DO WE USE COOKIES?
Yes, we use cookies to help us remember and process the items in your shopping cart, keep track of advertisements and compile aggregate data about site traffic and site interaction so that we can offer better site experiences and tools in the future. We do not collect any personal data.

Digital Padesky Store does not track or collect personally identifying information in any way and we do not allow any third party to track and collect in any way, any personally identifying information.

However, like millions of other website owners, Digital Padesky Store uses Google Analytics to help us analyze and better understand who uses our site and what content is of interest. This analysis enables us to better design the look and content of our site.

Google Analytics does record, anonymously, such things as: what search terms people use to find us, what websites people come from to get here, how long visitors stay on the site, what kind of computers are being used (windows, apple, android), what parts of the world our visitors are from. Google will not associate your IP address with any other data held by Google. Neither we nor Google will link, or seek to link, an IP address with the identity of a computer user.

We make use of YouTube to deliver video content. YouTube may send its own cookies to monitor traffic to its site. You may want to check YouTube’s site for more information about these cookies and how to manage them. Neither we nor Google/YouTube will link, or seek to link, an IP address with the identity of a computer user.

COOKIES – ENABLE / DISABLE
Cookies are small files that a site or its service provider transfers to your computer’s hard drive through your Web browser (if you allow) that enables the sites or service providers systems to recognize your browser and capture and remember certain information.

Generally, cookies make your browsing experience better. However, you may prefer to disable cookies on this site and on others. The most effective way to disable cookies is in your browser.

LOG FILES
Like many other Web sites, Digital Padesky Store makes use of log files. The information inside the log files includes internet protocol (IP) addresses, type of browser, Internet Service Provider (ISP), date/time stamp, referring/exit pages, and number of clicks to analyze trends, administer the site, track user’s movement around the site, and gather demographic information. IP addresses, and other such information are not linked to any information that is personally identifiable.

Here’s an example of what log files provide for us: even though we can determine that we had visitors from 136 countries, 68% use Windows Internet Explorer, 10% use Mac computers, 90% support Java, and that over 65 languages are represented, we know absolutely nothing about the personal identity of these visitors.

So, why do we use log files? This type of technical information helps us to make changes to our site to increase accessibility to the largest number of visitors.

DO WE DISCLOSE any INFORMATION to OUTSIDE PARTIES?
We do not sell, trade, or otherwise transfer to outside parties your personally identifiable information. We may release your information when we believe release is appropriate to comply with the law, enforce our site policies, or protect ours or others rights, property, or safety.

We therefore have no responsibility or liability for the content and activities of these linked sites.
