We may notify you about new services or special promotional programs, and send you offers or information. We may contact you if we have questions about your order or to notify you of the status of an order and request feedback on or participate in market research. We may also use your e-mail address to identify you on our internal systems. We will also use personal information for internal accounting and regulatory purposes.

With whom might LEDBee share personally identifiable information about me?

We will not disclose personally-identifiable information about you to others except as disclosed in this Privacy Statement or as specifically authorized by you at the time such information is collected.

We contract with other companies to fulfil your order and provide the specific products or services to you. For example, we use a credit card processing company to process applications, issue credit, verify, bill, and collect payments when you make a purchase with a credit card, and an outside shipping company to ship orders. These service providers are provided with only the information that they need to perform their functions and are not permitted to use or disclose your personally-identifiable information for other purposes without your authorisation.

If you shop at LEDBee.co.uk we may share your name and mailing address (but not your e-mail address or telephone number) for external direct mail campaigns conducted by companies or organisations which offer products or services we believe may be of interest to our customers.

To make online shopping more convenient for you, our web site may provide access to other companies' web sites or co-branded web sites that may be displayed in "frames" through our web site. If you request additional information from one of the companies featured on our web site, we may provide that company with your e-mail address so that your request can be fulfilled. We are not responsible for the content appearing on these companies' web sites or for the privacy practices of these companies. We encourage you to read the privacy policy on the other company’s web site if you have any concerns about how personally identifiable information may be collected or used. If you make a purchase or request a service from a featured company that you access through a frame on our web site, all information relating to that transaction will be available to us as well as the featured company.

We also have information about visitors to our web site, notably but not limited to those who have received a targeted promotional campaign or have reacted to any advertisement referring to our web site or products and/or services, processed by reputable third-party advertising companies, for the purpose of managing the content of our web site and of our advertising, learning which promotion or advertisement brings you to our web site, targeting our future campaigns, and upgrading visitor information used in reporting statistics. For these purposes, we make use of interactive technologies, such as (i) pixel tags (also called clear gifs or transparent gif files) that are integrated in e-mails to your attention or advertisings published on web sites but that are not apparent for your visual comfort, (ii) cookies and/our web beacons placed by us, one of the above mentioned third-party advertising companies or another vendor working with one of them.

You may elect not to receive any promotional e-mail when registering on our web site for the first time or by changing your personal details at any time by calling customer services.

Personally identifiable Information may be transferred as an asset in connection with a merger or sale (including any transfers made as part of an insolvency or bankruptcy proceeding) involving all or part of our businesses.

Does LEDBee conduct special programs that use personally identifiable information?

We occasionally conduct surveys, contests, or other promotional programs that involve the collection of personally-identifiable information. Participation in these programs is completely voluntary, so that you have a choice whether to disclose the requested information without limiting your ability to place orders for products and services. Personally identifiable information requested may include contact information (such as name and shipping address), and demographic information (such as gender, postal code, or age). Contact information will be used to notify you of the outcome of such programs and to award prizes. Survey information may be used or disclosed for purposes of monitoring or improving the performance of our retail, catalogue, or web site operations.

We generally do not intend to collect information through our web site from minors. If we conduct a special online program that is open to minors, then minors will be permitted to participate only with the consent of a parent or guardian or will otherwise be given the opportunity to participate without the need to provide personally identifying information.

How can I limit the use and sharing of personally identifiable information about me?

If your contact information indicates that you are located in an EU country which requires prior consent for sending information which is strictly promotional in nature, and without prejudice to more stringent rules under any applicable law, we will not send you such strictly promotional information unless you have requested it. In all events, you may decline at any time and for free to receive promotional e-mail from us by contacting our customer services department, by emailing us at cs@LEDBee.co.uk.

How can I access or update personally identifiable information about myself?

It is important that our databases are accurate and up-to-date. To exercise your rights to access and make appropriate changes or deletions to personally identifiable information we have gathered about you, please access your account.

How is my personally identifiable information protected?

We have implemented numerous safeguards to protect reasonably and adequately personally-identifiable information.

Our databases are protected by physical, technical, and procedural measures that restrict information access to authorized persons in accordance with this Privacy Statement. Our information systems are maintained behind a software firewall to isolate them from access by other networks connected to the Internet. Only employees who need the information to perform a specific job are granted access to personally identifiable information. Our employees are kept up to date on our security and privacy practices.

When personally-identifiable information is collected through our web site, the transmission is encrypted using industry-standards and sensitive information such as credit card numbers or account information is encrypted with Secure Socket Layer ("SSL") technology for further protection.
