PERSONAL INFORMATION PROVIDED TO OTHER PARTIES WORKING WITH US
We partner with authorized representatives, service providers, contractors and third parties as an essential part of Our business operations, which allows Us to make the Website available, offer products and services to You, process and deliver Your orders, and provide information and promotional material about products that may be of interest to You.
RP Lighting does not sell or share Your personal information in exchange for money.
(A) SERVICE PROVIDERS AND CONTRACTORS:
RP Lighting employs authorized service providers and contractors to assist with Website operations, online transactions, marketing, and analytics (such as for Website hosting, search engine optimization, customer relationship management, payment card processing services, advertising and marketing services, order fulfillment and delivery services, cloud storage services and other third-party technology services). RP Lighting and these authorized parties collect personal information and non-personal information, which may be provided to RP Lighting or to these authorized service providers and contractors, including Your interests and purchase behavior and what You have liked and clicked. RP Lighting may also provide Your personal information to its authorized service providers and contractors to facilitate processing and fulfilling and delivering Your order.
An authorized service provider or contractor receiving any of Your personal information from RP Lighting is required by RP Lighting to use and maintain that personal information only as authorized by RP Lighting.
(B) THIRD PARTIES:
RP Lighting may share Your personal information (see Collection And Use Of Personal Information” section above) with certain authorized third parties that provide marketing services to RP Lighting. These business partners use this information to provide You with electronic marketing communications that are tailored to Your individual interests, as described in more detail in the section “Third Party Marketing and Electronic Communications” below.
OTHER INFORMATION COLLECTED
RP Lighting, on its own or through authorized service providers, contractors and third parties, may also collect and use other information from You and about You that does not specifically identify You individually. Without limitation, this may include:
- purchase interests and purchase history information;
- preferences information (including marketing and communication preferences);
- information from Your internet browser whenever You visit or use the Website (sometimes call “Log Data” or “Log Files”);
- device information and usage data;
- internet service provider;
- referring and exiting websites and pages;
- operating system;
- which pages You visit on Our Website; and
- the time and date of Your visit and use of the Website’s pages.
SENSITIVE PERSONAL INFORMATION
Except for certain specific personal information that may be collected in connection with requests for financing from RP Lighting, We do not collect, nor do We request or require that You provide any sensitive personal information (e.g., information related to racial or ethnic origin, political opinions, religious, philosophical, or other beliefs, information related to sex life or sexual orientation, health data, biometric or genetic characteristics, criminal convictions and offenses, trade union membership, or specific geolocation), and You should not send Us and should not disclose to Us any sensitive personal information on or through the Website or otherwise.
AGGREGATING AND COMBINING INFORMATION
At times, We may aggregate certain personal information and/or non-personal information in a manner that does not identify You to determine information about Our customers, including product trends, sales histories, and where Our customers are located. We may also combine personal information with non-personal information. If We do so, We will treat such combined information as personal information.
USING NON-PERSONAL INFORMATION
Because non-personal information does not identify You individually, We may collect, use, and disclose non-personal information for any lawful purpose in Our sole discretion.
COOKIES, BEACONS, AND OPTING OUT
RP Lighting, its authorized service providers, and certain authorized third parties use digital tracking tools such as cookies and similar technology when You use the Website (e.g., cookies, web beacons and single-pixel GIF files). Cookies are small files that are transferred to Your device’s hard drive through Your internet browser that enables the Website’s or authorized service providers’ or third parties’ systems to recognize Your browser and capture and remember certain information. This helps Us to improve Your access to Our Website, identify repeat visitors, help ensure the authenticity of registered users, provide the mechanism for online shopping, and enable Website traffic monitoring.
We use session-based cookies and persistent cookies. Session-based cookies will last only as long as Your web browser is open and are deleted when You close Your browser. A persistent cookie will last until it expires or until You delete it. We rely upon authorized service providers and third parties to do so (called third-party cookies). These service providers and third parties may also use cookies, pixels and other identifiers to collect information that indicates how users interact with the Website (e.g., Google Analytics).
Using cookies helps Us do a number of things to enhance Your experience as a customer or potential customer of RP Lighting, including to:
- identify users and visitors to the Website, including new visitors and returning customers;
- process and save Your preferences for future visits;
- ensure You do not need to login multiple times through user identification tracking;
- compile analytics, statistics and reports on Our Website and web traffic activity;
- track and target Your interests to enhance Your experience on Our Website, including searches and web traffic adjacent to activity on the Website;
- offer products and advertising that may be aligned with Your interests; and
- provide other services related to the Website.
THIRD PARTY MARKETING AND ELECTRONIC COMMUNICATIONS
If You receive promotional materials or newsletters from Us, You may unsubscribe from these communications at any time by following the instructions contained in the emails You receive or by contacting Us at rplighting@rplighting.com, or using the information provided in the “Contact Us” section of the Website. Even if You opt-out of receiving direct marketing messages, We may still contact You about a purchase or order or in connection with other customer service activities.
DO NOT TRACK INFORMATION
Some browsers have a “Do Not Track” feature that lets You tell websites that You do not want to have Your online activities tracked. There is currently no uniform browser signal for this feature and no industry standard on how to respond to these signals. Therefore enabling/disabling the Do Not Track feature in Your browser does not ensure that all websites You visit will respond to the request.
RP Lighting does not recognize or respond to Do Not Track signals at this time. We will reassess Our approach to responding to Do Not Track signals once an industry standard is established.
