SECTION 1 - HOW WE COLLECT INFORMATION?

When you visit SARANGHAE.es, we automatically collect certain information about your device, including data about your web browser, your IP address, your time zone, and some cookies installed on your device. Additionally, as you browse SARANGHAE.es, we collect information about the pages or products you view, the web pages or search terms that referred you to our site, and how you interact with our website.

1.1 Technical Information
Device Information

Device information includes device type, operating system, settings, unique device identifiers, and crash data that help us understand when something isn't working. The amount of information we collect depends on the type of device and its settings. For example, the available information varies if you use a Mac, a PC, an iPhone, or an Android phone. For more details on the information your device provides to us, please review the privacy policies of your device manufacturer or software provider.

Cookies

"Cookies" are files stored on your device or computer, usually containing an anonymous unique identifier. We use cookies to, for example, save your language preferences or settings so you don't have to set them on every visit to the page.

Below is a list of cookies we use. We've provided them so you can decide if you want to opt out of using them.

  • _session_id: Unique token, session. Allows Shopify to store information about your session (referrer, landing page, etc.).

  • Cart: Unique token, stores information about the contents of your cart for 2 weeks.

Social Plugins

When you visit pages of our website that contain a Facebook, Google+, Twitter, or Pinterest plugin (marked with the provider's logo), your browser establishes a direct connection with the servers of these providers. The content of the plugin is transferred directly to your browser from its origin page and integrated into our website. This allows the provider to know that you have visited our site. If you are logged into their platform, they can associate your visit with your profile.

If you do not want the provider to collect data about you, you should log out before visiting our website. Even if you are logged out, providers may collect data anonymously and place cookies.

Please refer to the privacy policies of these providers:


Web Beacons, Tags and Pixels

Web Beacons (tracking pixels) are electronic files used to collect information about how you browse our site. These small graphics, also known as "internet tags" or "clear GIFs", are included on web pages and in emails. They are used in conjunction with cookies for various purposes, such as counting visits to our site, analyzing how users navigate it, counting content views, and displaying online advertising to you, both within and outside of our service.

Tracking URLs

In some of our email communications, we use tracking URLs that are linked to content on our pages. If you click on one of these URLs, you will pass through a separate web server before arriving at the destination page on our site. We track this click data to understand interest in certain topics and measure the effectiveness of our customer communication. If you do not wish to be tracked in this way, please avoid clicking on text or graphic links in the emails you receive.


1.2 Personal Information

If you register for an account, subscribe to our newsletter, or make a purchase on the site, we collect certain personal data, such as your name, billing address, shipping address, payment information, email address, and phone number. We refer to this data as "order information". If you purchase something for someone else, we also collect their shipping and contact information.

Tracking

Please note that we do not alter our data collection practices if we receive a "Do Not Track" signal from your browser.

  • Identify you when using the page and process your transactions.
  • Communicate with you, review orders for risk or fraud.

Certain third-party service providers, such as payment gateways and other transaction processors, have their own privacy policies regarding the information we are required to provide to them for your purchase-related transactions.

We recommend reading the privacy policies of these providers so you can understand how your personal data will be handled by them.

Specifically, please note that certain providers are located in other jurisdictions or have facilities in a jurisdiction different from yours or ours. If you decide to proceed with a transaction that involves the services of a third party, your information may become subject to the laws of the jurisdiction in which that service provider or its facilities are located.

For example, if you are in Spain and your transaction is processed by a payment gateway located in the United States, your personal information could be disclosed according to the legislation of the U.S., including the Patriot Act.
