Privacy Policy

Thank you for visiting. Contained below is the CigarsDaily.com Privacy Policy (hereafter referred to as the “Policy”). This Policy applies to the use, by any and all persons, of our online services.

CigarsDaily.com Privacy Policy

CigarsDaily.com (hereafter referred to as “CD,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) is an online service that is accessible from nearly any phone, tablet, or computer. The terms of this Policy apply to any use of our online services from any device. This Policy lays out how we collect, share, use, retain, and protect information about you. We will also explain the options you have regarding what information we obtain and how you may contact us regarding your personal information.

This Policy applies to our website and online services only. Purchases made in person at our retail location are processed separately and are not governed by this Policy.

What Info We Collect

Information About You, Given by You

CD or its service providers may collect information that you provide directly through the use of the website, online services, and/or third-party services. As an example, CD collects information when you sign up for email notifications, create a user account, place an order, participate in a promotion, contact us, or otherwise interact with CD.

Personal information can include information that identifies, relates to, describes, or can reasonably be associated with you, such as your name, phone number, date of birth, billing address, shipping address, email address, account information, order history, payment-related information, customer service communications, age-verification information, and other information you choose to provide.

Information about your demographic, preferences, age, gender, recent purchases, and interactions with CD may also be considered personal information under certain privacy laws when it identifies, relates to, describes, or can reasonably be linked with you or your household.

CD also excludes “de-identified,” anonymized, or aggregated information from the details of this Policy where all personal indicators have been removed and the information cannot reasonably be used to identify you. This information may be used and shared at our discretion, except when prohibited by law.

Sensitive Personal Information and Age Verification

Because federal and state law require us to verify that our customers are at least twenty-one (21) years of age, CD collects your date of birth and uses a third-party age-verification service to confirm your age and eligibility to purchase. In some cases, this verification process may involve the collection of additional identifying information, such as portions of a government-issued identification number, conducted by our age-verification provider under its own privacy policy.

Some of this information may be considered “sensitive personal information” under certain state privacy laws. CD collects and uses sensitive personal information only for the purposes of verifying age and eligibility, processing transactions, preventing fraud, ensuring security, and complying with legal obligations, and does not use or disclose sensitive personal information for purposes that would trigger a right to limit under applicable law. We do not use sensitive personal information to infer characteristics about you.

Information Automatically Collected

CD and its third-party providers may automatically collect certain information when you access online services. This information can include IP address, type of browser, device type, operating system, referring/exit pages, date/time stamps, approximate location, and information on how you use the services. Depending on applicable law and how this information is used or combined with other information, some automatically collected information may be considered personal information.

The methods that may be used on CD to collect usage information include:

Log Information

Log information is data about your use of CD, such as IP address, browser type, Internet service provider, referring/exit pages, operating system, date/time stamps, and related data, and may be stored in log files.

Information Collected by Cookies and Other Tracking Technologies

Cookies, web beacons (also known as “tracking pixels”), embedded scripts, location-identifying technologies, fingerprinting, device recognition technologies, in-app tracking methods, and other tracking technologies now and hereafter developed (“Tracking Technologies”) may be used to collect information about interactions with CD or emails, including information about your browsing and purchasing behavior. Here is more detail of types of Tracking Technologies:

Cookies

A cookie is a small text file that is stored on a user’s device, which may be session ID cookies or tracking cookies. Session cookies make it easier for you to navigate CD and expire when you close your browser. Tracking cookies remain longer and help in understanding how you use CD, and enhance your user experience. Cookies may remain on your hard drive for an extended period of time.

If you use your browser’s method of blocking or removing cookies, some but not all types of cookies may be deleted and/or blocked, and as a result some features and functionalities of CD may not work. In addition to browser cookies, similar technologies such as HTML5 local storage may store data on your device outside of the browser’s cookie controls, and browser settings may not control them.

