What Information Is Collected
We receive and store any information you enter on our Websites
or give us in any other way, such as via telephone, electronic mail, online or
otherwise. For example, this information may be collected when you contact us
for customer support.
Here are the types of information we gather:
Contact Information:
We collect and retain personal contact information that you
submit to us voluntarily and this includes, but is not limited to, your name,
mailing address, web address, telephone number, and e-mail address. This
information may include your full name, mailing address, phone number, email
address, and, where provided, your fax number. Such contact information may be
used, for example, to communicate with you when necessary with respect to
transactions. Additionally, we may collect contact information provided to us
during any correspondence relating to customer support, as well as in
connection with products and services offered on our Websites.
Financial Information:
We collect and retain certain financial information from when
you purchase our products and services. For example, when you sign up for any
other product or service through All Things Bride & Beautiful, we require
you to provide a credit card number and billing address before we will process
that application. We will not sell, share or rent any financial information
collected from you except as disclosed in this Privacy Policy or as necessary
to fulfil any order for our products or services.
Demographic Information:
We may collect and store anonymous demographic information
(such as your postcode, gender and age), and use this data to tailor your
experience on our Websites, provide content that we think you might be
interested in, perform general improvements to the Websites, and display the
content according to your preferences. Such demographic information may be
shared with partners, market researchers and other third parties on an
aggregate, non-personally identifiable basis. No personally identifiable
information will be linked to such aggregated demographic information that is
shared with third parties.
Other Information:
We collect and store certain types of information whenever
you interact with us. For example, our servers track the type of web browser
you are using
and the page from which you link. Additionally, we log IP
addresses (a unique number assigned to every computer on the Internet) in order
to improve
security, analyse trends and administer the Websites. We may
track your movement within the Websites, the third-party website pages from
which you were referred, access times and browser types. We use this
information to gauge the effectiveness of our Websites, track information for
statistical purposes and to improve the products and services we provide. We
collect this information to better develop a sense of what services our customers
need and identify areas of improvement to the Websites. We may use such
information for marketing purposes, and to send information to you that we
believe might be of interest. In addition, such information may be shared with
partners, market researchers and other third parties on an aggregate,
non-personally identifiable basis. No personally identifiable information will
be linked to such aggregated information shared with third parties.
We may supplement the information you provide us by acquiring
publicly or commercially available information as available in the public
domain or from third parties, for instance, to verify your address or to update
your information and to create a profile of your preferences. We tie your
personally identifiable information to information in the profile, in order to
improve the content of the Websites for you or to inform you about products or
services that we think will be of interest to you. From time to time, we may
also ask you to participate in surveys or other communications conducted by us
or third parties designed to help us improve the Websites or the products or
services we provide.
Cookies:
The Websites use “cookies” such purposes as enhancing your
online experience by making it easier for you to navigate through the Websites
and making certain features work better. Cookies are text files which are
commonly deposited by websites on a user’s hard drive when the user visits a
website. The file identifies a user’s computer and can record the user’s
preferences and other data about the user’s website visit. We do not extract
information about individual users during this process. Your web browser may
enable you to disable cookies, but please note that certain services may not
function correctly without it and your experience on our Websites may be
hindered.
Third Party Cookies:
We may use third-party advertising companies to serve ads on
our behalf across the Internet. These companies may collect and use information
about your visits to this and other websites and your interaction with our
products and services in order to provide advertisements about goods and
services of interest to you. However, no personally identifiable information
(such as your name, address, email address or telephone number) will be connected
with such information. They may use information about your visits to this and
other websites to target advertisements for goods and services and may
be used to keep track of user response to each advertisement.
These targeted advertisements may appear on our Websites or on other sites that
you visit. The anonymous information is collected through the use of a pixel
tag or cookies, which are industry standard technologies used by most major
websites. If you do not want such companies to collect this information you may
opt-out.
To learn more about the use of this information or choose not
to have this information used by certain third-party advertising partners,

cookies, use a different browser, or buy a new computer, you will need to renew
your opt-out choice.
Web Beacons:
The Websites may contain electronic images (called a
“single-pixel GIF” or a “web beacon”) that allow a website
to track the effectiveness of marketing campaigns. No personally identifiable
information will be transmitted via web beacons.
