Cookie Notice 

This paragraph explains how Vesper use cookies and related technologies in the course of managing and providing our online services.  

What are Cookies? 

Cookies are small data files, which are downloaded to an individual’s browsing device (such as your computer or smartphone) when that individual visits a website.  Cookies allow us to collect certain information about your interactions with our website and other online services. We may also use other, related technologies to collect this information, such as web beacons, pixels, embedded scripts, location-identifying technologies and logging technologies (collect, “Tracking Technologies”). Tracking Technologies collect information that tells us how you use our Site, web-related products and Services. The use of Tracking Technologies does not give us access to the rest of your computer.

Your Choices

Most browsers accept cookies automatically.  You may be able to set your browser to refuse all or some browser cookies, or to alert you when cookies are being sent. For instructions, check your browser’s technical information. If you disable or refuse cookies, please note that some parts of this Site may then be inaccessible or not function properly.  However, you can still place orders over the telephone or by contacting customer service.  Please note that cookie-based opt outs must be performed on each device and browser that you wish to have opted out.

Choices About How We Use and Disclose Your Information

We strive to provide you with choices regarding the personal information you provide to us. We have created mechanisms to provide you with the following control over your information:

• Your Choices. You may review, edit, or request deletion of the information we collected about you at any time by contacting us at the addresses listed at the end of this privacy policy.  If your information has been shared with a third party, as described elsewhere in this Privacy Policy, then that third party has received its own copy of your data.  If you have been contacted by one of these third parties and wish to correct or delete your information, please contact them directly.

• Promotional Offers from the Company. If you do not wish to have your e-mail address/contact information used by Vesper to promote our own or third parties’ products or services, you can opt-out by clicking the unsubscribe link in the promotional email. This opt out does not apply to information provided to Vesper as a result of a service experience or other transactions.

• Targeted or Interest-Based Advertising. We may work with third-party advertising companies that collect and use information about your online activities across sites over time, in order to deliver more relevant advertising when you are visiting the Site and elsewhere on the Internet.  This practice is known as interest-based advertising.  The online advertising industry also provides websites from which you may opt-out of receiving targeted ads from our advertising partners that participate in self-regulatory programs. You can access these, and also learn more about targeted advertising and consumer choice and privacy at:  www.networkadvertising.org/managing/opt_out.asp, www.youronlinechoices.eu/, or www.youradchoices.ca/, and www.aboutads.info/choices/.  You can also opt-out of targeted advertising directly on the advertising platform by visiting https://www.facebook.com/settings/?tab=ads, https://www.google.com/settings/ads/anonymous, and https://advertise.bingads.microsoft.com/en-us/resources/policies/personalized-ads. Note that electing to opt out will not stop advertising from appearing in your browser or applications.  It may make the ads you see less relevant to your interests.  If you delete, block, or otherwise restrict cookies or use a different computer or Internet browser, you may need to renew your opt-out choice.  

• Google Analytics.  We may use Google Analytics to improve our Site’s functions.  You can choose not to be included in Google Analytics by visiting https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout.  

“Do Not Track” Requests 

Our Site currently does not respond to “do not track” or similar signals.

Sharing Your Personal Information

We may disclose your personal information as follows:

• With affiliates, contractors, service providers, and other third parties we use to support our business;

• For any other purpose disclosed by us when you provide the information;

• With affiliates if you opt-in to receiving communications from affiliates;

• To a buyer or other successor in the event of a merger, divestiture, restructuring, reorganization, dissolution or other sale or transfer of some or all of our assets, whether as a going concern or as part of bankruptcy, liquidation or similar proceeding, in which personal information held by us about the Site users is among the assets transferred; 

• To enforce any agreement, including any applicable terms of service;

• To establish or exercise our right to defend against legal claims; 

• To law enforcement and other government authorities such as legislatures, courts, agencies and litigants if we reasonably believe that such action is necessary to: (a) comply with the law and the reasonable requests of governmental authorities; (b) comply with legal process; (c) respond to requests from public or government authorities, including public or government authorities outside your country of residence; (d) protect the security or integrity of the Services’ information systems; and/or (e) exercise or protect our rights, privacy, safety or those of affiliates, clients, you or others; and

Protecting Your Information

To protect your personal information, we take commercially reasonable precautions and follow industry best practices to make sure it is not inappropriately lost, misused, accessed, disclosed, altered, or destroyed. However, no data protection procedures are entirely infallible. As a result, while we strive to protect your personal information, we cannot guarantee that it will be 100% secure. Your transmission of your information to our Site thus is done entirely at your own risk.

