Welcome to www.FlowersQatar.com (the "Site"), provided by Grey Matter s.a.r.l. ("we", "us" or "our"). We want you to feel comfortable using the Site, so we have created this Privacy Policy to let you know what information we may collect from you on the Site and how we may use that information. Please take a moment to review the terms of our Privacy Policy. By using the Site, you agree to accept the terms of our Privacy Policy. If you do not agree to the terms of this Privacy Policy, please do not use the Site.
Aggregate Information We Collect
From time to time, we also may collect general, non-personal, statistical
information about the use of the Site, such as visitors' IP addresses, how
many visitors visit a specific page on the Site, how long visitors stay on
that page, and which hyperlinks, if any, visitors "click" on. We collect
this information in order to determine which areas of the Site are most
popular and to enhance the Site for visitors. We may also group this
information into aggregate visitor data in order to describe the use of the
Site to our existing or potential business partners, sponsors, advertisers
or other third parties, or in response to a government request. However,
please be assured that this aggregate data will in no way personally
identify you or any other visitors to the Site. An IP address is a number
that's automatically assigned to your computer whenever you're surfing the
Web, and can be used to identify your computer. However, when we collect IP
addresses, we do so only in an aggregate fashion and not in a way that will
identify you personally.
Personally Identifying Information We Collect
In order to access certain information and features contained on the Site,
we may require you to register for an account on the Site or otherwise
provide us with personally identifying information ("PII"). The categories
of PII we collect may include, without limitation, your first and last name,
email address, mailing address, phone and fax numbers, and general
information about you. We may also may collect any other information you
provide us voluntarily or through your electronic communications with us. We
collect PII in order to fulfill our services to you and to ensure compliance
with our policies and applicable law. We may also may use your PII to
process requested transactions, customize the services we provide to you and
send you periodic communications by email or regular mail. For example, we
may ask for your feedback regarding the Site or provide you with promotional
or other special offers.
Cookies
Cookies are pieces of information that a website transfers to an
individual's hard drive for record-keeping purposes. Cookies make
web-surfing easier for you by saving your preferences while you're at the
Site. We never save credit card information in cookies. The use of cookies
is an industry standard -- you'll find them at most websites. By showing how
and when visitors use the Site, cookies help us see which areas are popular
and which are not. Information such as the total number of visitors and
pages viewed is most easily tracked with cookies. We may use the information
from cookies to make improvements and updates to the Site and to tailor our
services to our visitors' needs. You always have the option of disabling
cookies using your browser preferences. Most browsers are initially set up
to accept cookies. You can reset your browser to refuse all cookies or
indicate when a cookie is being sent. However, please be aware that some
features of the Site may not function properly or may be slower if you
refuse cookies. You may occasionally get cookies from our advertisers. We do
not control these cookies. The use of advertising cookies sent by
third-party servers is common in the Internet industry.
Links to Other Sites; “Public” Areas
Please be aware that when you are on the Site, you could be directed to
other sites that are beyond our control. There are links to other sites from
the Site's pages that take you outside our Site. These other sites may send
their own cookies to visitors, collect data or solicit personal information.
The privacy policies of these other sites may be significantly different
from this Privacy Policy. We are not responsible for the privacy practices
of these other sites and cannot guarantee the security of any of your
personal information collected there.
Security
Protecting the security of your personal information is very important to
us. If you register with us, your online account information is protected by
a password chosen by you. Access to that online account requires your
username and password. We recommend that you do not disclose your username
and password to any other person. When you transmit PII from your PC to our
servers, your information also is protected by both a “firewall” intrusion
detection system (a combination of computer hardware and software that helps
keep unauthorized visitors from accessing information within our computer
network) and, in certain circumstances, industry standard SSL (secure socket
layer) encryption. Once we receive your transmission, we will take
reasonable precautions to ensure its security on our systems using physical,
electronic and procedural safeguards. Unfortunately, no data transmission
over the Internet can be guaranteed to be 100% secure. As a result, while we
strive to protect your personal information and privacy, we cannot guarantee
or warrant the security of any information you disclose or transmit to us
online and cannot be responsible for the theft, destruction, or inadvertent
disclosure of your personal information.
Privacy Policy for Minors
We do not knowingly collect information from minors. If you are under 18,
please do not provide any personal information to us.
Changes to These Terms
The terms of this Privacy Policy may change from time to time without prior
notice to you, so please check this page periodically for any changes. Your
continued use of the Site following the posting of changes to these terms
will mean you accept those changes.
