you opt-in, you change your mind, you may withdraw your consent for us to contact you, for the continued collection, use or disclosure of your information, at any time, by contacting us at hello@aphroditepublishinghouse.com

AGE OF CONSENT

By using this site, you represent and warrant that you are at least the age of majority in your state of residence, or that you are the age of majority in your state of residence and you have given us your consent to allow any of your minor dependents to use this site.

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 in 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.

OPTING OUT

You can ask us to stop (and to ask third parties to whom we have provided your personal data to stop) sending you e-mail marketing messages by contacting us at any time.
