OUR PRINCIPLES

Clarity: We aim to provide you with a clear understanding of what information is gathered and how it's handled when you engage with our Store. The privacy policy outlines how "Amalgam Official” uses and protects any information provided by users on its website. We are committed to ensuring that your privacy is protected. Should we request for certain information to identify you on your next visit, you can be assured that it will only be used in accordance with this privacy statement.

Data Integrity: We will take sensible precautions to safeguard the information we collect about you through the Store using appropriate security measures and continual evaluations of our data storage infrastructure. 

COLLECTION OF PERSONALLY IDENTIFIABLE INFORMATION AND OTHER INFORMATION

We gather the subsequent data when you use the Store for the purposes described below:

Account Details- We collect Personal Data when you establish an account with us, make purchases, or sign up for recurring subscriptions. To create an account, you will be required to provide your full name, email address, and a password. You have the option to modify or delete any addresses added to your account.

Purchase Information- When you buy our products through the Store, we need to gather your shipping and billing address to fulfill your order. To finalize your purchase, you must provide either a credit card or choose to use one of our payment partners. For processes such as returns, fraud prevention, or other legitimate objectives (including complying with legal obligations), you may be requested to provide government-issued identification numbers, like a driver's license number. 

Customer Service- We also collect your information when you contact through our contact us webpage or call us directly. We use this information to record and respond to your inquiries and customer service matters or to inform you about our products and services. Customer service interactions may also be recorded for quality control and customer service purposes, and by accepting this Privacy Policy, you actively consent to the recording and collection of Personal Data during interactions with customer service.

Product Reviews on the Site- You can submit product reviews for publication on the Site. If you submit a review, we will collect your first name, last initial, email address, and any information you include in your review. While we do not display your email address, but your first name, last initial, and review will be publicly visible through the Store. We advise you to exercise caution when posting information that you are not comfortable sharing publicly. 

Registration for Contests- Occasionally, we may run contests and may ask participants to provide Personal Data, such as an email address. If you take part in a contest, your personal information may be used to contact you about the contest, meet legal reporting requirements, and for other marketing and business purposes.

Surveys. You may receive invitations to participate in surveys. If you choose to participate, you may be asked to provide certain information, including Personal Data. Your participation in our surveys is entirely voluntary, and any information you provide is done so willingly. We may use your survey responses for other marketing and business purposes. 

Interaction with Us on Third-Party Services (e.g., social media)- We maintain pages on various popular social media platforms and integrate social media features, such as the Facebook "Like" or "Share" buttons, widgets, and links to various social media platforms on our website. When you use these tools on our Site or post on our social media pages, we may receive Personal Data about you, including your name, email address, and other contact details associated with your social media account. The information we obtain depends on your privacy settings within the social network and is subject to this Privacy Policy. Any data you post on a third-party social media site is subject to the privacy policy of that site. We encourage you to carefully review and, if necessary, adjust your privacy settings on third-party websites before connecting them to our website. We do not control the information practices of third-party websites, so please review their policies and settings diligently to safeguard your data.

Browsing Information- We collect certain information about your use of the Site, including the areas or web pages you viewed on our Site, the Amalgam products you viewed or purchased, your IP address, details about your browser or device, and other information about your browsing behavior (collectively, “browsing information”). We use browsing information to improve the design and content of our Site, to suggest content and products that we think may be relevant to you, and to help us learn things like what pages are most attractive to our visitors, what promotions visitors like to see, and to measure the success of our advertising campaigns. 

USE of COOKIES, LINKS AND ANALYTICS INFORMATION 

The Amalgam Official website may use "cookies" to help you personalize your online experience. A cookie is a text file that is placed on your hard disk by a web page server. Cookies cannot be used to run programs or deliver viruses to your computer. Cookies are uniquely assigned to you and can only be read by a web server in the domain that issued the cookie to you.

One of the primary purposes of cookies is to provide a convenience feature to save you time. The purpose of a cookie is to tell the Web server that you have returned to a specific page. For example, if you personalize Amalgam Official pages, or register on our site or services, a cookie helps us to recall your specific information on subsequent visits. This simplifies the process of recording your personal information, such as billing addresses, shipping addresses, and so on. When you return to our website, the information you previously provided can be retrieved, so you can easily use the features that you customized. 

You have the ability to accept or decline cookies. Most Web browsers automatically accept cookies, but you can usually modify your browser setting to decline cookies if you prefer. If you choose to decline cookies, you may not be able to fully experience the interactive features of the websites.

Interest-Based Advertising: So that we can better target our advertising to individuals’ interests, we work with advertising partners who may use Technologies, including cookies to gather browsing Information about you when you use our Store. Section 6 ‘Choices Regarding Your Information’ below contains further information about these activities.

SECURITY OF YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION

We maintain physical, technical, and administrative safeguards to protect the confidentiality and security of information transmitted to us. However, no data transmission over the Internet or other network can be guaranteed to be 100% secure. As a result, while we strive to protect information transmitted on or through our Store also by implementing adequate security measures as required by the applicable laws, we cannot and do not guarantee the security of any information you transmit on or through our Store, and you do so at your own risk. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, we do not accept liability for unintentional disclosure.