Telephone Recording and Monitoring:
To ensure All Things Bride & Beautiful customers
receive quality service, All Things Bride & Beautiful selects phone calls for recording
and/or monitoring. These calls, between All Things Bride & Beautiful
customers (or potential customers) and employees, are evaluated by All Things

How Personal Information Is Used
Our Use:
We receive and store any personal information you enter on
our Websites or give to us voluntarily in any other way and may use it to
contact you from time to time. We take steps designed to ensure that only the
employees who need access to your personal information to fulfil their
employment duties will have access to it. By registering on a Website and
providing your telephone number, you agree that this action constitutes a
purchase, enquiry and/or application for purposes of telemarketing laws.
Regardless of the fact that your telephone and/or cell number may be listed
with the TPS, you are providing your express written consent to receive future
information (including telemarketing) about products and services from us
and/or our affiliates, and you hereby agree and consent to our contacting you
using the information you have provided and will provide to us. This means we
may contact you by e-mail, phone and/or cell number (including use of automated
dialling equipment and/or pre-recorded calls), text (SMS) message, social
networks or any other means of communication that your wireless or other
telecommunications device may be capable of receiving (i.e. video, etc.). We
may also send you information or offers from time to time to the postal address
or email address we have on file (as further outlined in this Privacy Policy).
You further acknowledge that you are not required to agree directly or
indirectly or enter into an agreement regarding our telemarketing efforts as a
condition of purchasing any goods or services from us or our affiliates.
Electronic Mail:
From time to time, All Things Bride & Beautiful may use
your personal information to contact you by electronic mail concerning our
services. These communications are often intended to inform you of important
information regarding your account, or about general services provided by All
Things Bride & Beautiful and/or its affiliates. If you do not want to
receive email from us or our affiliates regarding new services, please click
the “unsubscribe” link which is included at the bottom of any email
you receive from us. However, in order to fulfil our service obligations to
you, we will continue to send you emails regarding your account administration,
as well as any necessary information, such as renewal notices and instructions.
By providing us with your email address you consent to receiving communications
from us electronically and all notices, disclosures and other communications
that we provide to you electronically satisfy any legal requirement that such
communications be in writing.
Service Related Uses:
We may use your personal information to contact you about the
goods or services you have purchased from us, or for other purposes in which
you have expressed an interest, for example, if you have contacted customer
service or made an enquiry. We will also provide you with service and account
related announcements. For instance, if the delivery of a service or product is
delayed we might send you an email, or other message, or if there is some
service issue with something you might have ordered.
Generally, you may not opt-out of these communications, which are not promotional
in nature. If you do not wish to receive them, you have the option to cancel
your services with us.
Protection of All Things Bride & Beautiful and Others:
We may release account and other personal information when we are required to
do so by law, court order, subpoena or other government or law enforcement
authority or regulatory agency, including ICANN, in order to enforce or apply
our Services Agreement or other agreements, or when we believe in good faith
that disclosing this information is necessary or advisable, including for
example, to protect the rights, property, or safety of All Things Bride &
Beautiful, our users, or others. This includes exchanging information with
other companies and organisations for fraud protection, credit risk reduction
or other similar purposes. Sites Other Than All Things Bride & Beautiful,
All Things Bride & Beautiful
has no control over and is not responsible for the privacy
policies or information gathering practices of other websites, including those
to which we
may link and those which may link to us. We strongly
recommend that you review the privacy policies of every online service you use
before submitting any personal information and direct any concerns to the site
administrator of that website.
How Long We Keep Your Personal Data.
We keep information only for as long as we need it to provide
you services, manage our business or as required by law or contract. Where you
have a contract with us, we will retain your data for the length of the
contract, and will further retain that information for a time period consistent
with our legal or regulatory responsibilities, after you terminate all your
services with us to resolve disputes, enforce our relevant Service Agreement,
and to adhere to the technical and legal requirements and constraints related
to the security, integrity and operation of the Sites. If you have any
questions about how long we will keep your specific data, please contact us.
How We Keep Your Personal Data Safe.
We work to protect the security of your financial information
during transmission by using Secure Sockets Layer (“SSL”) software,
which encrypts the information you input on the Site. However, no method of
transmission over the Internet or method of electronic storage is completely
secure and we cannot guarantee its absolute security. You can further help to
ensure your security by taking a few simple precautions. For instance, it is
important to protect against unauthorised access to your computer, and to be
sure to sign off when you are finished using a shared computer.
Limitation Of Liability
All Things Bride & Beautiful assumes no responsibility
or liability with regard to any theft, loss, alteration or misuse of personal
or other information lawfully provided by All Things Bride & Beautiful to
third parties, or with regard to the failure of any third party to abide by
this privacy policy or such third party.
