1. Collection Of Information
We collect information from you directly, automatically when you visit the Sites, and sometimes from third parties. Some of this information may be considered “Personal Information” or “Personal Data,” some of which may be considered “sensitive,” under various applicable laws. We consider information that identifies you as a specific, identified individual to be “Personal Information” (such as your name, phone number, email address), and we treat additional information, including IP addresses and cookie identifiers, as “Personal Information” where required by applicable law. If we combine information that we consider to be non-personal with Personal Information, we will treat the combined information as Personal Information under this Privacy Policy. Note that we may de-identify or pseudonymize Personal Information so that it is non-personal, such as by aggregating it or converting it to a code, sometimes using a function commonly known as a “hash.” We maintain and use de-identified data without attempting to re-identify it, except where permitted by applicable law, such as to determine whether our de-identification processes satisfy legal requirements. We will treat de-identified or pseudonymized information as non-personal to the fullest extent allowed by applicable law.

In some cases, we may also collect information you provide about others, such as when you purchase a gift card for someone and request that we deliver it electronically, create and share a “wish list” or decide to purchase and ship products to someone. We will use this information to fulfill your requests and may also use that information to send marketing communications to your contact, unless he or she has previously opted out of marketing communications from Rhode.