Web Beacons (“Tracking Pixels”)

Web beacons are small graphic images, also known as “Internet tags” or “clear gifs,” embedded in web pages and email messages. Web beacons may be used, without limitation, to count the number of visitors to CD, to monitor how users navigate CD, to count content views, and to measure the effectiveness of email and advertising campaigns. CD currently uses tracking pixels and similar technologies provided by third parties, including Meta (Facebook/Instagram), Google, and our email service provider, to measure and improve our marketing.

Embedded Scripts

An embedded script is programming code designed to collect information about your interactions with CD. It is temporarily downloaded onto your computer from CD’s web server, or from a third party with which CD works, and is active only while you are connected to the Service, and deleted or deactivated thereafter.

Location-Identifying Technologies

GPS, geo-filtering, IP-based location, and other location-aware technologies may locate, or make assumptions about your location, for purposes such as verifying your location, delivering or restricting content based on your location, fraud prevention, and compliance with legal requirements. If you have enabled GPS or use other location-based features on CD, your device location may be tracked.

Fingerprinting

Collection and analysis of information from your device, such as, without limitation, your operating system, plug-ins, system fonts, and other data, may be used for purposes of identification, fraud prevention, security, analytics, and/or tracking.

Device Recognition Technologies

Technologies, including application of statistical probability to data sets, as well as linking a common unique identifier to different device use, which attempt to recognize or make assumptions about users and devices, such as whether a user of multiple devices is the same user or household (“Cross-device Data”).

Some information about your use of CD and certain Third-Party Services may be collected using Tracking Technologies across time and services, and used by CD and third parties for purposes such as to associate different devices you use, deliver relevant ads and/or other content to you on CD and certain Third-Party Services, improve our services, prevent fraud, and analyze website performance.

Info Obtained Outside of Your Usage

CD may obtain information about you from Third-Party Services, including but not limited to analytics providers, advertising partners, payment processors, fraud-prevention services, age-verification services, shipping providers, customer service tools, email or text message providers, and other service providers. CD is not responsible for the privacy practices of third parties that collect information directly from you under their own privacy policies.

How We Use Information About You

CD may use information about you for any purpose that does not violate this Policy or that is not prohibited by law. These uses include, but are not limited to:

  • Offering specific services based on your preferences;
  • Personalizing your experience while using CD;
  • Providing services, order updates, account notices, and other communications;
  • Sending promotional communications, unless you have opted out or unsubscribed where required;
  • Processing your registration;
  • Processing purchases, payments, returns, customer service requests, and order fulfillment;
  • Verifying your age and eligibility to use CD and to fulfill federal, state, and local legal requirements regarding your purchases;
  • Administering our rewards and loyalty program;
  • Operating the CD affiliate marketing program;
  • Improving, maintaining, and securing CD and our services;
  • Detecting, investigating, and preventing fraud, unauthorized transactions, security incidents, violations of our terms, or illegal activity;
  • Complying with tax, accounting, recordkeeping, regulatory, and legal obligations, including but not limited to Arizona State Tobacco Tax Filing, warrants, court orders, subpoenas, regulatory inquiries, or other legal processes;
  • Enforcing our rights, terms, policies, and agreements; and
  • Any other purpose disclosed to you at the time information is collected or with your consent.

Information We Share With Other Parties

CD may share non-personal, aggregated, anonymized, or de-identified information with third parties for any reason, except where prohibited by law.

Personal information is protected and not shared except as described in this Policy, as disclosed at the time information is collected, with your consent, or as otherwise permitted or required by law.

Personal information may be shared for, but is not limited to, the following reasons:

  • With service providers, vendors, contractors, and agents who perform services on behalf of CD, including website hosting, payment processing, order fulfillment, shipping, email and text message communications, marketing services, analytics, advertising, customer support, fraud prevention, age verification, tax, accounting, and legal services;
  • To provide services, fulfill orders, process payments, send communications, and operate CD;
  • To target, measure, and improve marketing through third-party services, subject to applicable law (please see “Do Not Sell or Share My Personal Information” below regarding disclosures to advertising partners that may be considered a “sale” or “sharing” under certain state privacy laws);
  • Where you have given us permission to share your information;
  • With agents of CD to use in developing, maintaining, securing, and improving services within CD;
  • To comply with legal processes, regulatory requirements, court orders, subpoenas, warrants, tax obligations, or other legal obligations;
  • If your use has violated CD’s terms of use, presents a legal liability, or may involve fraud, abuse, security threats, or illegal activity;
  • To protect the rights, property, and safety of CD, our customers, our service providers, and others; and
  • As part of a merger, sale, joint venture, assignment, transfer, reorganization, financing, bankruptcy, or any type of acquisition by another party.

