​

Online Tracking

When you use our Services, we and our third party partners (which provide content, advertising, functionality, measurements, or analytics for our Services) may use cookies, web beacons, and other similar technologies to track your use of the Services.

​

What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files that are stored in your device’s browser when you visit a website. Cookies make it possible to recognize you as the same user across one or more browsing sessions, and across one or more websites. We and third parties use cookies for a variety of purposes, including remembering your sign-in credentials and preferences so that you do not have to input them each time you use the Services; allowing us and third parties to customize your experience using the Services, including by determining the most relevant content and advertisements to show you on our websites and elsewhere online; and allowing us and third parties to monitor site traffic and performance, so that we may improve our Services and your experience.

 

What are Beacons?

Web beacons (also called “web tags” or “pixels”) are tiny graphics or scripts that communicate information from your device to a server. Beacons can be embedded in online or mobile content, videos, advertisements, or emails. They allow a server to read certain types of information from your device, such as when you viewed the beacon (and thus the content in which it is embedded) and the IP address of the device on which you viewed the beacon. We and third parties use beacons for a variety of purposes, including to analyze the use of our Services and (in conjunction with cookies) to provide content and ads that are more relevant to you.

​

Third Parties

We rely on third parties to provide many features of our Services using data about your use of our Services and of other websites. These third parties may use cookies, web beacons, or other technologies to collect and process your personal data for the purposes of information storage and access; personalization of our Services; measurement of and analytics regarding the use of our Services; content selection, delivery, and reporting; and advertising selection, targeting, delivery, and reporting. For instance, third party analytics services use cookies, web beacons, and other tracking technologies to collect information such as your IP address, time of visit, whether you are a return visitor, and any referring website, in order to help us analyze how users interact with and use the Services, compile reports on the Services’ activity, and provide other data and insights related to the Services’ usage. We also allow our third party partners, third party ad serving networks, and unaffiliated advertisers (collectively, “Advertisers”) to use cookies, web beacons, and other tracking technologies to provide ads about goods and services that may be of interest to you. Advertisers may place a separate cookie on your computer, mobile device, or browser, or utilize other data collection and tracking technologies, to collect information such as your IP address, browser type, server being used, area code and zip code associated with your server, and whether you respond to particular ads. Advertisers may collect information about your online activities over time, across different computers, devices, and browsers, and across different websites and other online services. Advertisers may use this information to provide interest-based advertising or other targeted content. We may not have access to these cookies, although we may use statistical information arising from the cookies provided by these third parties to customize content and for the other purposes described above. Advertisers may also transfer this
information to other parties where required to do so by law, or where such other parties process the information on their behalf. Advertisers may use persistent identifiers to track your internet usage across other websites in their networks beyond our Services. Advertisers may be able to re-identify this information do so by combining information they collect about you when you use the Services with information about you obtained from other sources. In general, the information collected and generated by third parties is processed and stored by the third parties and will be subject to their respective privacy policies (which we do not control and for which we are not responsible). We do not control these third parties’ tracking technologies or the information they may collect.

​

Privacy Choices

Turning Off Cookies.

​

Most web browsers automatically accept cookies, but also usually allow you to modify your settings to disable or reject cookies. If you delete your cookies or if you set your web browser to decline cookies, however, some features of the Services may not work or may not work as designed. You can usually find these settings in the Options or Preferences menu of your browser.

​

Opting Out of Targeted Advertising.

Many of the third party advertisers that use tracking or targeting tools in connection with our Services either directly, or are members of programs that offer you additional choices regarding the collection and use of your information. You can learn more about the options available to limit these third parties’ collection and use of your information by visiting their websites:

​

The Services may use Google Analytics to track your usage. If you wish to opt-out of Google Analytics’ tracking, use this browser add-on provided by Google. Similarly, you can learn about your options to opt-out of mobile app tracking by certain advertising networks through your device settings. For more information about how to change these settings for Apple, Android or Windows devices, see:

​

Please note that opting-out of advertising networks’ tracking and targeting does not mean that you will not receive advertising while using our Services or on other websites, nor will it prevent the receipt of interest-based advertising from third parties that do not participate in these programs. It will exclude you, however, from interest-based advertising conducted through participating networks, as provided by their policies and choice mechanisms.

 

Do Not Track.

Your browser or device may include “Do Not Track” functionality. Because a “Do Not Track” compliance protocol has not yet been finalized, our information collection and disclosure practices, and the choices that we provide to customers, will continue to operate as described in this Privacy Policy, whether or not a Do Not Track signal is received.

​

You can request to access, review, correct, update, delete or modify your registration or subscription profile information (if such information exists) and modify your marketing preferences (where applicable) by contacting us via the contact form below. Please note that if you have subscribed or registered for multiple of our Services or subscriptions, you may need to update your information for each account separately.

​

Responding to Requests.

For your protection, we may only implement requests with respect to the personal information associated with the particular email address that you use to send us your request, and we may need to verify your identity before implementing your request. Please note that we may need to retain certain information for recordkeeping purposes and/or to complete any transactions you began prior to requesting such change or deletion (e.g., when you make a purchase or enter a promotion, you may not be able to change or delete the personal information provided until after the completion or cancelation of such purchase or promotion).