Third-Party Websites and Social Media

Our Site may contain links to other sites, including those of third parties or partners.  While we seek to link only to sites that share our high standards and respect for privacy, we cannot be responsible for the privacy practices other websites use.  By accessing other third party websites or applications through our Site, you are consenting to the terms and privacy policies of those websites.  It is possible that other parties may collect personally identifiable information about your online activities over time and across different web sites when you use our Site. 

Our Site may include social media features, such as Facebook “Likes” or “Recommend” buttons, Pinterest, Twitter, Tumblr, and YouTube.  These social media features may require cookies to be set to function properly.  These features may also collect Personal Information such as your IP address.  These features are governed by the Privacy Policy of the social media platform.  Please review the Privacy Policy of the social media platforms to learn how they protect your information.

International Visitors

Our Site is hosted and operated in the United States (“US”).  By using this Site, you are consenting to the transfer of your personal information to the US.  If you are accessing our Site from outside the US, please be advised that US law may not offer the same privacy protections as the law of your jurisdiction.  

California Visitors

California’s “Shine the Light” law (Civil Code Section § 1798.83) permits users of our Site that are California residents to request certain information regarding our disclosure of personal information to third parties for their direct marketing purposes. To make such a request, please send an email to contact@vesper.us.

European Union Visitors 

For our website visitors residing in the European Economic Area (EEA), the General Data Protection Regulation (“GDPR”) may be applicable.  The GDPR provides a framework for organizations to ensure protection of the personal information of European citizens and gives European citizens certain rights.  

Legal Basis for Processing 

If you are an individual located in the EEA, United Kingdom, or Switzerland, our legal basis for processing your personal information will depend on the personal information concerned and the specific context in which it is collected.  However, we will normally collect or process personal information from you only where: 

• We have your consent to do so; or

• We need the personal information to perform a contract with you (e.g. to deliver services).

In some cases, we may also have a legal obligation to process personal information from you or may need the personal information to protect your vital interest or those of another person.  If we rely on your consent to process the personal information, you have the right to withdraw or decline your consent at any time in writing or as otherwise permitted.  Please note that this does not affect the lawfulness of the processing based on consent before withdrawal, nor will it affect the processing of your Personal Information conducted in reliance on lawful processing grounds other than consent. 

Retention 

We will retain your personal information for as long as is needed to fulfill the purposes we collected it for, including for the purposes of satisfying any legal, accounting, or reporting requirements, unless a longer retention period is required or permitted by law.  

Rights to Access and Control Your Personal Information

Individuals residing in the European Economic Area, United Kingdom, and Switzerland have certain rights to access and control their personal information.  These rights include:

• the right to be informed;

• the right of access;

• the right to rectification;

• the right to erasure;

• the right to restrict processing;

• the right to data portability;

• the right to object; and

• rights in relation to automated decision making and profiling.

To make sure a request, please email us at contact@vesper.us with subject line “data subject request.”

Users Only of Legal Age of Majority

The Services are not intended for anyone under the age of 13 and we do not knowingly collect personal information from users under the age of 13. If a minor under the age of 13 has already provided us with personal information, his or her parent or guardian may contact us to request that we delete it.

Updates

We update the Privacy Policy from time to time, so please review it regularly.  If we materially change our Privacy Policy, we will notify you by contacting you through your provided e-mail address or by posting a notice on our Site. Your continued use of our Site will be deemed your agreement that your information may be used in accordance with the new policy.  If you do not agree with the changes, then you should stop using the Site and notify us that you do not want your information used in accordance with the changes.
