any Personal Data from a child under 13, please contact us at

A Note to Users Outside of the United States. If you are a user of the Playdex Site who resides in a country
other than the United States this section applies to you:
-
If you reside in the UK or any country within the European
Economic Area (“EEA“):
-
Playdex is the Controllers (for the purposes of the General
Data Protection Regulation 2016/679 (“GDPR”) and any
implementing legislation or legislation having equivalent effect
in the UK (together, “EU Data Protection Legislation”))
of your Personal Data.
-
The legal basis of our processing of your Personal Data as
described in this Privacy Policy is our legitimate interests
where those interests are not overridden by the impact on you
(unless our processing is otherwise required or permitted by
law). If you have questions about the legal basis of how
we process your personal information, please contact us at the
address or phone number above.
-
We ask that you not provide us with any Special Category
Personal Data (as defined in the GDPR), e.g., information
related to racial or ethnic origin, political opinions, religion
or other beliefs, health, biometrics or genetic characteristics,
or trade union membership, or any criminal background
information. If you do not consent to our processing and
use of such sensitive information, you must not submit such
sensitive information through the Playdex Site.
-
We may transfer your Personal Data to a country outside the UK
or EEA in accordance with requirements prescribed under EU Data
Protection Legislation. When we transfer your Personal
Data outside the UK or EEA, we hold it subject to appropriate
safeguards and controls and ensure a similar degree of
protection is afforded to it by implementing at least one of the
following safeguards:
-
We may transfer your Personal Data to countries that have been
deemed to provide an adequate level of protection for Personal
Data by the European Commission. For further details,

If you reside in Singapore:

You agree that your accessing or using the Playdex Site in any
way constitutes your agreement that (a) we may process your
Personal Data for the purposes identified in the Privacy Policy,
and (b) your Personal Data may be transferred to and processed
in the country in which it was collected and in other countries,
including the United States, where laws regarding processing of
Personal Data may be less stringent than the laws in your
country.
-
We may transfer your Personal Data to a country or territory
outside Singapore in accordance with requirements prescribed
under the Singapore Personal Data Protection Act (“PDPA“)
to ensure that we provide a standard of protection to Personal
Data so transferred that is comparable to the protection under
the PDPA. By providing your Personal Data, you consent to such
transfer.
-
Types of Data We Collect. “Personal Data” means data that allows someone to identify
or contact you, including, for example, your name, address,
telephone number, e-mail address, as well as any other non-public
information about you that is associated with or linked to any of
the foregoing data. “Anonymous Data” means data that is not
associated with or linked to your Personal Data; Anonymous Data does
not, by itself, permit the identification of individual persons. We
collect Personal Data and Anonymous Data, as described below.
-
Information You Provide to Us.
-
We may collect Personal Data from you, such as your first and
last name, e-mail, mailing address, and phone number.

Information Collected via Technology.
-
Information Collected by Our Servers. To make our Playdex Site more useful to you, our servers
(which may be hosted by a third party service provider) collect
information from you, including your browser type, operating
system, Internet Protocol (“IP“) address (a number that
is automatically assigned to your computer when you use the
Internet, which may vary from session to session), domain name,
and/or a date/time stamp for your visit.
-
Log Files. As is true of most websites, we gather certain information
automatically and store it in log files. This information
includes IP addresses, browser type, Internet service provider
(“ISP“), referring/exit pages, operating system,
date/time stamp, and clickstream data. We use this information
to analyze trends, administer the Playdex Site, track users’
movements around the Playdex Site, and to gather demographic
information about our user base as a whole. For example, some of
the information may be collected so that when you visit the
Playdex Site, it will recognize you and the information could
then be used to provide information appropriate to your
interests. Except as noted in this Privacy Policy, we do not
link this automatically-collected data to Personal Data.
-
Cookies. Like many online services, we use cookies to collect
information. “Cookies” are text files containing small amounts
of information which are downloaded to your computer or mobile
device when you visit a website or mobile application. Cookies
are then sent back to the originating site on each subsequent
visit, or to another site that recognizes those cookies. You can
find out more information about cookies at http://www.allaboutcookies.org/. Cookies are widely used in order to make sites work, or to
work more efficiently, as well as to provide information to the
owners of the platform. We use cookies to enhance the online
experience of our visitors and to better understand how our site
is used. Cookies may tell us, for example, whether you have
visited our site before or whether you are a new visitor. This
type of information is collected to make the Playdex Site more
useful to you. “Cookies” are small pieces of information that a
website sends to your computer’s hard drive while you are
viewing the website. We may use both session Cookies (which
expire once you close your web browser) and persistent
Cookies (which stay on your computer until you delete them) to
provide you with a more personal and interactive experience on
the Playdex Site. The Playdex Site uses the following types of
cookies:

The information gathered does not identify any individual
visitor and is aggregated. It includes the number of visitors to
our site, the sites that referred them to our site and the pages
that they visited on our site.
We use this information to help operate our site more

-
Do Not Track Browser Setting. We do not currently respond to “do not track” signals from
web browsers.
-
Pixel Tags. We may use “Pixel Tags” (also referred to as clear Gifs, Web
beacons, or Web bugs). Pixel Tags are tiny graphic images with a
unique identifier, similar in function to Cookies, that are used
to track online movements of Web users. In contrast to Cookies,
which are stored on a user’s computer hard drive, Pixel Tags are
embedded invisibly in Web pages. Pixel Tags allow us to send
e-mail messages in a format users can read, and they tell us
whether e-mails have been opened to ensure that we are sending
only messages that are of interest to our users. We may use this
information to reduce or eliminate messages sent to a user. We
do not tie the information gathered by Pixel Tags to our users’
Personal Data.
-
Collection of Data by Advertisers. We do not use third parties to serve ads on the Site or
collect personally identifiable information about your online
activities over time and across different websites.
-
Google Analytics. We use Google Analytics to help analyze how users use the
Playdex Site. Google Analytics uses Cookies to collect
information such as how often users visit the Playdex Site, what
pages they visit, and what other sites they used prior to coming
to the Playdex Site. We use the information we get from Google
Analytics only to improve the Playdex Site. Google Analytics
collects only the IP address assigned to you on the date you
visit the Playdex Site, rather than your name or other
personally identifying information. We do not combine the
information generated through the use of Google Analytics with
your Personal Data. Although Google Analytics plants a
persistent Cookie on your web browser to identify you as a
unique user the next time you visit the Playdex Site, the Cookie
cannot be used by anyone but Google. Google’s ability to use and
share information collected by Google Analytics about your
visits to the Playdex Site is restricted by the Google Analytics
Terms of Use and the Google Privacy Policy. You can avoid the
use of Google Analytics relating to your use of our site by
downloading and installing the browser plugin available via this

personally identifiable to you. We use this Anonymous Data to

Policy do not apply to these outside websites or content, or to any
