Collection and Use of Personal Information About Customers
Information we gather from customers helps us personalise and continually improve your shopping experience at ProLaxShop.com. We use this information to handle orders, deliver products and services, process payments, communicate with you about orders, products, services and promotional offers, update our records and generally maintain your accounts with us, display content such as wish lists and customer reviews and recommend merchandise and services that might be of interest to you. We also use this information to help improve our store and platform, prevent or detect fraud or abuses of our website and enable third parties to carry out technical, logistical or other functions on our behalf.

Here are the types of information we gather.

* Information you give us: we receive and store any information you enter on our website or give us in any other way. You can choose not to provide certain information but then you might not be able to take advantage of many of our features.
* Automatic information: we receive and store certain types of information whenever you interact with us. For example, like many websites, we use "cookies" and we obtain certain types of information when your Web browser accesses ProLaxShop.com. A number of companies offer utilities designed to help you visit websites anonymously. Although we will not be able to provide you with a personalised experience at ProLaxShop.com if we cannot recognise you, we want you to be aware that these tools exist.
* E-mail communications: to help us make e-mails more useful and interesting, we often receive a confirmation when you open e-mail from ProLaxShop.com if your computer supports such capabilities. We also compare our customer list to lists received from other companies in an effort to avoid sending unnecessary messages to our customers. If you do not want to receive e-mail or other mail from us, please advise us by e-Mail.

* Information from other sources: we might receive information about you from other sources and add it to our account information. What About Cookies?

* Cookies are alphanumeric identifiers that we transfer to your computer hard drive through your Web browser to enable our systems to recognise your browser, personalise greetings and storage of items in your Shopping Basket between visits.
* The Help menu on the menu bar of most browsers will tell you how to prevent your browser from accepting new cookies, how to have the browser notify you when you receive a new cookie and how to disable cookies altogether. However, cookies allow you to take full advantage of some of ProLaxShop.com's most innovative and useful features and we recommend that you leave them turned on.
* If you do leave cookies turned on, be sure to sign off when you finish using a shared computer. Click here for more information on how to sign off.

Does ProLaxShop.com share the information it receives? Information about our customers is an important part of our business and we are not in the business of selling it to others. ProLaxShop.com shares customer information only as described below and with Sport Drucks Eschweiler GmbH & Co KG Auerbachstr.12 52249 Eschweiler GERMANY and the subsidiaries which Sport Drucks Eschweiler GmbH & Co KG, controls and that are either subject to this Privacy Notice or follow practices at least as protective as those described in this Privacy Notice. * Agents: we may employ other companies and individuals to perform functions on our behalf. Examples include fulfilling orders, delivering packages, sending postal mail and e-mail, removing repetitive information from customer lists, analysing data, providing marketing assistance, processing credit card payments and providing customer service. May these agents have access to personal information needed to perform their functions, but may not use it for other purposes. Further, they must process the personal information in accordance with this Privacy Notice and as permitted by the EU Data Protection Act. * Promotional offers: sometimes we send offers to selected groups of ProLaxShop.com customers on behalf of other businesses. When we do this, we do not give that business your name and address. If you do not want to receive such offers, please adjust your Customer Communication Preferences. * Business transfers: as we continue to develop our business, we might sell or buy stores, subsidiaries or business units. In such transactions, customer information generally is one of the transferred business assets but remains subject to the promises made in any pre-existing Privacy Notice (unless, of course, the customer consents otherwise). Also, in the unlikely event that Sport Drucks GmbH, or substantially all of its assets are acquired, customer information will of course be one of the transferred assets. * Protection of ProLaxShop.com: We release account and other personal information when we believe release is appropriate to comply with law, to enforce or apply our Conditions of Use and other agreements or to protect the rights, property or safety of ProLaxShop.com. This includes exchanging information with other companies and organizations for fraud protection and credit risk reduction. Obviously, however, this does not include selling, renting, sharing or otherwise disclosing personally identifiable information from customers for commercial purposes in a way that is contrary to the commitments made in this Privacy Notice. * With your consent: other than as set out above, you will receive notice when information about you might go to third parties and you will have an opportunity to choose not to share the information. Whenever we transfer personal information to countries outside of the European Economic Area in the course of sharing information as set out above, we will ensure that the information is transferred in accordance with this Privacy Notice and as permitted by the EU Data Protection Act. How Secure Is Information About Me? * We work to protect the security of your information during transmission by using Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) software, which encrypts information you input. * We maintain physical, electronic and procedural safeguards in connection with the collection, storage and disclosure of personally identifiable customer information. Our security procedures mean that we may occasionally request proof of identity before we disclose personal information to you. * It is important for you to protect against unauthorized access to your password and to your computer. Be sure to sign off when you finish using a shared computer.

What Information Can I Access?

ProLaxShop.com gives you access to a broad range of information about your account and your interactions with ProLaxShop.com. This list will change as our website evolves.

What Choices Do I Have?

* You can add or update certain information. When you update information, we usually keep a copy of the previous version for our records.
* If you do not want to receive e-mail or other mail from us, please adjust your Customer Communication Preferences. (If you do not want to receive Conditions of Use and other legal notices from us, such as this Privacy Notice, those notices will still govern your use of ProLaxShop.com and orders placed with ProLaxShop.com, and it is your responsibility to review them for changes.)
* The Help menu on the menu bar of most browsers will tell you how to prevent your browser from accepting new cookies, how to have the browser notify you when you receive a new cookie and how to disable cookies altogether.
