If and when you reach this stage (monetary transaction), whether it be after making a purchase in our online store, or on other occasions, as the case may be, you will be redirected to the sites or platforms provided for these purposes (PayPal or others). As these monetary transactions and payments are not our responsibility, and not being involved in said transactions, OZIKO does not access, collect or consult your banking information or details (bank account numbers, credit card numbers or other similar banking or financial information). We strongly recommend that you review their policies before making any transactions.

This is called "tracking" information.

We may compile this tracking information and make it available to third parties. The primary purpose for making this information available to third parties is to develop statistics and establish your various demographic and/or geographic characteristics.

DOES OZIKO USE "COOKIES" OR OTHER SIMILAR FEATURES? IF SO, HOW ?

YES. As with the vast majority of Internet sites or Web pages, OZIKO uses cookies or what are known as web beacons.

These are small files that are transmitted by an Internet site or Web page to the random access memory or hard drive of your device or computer. These cookies save your preferences and can make your future visits more efficient. They may also record other information, such as a user identification number, the number of times you have visited a page or the site, which pages you have visited, your login and registration information and, sometimes, your purchase history. Cookies allow us to recognize if you are a registered user, customer, or member and thus recognize you when you enter our site or our online store. When you are a registered user or member, they also allow us to obtain information and track your use of our Site or Online Store. If you are not registered or not a member, cookies allow to know or obtain non-identifiable information or data about your use.

However, cookies cannot transmit personal information. Therefore, they cannot be used to reveal or establish your identity.

Cookies may be stored either for a limited time, usually for the duration of your visit to the site or our online store, or for a longer period, and on those occasions, the information collected by the cookies is stored on your hard drive and is recalled the next time you visit our site or online store.

The information we obtain with the help of cookies may be shared with third parties so that we can be informed of activities on our site or online store, the number of visitors we have received, and for other similar analysis. This information is essentially statistical in nature and is not linked to personal information and data. It therefore does not allow you to be identified.

You can place certain restrictions, control or block cookies with your device or computer. Simply use the settings and help topics contained within them or that are available in your system.

You should be aware that if you choose to block cookies, certain features of our Site or Online Store will or may not be available to you. Among other things, you will not be recognized as having previously visited or used our Site or Online Store, or as a registered user or member.

Web beacons are small codes that are placed on a website or web page, or in an e-mail message, and are used to transfer data. We work and will work with one or more marketing and advertising companies to handle our marketing, advertising and communications. These companies use cookies and also web beacons. This allows them and us to judge the effectiveness of our ads or other advertisements, whether by E-mail on our site, in our online store, or on the various social networks that we may use, and to learn more about the uses that are made of them.

The ad-posting technology uses non-personal information about visitors and users of our site or online store, as well as the sites on which we post ads or advertise, to deliver information to these individuals. A cookie may be placed on your browser, or your browser may recognize such a cookie. By using the cookie and "web beacons," our ad server, or the company handling our marketing may recognize a browser's cookie when it is used to visit us and help determine which banners or ads are attracting visitors to our Site or Online Store.

As with cookies, you can place certain restrictions or control "web beacons" with your device or computer. Again, just use the settings and help topics contained in those cookies.

BEWARE OF AND WATCH FOR PHISHING OR OTHER FALSE OR FRAUDULENT E-MAILS

You should pay special attention and beware of e-mails that appear to come from OZIKO but are in fact false, forged, spam, fraudulent or "phishing". WE DO NOT REQUEST SENSITIVE PERSONAL INFORMATION OR OTHER CONDIFENTIAL DETAILS BY E-MAIL.

WHAT ARE MY RIGHTS OR CHOICES REGARDING THE COLLECTION, THE COMMUNICATION AND USE OF MY PERSONAL INFORMATION OR FOR THEIR MODIFICATION OR DELETION ?

Of course, we wish to obtain your consent to the collection, the use and disclosure or communication of your information and proceed to such use in accordance with this Policy.

As you may have noticed in the information contained in the preceding pages, your consent allows us to communicate with you, to inform you, to offer you our products and services, to know your tastes and to notify you of our various offers.

DOES OZIKO KEEP MY PERSONAL INFORMATION INDEFINITELY ? FOR HOW LONG ?

As a general rule, OZIKO retains personal information for as long as is necessary to fulfill the purposes described in this Policy, or for the longest period of time required by applicable law in these matters. We want to ensure that we comply with the law.

HOW DOES OZIKO PROTECT MY PERSONAL INFORMATION ?

We are committed to protecting the information and privacy of all our customers, users, members and others who entrust it to us. To achieve this goal, we have taken measures and used means to protect personal information against loss, theft and unauthorized access, modification, disclosure or copying, that are appropriate to the sensitivity of the information and the purposes for which it is to be used. Employees, officers, agents, or other representatives of OZIKO, as well as its subcontractors, suppliers or other persons or companies who have or may have access to such information as and when authorized by OZIKO, and in compliance with this Policy, are also required to comply with this Policy and take appropriate measures that are necessary.

However, OZIKO is not and cannot be held liable in the event of theft, misuse, unauthorized use, unauthorized disclosure, communication or reproduction, destruction, loss, unauthorized alteration, fraud or any other situation beyond the voluntary control of OZIKO or the persons or companies described above, or which does not result from OZIKO’s gross negligence, or that of these same persons or entities.

Notes on PLUGICIALS

OZIKO has installed or will soon install some plug-ins that mainly apply to social networks. Among others, you will be able to see the "Like" button on Facebook, and other similar buttons on other sites, when applicable. When you press or click on a link from a plug-in, a link to our site or our online store may appear in your profiles or pages on the social networks to which you subscribe. In some cases, if other people or "friends" share your interests or are allowed on your social networking pages or networks, they may also be able to access our Site or Online Store.

We may also communicate with you, your contacts or "friends" who have chosen to subscribe to our social networking pages or sites. By using our PLUGICIAL or plug-ins links, you consent to receive communications from OZIKO, for the same purposes described on the previous pages of this Policy, and you authorize us to use and communicate information about your tastes and interests described on your Facebook page or other social networks, for the promotion and commercial activities of OZIKO, and you acknowledge and understand that information or about your interests and tastes may be shared with your contacts or "friends", and other users of Facebook or other social networking websites or pages.

You can obtain more information about the social application plug-ins and the impact on your personal information by visiting the "Help", "social modules" or other sections on the subject for the social media concerned. Since these social media do not belong to OZIKO, OZIKO cannot be responsible for providing you with detailed opinions or extensive information on this subject.

Changes or other modification to our Policy

OZIKO reserves the right to change or otherwise modify this Policy from time to time, in whole or in part. In the event of any such change or modification, such will appear on our site or our online store.
