PRIVACY POLICY

​

​

​

WHAT PERSONAL INFORMATION DO WE COLLECT?

​

When you purchase something from our store, as part of the buying and selling process, we collect the personal information you give us such as your name, address and email address. When you make a transaction from this website we also automatically receive your computer’s internet protocol (IP) address in order to provide us with information about your browser and operating system.

​

 

HOW DO YOU GET MY CONSENT?

​

When you provide us with personal information to complete a transaction, verify your credit card, place an order and arrange for a delivery of a purchase, we imply that you consent to our collecting such information 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 anytime, by contacting us at info@circletales.com.

​

 

DISCLOSURE

​

We may be asked to disclose personal data in response to lawful requests by public authorities, including to meet national security or law enforcement requirements, and will do so where permitted by local data protection laws.

​

 

WIX E-COMMERCE

​

Our store is hosted on Wix.com Ltd. They provide us with the online e-commerce platform that allows us to sell our products to you. Your data is stored through Wix’s data storage, databases and the general Wix application. They store your data on a secure server behind a firewall. If you choose a direct payment gateway to complete your purchase then Wix stores your credit card data. It is encrypted through the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI-DSS). Your purchase transaction data is stored only as long as is necessary to complete your purchase transaction. Upon completion your purchase transaction information is deleted.

 

All direct payment gateways 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.

​

SECURITY

​

Wix has implemented security measures designed to protect the Personal Information you share with us, including physical, electronic and procedural measures. Among other things, we offer HTTPS secure access to most areas on our Services; the transmission of sensitive payment information (such as a credit card number) through our designated purchase forms is protected by an industry standard SSL/TLS encrypted connection; and we regularly maintain a PCI DSS (Payment Card Industry Data Security Standards) certification. We also regularly monitor our systems for possible vulnerabilities and attacks, and regularly seek new ways and Third Party Services for further enhancing the security of our Services and protection of our Visitors’ and Users’ privacy.
 

However – regardless of the measures and efforts taken by Wix, we cannot and do not guarantee the absolute protection and security of your Personal Information, your Users-of-Users’ Information or any other User Content you upload, publish or otherwise share with Wix or anyone else. We therefore encourage you to avoid providing us with any sensitive information which you believe its disclosure could cause you substantial or irreparable harm, and set strong passwords for your User Account when this feature becomes available.

​

 

THIRD-PARTY SERVICES

​

Wix has partnered with a number of selected service providers, whose services and solutions complement, facilitate and enhance our own. These include hosting and server co-location services, communications and content delivery networks (CDNs), data and cyber security services, billing and payment processing services, domain name registrars, fraud detection and prevention services, web analytics, e-mail distribution and monitoring services, session recording and remote access services, performance measurement and data optimisation services, content providers, and our legal and financial advisors (collectively “Third Party Services”).

​

Such Third Party Services may receive or otherwise have access to our Visitors’ and Users’ Personal Information and/or Users-of-Users’ Personal Information, in its entirety or in part – depending on each of their particular roles and purposes in facilitating and enhancing our user experience, and may only use it for such purposes. This Privacy Policy does not apply to such linked third-party websites and services.

​

Wix is accountable for personal data that it receives under the Privacy Shield and subsequently transfers to a third party as described in the Privacy Shield Principles. In particular, Wix remains responsible and liable under the Privacy Shield Principles if third-party agents that it engages to process the personal data on its behalf do so in a manner inconsistent with the Principles.
