Privacy Policy

We recognize the importance of maintaining your privacy. We value your privacy and appreciate your trust in us. This Privacy Policy applies to current and former visitors to our website and to our online customers.

This Privacy Policy explains the information practices that apply to personally identifiable information that we collect about you as an individual when you visit and/or use our website. Any information that we collect about you while you are visiting or using our website will be handled in accordance with this Privacy Policy and will not be shared except in accordance with this Privacy Policy.

Information We Collect

This section of our Privacy Policy describes the categories of information collected by Active Care Store. All data that we collect is processed and stored in “Define Our Server Space Location”. You have the option not to provide information, however, withholding information may prevent you from being able to use some of our website features.

  • Information Collected Automatically: Whenever you visit our website, we automatically collect some information about your transactions with us, and your use of our website. For example, we automatically collect your IP address, for Active Care Store internal use only, such as to help us diagnose problems with our server and administer our website. We also automatically track certain information about your activities on our website such as the type of web browser you are using and clickstream data. If you are a registered Active Care Store customer, we link this automatically-collected data to the personally identifiable information we collect about you described below. We use this information to do internal research on your interests and to help us better understand and serve you.

Use and Disclosure of Information

We use the information that we collect about you to maintain, improve, and administer our website, operate our business, provide products and services that you request, administer your account, inform you about products and services that might be of interest to you, and personalize your online experience.

In order to carry out certain business functions, such as order fulfilment, e-mail delivery, or marketing, we sometimes hire other companies to perform services on our behalf. We may disclose personally identifiable information that we collect about you to these companies to enable them to perform these services, but they are required to safeguard the data and are not authorized to use it for any other purpose than completing their contractual requirements to Active Care Store. For example, as a part of the normal process of completing your purchase, Active Care Store may provide your personal data to a third party payment processor, such as PayPal, depending on your chosen method of payment. Please be aware that, because of the limitations of the systems used by some financial institutions, the statement you receive from your credit card or financial institution may show the name of a third party payment processor, such as PayPal, instead of or in addition to the Active Care Store name. In addition, we may share the information we collect with other companies with whom we have joint marketing arrangements.

We may also disclose information, including personal information, we collect about you in other circumstances as required or permitted by law. For example, Active Care Store reserves the right to disclose personal information, including account information, when we believe such disclosure is appropriate to cooperate with an investigation of activities claimed to be unlawful, to enforce our Terms of Use, or to protect the rights or property of Active Care Store or others. In addition, it is possible that in the future another company may acquire Active Care Store or its assets. It is also possible that Active Care Store may partner with or purchase another company to continue to do business as a combined entity. In the event that this occurs, it is possible that our customer information, including your personal information, may be transferred to the new business entity as one of Active Care Store’s assets. In such an event, we will update this policy to reflect any change in ownership or control of your personal information.
