Terms & Conditions and Privacy Policy at Original Stitch

Lastly edited on June 30, 2021

Original Stitch ("us", "we", "our") provides this Privacy Policy to inform you of our policies and procedures regarding the collection, use and disclosure of personal information we receive from users of originalstitch.com ("site"). This Privacy Policy applies only to information that you provide to us through this site. This Privacy Policy may be updated from time to time. We will notify you of any material changes by posting the new Privacy Policy on the site. You are advised to consult this policy regularly for any changes.

As used in this policy, the terms "using" and "processing" information include using cookies on a computer, subjecting the information to statistical or other analysis and using or handling information in any way, including, but not limited to, collecting, storing, evaluating, modifying, deleting, using, combining, disclosing and transferring information within our company within the United States or internationally.

Privacy Statement

We are committed to protecting your privacy. Authorized employees within the company on a need to know basis only use any information collected from individual customers. We constantly review our systems and data to ensure the best possible service to our customers. We will investigate any such actions with a view to prosecuting and/or taking civil proceedings to recover damages against those responsible.

Information Collection And Use

Our primary goals in collecting information are to provide and improve our site, services, features and content, to administer your use of the site and to enable users to enjoy and easily navigate the site (collectively, the "Service").

Personally Identifiable Information

  • We will only process your Personal Information (defined below) within the scope permitted by law. We will process your Personal Information based on the following grounds:

    • When we needs to process your Personal Information in order to perform a contract entered into with you.

    • When we receives consent from you for processing Personal Information.

    • When we needs to comply with legal obligations.

    • When processing of the Personal Information is necessary for the legitimate interests pursued by us or by a third party, provided that your interests and fundamental rights are not overridden by the above interests.

  • When you register with us through the site, when you join our mailing list, when you make a purchase via the site, or when you use social media login, we will ask you for personally identifiable information. This refers to information about you that can be used to contact or identify you ("Personal Information"). Personal Information includes, but is not limited to, your name, phone number, email address, postal address, and your picture that may be contained in your social media icon image. If you choose to make a purchase via the site, our third party payment processor service providers may also collect billing information such as your credit card number or billing address.

  • In order to access additional functionality of the site, you may be required to create an account for your use of the Service ("Account"). You may create an Account directly via the site. When you create an Account, you will become a "Member" of the Service.

  • We also collect the other information that you provide as part of account registration and your use of the Service (e.g., without limitation, zip code (on its own) and individual preferences) ("Non-Identifying Information").

  • We use your Personal Information (in some cases, in conjunction with your Non-Identifying Information) mainly to provide the Service, complete your transactions, and administer your inquiries.

  • Certain Non-Identifying Information would be considered a part of your Personal Information if it were combined with other identifiers (for example, combining your zip code with your street address) in a way that enables you to be identified. But the same pieces of information are considered Non-Identifying Information when they are taken alone or combined only with other non-identifying information. We may combine your Personal Information with Non-Identifying Information and aggregate it with information collected from other Original Stitch Users (defined below) to attempt to provide you with a better experience, to improve the quality and value of the Service and to analyze and understand how our site and Service are used. We may also use the combined information without aggregating it to serve you specifically, for instance to deliver a product to you according to your preferences or restrictions.

  • We also use your Personal Information to contact you with marketing and promotional materials and other information that may be of interest to you. If you decide at any time that you no longer wish to receive such communications from us, please follow the unsubscribe instructions provided in any of the communications or contact us at support at originalstitch.com with "Privacy" as the subject line of the email. (See "Changing or Deleting Your Information," below.)

  • When you use Bodygram function, we will collect image data of the whole body taken using a smartphone, etc., height, weight, age, gender, email and phone number. We use such information for the purpose of suggesting the most suitable size for you, for product development and for marketing purposes.

Log Data

When you visit the site, whether as a Original Stitch Member or a non-registered user just browsing (any of these, a "Original Stitch User"), our servers automatically record information that your browser sends whenever you visit a website ("Log Data"). This Log Data may include information such as your computer's Internet Protocol ("IP") address, browser type or the webpage you were visiting before you came to our site, pages of our site that you visit, the time spent on those pages, information you search for on our site, access times and dates, and other statistics. We use this information to monitor and analyze use of the site and the Service and for the site's technical administration, to increase our site's functionality and user-friendliness, and to better tailor it to our visitors' needs. We also use this information to verify that visitors to the site meet the criteria required to process their requests.

Cookies and Pixel Tags

Like many websites, we use "cookies" to collect information. A cookie is a small data file that we transfer to your computer's hard disk for record-keeping purposes. We use cookies for two purposes. First, we use persistent cookies to save your login information for future logins to the site. Second, we use session ID cookies to enable certain features of the site, to better understand how you interact with the site and to monitor aggregate usage by Original Stitch Users and web traffic routing on the site. Unlike persistent cookies, session cookies are deleted from your computer when you log off from the site and Service and then close your browser. You can instruct your browser, by changing its options, to stop accepting cookies or to prompt you before accepting a cookie from the websites you visit. If you do not accept cookies, however, you may not be able to use all portions of the site or all functionality of the Service.

We may also use "pixel tags," "web beacons," "clear GIFs" or similar means (individually or collectively "Pixel Tags") in connection with our Service to collect usage, demographic and geographical location data. A Pixel Tag is an electronic image, often a single pixel that is ordinarily not visible to users and may be associated with cookies on a user's hard drive. Pixel Tags allow us to count users who have visited certain pages of the site, to deliver branded services and to help determine the effectiveness of promotional or advertising campaigns.

Phishing

Identity theft and the practice currently known as "phishing" are of great concern to Original Stitch. Safeguarding information to help protect you from identity theft is a top priority. We do not and will not, at any time, request your credit card information, your login information, or national identification numbers in a non-secure or unsolicited e-mail or telephone communication. For more information about phishing, visit the Federal Trade Commission's website.

Aggregated Information and Non-Identifying Information.

We may share aggregated information that does not include Personal Information and we may otherwise disclose Non-Identifying Information with third parties for industry analysis, demographic profiling, and to deliver targeted advertising about other products and services. Any aggregated information shared in these contexts will not contain your Personal Information.

Service Providers.

We may employ third party companies and individuals to facilitate our Service, to provide the Service on our behalf, to perform site-related services (e.g., without limitation, maintenance services, database management, payment processors, web analytics and improvement of the site's features) or to assist us in analyzing how our site and Service are used. In addition, we may share log data, cookies and pixel tags to our advertising partners, advertising technology companies, and companies that perform advertising-related services in order to serve you more relevant advertising according to your interests and preferences. These third parties have access to your Personal Information only to perform these tasks on our behalf and are obligated not to disclose or use it for any other purpose.

Compliance with Laws and Law Enforcement.
