WHAT PERSONAL INFORMATION DO WE COLLECT?

We collect information that identifies, relates to, describes, is reasonably capable of being associated with, or could reasonably be linked, directly or indirectly, with a particular consumer or household (“Personal Information”). In addition, we may collect data that is not identifiable to you or otherwise associated with you, such as aggregated data, and is not Personal Information. To the extent this data is stored or associated with Personal Information, it will be treated as Personal Information; otherwise, the data is not subject to this notice.

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 browse our store, we also automatically receive your computer’s internet protocol (IP) address in order to provide us with information that helps us learn about your browser and operating system.

HOW DO WE USE YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION? 

We collect and process your Personal Information for the following business and commercial purposes: 

• Providing customer service, processing or fulfilling orders and transactions, verifying customer information, and processing payments.
• Marketing our products and services to you, including sending you messages about the products and services we offer, which may include special offers for products and services. 
• Communicating with you by email about products, services, order status, and information tailored to your requests or inquiries.  
• Auditing related to a current interaction with the consumer and concurrent transactions, including, but not limited to, counting ad impressions to unique visitors, verifying positioning and quality of ad impressions, and auditing compliance with this specification and other standards.
• Detecting security incidents, protecting against malicious, deceptive, fraudulent, or illegal activity, and prosecuting those responsible for that activity.
• Debugging to identify and repair errors that impair existing intended functionality.
• Complying with applicable laws, regulations, rules and requests of relevant law enforcement and/or other governmental agencies, or for other purposes, as permitted or required by law.
• As necessary or appropriate to protect the rights, property, and safety of our users, us, and other third parties.

We will not use the Personal Information we collected for materially different, unrelated, or incompatible purposes without providing you with notice and obtaining your consent.

DISCLOSURE OF YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION

We disclose your Personal Information to our service providers, as well as with government agencies or regulations when permitted or required to do so by law; in response to a request from a law enforcement agency or authority or any regulatory authority; to protect the integrity of the Services or our interests, rights, property, or safety, and/or that of our users and others; and/or if you violate our Terms of Service 

We may also disclose your Personal Information and other information with third parties in connection with a merger, divestiture, restructuring, reorganization, dissolution, or other sale or transfer of some or all of the assets of our company, whether as a going concern or as part of bankruptcy, liquidation, or similar proceeding, in which information held by us about the Services is among the assets transferred.

SHOPIFY

Our store is hosted on Shopify Inc. They provide us with the online e-commerce platform that allows us to sell our products and services to you.

Your data is stored through Shopify’s data storage, databases and the general Shopify application. They store your data on a secure server behind a firewall.

Payment:
If you choose a direct payment gateway to complete your purchase, then Shopify 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. After that is complete, 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.

For more information, please see Shopify’s Terms of Service (https://www.shopify.com/legal/terms) or Privacy Statement (https://www.shopify.com/legal/privacy).

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.

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 (https://huberperez.site/pages/terms-and-conditions)

VIRGINIA PRIVACY RIGHTS NOTICE

The Virginia Consumer Data Protection Act (“VCDPA”) provides Virginia consumers with specific rights regarding their Personal Information. This section describes your rights under the VCDPA and explains how you may exercise these rights. We will also apply similar VCDPA rights to residents of other U.S. states with similar laws to which you and we are both subject.

The categories of Personal Information we process, our purposes for processing your Personal Information, the categories of Personal Information that we share with third parties and the categories of third parties with whom we share it are detailed above in our Privacy Policy. 

