Personal Information We Collect
Information You Give Us
We collect personal information you give us, such as:
Account information. We collect personal information when you create an account, such as your first name, last name, email address and password.
Feedback and correspondence. You may share information with us when you respond to surveys, participate in promotions or events, request customer support or otherwise interact with us.
Sensitive personal information
We will never ask you to send us or submit to the Service any information related to racial or ethnic origin; political opinions or union membership; religious or other beliefs; your health, biometric or genetic information; information about your sexual preference or sexual orientation; or information about your criminal background.
Information we collect automatically
We use server logs, cookies and similar technologies to automatically collect information about your computer or device and how you interact with the Service. For example, we may record your application version, browser type, geographic location, computer or mobile operating system, Internet Protocol (IP) address (a number that is automatically assigned to your computer or mobile device when you use the Internet, which may vary from session to session) and your unique device, application or advertising identifiers. In addition to information about your device, we collect information about how you interact with the Service, such as the page that referred you, your search terms, pages or areas of the Service you use or share, the time and duration of visits, features you used, links you clicked on and the names and number of users you interact with.
See our Cookies and Similar Technologies Notice for more information about how the Service uses cookies and similar technologies to collect your information when you use the Service.
Tracking and Targeted Advertising
We may allow service providers and other third parties to use cookies and other tracking technologies to track your browsing activity over time and across the Service and third party websites. For example, we may partner with third party advertisers to display advertising on the Site or manage our advertising on other sites. These advertisers may also provide you targeted ads based upon your interests on third party sites. We also use third party website analytics services that help us analyze users’ interactions with the Site. Some advertising networks allow you to opt out of targeted advertising. For more information, visit http://www.aboutads.info/choices/ or http://www.youronlinechoices.com. See our Cookies and Similar Technologies Notice for more information about how the third party analytics, advertising and social media companies use cookies and similar technologies to collect your information when you use the Service. Some Internet browsers may be configured to send "Do Not Track" signals to the online services that you visit. We currently do not respond to do not track or similar signals. To find out more about "Do Not Track," please visit http://www.allaboutdnt.com. In some of our communications, we track clicks on links in the communications to content in the Service to help us measure the effectiveness of our communications.
Third party applications
You may choose to connect the Service with an external, third-party application, such as Google or Facebook. When you connect the Service to a third party application, we may receive personal information about you from that application. For example, we may receive your profile photo, information about your friends and your “likes” stored within the third party application. We may combine this information with other information we collect about you. Your settings in the third party application should allow you to revoke our access to it but it will not revoke our access to information we have already received. You may also be able to share information about your activity in the Service with your social media networks connected to the Service, and stop this sharing in your Service settings. The passwords you use to connect with third-party applications may be transmitted through the Service to the third party but we do not store them.
How We Use Your Personal Information

You can always opt out of these communications by following the opt-out instructions in the message or by contacting us. The website uses cookies to help keep track of items you put into your shopping cart including when you have abandoned your cart and this information is used to determine when to send cart reminder messages via SMS.
To create anonymous data
We may create aggregate and other anonymous data from our users’ personal information. We make personal information into anonymous data by removing information that makes the data personally identifiable to you.

For security, compliance, fraud prevention and safety
We may use your personal information as we believe appropriate to investigate or prevent violation of the law or our Terms of Service; to secure the Service; to protect our, your or others’ rights, privacy, safety or property; and to protect, investigate and deter against fraudulent, harmful, unauthorized, unethical or illegal activity. For example, we may use tools to scan your videos and other content in the Service for content that violates our Terms of Service or the law. We may also use information we collect about your device to detect users violating our Terms of Service and prevent further violations.
For compliance with law; legal claims
We may use your personal information as we believe appropriate (a) to comply with applicable laws, lawful requests and legal process, such as to respond to subpoenas or requests from government authorities; (b) where permitted by law in connection with any legal investigation; and (c) to prosecute or defend legal claims.

Our Service may include social media features, such as the Facebook, Twitter, Instagram and Tumblr widgets. These features may collect your personal information and track your use of the Service. These social media features are either hosted by a third party or hosted directly in the Service. Your interactions with these features are governed by the privacy policy of the company providing such functionality.
Payment Information
Any payment card information you use to make a purchase on the Service is collected and processed directly by our payment processor, Shopify and we never receive or store your full payment card information. Shopify commits to complying with the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI-DSS) and using industry standard security. Shopify may use your Payment Information in accordance with its own Privacy Policy here: https://www.shopify.com/legal/privacy.
Security
We use administrative, technical, and physical security measures to protect against unauthorized access to, or unauthorized use, alteration, disclosure, or destruction of, personal information covered by this Privacy Policy. However, no method of protection and no transmission over the internet is 100% secure and we cannot guarantee the security of your personal information.
International Data Use
John Elliott is headquartered in the United States and has service providers in other countries. Your personal information may be collected, used and stored in the United States or in other locations outside of your home country. Privacy laws in the locations where we handle your personal information may not be as protective as the privacy laws in your home country.

These links and integrations are not endorsements of, or representations that we are affiliated with, any third party.

Third party websites and services follow different rules regarding their collection, use and sharing of your personal information and we encourage you to read their privacy policies to learn more.
