Policy

 

This Privacy Policy outlines the practices of IKD Active, LLC ("IKD," "we," "our," or "us") regarding the collection, use, and sharing of information about users ("you," "your," or "user") when using our Services. Our Services include our website located at "IKDActive.com," any provided applications (including mobile applications), as well as any products, services, and social media pages offered through our website, applications, or interactions with us. This Privacy Policy covers your rights and responsibilities, as well as the protection of Personal Information, which refers to information that can identify you, such as your name, contact details, or user account information. Additionally, Personal Information may include data related to your use of our website. At IKD, we are committed to safeguarding the security and privacy of your Personal Information.

 

APPLICABILITY OF IKD'S PRIVACY POLICY

This Privacy Policy is an integral part of our Terms of Use, which govern your use and access to our Services. Throughout this document, we use the term "use" to encompass various activities, including access, transmission, exchange of information, and utilization of features, functions, or activities associated with our Services.

 

This Privacy Policy applies to the collection of Personal Information obtained from or about you through the methods described below (refer to "Information We Collect" and "How We Use Your Information") in order to provide our Services. It applies regardless of the means by which you access or utilize the Services. Furthermore, this Privacy Policy extends to our targeted content, including online offers and advertisements for products and services that may appear on third-party websites, platforms, and applications ("Offer Sites") based on your online activity. Please note that these Offer Sites may have their own privacy policies and terms and conditions, which we encourage you to review before using them.

 

However, this Privacy Policy does not govern the collection and use of your information by third parties such as IKD's service providers (e.g., Shopify, Inc. hosting our e-commerce website, PayPal, Inc. processing payments on our behalf, and social media pages). The collection and use of your information by these third parties are subject to their respective privacy policies, statements, and practices. We cannot assume responsibility or liability for third parties' compliance with privacy regulations.

 

Additionally, this Privacy Policy does not apply to websites linked to IKD's website or any websites accessible through our Services. While we may provide links to other websites that offer useful or valuable information, we have not assessed the security measures of those linked websites. Therefore, you should not assume that these sites have privacy policies equivalent to ours. If you access a third-party website through a link we provide, you will be subject to that site's privacy policy. IKD bears no responsibility for the content of any linked webpages referenced from our website. If you have questions about the privacy, security, or content of those sites, please contact the appropriate contact(s) directly.

INFORMATION WE COLLECT

Information You Provide:

We collect information directly from you when you interact with us, such as using our website, making purchases, contacting customer support, or participating in promotions or surveys. Providing this information is voluntary, but not providing certain details may limit access to certain products, services, or information.

 

TEXT MESSAGE/SMS CONSENT AND OPT-OUT

If you choose, you can provide your mobile phone number to receive text message alerts containing shipping information that may be sent via our third-party shipper, ("Carrier") using automated dialing systems ("Text Messages"). You agree that by providing your mobile phone number you expressly consent to receive automated text messages from Carrier to the mobile phone number provided. Message and data rates will apply and you should check the rates of your mobile carrier. You can opt out from further text marketing communications by following the opt-out instructions that will be sent to the SMS number used by Carrier to contact you. Please refer to Carrier privacy policy, found here, for how Carrier manages its information.

 

We may share your mobile phone number with other service providers with whom we contract to assist us with the above activities, but we will not share your mobile phone number with third parties for their own purposes without your consent. You acknowledge that Text Messages are distributed via third party mobile network providers and, therefore, we cannot control certain factors relating to message delivery. You acknowledge that, depending on the recipient's mobile carrier, it may not be possible to transmit the Text Message to the recipient successfully; nor is content available on all carriers. We do not claim or guarantee availability or performance of this service, including liability for transmission delays or message failures. IKD expressly disclaims any liability related to third party carriers or service providers.

HOW WE KEEP YOUR INFORMATION

We will store your Personal Information for as long as is necessary to achieve the purposes for which it was collected, whether that is to provide services to you, for our own legitimate interests (described above), or so that we can comply with the law. We reserve the right to retain it to the full extent not prohibited by law. We may delete Personal Information in our discretion, so you should retain your own records, and not rely upon our storage of any Personal Information, content, or other data.