Certain rights that you may have concerning your Personal Information are set forth in our Privacy Policy. The VCDPA provides you with the following additional rights:

• Right to know. You have the right to know whether we process your Personal Information and to access such Personal Information. 
• Right to data portability. You have the right to obtain a copy of your Personal Information that you previously provided to us in a portable and, to the extent technically feasible, readily usable format that allows you to transmit the data to another business without hindrance, where the processing is carried out by automated means. You may request such Personal Information up to twice annually, subject to certain exceptions. 
• Right to delete. You have the right to delete Personal Information that you have provided by or that we have obtained about you. Please note that we may deny such request if the requested deletion falls under an exception to this right set forth in the VCDPA. Additionally, if you request deletion of your Personal Information and we have obtained such information from a third-party source, we may retain such data by keeping a record of the deletion request and the minimum data necessary to ensure that your Personal Information remains deleted from our records and that such retained data is not used for any other purpose, or we may opt you out of the processing of such Personal Information for any purpose except for those allowed under the VCDPA.
• Right to opt out of selling or sharing. You have the right to opt out of the processing of the Personal Information for purposes of (i) targeted advertising, (ii) the sale of Personal Information, or (iii) profiling in furtherance of decisions that produce legal or similarly significant effects concerning you. As of the latest date of the Privacy Policy, we do not process Personal Information for the purposes of targeted advertising, sell your Personal Information in exchange for monetary consideration, or engage in profiling decision based on your Personal Information that produce legal or similarly significant effects concerning you.
• Right to correct. You have the right to correct inaccuracies in the Personal Information we collect from you, taking into account the nature of the Personal Information and the purposes for which we process it. 
• Right to nondiscrimination. You have the right not to receive discriminatory treatment by us for the exercise of your Virginia privacy rights. Unless permitted by the VCDPA, we will not:

To exercise the rights described above, please submit a request to us by emailing us at [email protected] or calling us at 917 628 7632.

Verification of Your Identity 

After submitting a request, we will take steps to verify your identity in order for us to properly respond and/or confirm that it is not a fraudulent request. In order to verify your identity, we will request, at a minimum, that you provide your name, email address, phone number, address, and relationship to us, so that we can seek to match this information with the information existing in our systems. When providing us this information, you represent and affirm that all information provided is true and accurate. If we are unable to verify using reasonably commercial efforts that the consumer submitting the request is the same individual about whom we have collected Personal Information, then we are not required to comply with the request; we may contact you for more information reasonably necessary to authenticate the request, but ultimately we may not be able to meet your request.

Only you may make a verifiable request related to your Personal Information. If you are making a request as the parent or legal guardian of a known child regarding the processing of that child’s Personal Information, we may ask you to submit reliable proof of your identity.

Our Response Time to Your Request

We will make every effort to respond to your request within forty-five (45) days from when you contacted us. If you have a complex request, the VCDPA allows us up to ninety (90) days to respond. We will still contact you within forty-five (45) days from when you contacted us to let you know we need more time to respond and the reason for the extension.

Your Right to Appeal

If we decline to take action regarding a request that you have submitted, we will inform you of our reason for declining to take action and provide instructions for how to appeal the decision. In the event that we do not respond to a request that you make pursuant to one of the privacy rights set forth in this section, you have the right to appeal our refusal to take action within a reasonable period of time after you receive our decision. Within 60 days of our receipt of an appeal, we will inform you in writing of any action taken or not taken in response to the appeal, including a written explanation of the reasons for the decisions. If the appeal is denied, we will also provide you with an online mechanism, if available, or other method through which you may contact the Attorney General to submit a complaint.

European Economic Area / United Kingdom / Switzerland Privacy Rights

IF YOU ARE SITUATED IN THE EUROPEAN ECONOMIC AREA, SWITZERLAND, OR THE UNITED KINGDOM, THIS SECTION APPLIES TO OUR COLLECTION, USE, AND DISCLOSURE OF YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION AND ADDITIONAL RIGHTS YOU HAVE UNDER APPLICABLE LAW.

Legal Basis

We will only use your Personal Information, as that term is defined under the General Data Protection Regulation (“GDPR”), when the law allows us to. Most commonly, we will use your Personal Information in the following circumstances:

• Where we need to perform the contract we are about to enter into or have entered into with you.
• Where it is necessary for our legitimate interests (or those of a third party) and your interests and fundamental rights do not override those interests.
• Where you have consented to a certain use of your Personal Information.
• Where we need to comply with a legal or regulatory obligation.

