DEFINITIONS OF TERMS USED IN PRIVACY POLICY
Browsing Information
​
Browsing Information is information collected through cookies and web beacons to track what products you viewed and purchased online, what areas or pages you viewed on our website, and other information about your browser and browsing behaviour. We use browsing information to improve the design and content of our website, 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 gauge the success of our advertising campaigns.
​
Cookies
A “cookie” is a computer file that acts as an identification card for your computer. When you visit our sites, unique cookies are placed on your browser. The purpose of the cookie is to distinguish your browser from all other browsers that visit our sites. By recognizing your browser, we can serve you better. For example, the cookies allow us to hold the selections in your shopping cart when you navigate away from the order page on our website and then return to complete the order; because of the cookie, you don’t have to start over with your shopping. We can also keep track of what pages of our website your browser visited and whether you purchased a product. That way we can measure such things as how effective our advertising campaigns have been. Working with third-party advertising companies, the use of cookies also enables us to provide you with customized banner ads on different websites, customized content on our website, and customized emails that we think will be more useful than randomly-generated ads and content because they are based on your past purchases and page visits to our website.
​
Interest-Based Advertising
​
Interest-based advertising has become commonplace across the Web. It is the term we use for the activity that enables us to tailor ads to your interests and activities. Either we, or third-party advertising companies we work with, may look at your browsing activity, such as the types of content you access, ads you click on, and searches you conduct. We can then infer certain interests you have and place ads and offer you deals that meet your needs. Our goal for interest-based advertising is to show ads to people likely to be interested in the products we offer.
Personally Identifiable Information (“PII”)
​
Any information that either actually identifies you, or can be used to identify you, is considered personally identifiable information or PII. The PII that we may collect includes your name, date of birth, gender, physical address, e-mail, phone number, fax number, and credit card information, purchase history, and your image and voice from our CCTV footage in our retail stores.
Third-Party Advertising Companies
​
We allow certain companies to collect information from browsers of our website to use to serve interest-based ads. These companies are usually third party ad servers, ad agencies, technology vendors or providers of sponsored content. Using cookies and web beacons, these companies collect data from a particular browser about web viewing behaviours over time and across unrelated websites and use such data to predict user preferences and to deliver advertisements to that browser which are calculated to target that browser’s predicted preferences.
​
Trusted Business Partners
We work with industry-leading business partners who help us operate our website and provide important services to our customers and visitors. Our business partners may change over time but we are committed to building relationships with third parties who are dedicated to providing you a safe and satisfying experience on our website. Our trusted business partners are contractually obligated to collect and use any information collected from you on our website or on our behalf in a manner that is consistent with this Privacy Policy.
​
Web Beacons
​
When you visit our website, web beacons will recognize specific cookies that have been placed on your browser. Web beacons can convey information that a browser with a recognized cookie has accessed a page or a certain part of a page on our website, depending on where the web beacon is located on the website. For example, a web beacon located on our purchase confirmation page will record that a browser with a recognized cookie accessed that page which means that we can conclude that the browser was used to purchase a product. The web beacon does not, however, tell us that you specifically (by reference to PII) have purchased a product because the cookie only identifies the browser and not you personally.
​
We use web beacons to suggest content and products that we think may be relevant to you, to measure the effectiveness of our advertising campaigns and to improve our website by recognizing which pages are visited and whether those visits result in purchases. Web beacons also allow third-party advertising companies we work with to select and serve banner advertisements to your browser that you would be most likely to be interested in.
​

Interest-Based Advertising
​
Our systems do not recognize browser “Do Not Track” signals, but several of the third-party advertising companies who utilize cookies on our website to provide interest-based advertising enable you to opt out of those practices. If you would like to learn more about interest-based advertising and see what choices you may have about how companies use your information, please go to http://aboutads.info/choices/ or http://www.networkadvertising.org/choices/ . We do not operate or control these sites, and are not responsible for the opt-out choices available there. The only way to fully opt-out of online tracking is to adjust your browser settings to reject cookies or to notify you when a cookie is set. Please remember, even if you opt out of interest-based advertising on or through http://www.networkadvertising.org or other opt out sites or services you may still receive marketing material from us, as interest-based ads are only one form of advertising. You may opt out of receiving any marketing material from us as set out above.
Finally, it is important to note that in most cases opting out drops an “opt-out cookie” on your browser. As a result, if you delete, block or otherwise restrict cookies or use a different computer or browser, you’ll need to renew your opt-out choice.
Controlling Cookies
​
Because cookies and web beacons are the technology generally driving collection of browsing information, you can also block cookies to control data collection related to interest-based advertising.

Cookies also allow us to recognize you as an account holder when you return to our sites. Most browsers accept cookies automatically.
