Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy (“Privacy Policy”) is designed to notify you about how PopSockets collects, uses, discloses, transfers, and otherwise processes personally identifiable information (“Personal Information”) that we obtain through our website (the "Site") or that you provide to us through purchase of our products and use of our services. Each time you visit the Site, you consent to the collection, use, disclosure, and processing of Personal Information in accordance with this Privacy Policy. If you are located in a jurisdiction outside the United States, you consent to the transfer of your Personal Information to our servers and computer systems anywhere in the world, including to countries that may not provide an equivalent level of data protection to the laws in your home jurisdiction. If you provide any Personal Information that relates to another person you hereby state and agree that you have obtained proper consent from such person for the collection, use, disclosure, and processing of such Personal Information as described in this Privacy Policy. If you have accessed the Site or used our Services within the last 12 months, PopSockets has collected and disclosed the categories of Personal Information described in this Policy Privacy during that time.

The Site actively collects Personal Information from you when you visit or register with the Site, when you send any email to the Site administrator or otherwise communicate with PopSockets, and when you request or submit any information to or through the Site. We may collect Personal Information such as your name, contact information including your email address, postal address, telephone number, user ID, details of the transactions you carry out through the Site, including payment information when you place an order through the Site and information related to the fulfillment of your orders, and other information that you choose to provide. We may also collect information and data about your internet connection, the equipment you use to access the Site, and details about your use of the Site.

PopSockets collects your Personal Information directly from you, when you provide it to us, or automatically, as you use the Site, through the use of cookies or other data tracking technologies. As further described in our Cookie Policy, we may use this Personal Information to register you with the Site, to respond to your inquiry or request, to post your submissions to the Site, to provide information to others regarding your use of the Site, and in any other way necessary in order for us to provide the Site to you. For example, we record and use Personal Information provided by you in order to process, fulfill, and ship your orders on the Site and to provide customer service to you. The information used will include your name, address information, shipping information, and contact information you enter in the shopping cart. We may also use Personal Information to notify you about products and services that may be of interest to you. If you wish to subscribe to our newsletter, we will use your name and email address to send the newsletter to you. You may unsubscribe from our newsletter at any time. If you no longer wish to receive our newsletter and promotional communications, you may opt-out by following the instructions included in each newsletter or communication or by emailing us at help.popsockets.com.

If you opt-in to have SMS notifications sent directly to your mobile phone, we receive and store the information you provide, including your telephone number or when you read a text message. You may opt out of receiving text messages at any time by texting “STOP” to our text messages. For more information about text messages, see our Text Message Terms & Conditions.

The Site may passively collect certain kinds of information that reveal the frequency with which you visit the site, the times and dates of your visits, the pages you reviewed, persons with whom you interact, and other information. Information is passively collected through various means. We use Internet protocol (IP) addresses to administer the site. We use navigational data, including log files and transmission data, to identify information about your web browser and operating system, the time period in which you visit the Site or a portion of the site and other the site members with whom you collaborate. We also use a third-party tracking service that uses technologies to collect and track aggregate, non-personally identifiable information about our Site visitors. This information is used to administer the site, report usage metrics, and otherwise operate, improve, and provide new Site content, products, and Services.

Like many Internet sites, the Site may use small text files called “cookies” that are sent to the hard drive of your computer to store bits of information related to your use of the site. Cookies can store a variety of information, including IP addresses, navigational data, server information, data transfer times, user preferences, and passwords. The ‘Help’ section of the toolbar on most browsers will tell you how to prevent your browser from accepting new cookies, how to have your browser notify you when you receive a new cookie, or how to configure your browser to reject cookies altogether. However, if you disable cookies, your use of the site may be limited, and you may not be able to access certain functions or features of the Site. The Site combines passively collected information (as described above) with actively collected Personal Information, and this information may be recorded as part of your profile.

PopSockets does not share, sell, rent, or trade Personal Information with third parties for their promotional purposes. We may disclose or transfer Personal Information (and any related information) as necessary or appropriate to: our subsidiaries and affiliates; our contractors, service providers, and other third parties in connection with our business; a potential buyer or other successor in the event of a merger, divestiture, restructuring, reorganization, dissolution, or other sale or transfer of some or all of PopSockets’ assets; or other third-parties with your consent. We may disclose or transfer Personal Information (and related information) to the foregoing parties as necessary or appropriate for our business purposes, including: to present the Site, Services, and products to you; to fulfill the purpose for which you provide the information; to protect our customers and the security of the Site; to carry out our obligations and enforce our rights arising from any contracts entered into between you and us, including for billing, collection, and protection of ourselves and our affiliated companies against liability; to respond to subpoenas, judicial processes, legitimate requests by law enforcement officials, and to comply with applicable laws, if we believe in good faith that the law requires it; to facilitate a sale, assignment, or other transfer of all or a part of our business or company; where we believe in good faith that it is in the interest of the health, safety, or protection of PopSockets or a third party; or for any other purpose disclosed by us when you provide the information or with your consent. In any of these situations, the recipient of the Personal Information may be located in the United States or another jurisdiction that may not provide an equivalent level of data protection to the laws in your home jurisdiction.

For example, we may disclose Personal Information to third-party service providers performing services on our behalf, including those hosting our servers and providing other technical support services. We use third parties, such as a payment processor to bill you for products, and a shipping company to ship your order. When you purchase a product, we will share your name, address, purchase amount, and other details as necessary for the third party to provide their service. When shipping an order, your contact information is shared with our shipping partner for the purpose of calculating postage, purchasing a shipping label, and tracking shipments. All such third parties are contractually obligated to comply with privacy terms and conditions consistent with this Privacy Policy and to only process data in accordance with our instructions.

If you contribute to a blog or review products on this Site, you should be aware that any personally identifiable information you submit there can be read, collected, or used by other users of the site, and it could be used to send you unsolicited messages. We are not responsible for the personally identifiable information you choose to submit in these public forums.

If you are a California resident, California law may provide you with additional rights regarding our use of your personal information. California’s “Shine the Light” law (Civil Code Section § 1798.83) permits users that are California residents to request certain information regarding our disclosure of personal information to third parties for their direct marketing purposes. To make such a request, please send an email to brandprotection@popsockets.com or you may contact us at: PopSockets LLC Attn:  Legal Department, 5757 Central Avenue, Boulder CO 80301.
