・Performance of a Contract. We may process your personal information when we believe it is necessary to fulfil our contractual obligations to you, including providing our Services or at your request prior to entering into a contract with you.

・Vital Interests. We may process your information where we believe it is necessary to protect your vital interests or the vital interests of a third party, such as situations involving potential threats to the safety of any person.
In legal terms, we are generally the ‘data controller’ under European data protection laws of the personal information described in this privacy notice, since we determine the means and/or purposes of the data processing we perform. This privacy notice does not apply to the personal information we process as a ‘data processor’ on behalf of our customers. In those situations, the customer that we provide services to and with whom we have entered into a data processing agreement is the ‘data controller’ responsible for your personal information, and we merely process your information on their behalf in accordance with your instructions. If you want to know more about our customers’ privacy practices, you should read their privacy policies and direct any questions you have to them.
- 4. WHEN AND WITH WHOM DO WE SHARE YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION?

Affiliates include our parent company and any subsidiaries, joint venture partners, or other companies that we control or that are under common control with us.
- 5. DO WE USE COOKIES AND OTHER TRACKING TECHNOLOGIES?
-
We may use cookies and similar tracking technologies (such as web beacons and pixels) to access or store information. We use them when you use our Service so that we can provide you our Service. Cookies help us to: (1) speed navigation and provide you with personalized fit recommendations; (2) remember Personal Information you gave so you do not have to re-enter it; (3) determine the effectiveness of some of our marketing efforts and communications; and (4) count the total number of visitors, pages viewed, and the total number of banners displayed.
Upon your first visit to our website, we offer you the ability to accept or decline cookies that are not essential to the use of the Services (e.g., marketing or analytics cookies). You may also choose to have your browser notify you when cookies are being written to your computer or accessed, or you can disable cookies entirely. If you disable cookies entirely, features within our Service or a Partner Site may not function properly.
- 6. HOW DO WE HANDLE YOUR SOCIAL LOGINS?
-
Our Services offer you the ability to register and log in using your third-party social media account details (such as your Facebook or Twitter logins). Where you choose to do this, we will receive certain profile information about you from your social media provider. The profile information we receive may vary depending on the social media provider concerned, but will often include your name, email address, friends list, and profile picture, as well as other information you choose to make public on such a social media platform.
We will use the information we receive only for the purposes that are described in this privacy notice or that are otherwise made clear to you on the relevant Services. Please note that we do not control, and are not responsible for, other uses of your personal information by your third-party social media provider. We recommend that you review their privacy notice to understand how they collect, use, and share your personal information, and how you can set your privacy preferences on their sites and apps.

If you are a resident in the European Economic Area (EEA) or the United Kingdom (UK), then these countries may not necessarily have data protection laws or other similar laws as comprehensive as those in your country. However, we will reasonably take all necessary measures to protect your personal information in accordance with this privacy notice and applicable law.
- 8. HOW LONG DO WE KEEP YOUR INFORMATION?
-
We will only keep your personal information for as long as it is necessary for the purposes set out in this privacy notice, unless a longer retention period is required or permitted by law (such as tax, accounting, or other legal requirements).
No purpose in this notice will require us keeping your personal information for longer than the period of time in which users have an account with us.
When we have no ongoing legitimate business need to process your personal information, we will either delete or anonymise such information. If this is not possible (for example, because your personal information has been stored in backup archives), then we will securely store your personal information and isolate it from any further processing until deletion is possible.
- 9. HOW DO WE KEEP YOUR INFORMATION SAFE?
-
We have implemented appropriate and reasonable technical and organisational security measures designed to protect the security of any personal information we process. However, despite our safeguards and efforts to secure your information, no electronic transmission over the Internet or information storage technology can be guaranteed to be 100% secure, so we cannot promise or guarantee that hackers, cyber criminals, or other unauthorised third parties will not be able to defeat our security and improperly collect, access, steal, or modify your information. Although we will do our best to protect your personal information, transmission of personal information to and from our Services is at your own risk. You should only access the Services within a secure environment.

finalised. As such, we do not currently respond to DNT browser signals or any other mechanism that automatically communicates your choice not to be tracked online. If a standard for online tracking is adopted that we must follow in the future, we will inform you about that practice in a revised version of this privacy notice.
