Each time you access, browse or use the Sites, you agree to be bound by this Privacy Policy. If you do not agree to this Privacy Policy, you are not authorized to use the Sites and must discontinue use of the Sites immediately. 

 

We reserve the right to change this Privacy Policy at any time. If we make material changes to this Privacy Policy, we will notify you by updating the date of this Privacy Policy and posting it on the Website. You can see when the Privacy Policy was last revised by referring to the "Last Revised" date at the top of this page.

  1. COMMUNICATIONS WITH YOU

 

If you have provided us with your contact information or requested information from Bijan, we will communicate with you through email, postal mail, and/or other methods of communications.

  1. HOW WE SHARE YOUR INFORMATION WITH THIRD PARTIES

 

Bijan will not sell your information or disclose your information to third parties for their direct marketing purposes.

We share your information with service providers who use it to help provide our services to you. We request that our service providers only use your information in the course of the services they provide to us. 

 

We use Shopify, an online e-commerce platform, as our service provider to power and operate the Website, as well as to process payments on our Website and collect and analyze your information for us. We use Shopify Analytics (which in turn uses Google Analytics) to help us understand how our customers use our Website.

You can opt-out from being tracked by Google Analytics in the future by downloading and installing Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on for your current web browser here: https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout.

We also may share your information to comply with applicable laws and regulations, to respond to a subpoena, search warrant or other lawful request for information we receive, or to otherwise protect our rights, in connection with a suspected violation of the Terms of Use, to investigate, prevent or take action regarding suspected illegal activities, fraud or potential threats, or to exercise legal rights or defend against claims, when we believe that doing so may protect your safety or the safety of Bijan, or others; as otherwise in accordance with or required by law; or as otherwise authorized by you.

 

Occasionally, we may use and share aggregate information or other information about you that does not reveal your identity. The use and disclosure of such information is not subject to any restrictions under this Privacy Policy. In addition, we may de-identify your information and share it in a de-identified or aggregated form with third parties, advertisers and/or business partners to analyze the Sites’ usage or demographics, or improve our content or services, improve our user experience, or for similar purposes.  We will not re-identify such data and we ask our contracting parties to agree to keep the data in its de-identified form.

 

  1. HOW WE RESPOND TO “DO NOT TRACK” SIGNALS

 

Please note that we do not alter our Sites’ data collection and use practices when we see a “Do Not Track” or similar signal from your browser. However, we reserve the right to do so in the future without notice to you. To find out more about “Do Not Track,” please visit http://www.allaboutdnt.com.

 

  1. YOUR CHOICES

 

We offer the following choices to update, correct, or limit the information collected through your use of the Sites. However, these options are not absolute and, in certain cases, we may decline your request as permitted by law.

 

Choose to Withhold. Your disclosure of information is voluntary. If you do not consent to the collection or use of your information, please do not use the Bijan Sites or provide information to us. By using the Sites and services provided by Bijan, you are effectively “opting in” to the collection and use of information as described in this Privacy Policy and as permitted by law. You may choose to withhold some, but not all information. However, if you choose not to provide certain information, you may be unable to access, browse or use the Website and/or Sites.

 

Choose to Correct. You are responsible for keeping your information current. You may update your information at any time by contacting us at clientservices@bijan.com  We will use reasonable efforts to process any update or correction you request.

 

Choose to Delete. You may request that certain information we have collected be deleted. We are permitted, however, to retain certain information necessary to complete the transaction for which the information was collected, detect security incidents, protect against malicious, deceptive, fraudulent, or illegal activity, identify and repair errors and for various other reasons permitted by applicable law. Requests to delete information are subject to our internal reporting, processing and retention policies and all applicable legal obligations.

 

Choose to Opt-Out. If you prefer to unsubscribe or “opt-out” of promotional emails, follow the opt-out or unsubscribe instructions at the bottom of each promotional email.  To unsubscribe or “opt-out” of receiving promotional text messages, reply to us with a “STOP” text. To stop receiving promotional phone calls, contact us at +1(833)343-0071.  In addition, you may submit any of these requests or contact us as provided below.

You also may designate an authorized agent or representative to submit a request on your behalf if you also submit written proof of such authorization via email or phone as provided above +1(833)343-0071.

 

Verification Method. To ensure we do not inadvertently delete or alter your information based on a fraudulent request, we may verify your identity or authorization before we respond to your request. To verify your identity, we will generally match the identifying information provided in your request with the information we have on file about you. Depending on the sensitivity of the request, we also may use more stringent verification methods to verify your identity, including but not limited to requesting additional information from you and/or requiring you to sign a declaration under penalty of perjury.

 

  1. CHILDREN

 

The Sites are directed to persons 18 years of age or older, or the age of majority in their jurisdiction of residence. We do not knowingly collect information from children under age 18. If we become aware that a user is under age 18 and has provided information to us, we will remove the information from our files, except as required for our internal records and business purposes. If you are a parent or guardian and believe we may have inadvertently collected information from your child, please notify us immediately by sending an email to clientservices@bijan.com.

 

  1. INFORMATION SECURITY

 

We use reasonable administrative, physical and electronic security measures to protect against the loss, misuse and alteration of your information. However, no transmission of data over the internet or text message is guaranteed to be completely secure. It may be possible for third parties not under our control to intercept or access these transmissions or private communications unlawfully. While we strive to protect your information, neither we nor our service providers can ensure security of any information. Any such transmission of information to us is at your own risk.

 

  1. LOCATION OF SITES AND SERVERS

 

We are based in the United States and apply the laws of the United States in our privacy practices. Shopify’s servers also are based in the United States, and Shopify primarily stores data in the United States and Canada. If you access or use the Website or Sites from a location outside the United States, you do so at your own risk. We reserve the right to process or store your information within or outside the United States.

 

  1. ACCESSIBILITY
