1. What Personal Information we collect

“Personal Information” is information that may identify an individual such as a first and last name, home or other physical address, an email address, payment information, or a phone number or other contact information.

  • Contact information including mailing address, telephone number, and email address for the purchaser of a gift,
  • Mailing address for the gift recipient,

  • Demographic information such as postcode, preferences and interests,
  • Other information such as your communications with us, customer surveys, offers you claim, and/or other information that you choose to provide to us

The website allows you to purchase gifts and have them delivered to recipients you specify. When you provide us with the personal information of a person you wish to deliver a gift to, you must have that person’s consent, or another ability under the applicable law to do so.

 

2. What we do with the information we collect

We use the information we collect to allow you to purchase and send our products, to understand your needs and provide you with a better service, and in particular for the following reasons:

  • To allow you to create and manage an account on our website.
  • To allow you to place orders.
  • To deliver your orders to the recipients you specify.
  • For our internal record keeping.

  • To contact you for market research purposes. We may contact you by email, phone, or mail.

We may also anonymize, aggregate or otherwise strip any personal information or other information we collect of all personally identifying characteristics and may use or share that aggregated, anonymized data with third parties for any purpose we deem appropriate.

 

3. When we Disclose Personal Information

We share your personal information with third parties that help us use your personal information for the purposes described in this Privacy Policy. We may also share personal information with service providers that assist us with the activities described in this Privacy Policy, such as delivery companies, payment processors, and companies that help us run our website.

We may match the Personal Information we hold with the information of third parties such as a website or social media platform, including Facebook, Instagram, Pinterest, and Twitter, to better serve you with advertising we think may be of interest to you, or to prevent you from seeing our advertisements too often (“Custom Audiences”). We may also share Personal Information to serve advertising to persons we or our suppliers think may be similar to you (“Look Alike Modeling”). To opt-out of these practices, you may alter your settings on the social media platforms you use. If you withdraw your consent for us to send you email, your email address will no longer be used for custom audiences.

We reserve the right to transfer any personal information we have in the event of bankruptcy, or if we or any part of our business merges with or acquires, or is acquired by, a third party, or if any such transaction is proposed.

We may also disclose personal information to third parties if we have reason to believe that disclosing such information is necessary to: (i) conduct investigations of possible breaches of law; (ii) identify, contact, or bring legal action against someone who may be violating an agreement they have with us; or (iii) to protect our rights, safety or property.

Finally, we may also share your personal information to comply with applicable laws and regulations, to respond to a subpoena, search warrant or other lawful request for information we receive, or to otherwise protect our rights.

We also use cookies to help us compile aggregate data about site traffic and site interaction so that we can offer better site experiences and tools in the future.

We use cookies to identify which pages on our site are being used. This helps us analyze data about web page traffic and improve our website in order to better tailor it to customer needs. We use this information for statistical analysis purposes.

We advertise our products and/or services on third party websites based on your visit to our websites. For example, if you visit our website, you may see advertisements for our products and/or services on other third party sites, or on other portions of our own website.

Google Analytics and the Facebook Pixel are used on our website. Please visit these third-party sites to review their privacy policies and manage their cookies, and for information on how to opt-out of some of these practices:

  1. Google Analytics is a web analytics service that provides statistics and basic analytical tools for search engine optimization and marketing purposes. We use Google Analytics on our website to analyze how users use the website, and to provide advertisements to you on other websites. Google Analytics may collect information such as user location as inferred from IP address, the amount of time a visitor spends on our website, which pages are more frequently accessed, how the website is accessed (either directly, a search engine, or from a link), what sort of software is used (e.g. operating system, browser type, etc.), as well as demographics.

5. Security

In order to help prevent unauthorized access or disclosure of personal information, we have put in place physical, electronic and managerial procedures to help safeguard and secure the personal information we collect.

Personal information may be accessed by persons within our organization, or our third-party service providers, who require such access to carry out the purposes described in this Privacy Policy, or otherwise permitted or required by applicable law. Personal information we collect is managed from our offices in the Toronto Region.

Even though we have taken steps to help protect the personal information in our control, you should know that we cannot fully eliminate security risks associated with personal information. No security measures can provide absolute protection. We cannot ensure or warrant the security of any information you provide to us.

 

6. We may Transfer Personal Information to Other Countries

Personal information that we collect may be stored and processed in Canada or any other country in which we or our service providers maintain facilities, including in the United States. Personal information processed and stored in another country may be subject to disclosure or access requests by the governments, courts or law enforcement or regulatory agencies in that country according to its laws.

By using our site or by providing us with personal information, you consent to any such transfer of information outside of your country.

 

7. Links to other websites

Our website may contain links to other websites that may interest you. However, once you have used these links to leave our site, you should note that we do not have any control over that other website. Therefore, we cannot be responsible for the protection and privacy of any information which you provide whilst visiting such sites and such sites are not governed by this privacy statement. You should exercise caution and look at the privacy statement applicable to the website in question.

For example, our website provides links to certain social media platforms. When you click on the social media links and access such social media platform (i.e. Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn), you will be redirected to that site, and your data may be collected by the respective social media company. As a website provider, we have no direct knowledge of the content of the data transmitted or how it will be used by such social media platforms. Again, Baskits has no control over such social media company websites or resources and you acknowledge and agree that Baskits is not responsible for the content or information contained therein.
