We at Marco Bicego USA, Inc. (“Marco Bicego” or “we”) respect your concerns about privacy. This policy describes the types of information we collect from you when you visit the United States section of www.marcobicego.com (our “Website”), how we use the information, with whom we share it and the choices available to users of our Site regarding our use of the information. We also describe our practices for protecting that information and how you can contact us about our privacy practices. If you do not agree with our policies and practices, your choice is not to use our Website. By accessing or using this Website, you agree to this Privacy Policy. This policy may change from time to time (see Changes to our Privacy Policy). Your continued use of this Website after we make changes is deemed to be acceptance of those changes, so please check the policy periodically for updates.

We collect several types of information from and about users of our Website, including information by which you may be personally identified, such as name, postal address, e-mail address, and telephone numbers; and about your Internet connection, the equipment you use to access our Website and usage details. We collect this information directly from you when you provide it to us, or automatically as you navigate through the Website. Information collected automatically may include usage details, IP addresses and information collected through cookies and other tracking technologies. Information You Provide to Us. The information we collect on or through our Website may include:

• Contact information (such as name, postal address, telephone number and email address);

• Payment information (such as payment card details);

• Login credentials for the Site;

• Purchase and transaction information; and

• Other personal information found in content that users may provide.

Information We Collect through Automatic Data Collection Technologies. When you use our Site, we may collect certain information by automated means, using technologies such as cookies, web server logs, and web beacons. The information we collect in this manner includes IP address, unique device identifier, browser characteristics, device characteristics, operating system, language preferences, referring URLs, information on actions taken on our Website, and dates and times of Website visits. A cookie is a small file placed on the hard drive of your computer or other Internet-connected device to uniquely identify the visitor’s browser or to store information or settings in the browser. A Web beacon (also known as Internet tags, clear gifs, pixel tags and single-pixel gifs) links web pages to web servers and their cookies and may be used to transmit information collected through cookies back to a web server. The information we collect automatically may include personal information, or we may maintain it or associate it with personal information we collect in other ways or receive from third parties. It helps us to improve our Website and to deliver a better and more personalized service, including by enabling us to:

• Estimate our audience size and usage patterns.

• Store information about your preferences, allowing us to customize our Website according to your individual interests.

• Speed up your searches.

• Recognize you when you return to our Website

Through these automated collection methods, we obtain “clickstream data,” which is a log of the links and other content on which a visitor clicks while browsing a website and permits us, for example, to count users who have visited those pages or opened an e-mail and for other related website statistics (for example, recording the popularity of certain website content and verifying system and server integrity). We may use third-party analytics services on our websites and apps, such as those of Google Analytics. The analytics providers that administer these services use technologies such as cookies, web server logs and web beacons to help us analyze your use of our websites and apps. The information collected through these means (including IP address) may be disclosed to these analytics providers and other relevant third parties who use the information, for example, to evaluate use of the website or app. You may be able to opt out of customized ads by visiting the Ads Preferences Manager at http://www.google.com/ads/preferences/, and the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on at https://www.google.com/settings/ads/plugin. If you use our website without opting out, this means that you understand and agree to data collection for the purpose of providing you with remarketing ads. You may refuse to accept browser cookies by activating the appropriate setting on your browser. However, if you select this setting you may be unable to access certain parts of our Website. Unless you have adjusted your browser setting so that it will refuse cookies, our system will issue cookies when you direct your browser to our Website. The providers of third-party apps, widgets, tools, and plug-ins on our Website and apps, such as “Like it” or “share” buttons, also may use automated means to collect information. This information is collected directly by the providers of the features and is subject to the privacy policies or notices of these providers. To the extent permitted by applicable law, Marco Bicego is not responsible for these providers’ information practices.

This right of access includes information about:

• The categories of personal information we collected about you;

• The categories of sources for the personal information we collected about you;

• Our business or commercial purpose for collecting that personal information;

• The categories of third parties with whom we share that personal information;

You have the right, subject to certain exceptions defined in the CCPA and other applicable laws and regulations, to request that a company delete any of your personal information that it has collected from you and retained, subject to certain exceptions.

To exercise the access, data portability, and deletion rights described above, please submit a verifiable consumer request to us by either:
Emailing us at contact@marcobicego.com or
Calling us at 1.866.4BICEGO

The verifiable consumer request must:

Provide sufficient information that allows us to verify, to a reasonably high degree of certainty, that you are the person about whom we collected personal information.  This may include requesting that you provide us with at least two or more pieces of personal information to match against personal information about you that we may or may not maintain and which we have determined to be reliable for the purpose of verification.

Describe your request with sufficient detail that allows us to properly understand, evaluate, and respond to it.

We cannot respond to your request or provide you with personal information if we cannot verify your identity or authority to make the request and confirm that the personal information relates to you.

We will only use personal information provided in a verifiable consumer request to verify the requestor’s identity or authority to make the request.

You may only make a verifiable consumer request for access or data portability twice within a 12-month period.

You may also make a verifiable consumer request or do not sell request on behalf of your minor child.

• Deny you services;

• Charge you different prices or rates for services, including through granting discounts or other benefits, or imposing penalties;

• Provide you a different level or quality of services; or

• Suggest that you may receive a different price or rate for services or a different level or quality of services.