 

We will review the information we hold and when there no longer is a user, legal, or business need for us to hold it, we will either delete it securely or in some cases irreversibly anonymize it. When we delete any information, it will be deleted from our active databases but may remain in our archives.

 

HOW WE PROTECT YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION

To prevent unauthorized access, maintain data accuracy, and facilitate the correct use of Personal Information obtained through our website, we have put in place appropriate physical, technical, and operational measures to safeguard and secure the Personal Information we collect online against unauthorized access, unlawful use, accidental loss, corruption, or destruction.

 

We also use operational measures to protect your Personal Information, for example by limiting the number of people who have access to your membership information. Access to Personal Information is restricted to IKD staff members and third party service providers who require the access for specific purposes, such as helping us provide the Services to you.

 

We use technical measures such as password protection to protect your data and the systems where they are stored. However, messages you send to us through the Internet or otherwise electronically may not be secure. We recommend that you do not send any confidential information to us by email. If you choose to send confidential information to us, you accept the risk that a third party may intercept this information.

 

We make reasonable efforts to keep your information safe and secure while shopping. We protect your online order and Personal Information by using Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) technology. All the data that travels between your computer and our servers is SSL encrypted, and then stored on a computer that is not connected to the Web. To make sure you are accessing a secure server, look at the lower left or right hand corner of your browser window after accessing the server. An un-broken key or closed lock (depending on your browser) indicates that SSL is active in your window. Some versions of browsers and firewalls don't permit communication through secure servers. In that case, you'll be unable to connect to the server so you won't have to worry about mistakenly placing an order through an unsecured connection.

 

LOCATION OF YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION / YOUR PARTICULAR CONSENT

You are giving us the following particular express, voluntary, and informed consent to a few activities relating to your Personal Information that is disclosed in providing goods and services to you, or for a purpose directly related to such purpose:

Consent to International Transfer and Disclosure of Personal Information: IKD is located in the United States ("U.S.") and is subject to the applicable laws of the United States (where data privacy laws are less stringent than in the European Union and certain other jurisdictions). We will store and process information we receive about you, as described in this Privacy Policy, in the U.S.

We are involved in business activities in a variety of countries. For example, our e-commerce store is hosted on Shopify Inc., a Canadian company. Shopify provides us with the online e-commerce platform that allows us to sell our products to you. Your data is stored through Shopify's data storage, databases and the general Shopify application. Accordingly, Shopify may transmit your personal information outside of the country, state, or province in which you are located.

You agree that IKD and those with whom we share your Personal Information ("Recipients") may disclose, transfer, process, and store your Personal Information outside of your country of origin to our affiliates, sponsors and partners, and any other third party service providers for the purposes described in this Privacy Policy.

Some of the recipients of Personal Information as specified above may be located in countries that do not provide a level of data protection equivalent to that set forth by the European Union and some other jurisdictions. If you submit any Personal Information or choose to access or use the Services offered by IKD such as our website, you consent to such disclosure, transfer, process, and storage of information in accordance with this Privacy Notice and subject to such applicable laws which may include access by law enforcement and other government entities including courts and tribunals. If we do transfer Personal Information outside the U.S., we will make sure that it is protected in the same way as if it were being used in the U.S. We will use one of the following legally recognized safeguards protect your information:

Consent to Electronic Notice If There is a Security Breach: We will take reasonable measures to safeguard your Personal Information and prevent such information from unauthorized access, disclosure, or use. However, there can never be a guarantee of data security. If we or a Recipient is required to provide notice of unauthorized access to or other invasion of certain security systems, you agree that we (or they) may do so when required (or voluntarily) by posting notice on our website or sending notice to any email address we have for you, in our (or their) good faith discretion. You agree that notice to you will count as notice to others for whom you are acting, and agree to pass the notice on to them.
