WHAT PERSONAL DATA DO WE COLLECT?

Data we collect when you visit our website

When you access our website, we automatically collect and store some of your data in our server logs and in cookies, which are small text files that a web server stores in browser software. A browser sends cookies to a server when the browser makes a connection to the server.

This data does not allow us to directly identify you, but it does record data related to your browsing history on our website. This includes the pages you accessed; the date and time of your request and referral URL; the date and time at which you accessed them; your search queries within the site; and information about the device you used such as its hardware model, operation system version, unique device identifier, Internet protocol address, hardware settings, browser type, and browser language.

You are not required to provide your data if you only want to visit our website. You may refuse to accept cookies by configuring your web browser accordingly (for more information, refer to the ‘help’ section of your web browser). That said, refusing cookies is likely to disrupt your navigation on our website, and may prevent you from accessing certain pages or services.

Service-related Announcements

We will send you strictly service-related announcements on rare occasions when it is necessary to do so. For instance, if our service is temporarily suspended for maintenance, we may send you an email. Generally, you may not opt out of these communications, particularly as they are not promotional in nature. If you do not wish to receive them, you have the option to deactivate your account.

Newsletters

If you wish to subscribe to our email newsletter(s), we will use your name and email address to send the emails to you. Out of respect for your privacy, we provide you with an option to unsubscribe. Please see the Opt-Out section below.

Opt-Out

We provide you with the opportunity to opt out of having your personal information used for certain purposes, when we ask for this information. For example, if you purchase a product/service but do not wish to receive any additional promotional emails from us, you may opt out at any time by following the unsubscribe link located at the bottom of each email communication.

If you no longer wish to receive our newsletter and promotional communications, you may opt out of receiving them by following the instructions included in each newsletter.

Opt In

By accepting these terms and conditions, you (i) allow us to share your data strictly with companies within Clearly and (ii) give your express, specific and informed consent to receive emails of promotional materials concerning optical products and glasses from these companies. Each email sent to you by Clearly and/or other companies within our group will include an 'unsubscribe' link.

We follow generally accepted industry standards to protect the personal information submitted to us, both during transmission and once we receive it. No method of transmission over the Internet, or method of electronic storage, is 100% secure. Therefore, while we strive to use commercially acceptable means to protect your personal information, we cannot guarantee its absolute security.

Removing Display/Advertisements from Your Device

Option A

Go to the NAI website. Their site will scan your computer/device for any third-party display or advertisements. A list of any third-party ads will then be populated and from there you can select the checkboxes next to the ads that you would like to remove. This ensures that advertisements will not come back to your computer/device as it is not registered to receive them. Note, the NAI website is not associated with SWFSOE

Option B

Manually access the cache and cookies of your browser and clear them. You will need to clear all to remove all third-party display advertisements.

 

 

CHANGES TO THIS PRIVACY NOTICE

We regularly review our compliance with our Privacy Policy and apply updates to make it compliant with new laws and regulations regarding data protection. But, even if this Privacy Policy may change from time to time, we will not reduce your rights under this Privacy Policy without your explicit consent.
