This Privacy Policy explains how DENAS Pain Relief Store collects, uses, discloses, stores, and protects personal information when you visit our website, create an account, place an order, subscribe to our communications, or otherwise interact with us.
By using our website, you acknowledge the practices described in this Privacy Policy. If you do not agree with this Privacy Policy, please do not use the website or provide personal information through it.
Information We Collect
We may collect information that you provide directly to us, including your name, billing address, shipping address, email address, telephone number, account information, order information, communication preferences, and information submitted through contact forms, reviews, surveys, or customer-service requests.
When you place an order, we may collect information about the products purchased, order value, shipping details, billing details, transaction status, payment method, and related customer-service communications.
We do not normally receive or store your complete payment-card number. Payment information is generally processed by Stripe or another authorized payment service provider.
We may automatically collect technical and usage information, including your IP address, browser type, device type, operating system, referring website, pages viewed, links clicked, approximate location, date and time of access, and information about how you interact with the website.
How We Use Personal Information
We may use personal information to process and fulfill orders, accept payments, arrange shipping, provide order confirmations, provide tracking information, communicate with you, respond to questions, and provide customer support.
We may use personal information to create and manage customer accounts, maintain business records, prevent fraud, detect security incidents, verify transactions, enforce our Terms & Conditions, and comply with legal obligations.
We may use website usage information to operate, maintain, troubleshoot, secure, analyze, and improve the website, products, services, customer experience, and marketing activities.
We may use your email address to send transactional messages, including order confirmations, shipping updates, account notices, security messages, service announcements, and responses to your inquiries.
Where permitted by law and where you have provided consent or another lawful basis exists, we may send newsletters, promotional messages, product information, surveys, and other marketing communications.
Joomla and Easy Store
Our website is built using Joomla and uses Easy Store to provide e-commerce functionality. These systems may process information necessary to create customer accounts, manage shopping carts, process orders, maintain product and inventory information, calculate order totals, and support customer service.
Information processed through Joomla or Easy Store may include account details, contact information, order details, login information, IP addresses, browser information, and other information submitted or generated while using the website.
We configure and manage these systems according to our business needs, but no website or online service can be guaranteed to be completely secure or free from vulnerabilities.
Google Analytics
We use Google Analytics to understand how visitors use our website, measure website performance, identify technical problems, evaluate marketing activity, and improve our products and services.
Google Analytics may collect information such as IP address, device information, browser type, approximate location, pages viewed, session duration, traffic source, and interactions with the website. Google states that website operators control the data collected through their Analytics properties and may enable privacy features such as IP anonymization. [web:47][web:52]
Depending on the configuration of our Google Analytics account, cookies or similar technologies may be used to collect usage information. You may be able to control analytics cookies through our cookie-consent tool, your browser settings, or available Google opt-out tools.
Google may process information on servers located outside your country. Your use of Google services may also be subject to Google’s own privacy policy and terms.
Cookies and Similar Technologies
Our website may use cookies, session technologies, pixels, tags, and similar technologies to keep the website functioning, remember preferences, maintain shopping carts, support account login, provide security, analyze traffic, and improve website performance.
Some cookies may be necessary for the website to operate. Other cookies may be used for analytics, personalization, advertising, or marketing purposes.
You may adjust your browser settings to block, delete, or limit cookies. Blocking necessary cookies may affect website functionality, account access, shopping-cart features, checkout, or other services.
Stripe Payments
We use Stripe to process payments and related payment transactions. When you submit payment information, it may be transmitted directly to Stripe or processed through Stripe’s systems.
Stripe may collect and process payment information, contact information, transaction details, device information, fraud-prevention data, and other information necessary to authorize payments, prevent fraud, provide payment services, comply with legal requirements, and manage disputes.
DPRS does not control Stripe’s independent privacy practices. Stripe’s processing of personal information is also governed by Stripe’s Privacy Policy and applicable terms. Stripe identifies the applicable Stripe entity and privacy responsibilities based on the services and jurisdiction involved. [web:44][web:49]
USPS Shipping
We use the United States Postal Service to ship orders. To fulfill an order, we may provide USPS with information such as your name, shipping address, postal code, package details, tracking information, and other information necessary to prepare, transport, track, and deliver your package.
USPS may process shipping information for delivery, tracking, customer service, address verification, security, fraud prevention, customs processing, and legal or regulatory purposes.
For international orders, shipping and customs information may be shared with postal authorities, customs authorities, government agencies, and delivery partners in the destination country.
