This Privacy Policy describes how West Indian Diplomacy (“we” or “us”) collects, uses, and shares your personal information when you use our website www.westindiandiplomacy.com (the “Site”). 
 

Personal information we collect 
 

When you visit the Site, we automatically collect certain information about your device, including information about your web browser, IP address, time zone, and some of the cookies that are installed on your device. Additionally, as you browse the Site, we collect information about the individual web pages or products that you view, what websites or search terms referred you to the Site, and information about how you interact with the Site. We refer to this automatically collected information as “Device Information”. 
 

We collect Device Information using the following technologies: 
 

• “Cookies” are data files that are placed on your device or computer and often include an anonymous unique identifier. For more information about cookies, and how to disable cookies, visit http://www.allaboutcookies.org. 
• “Log files” track actions occurring on the Site, and collect data including your IP address, browser type, Internet service provider, referring/exit pages, and date/time stamps. 
• “Web beacons”, “tags”, and “pixels” are electronic files used to record information about how you browse the Site. 

We use Device Information for:

• Functionality: To recognize you on our website and recognize your previously selected preferences, including your preferred language and your location. 
• Advertising: To collect information about your visit, the content you viewed, the links you followed, and information about your web browser, device, and IP address. We sometimes share limited aspects of this data with third parties for advertising purposes.

You can set your browser not to accept cookies, and the website above tells you how to remove cookies from your browser. Some of our website features may not function if you disable cookies. Please note that we do not alter our Site’s data collection and use practices when we see a Do Not Track signal from your browser. 

We also collect data you provide to us directly. We refer to the data you provide as “Provided Information.” We collect and process data you provide when you:

• Register online, submit a form, or place an order for any of our products or services

The Provided Information we collect may include:

• Personal identification information (name, email address, phone number, etc.)
• Billing information (billing address, shipping address, payment information, including credit card numbers, etc.)

When we talk about “Personal Information” in this Privacy Policy, we are talking both about Device Information and Provided Information. 

How we use your Personal Information

We use the Provided Information that we collect generally to fulfill any orders placed through the Site (including processing your payment information, delivering products and/or services, and providing you with invoices and/or order confirmations). Additionally, we use Provided Information to: 

• Communicate with you; 
• Screen our orders for potential risk or fraud; and 
• When in line with the preferences you have shared with us, provide you with information or advertising relating to our products or services. 

We use the Device Information that we collect to help us screen for potential risk and fraud (in particular, your IP address), and more generally to improve and optimize our Site (for example, by generating analytics about how our customers browse and interact with the Site, and to assess the success of our marketing and advertising campaigns).