To the extent permitted under applicable laws, we will also process, transfer, disclose, and preserve Personal Information when we have a good faith belief that doing so is necessary. 

Data Controller

Solgaard Design, Inc. is the data controller of all Personal Information collected through our Services.

If you are situated in the EEA, Switzerland, or the UK and have any complaints regarding our privacy practices, you have the right to make a complaint at any time to your local supervisory authority. We would, however, appreciate the chance to deal with your concerns before you approach your supervisory authority, so please contact us in the first instance. If you have a complaint, please contact our privacy manager by emailing [email protected] .

Provision of Personal Information and failure to provide Personal Information

Where we need to collect Personal Information by law or under the terms of a contract we have with you, and you fail to provide that data when requested, we may not be able to perform the contract we have or are trying to enter into with you (for example, to provide you with our services). In this case, we may not be able to provide certain services to you.

Collection of Personal Information from third-party sources

We may obtain Personal Information and other information about you from public sources and through our third-party partners who help us provide our products and services to you. 

Withdrawing your consent

If we are relying on your consent to process your Personal Information, you have the right to withdraw your consent at any time by contacting us at [email protected].

Data Transfer

We may transfer Personal Information from the EEA, Switzerland, and the UK to the USA and other countries, some of which have not been determined by the European Commission or the UK to have an adequate level of data protection. Where we use certain vendors, we may use specific contracts approved by the European Commission or the UK Secretary of State which give Personal Information the same protection it has in Europe. For more information about how we transfer your data, please contact us at [email protected] .

Use of your Personal Information for marketing purposes

We strive to provide you with choices regarding certain Personal Information uses, particularly around marketing and advertising:

• Promotional offers from us: We may use your Personal Information to form a view on what we think you may want or need, or what may be of interest to you. This is how we decide which products, services and offers may be relevant for you (we call this marketing). You will receive marketing communications from us if you have requested information from us or used our services and, in each case, you have consented to our use of your Personal Information for marketing purposes.

Data Subject Rights

If you are situated in the European Union, Switzerland, or the UK, under the GDPR, as a data subject, you have the right to: 

• Request access to your Personal Information (commonly known as a "data subject access request"). This enables you to receive a copy of the Personal Information we hold about you and to check that we are lawfully processing it.
• Request correction of the Personal Information that we hold about you. This enables you to have any incomplete or inaccurate data we hold about you corrected, though we may need to verify the accuracy of the new data you provide to us.
• Request erasure of your Personal Information. This enables you to ask us to delete or remove Personal Information where there is no good reason for us continuing to process it. You also have the right to ask us to delete or remove your Personal Information where you have successfully exercised your right to object to processing (see below), where we may have processed your information unlawfully, or where we are required to erase your Personal Information to comply with local law. Note, however, that we may not always be able to comply with your request of erasure for specific legal reasons which will be notified to you, if applicable, at the time of your request.
• Object to processing of your Personal Information where we are relying on a legitimate interest (or those of a third party) and there is something about your particular situation which makes you want to object to processing on this ground as you feel it impacts on your fundamental rights and freedoms. You also have the right to object where we are processing your Personal Information for direct marketing purposes. In some cases, we may demonstrate that we have compelling legitimate grounds to process your information which override your rights and freedoms.
• Request restriction of processing of your Personal Information. This enables you to ask us to suspend the processing of your Personal Information in the following scenarios: (a) if you want us to establish the data's accuracy; (b) where our use of the data is unlawful but you do not want us to erase it; (c) where you need us to hold the data even if we no longer require it as you need it to establish, exercise, or defend legal claims; or (d) you have objected to our use of your data but we need to verify whether we have overriding legitimate grounds to use it.
• Request the transfer of your Personal Information to you or to a third party. We will provide to you, or a third party you have chosen, your Personal Information in a structured, commonly used, machine-readable format. Note that this right only applies to automated information which you initially provided consent for us to use or where we used the information to perform a contract with you.
• Withdraw consent at any time where we are relying on consent to process your Personal Information. However, this will not affect the lawfulness of any processing carried out before you withdraw your consent.