Mailchimp Communications
We use Mailchimp to manage email newsletters, marketing communications, subscriber lists, subscription preferences, and email campaign performance.
If you subscribe to our mailing list, Mailchimp may process your name, email address, subscription preferences, IP address, signup source, email-delivery information, and interactions with our messages, such as opens or link clicks.
You may unsubscribe from marketing emails at any time by clicking the unsubscribe link included in the email or by contacting us directly. Unsubscribing from marketing messages will not necessarily stop transactional communications related to orders, accounts, security, or customer service.
Mailchimp may process information on servers located outside your country. Mailchimp’s processing is also subject to its own privacy policy and terms.
How We Share Personal Information
We may share personal information with service providers and business partners that help us operate the website, process payments, fulfill orders, provide shipping, send communications, analyze website usage, prevent fraud, provide hosting, maintain security, and provide customer support.
These service providers may include Joomla-related service providers, Easy Store service providers, Stripe, USPS, Mailchimp, Google Analytics, website-hosting providers, information-technology providers, email providers, fraud-prevention providers, professional advisers, and legal or accounting service providers.
We may disclose personal information when reasonably necessary to comply with a subpoena, court order, legal obligation, government request, law-enforcement request, regulatory requirement, or legal process.
We may disclose personal information to protect the rights, property, safety, security, and operations of DPRS, our customers, website visitors, service providers, or other persons.
If DPRS is involved in a merger, acquisition, financing, reorganization, sale of assets, bankruptcy, business transfer, or similar transaction, personal information may be transferred as part of that transaction, subject to applicable law.
We do not sell personal information for money. We may use third-party analytics, advertising, email, payment, and technology services that process information for their own services or on our behalf, depending on the service and applicable law.
International Data Transfers
DPRS and our service providers may collect, store, access, or process personal information in Canada, the United States, and other countries where our service providers operate.
Privacy and data-protection laws in those countries may differ from the laws in your country or region. Where required, we use appropriate contractual, technical, organizational, or other safeguards for international transfers.
Data Retention
We retain personal information only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes described in this Privacy Policy, including order fulfillment, customer service, accounting, tax reporting, fraud prevention, dispute resolution, legal compliance, security, and enforcement of agreements.
The retention period depends on the type of information, the purpose for which it was collected, legal requirements, operational needs, and whether the information is required to resolve a dispute or protect our legal rights.
Data Security
We use reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards designed to protect personal information from unauthorized access, loss, misuse, alteration, disclosure, or destruction.
Security measures may include access controls, passwords, software updates, secure payment processing, backups, monitoring, encryption where appropriate, and limiting access to personnel and service providers who need the information.
No method of transmission, storage, website, computer system, or electronic service is completely secure. We cannot guarantee the absolute security of personal information.
Your Privacy Choices
You may choose not to provide certain personal information. However, refusing to provide information required for an order, payment, shipping, account, or customer-service request may prevent us from completing that activity.
You may unsubscribe from marketing emails by using the unsubscribe link in the message or by contacting us at the address listed below.
You may be able to disable cookies through your browser or cookie-consent settings. Disabling cookies may limit certain website functions.
You may request access to, correction of, or deletion of personal information that we hold about you, subject to applicable legal exceptions and verification requirements.
You may also request information about how your personal information is collected, used, disclosed, or retained, where such rights are provided by applicable law.
Privacy Rights Requests
To submit a privacy request, please contact us using the information below. We may need to verify your identity before completing a request to protect personal information from unauthorized disclosure.
Depending on your location and applicable law, you may have rights to access, correct, update, delete, restrict, object to, or receive a copy of certain personal information. You may also have the right to withdraw consent where processing is based on consent.
Withdrawing consent does not affect the lawfulness of processing that occurred before consent was withdrawn. Some information may need to be retained to comply with legal, accounting, security, tax, fraud-prevention, or dispute-resolution obligations.
If you believe your privacy rights have been violated, you may have the right to contact the privacy regulator or data-protection authority in your jurisdiction.
Children’s Privacy
Our website is not intended for children under the age of 13, or any higher minimum age required by applicable law. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children without legally required parental or guardian consent.
If you believe that a child has provided personal information to us, please contact us so that we can investigate and take appropriate action.
Third-Party Websites
Our website may contain links to websites, services, applications, social-media platforms, payment providers, shipping services, or other third parties.
DPRS is not responsible for the privacy practices, security, content, or policies of third-party websites or services. You should review the privacy policy of each third-party service before providing personal information.
