Personal Information/Information We May Collect | 1

– Personally Identifiable Information

As a general matter, you can browse the Website without revealing Personal Information to us.  However, there are a number of circumstances in which you may supply us with your personally identifiable information. Personal Information means any information that may be used to identify an individual, including, but not limited to, a first and last name, a home or other physical address, a phone number, an email address, credit card information, payment information, and billing address. In order to access certain information, services, or features that may be contained on the Website, we may require you to provide Personal Information. For example, we will collect certain Personal Information if you choose to subscribe to a mailing list, register for an account, participate in special offers, sweepstakes or other promotions, sign up for our chat rooms, message boards or blogs, or send questions or comments to us via e-mail. If you would like to purchase any products or merchandise offered for sale on the Website using a credit card, we also will collect your credit card information and a shipping address.

 

– Collection of Personally Identifiable Information From or Through Social Media Portals

When you interact with any Luna Volta property page or account on a social media platform, such as Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, Google+, or LinkedIn, we may collect the personally identifiable information that you make available to us on that page or account including your account ID or “handle.” However, we will comply with the privacy policies of the corresponding social media platform and we will only collect and store such personally identifiable information that we are permitted to collect by these social media platforms.  If you choose to link to or access the Website with or through a social networking service, Luna Volta and that service may share certain information about you and your activities. With your consent, we also may share information about your activities, including what you view on the Website, with that social network’s users.

 

– Non-Personally Identifiable Information

We also may collect certain demographic information (such as gender or age) and information about your interests and preferences ("preferences information"). In many cases, such demographic and preferences information is optional. In other cases, such as online surveys, we collect this information on an anonymous basis. However, if we link any demographic or preferences information to any Personal Information, then such demographic and preferences information will be treated as Personal Information under this Privacy Policy. For some features of the Website, you may be able to submit information about other people. For example, if you wish to purchase a product for another person on the Website and want it shipped directly to that person, you may submit the recipient's name, address and certain other contact information. We will use and store any such information that we collect from you about another person only to the extent necessary to carry out your request, and we will not use such information for any other purpose. In addition, when you interact with the Website, we may collect certain information that does not identify you individually and our servers may automatically keep an activity log of your use of our Website (“non-personally identifiable information” or “non-PII”). Generally, we collect and store the following categories of non-personally identifiable information:

  • Demographic data such as age, gender, and five digit zip code as part of collecting personally identifiable information.

  • Device information about your computer, mobile device, or other device that you use to access the Website. This information may include IP address, geolocation information, unique device identifiers, browser type, browser language, and other transactional information.

  • Usage information about your use of the Website. This information includes, among other things, a history of the pages you view.  We use this information to provide you a more customized experience on the Sites.

  • Additional “traffic data” such as time of access, date of access, software crash reports, session identification number, access times, and referring website addresses.

  • Aggregate data regarding the use of the Website.

 

– Collection of Personally Identifiable Information and Non-Personally Identifiable Information

Through Surveys 

From time to time we may provide you with the opportunity to participate in surveys on our Services, which might be conducted by a third party.  If you participate, we will request certain personally identifiable information from you. Participation in these surveys is completely voluntary and you therefore have a choice whether or not to disclose this personally identifiable information. The requested personally identifiable information typically includes contact information. If there is a third party involved please make sure to review that party’s privacy policy.

 

How We May Use Your Information | 2

– General Uses 

We use the information we learn from you to help us personalize and continually improve your experience on the Website. If you provide us with Personal Information, we may retain and use that information for several purposes. For example, we may use your Personal Information in order to process and fulfill any transactions or services that you request, such as sending e-mail inspirations you sign-up for on the Website, products or merchandise that you purchase on the Website (including any customary follow-up or confirmation communications regarding such transactions), establishing an account for you, responding to your questions, or sending e-mails to our mailing list subscribers. We may also use Personal Information to ensure compliance with our policies and applicable law. In addition, we may send you periodic communications by e-mail or regular mail, such as news updates, special offers or information on our products or services, if you have chosen to receive such communications. If you later wish to opt-out of receiving such promotional e-mails from us at any time, simply follow the instructions for doing so in the e-mails that you receive from us. We reserve the right to send you certain communications relating to the Website, such as service announcements, e-mails related to purchases you have made, or similar administrative or transactional messages, without offering you the opportunity to opt-out of receiving them. In general, we may use the information to:

  • Improve our products, our site, and how we operate our business.

