In addition, we do not sell the personal information of minors under 16 years old who are California residents.

Other Parties

Our Service may provide links to websites, locations, platforms, and services operated and owned by other parties which are outside our control and not covered by this Privacy Policy. We encourage you to review the privacy policies posted on these (and all) websites and services. There may be Tracking Technologies on unaffiliated websites and services used to independently collect information about you and may solicit information from you. The information collected and stored by other parties, whether through our Service or their services, or Social Features (defined below), remains subject to their own policies and practices, including what information they share with us, your rights, and choices on their services and devices.

Social Features

We may allow you to connect our Service to another website or offer our Service through another party’s service (“Social Features”). If you use a Social Feature, both we and the applicable owner or operator of the Social Features may have access to and use information associated with your use of the Social Features, and you should carefully review their privacy policy and terms of use. Some examples of Social Features include the following:

Liking and Sharing. We may embed a pixel or SDK on our Service that allows you to “like” or “share” content on your Woow Me Jewel account through another website or service, including social networks such as Facebook, Twitter, and Pinterest. If you choose to interact with social networks through our Service, we may collect any information you have authorized the social network to share with us (such as your user ID, billing information, public profile information, email address, birthday, friends list, and other account and profile data). Likewise, if you choose to interact with other websites or services through our Service or visit our Service while logged into another party’s service, that other party may receive information about your activities on our Service and be able to associate that information with information the other party already has about you.
Brand Pages. We may offer our content on social networks such as Facebook, Instagram, and Pinterest. Any information you provide to us when you engage with our content (such as through our brand page or via Facebook Messenger) is treated in accordance with this Privacy Policy. Also, if you publicly reference our Service on another website or service including social networks (e.g., by using a hashtag associated with Woow Me Jewel in a post), we may use your reference on or in connection with our Service.

Analytics and Interest-Based Advertising

Our Service contains Tracking Technologies owned and operated by vendors and other parties. For example, we use Tracking Technologies from analytics providers, such as Google Analytics, to help us analyze your use of the Service, compile statistic reports on the Service’s activity, and provide us with other services relating to Service activity and internet usage. We also work with ad-serving services, advertisers, and other parties to serve advertisements on the Service and/or on other websites and services. These other parties may use Tracking Technologies on our Service (including in emails and advertisements) and on other websites and services to track your activities across time and services for purposes of associating the different devices you use, and delivering relevant ads and/or other content to you on our Service and other parties’ services or devices after you have left the Service (“Interest-Based Advertising”).

We may serve ads on other websites and services, which are targeted to reach people (or similar people) who have visited our Service or that are also identified in one or more of our databases (“Matched Ads”). This is done by us uploading a customer list to another party or incorporating a pixel from another party into our own Service, and the other party matches common factors between our data and their data. For instance, we incorporate the Facebook pixel on our Service and may share your email address with Facebook as part of our use of Facebook Custom Audiences.

As indicated above, vendors and other parties may act as our service providers, or in certain contexts, independently decide how to process your information.

For further information on Tracking Technologies and your rights and choices regarding them, please see the sections entitled “Information Collected Automatically” above and “Your Rights and Choices” below.

Your Rights and Choices

You may access, update, or remove certain account information that you have voluntarily submitted to us through the Service. If you would like to update or revise the information in your account, you may do so through your account or by contacting us as outlined in the section entitled “Contact Us” below. We may require additional information from you to allow us to confirm your identity. Please note that we will retain and use your information as necessary to comply with our legal obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce our agreements. California residents and data subjects in Europe have additional rights as outlined in the sections entitled “Additional Disclosures for California Residents” and “Additional Disclosures for Data Subjects in Europe” below.

Tracking Technology Choices

Cookies and Pixels. You are free to decline our cookies. Most browsers allow you to refuse cookies by activating the setting on your browser which allows you to refuse the setting of all or some cookies. If you use multiple browsers on your device, you will need to instruct each browser separately. Your ability to limit cookies is subject to your browser settings and limitations. You can find out more about cookies and how to decline them at about.cookies.org.
Do Not Track. Your browser settings may allow you to automatically transmit a “Do Not Track” signal to online services you visit. Note, however, there is no industry consensus as to what site and app operators should do with regard to these signals. Accordingly, unless and until the law is interpreted to require us to do so, we do not monitor or take action with respect to “Do Not Track” signals or other mechanisms. For more information on “Do Not Track,” visit allaboutdnt.com.

Please be aware that if you disable or remove Tracking Technologies some parts of the Service may not function correctly.

Analytics and Interest-Based Advertising

You can opt-out of your data being used by Google Analytics through cookies by visiting tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout and downloading the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on.

Some of the other parties that collect information from or about you on the Service to provide more relevant advertising to you participate in the Digital Advertising Alliance (“DAA”) Self-Regulatory Program for Online Behavioral Advertising. This program offers a centralized location where users can make choices about the use of their information for online behavioral advertising. To learn more about the DAA and your opt-out options for their members, please visit aboutads.info/choices. In addition, some of these other parties may be members of the Network Advertising Initiative ("NAI"). To learn more about the NAI and your opt-out options for their members, please visit networkadvertising.org/choices/. If you are in the EU, please also visit youronlinechoices.com. Please note that if you opt-out of online behavioral advertising using any of these methods, the opt-out will only apply to the specific browser or device from which you opt-out. Further, opting-out only means that the selected members should no longer deliver certain Interest-Based Advertising to you, but does not mean you will no longer receive any targeted content and/or ads (e.g., from other ad networks).

We are not responsible for the effectiveness of, or compliance with, any other parties’ opt-out options or programs or the accuracy of their statements regarding their programs.

Communications

To opt-out of receiving email promotions from Woow Me Jewelry Ltd, please follow the unsubscribe instructions in our promotional email correspondence or contact us as outlined in the section entitled “Contact Us” below. Please note that opting out of promotional communication received from Woow Me Jewelry Ltd does not affect our non-promotional communications with you, including those related to your account, orders placed with Woow Me Jewelry Ltd, or our ongoing business relations.

Data Security

We implement and maintain reasonable administrative, physical, and technical security safeguards to help protect your information from loss, theft, misuse, unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, and destruction.

Despite the measures we take, transmission via the Internet is not completely secure, and we cannot guarantee the security of your information.

International Transfer

Woow Me Jewelry Ltd is based in Tanzania, and the information we collect is governed by the law of the United Republic of Tanzania. Your information may be stored and processed in Tanzania or any other country in which Woow Me Jewelry Ltd or its partners, service providers, subsidiaries, or agents maintain facilities, and by using this Website, you consent to any such transfer of information outside of your country. Data protection laws in the United Republic of Tanzania and other jurisdictions may be different from those of your country of residence. Your use of the Service or provision of any information, therefore, constitutes your consent to the transfer to and from, processing, usage, sharing, and storage of your information in Tanzania and other jurisdictions as outlined in this Privacy Policy. If your data is collected in Europe, we will transfer your personal data subject to appropriate or suitable safeguards.
