Our Privacy Commitment:

 

 At Virid Es Scents we know how important it is to protect your personal information, whether you are shopping with us online or in person we want to make every customer’s experience safe and secure. In keeping with that goal, we have developed this Privacy Policy to explain our practices for the collection, use, and disclosure of your personal information.

This Policy applies to our Web Sites, in-store pickups and all other channels in which Virid Es Scents (VES) collects and uses your personal information. 

 

What type of information do we collect?

 

We receive, collect and store any information you enter on our website or provide to us in any other way. In addition, we collect the Internet Protocol (IP) address used to connect your computer to the Internet, e-mail address, computer and connection information and purchase history. We may use software tools to measure and collect session information, including page response times, length of visits to certain pages, page interaction information and methods used to browse away from the page. We also collect personally identifiable information (including name, email, communications); payment details (including credit card information), comments, feedback, product reviews, recommendations and personal profile.

All references to "Web Sites" in this Privacy Policy refer to www.viridesscents.com or VES

You may choose not to provide us with your personal information. However, if you make this choice, we may not be able to provide you with the product, service, or information that you requested. For example, we can only make a sales transaction under a customer account for which your name, email and address are needed at the least.

​

How do we collect information?

 

When you conduct a transaction on our website, as part of the process, we collect personal information you give us such as your name, address and email address. Your personal information will be used for the specific reasons stated below only.

 

How is Your Personal Information Used?

 

VES may use your personal information for several different business purposes, for example, to:

• Fulfill your specific requests for products, services or information.

• Provide customer support to assist you with your questions or complaints.

• Conduct surveys in order to improve our services.

• Measure and improve the effectiveness of our Web Sites or our marketing endeavors.

• Detect and protect against fraud and error.

• Track and analyze your purchases and preferences to better understand your product and service needs and eligibility.

• Tailor our online content or in-store offerings based on your preferences.

• If you ask us, to offer and promote additional products and services we offer; and

• For other purposes as described in this Privacy Policy.

Your Consent:

VES will collect, use or disclose your personal information only with your knowledge and consent, except where required or permitted by law. When you choose to provide us with your personal information you consent to the use of your personal information as identified in this Privacy Policy and as may be further identified at the time of collection.

Express Consent:

Sometimes you will be asked to give your express consent, such as by checking a box to indicate your consent to receive marketing communications, or by providing your signature to indicate your acceptance of the use and disclosure terms presented on an application form.

Implied Consent:

Other times, we may obtain your consent implicitly when we can reasonably conclude that you've given consent by an action you have taken or an action you have decided not to take. Generally, this occurs where the purpose for use of your personal information would be reasonably apparent to you.

Withdrawing Your Consent:

You may notify us at any time that you wish to withdraw or change your consent to our use and disclosure or your information. We will accommodate your request subject to legal and contractual restrictions related to your transactions.

If you have "opted in" or subscribed to one of our newsletters or mailing lists, we will always provide you with the opportunity to "opt out" or unsubscribe. For example, each e-newsletter we send to you will include a link or other method to unsubscribe or decline further e-newsletters.

 

 

How do we store, use, share and disclose your personal information?

 

Our company is hosted on the Wix.com platform. Wix.com provides us with an online platform that allows us to sell our products and services to you. Your data may be stored through Wix.com’s data storage, databases and the general Wix.com applications. They store your data on secure servers behind a firewall.  

 

All direct payment gateways offered by Wix.com and used by our company adhere to the standards set by PCI-DSS as managed by the PCI Security Standards Council, which is a joint effort of brands like Visa, MasterCard, American Express and Discover. PCI-DSS requirements help ensure the secure handling of credit card information by our store and its service providers.

 

VES does not sell or rent our customers' personal information to any other party. However, in the normal course of business we may share some of your personal information within our business family and with third parties acting on our behalf or as permitted or required by law.

 

Product Safety Recalls:

In the event we receive notice from a manufacturer of a product safety recall, we may provide your contact information, limited to name, address, and telephone number, to the manufacturer so that they may notify you of the recall and supply details of any replacement or repair programs. This transfer or your contact information will occur only for recalls that may impact your personal safety or impair the functionality of the product you purchased from us.

 Legal Disclosure:

VES may disclose your information as permitted or required by law. For example, we may be compelled to release information by a court of law or other person or entity with jurisdiction to compel production of such information. If we have reasonable grounds to believe information could be useful in the investigation of improper or unlawful activity, we may disclose information to law enforcement agencies or other appropriate investigative bodies.

 

 

How do we communicate with our site visitors?

 

VES may contact you to notify you regarding your account, to troubleshoot problems with your account, to resolve a dispute, to collect fees or monies owed, to poll your opinions through surveys or questionnaires, to send updates about our company, or as otherwise necessary to contact you to enforce our User Agreement, applicable national laws, and any agreement we may have with you.
