Policy on Privacy of Customer Personal Information

Effective Date: April 26, 2023

Clek has created this privacy policy in order to demonstrate our firm commitment to preserving your privacy as it relates to the collection, use and disclosure of personal information on www.clekinc.com, and in any other dealings we may have with you, for example, via email, phone, or a voluntary questionnaire.

Personal information is information that is personally identifiable about you. Personal information may include your first and last name, home or other physical address which includes the name of a street and the name of a city or town, age, income, date of birth, ethnic origin, credit card information, email address, telephone number, any other identifier that allows a specific person to be contacted either physically or online, or any other information collected from the person that’s maintained by the operator in combination with an identifier in a form that makes the information personally identifiable, as the case may be. Visitors to this website are not requested to reveal any personal information merely by browsing. However, if you use certain features of our site such as signing up for a newsletter or purchasing a product, you may need to provide personal information to us.

Orders, Registrations and Communications

Our website has registration and order forms allowing users to give us contact information, to order products, and to subscribe to our newsletter. Personal information from these forms are used to send users information about our company and its products (provided they have indicated they would like to receive such material) and to allow us to process orders. Users may opt-out of receiving future emails by using the opt-out feature in the email message, and may change or update personal information in our records by contacting our Customer Service who can help direct the call to the appropriate department within Clek at 1.866.656.2462.

We may also collect personal information when we communicate with you by email or phone to address your order, questions, requests, or if you agree to participate in a voluntary Clek questionnaire.

Information Sharing

We may share your personal information with employees, affiliates, vendors, partners, marketing providers, and third parties (such as service providers) to fulfill our everyday business purposes. For instance, our sales and customer service providers may access your personal information in order to assist in processing your orders and requests. For example, we use Shopify to power our online store. You can learn more about how Shopify uses your personal information here.

Website Tracking Privacy Principles

In some cases, we collect information about you that is not personal information. Examples of such information include the type of Internet browser you are using, the type of computer operating system you are using and the domain name of the website and/or Internet Service Provider through which you are linked to this site. Such visitor data may be used to improve the content of this website and to help us determine which features and services are most important to its visitors. This is done through the use of standard technology called cookies.

Do Not Track

Some browsers support a “Do Not Track” (or, DNT) feature, a privacy preference that users can set in certain web browsers, which is intended to be a signal to websites and services that you do not wish to be tracked across different websites or online services you visit. Our website does not currently recognize or respond to DNT signals, so DNT settings do not change the way the website operates.

Please note that we cannot control how third party websites or online services you visit through our website respond to Do Not Track signals. Check the privacy policies of those third parties for information on their privacy practices.

Cookies

We use various technologies to collect and store information when you use our services, and this may include sending one or more cookies or device identifiers. We also use these tracking technologies when you interact with the services we offer to our partners, such as advertising services or Clek features that may appear on other sites and in any other manner that we deem necessary for our business purposes, such as:

  • Site operations: Enabling features that are necessary for providing you the services on our site, such as identifying you as being signed in, tracking content views, remembering your preferences, and the number of times you have been shown an advertisement.
  • Analytics: Allowing us to understand how our Services are being used, track site performance, and make improvements.
  • Personalized advertising: Delivering tailored advertising based on your preferences or interests across services and devices, and measuring the effectiveness of advertisements.

Opt-Out

You can learn more about ad-serving companies and the options available to limit their collection and use of your information by visiting the websites for the Network Advertising Initiative, the Digital Advertising Alliance, and the European Interactive Digital Advertising Initiative. Similarly, you can learn about your options to opt out of mobile app tracking by certain advertising networks through your device settings and by resetting the advertiser ID on your Apple or Android device.

Certain websites you visit may provide options regarding advertisements you receive.  If you wish to minimize the amount of targeted advertising you receive, you can opt out of certain network advertising programs.  For more information or to opt out of certain online behavioral advertising, please click here.