Furthermore, CD reserves the right to share information during the process of merger, sale, joint venture, or any type of acquisition by another party. During such an event, the other party may receive information subject to applicable confidentiality, contractual, and legal obligations.

Do Not Sell or Share My Personal Information

CD does not sell personal information in exchange for money. However, like many online retailers, we use advertising and analytics technologies (such as the Meta pixel and Google services) that involve disclosing certain information — such as identifiers, device information, and browsing activity — to advertising partners for cross-context behavioral advertising. Under certain state privacy laws, including the California Consumer Privacy Act as amended, these disclosures may be considered a “sale” or “sharing” of personal information.

You have the right to opt out of the sale or sharing of your personal information. You may exercise this right by:

  • Clicking the “Do Not Sell or Share My Personal Information” link in the footer of our website; or
  • Contacting us at hello@cigarsdaily.com with “Do Not Sell or Share Request” in the subject line.

We also recognize opt-out preference signals such as the Global Privacy Control (GPC). If your browser or extension transmits a GPC signal, we will treat it as a valid request to opt out of the sale or sharing of personal information associated with your browser for that visit, and for your account if you are logged in, to the extent required by applicable law.

CD does not knowingly sell or share the personal information of consumers under the age of twenty-one (21), and does not sell or share sensitive personal information.

If you opt out, you may still see advertisements from CD, but they will not be targeted based on personal information shared by us with advertising partners after your opt-out takes effect.

Notice of Financial Incentive: Rewards Program

CD offers a points-based rewards program for online purchases. Customers who participate earn points on qualifying purchases that may be redeemed for discounts on future orders. Because participation involves the collection of personal information — such as your name, email address, account information, and purchase history — the program may be considered a “financial incentive” under certain state privacy laws.

Participation in the rewards program is voluntary, and you may join or withdraw at any time by contacting us at hello@cigarsdaily.com. The value of the personal information collected in connection with the program is reasonably related to the value of the discounts and benefits provided, based on the expenses we incur in offering the program and the value of repeat business it generates. If you delete your account or request deletion of your personal information, you may lose accrued points and program benefits.

Contests, Giveaways, and Promotions

CD may offer opportunities to receive services, products, or benefits as the result of participating in contests, giveaways, and/or promotions. These opportunities may include Third Parties. For that reason, personal information may be shared as the result of being involved in such opportunities. Additional terms may apply to specific contests, giveaways, or promotions.

Information You Share Publicly or to Others

CD may permit you to post or submit User Generated Content (“UGC”) including, without limitation, written content, user profiles, audio or visual recordings, computer graphics, pictures, data, reviews, comments, or other content, including Personal Information. If you choose to submit UGC to any public area of CD, your UGC will be considered “public” and will be accessible by anyone, including CD.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, unless otherwise explicitly agreed by us, Personal Information included in UGC is not subject to CD’s usage or sharing limitations, or other obligations, regarding Company-Collected PI or other Personal Information under this Privacy Policy or otherwise, and may be used and shared by CD and third parties to the fullest extent not prohibited by applicable law.

CD encourages you to exercise caution when making decisions about what you disclose in such public areas. Although it is required to be twenty-one (21) years of age or older to use CD, California minors who have improperly accessed CD should know we reserve the right to contest or remove UGC they have posted on any of CD’s spaces, including but not limited to Instagram, Facebook, or other social media platforms.