  • Provide you with services, content, products, or other information you request.

  • Communicate with you about your account or transactions with us and send you information about features and enhancements on or to our Website.

  • Communicate with you about changes to our policies.

  • Personalize content and experiences on our Website, including providing you recommendations based on your preferences.

  • Administer surveys.

– Combination of Your Information

We may use the information from one portion of the Website on other portions of Website or in our network of Websites, all of which are owned and operated by Luna Volta, and we may combine information gathered from multiple portions of the Website into a single user record.  We may also use and/or combine information that we collect off-line or we collect or receive from third party sources to enhance, expand, and check the accuracy of your customer records. If we combine information collected from the Website with information subject to additional restrictions on use or disclosure, such as information protected under the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act, as amended, including implementing regulations (collectively, “HIPAA”) we will apply the more restrictive rules to the combined information.

 

With Whom We May Share Your Information | 3

We may sometimes use other businesses to perform certain services for us, such as maintaining the Website and our mailing lists, processing orders and delivering products, sending postal mail, and providing marketing assistance and data analysis. We may provide Personal Information to those businesses when that information is necessary for them to complete a requested transaction or otherwise perform their duties. Luna Volta will take reasonable steps to ensure that these third-party service providers are obligated to protect Personal Information on Luna Volta's behalf. You may also have given us permission to send you information regarding products which we may believe may be of interest to you. As Luna Volta develops, we may buy other businesses or their assets or sell our business assets. Customer information is generally one of the business assets involved in such transactions. Thus, in the event that Luna Volta or all of its assets are acquired, customer information would be one of the transferred assets. We reserve the right to disclose visitor information in special cases when we have reason to believe that disclosing this information is necessary to identify, contact, or bring legal action against someone who may be causing injury to or interference with (either intentionally or unintentionally) our rights or property, other visitors, or anyone else that could be harmed by such activities. We also reserve the right to disclose visitor information when we believe in good faith that the law requires it.

 

– Third-Party Agents 

We have third party agents, subsidiaries, affiliates and partners that perform functions on our behalf, such as hosting, content syndication, content management tools, social media integration, marketing, analytics, billing, storage, shipping, fulfilment, distribution, customer service, and fraud protection.  These entities may have access to the personally identifiable information needed to perform their functions. If such access is required, the third parties will be contractually obligated to maintain the confidentiality and security of that personally identifiable information.

 

– Business Partners and Third Parties 

We may share your personally identifiable information with our business partners or co-marketers from time to time.  We may also share your personally identifiable information with third parties that provide products and services that we think you may be interested in.  Although our treatment of your personally identifiable information is governed by this Privacy Policy, the business partner or third party’s treatment of your personally identifiable information will be governed by the business partner or third party’s privacy policy.  You may withdraw your consent to our sharing of your personally identifiable information with business partners and third parties at any time by following the opt-out process described below.

Cookies and Other Tracking Technologies | 5

Some of our web pages utilize "cookies" and other tracking technologies. A cookie is a small text file that a website transfers to an individual's hard drive for record-keeping purposes.

However, please be aware that some features of the Website may not function properly or may be slower if you refuse cookies.

Web servers, the big computers that "serve up" webpages, automatically identify your computer by its IP address. It is not our practice to link the information we record using tracking technologies to any Personal Information you submit while on the Website. However, we reserve the right to use IP addresses and other tracking technologies to identify a visitor only when we feel it is necessary to enforce compliance with the Website's policies, to protect the Website, our customers, or others, or when we believe in good faith that the law requires it.