​

Other Important Information

​

How Your Information Is Secured.

We take reasonable security measures to protect your information, including the use of physical, technical and administrative controls. Please understand, however, that while we try our best to safeguard your personal information once we receive it, no transmission of data over the Internet or any other public network can be guaranteed to be 100% secure. You need to help protect the privacy of your own information. You must take precautions to protect the security of any personal information that you may transmit over any home networks, wireless routers, wireless (WiFi) networks or similar devices by using encryption and other techniques to prevent unauthorized persons from intercepting or receiving any of your personal information. You are responsible for the security of your information when using unencrypted, open access or otherwise unsecured networks.

​

How Long Your Information Is Stored.

The time period for which we keep information varies according to the purpose for which it is used for. In some cases, there are legal requirements to keep data for a minimum period. Unless there is a specific legal requirement for us to keep the information, we will retain it for no longer than is necessary for the purposes for which the data was collected or for which it is to be further processed.

​

Emails and Newsletters.

You may always opt-out of receiving future e-mail marketing messages and newsletters from us by following the instructions contained within the emails and newsletters, or by e-mailing, calling or writing us at the addresses in the “Questions” section of the Privacy Policy below.

 

Children’s Information.

The Services are not intended for children under 13 years of age. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13 years of age. If you are under 13 years of age, do not provide personal information to us without providing us with consent from your parents. If we discover that a child under the age of 13 has provided us with personal information and we do not have parental consent, we will immediately delete that child’s information. If you believe we have been provided with the personal information of a child under the age of 13 without parental consent, please notify us immediately.

 

CONTACT US

If you have questions about our Privacy Policy, please contact us by contacting us through the contact form. If you are a California resident inquiring about your California privacy rights, please include “California Privacy Rights Request” in the subject line of your email.

 

California Privacy Notice

Last Updated: October 7, 2020

These additional disclosures and rights apply only to individuals who reside in California beginning January 1, 2020. The California Consumer Privacy Act of 2018 (“CCPA”) provides additional rights to know, delete and opt out, and requires businesses collecting or disclosing personal information to provide notices and means to exercise rights.  In the past 12 months, we have collected the following categories of personal information enumerated in the CCPA:

  • Identifiers – including name, email address, phone number, and IP address.

  • Demographics – such as your age or gender. This category includes data that may qualify as protected classifications under other California or federal laws.

  • Commercial information – including purchases and engagement with our Services.

  • Internet activity – including your interactions with our Services.

  • Geolocation data – including location enabled services such as WiFi and GPS.

  • Employment and education data – including information you provide when you apply for a job with us.

  • Inferences – including information about your interests, preferences and favorites.

​

Caly's Fit Fashion and Finds does not generally sell information as the term “sell” is traditionally understood. However, to the extent “sale” under the CCPA is interpreted to include our activities such as those disclosed in this Privacy Policy as a “sale,” we will comply with applicable law as to such activity. GearJunkie discloses the following categories of personal information for commercial purposes: identifiers, demographic information, commercial information, internet activity, geolocation data and inferences. We use and partner with different types of entities to assist with our daily operations and manage our Services. If you are a California resident, you have the right to submit a verifiable request for certain information regarding the: (1) categories of personal information we have collected about you; (2) categories of sources from which the personal information was collected; (3) categories of personal information about you we disclosed for a business purpose or sold; (4) categories of third parties to whom the personal information was disclosed for a business purpose or sold; (5) business or commercial purpose for collecting or selling the personal information; and (6) specific pieces of personal information we have collected about you during the preceding 12 months.. If you are a California resident, you also have the right to submit a verifiable request that we delete the personal information we have collected from you. To exercise the right to know or the right to delete, please email us through the contact form in this website. In the request, please specify which right you are seeking to exercise and the scope of the request. We may require specific information from you to help us verify your identity and process your request.  If we are unable to verify your identity, we may deny your requests to know or delete. If you are a California resident, to the extent we sell your personal information as the term “sell” is defined under the California Consumer Privacy Act, you have the right to opt-out of the sale of your personal information by us to third parties at any time. You may submit a request to opt-out by clicking the “Do Not Sell My Personal Information” link in the footer of this website. You may also submit a request to opt-out by emailing contacting us through the contact form. You can designate an authorized agent to submit requests on your behalf. However, we will require written proof of the agent’s permission to do so and verify your identity directly. The CCPA further provides you with the right to not be discriminated against (as provided for in the CCPA) for exercising your access, deletion or sale opt-out rights.

 

California Shine the Light Rights

California residents may request a list of the categories of personal information disclosed by GearJunkie to third parties during the immediately preceding calendar year for those third parties’ own direct marketing purposes. To exercise a request, please write us at the email or postal address set out in “Contact Us” above and specify that you are making a “California Shine the Light Request.” We may require additional information from you to allow us to verify your identity and are only required to respond to requests once during any calendar year.
