Terms and conditions
We value the users of our web site (the "Website") and their access to the services offered on it (the "Services"), and we know their privacy is important to them. Accordingly, we have implemented this Privacy Policy to inform you of the information that we collect from you, how we collect it, and what we do with it. By using the Website you are accepting the practices described in this Privacy Policy.
How and when we collect information:
We collect "personal" information from you when you provide it to us. For example, if you register for using our services, and you want to order, we collect your name, mailing address, telephone number, credit card number and email address. If you sign up to receive a newsletter, we will collect your email address. If you utilize Services or take advantage of special offers made by us or our marketing partners, we may collect other personal information about you.
What we do with your information:
We are committed to protecting your privacy. Under no circumstances do we rent, trade or share your e-mail address with any other company for their marketing purposes without your consent. We view protection of users' privacy as a very important community principle. We use your personal information for internal purposes such as processing and keeping you informed of your order. You may, from time to time, receive information from us about new features, new services and special offers we think you'll find valuable. We understand clearly that you and your information is one of our most important assets. We store and process your information on computers located in the Netherlands that are protected by physical as well as technological security devices. We use third parties to verify and certify our privacy principles. The personal information that you give us when you place an order or utilize one of the Services is used to process and fulfill your order or request. We also use your personal information for our own internal purposes, such as providing customer support or providing, maintaining, evaluating and improving the Services and the Website.
We cooperate with Pay Pal, secure online payment system. Pay Pal's Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) software is one of the best products dedicated to online money transfers security currently available in the market. The product enciphers your personal information, including credit card number, name and address, so it may not be read during its transfer via Internet.
Your choice to opt-out of certain communications:
If you are no longer interested in receiving e-mail announcements and other marketing information from us, please e-mail your request to info@j-ele.nl. Please include your complete name and mailing address (as well as your e-mail address) if you prefer not to receive direct mail postcards or catalogs. Note that you may still receive customer service related communications from us.
A Special Note About Children
Children (persons under the age of 18) are not eligible to use the Site unsupervised and we ask that children do not submit any personal information to us. If you are minor, you may only use this Site in conjunction with and under the supervision of your parents or guardians.
We link to other sites:
This Website may contain links to other web sites. Please be aware that we are not responsible for the privacy practices of such other web sites. We encourage our users to be aware when they leave our site and to read the privacy statements of each and every web site that collects personally identifiable information. This privacy statement applies solely to information collected by this Website.
IP address and cookies:
In addition, like almost all e-commerce web sites, we use "cookies".This is "non-personal" information about you, such as your browser type, your ISP, operating system, and your IP address. "Non-personal" information cannot be easily used to personally identify you. We may use your IP address to help diagnose problems with our server and to administer our website. Your IP address also may be used to gather broad demographic information and to recognize customer traffic patterns and site usage. This information aids us in merchandising and in developing the design and layout of the site. This information is not personally identifiable, and we may use selected third parties for marketing and analysis purposes.
Whether you want your web browser to accept cookies or not is up to you. If you haven't changed your computer's settings, most likely your browser already accepts cookies. If you choose to block all cookies you can still visit our website, but you will then have to select your country each time you come back.
One reason why we have chosen to use cookies is to store information concerning the country selection you make the first time you visit hm.com. In this way, you avoid having to select a country each time you visit us. The cookie also lets us know whether you have visited our website before and if so, which pages you have looked at. We never use cookies to store personal information about you. We use them only in order to make your visit easier and to keep track of the number of visitors to our website.
Securing your information
The security of your personal information is important to us. We follow generally accepted industry standards to protect the personal information submitted to us from unauthorized access or disclosure, both during transmission and once we receive it. However, no method of transmission over the Internet, or method of electronic storage, is 100% secure. Therefore, while we strive to use commercially acceptable means to protect your personal information, we cannot guarantee its absolute security. We assume no liability for any disclosure of data due to errors in transmission, unauthorized third party access or other acts of third parties, or acts or omissions.
Updating your personal information:
If your personal information changes, you may correct, update or remove personal information previously provided to us by signing in to your account.
Control of Your Password
You are responsible for all actions taken with your User ID and password, including fees charged to your account. Therefore we do not recommend that you disclose your password to any third parties. If you choose to share your User ID and password or your personal information with third parties, you are responsible for all actions taken with your account and therefore you should review that third party's privacy policy. If you lose control of your password, you may lose substantial control over your personal information and may be subject to legally binding actions taken on your behalf. Therefore, if your password has been compromised for any reason, you should immediately change it.