Additionally, CD may offer you the option to send a communication to a friend. If so, CD relies on you to only send to people who are at least twenty-one (21) years of age and who have given you permission to do so. The friend’s Personal Information you provide, such as name or email address, will be used to facilitate the communication, but not used by CD for any other marketing purpose unless CD obtains consent from that person. Your contact information and message may be included in the communication.

Children’s Privacy

CD’s products and services are intended only for adults twenty-one (21) years of age and older. CD is not directed at children, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under the age of twenty-one (21), including children under the age of thirteen (13) as defined by the Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA). If we learn that we have collected personal information from a person under twenty-one (21), we will delete that information and terminate any associated account as quickly as reasonably possible. If you believe a minor has provided personal information to CD, please contact us at hello@cigarsdaily.com.

Third-Party Content, Third-Party Services, Social Features, Advertising, and Analytics

CD may include hyperlinks to, or include on or in connection with CD, websites, locations, platforms, applications, plug-ins, or services operated by third parties (“Third-Party Service(s)”). These Third-Party Services may use their own cookies, web beacons, and other Tracking Technologies to independently collect information about you and may solicit Personal Information from you.

Certain functionalities on CD permit interactions that you initiate between CD and certain Third-Party Services, such as third-party social networks (“Social Features”). Examples of Social Features include enabling you to send content such as contacts and photos between the Service and a Third-Party Service; “liking” or “sharing” CD’s content; logging in to CD using your Third-Party Service account; and otherwise connecting CD to a Third-Party Service.

If you use Social Features, and potentially other Third-Party Services, information you post or provide access to may be publicly displayed on CD or by the Third-Party Service that you use. Similarly, if you post information on a Third-Party Service that references CD, such as by using a hashtag associated with CD or other Company Affiliates in a tweet or status update, your post may be used on or in connection with CD or otherwise by CD and CD Affiliates. Also, both CD and the Third Party may have access to certain information about you and your use of CD and any Third-Party Service.

CD may engage and work with Service Providers and other third parties to serve advertisements on CD and/or on Third-Party Services. Some of these ads may be tailored to your interest based on your browsing of CD and elsewhere on the internet, sometimes referred to as “interest-based advertising” and “online behavioral advertising” (“Interest-based Advertising”), which may include sending you an ad on a Third-Party Service after you have left CD, also known as “retargeting.” Please see the “Do Not Sell or Share My Personal Information” section above for information about your right to opt out of these practices.

CD may use Google Analytics or other Service Providers for analytics services. These analytics services may use cookies and other Tracking Technologies to help CD analyze Service users and how they use CD. Information generated by these services, such as your IP address and other Usage Information, may be transmitted to and stored by these Service Providers on servers in the U.S. or elsewhere, and these Service Providers may use this information for purposes such as evaluating your use of CD, compiling statistic reports on CD’s activity, and providing other services relating to CD activity and other internet usage.

Except to the extent we combine information we receive from Service Providers, Third-Party Services, or other third parties with Company-Collected PI, in which case CD will treat the combined information as Company-Collected PI under this Privacy Policy, data obtained by CD from a Third Party, even in association with CD, is not subject to CD’s limitations regarding Company-Collected PI under this Privacy Policy. However, such data remains subject to any restrictions imposed on CD by the Third Party, if any. Otherwise, the information collected, stored, and shared by third parties remains subject to their privacy policies and practices, including whether they continue to share information with CD, the types of information shared, and your choices on what is visible to others on Third-Party Services.

CD is not responsible for and makes no representations regarding the policies or business practices of any third parties, including, without limitation, analytics Service Providers and Third-Party Services associated with CD, and encourages you to familiarize yourself with and consult their privacy policies and terms of use.

Text Message (SMS) Communications

CD may offer text message (SMS) communications, including order updates and, where you have provided consent, marketing and promotional messages. If you enroll in SMS communications:

  • Your consent to receive marketing text messages is not a condition of any purchase.
  • Message frequency may vary. Message and data rates may apply, and you are responsible for any charges from your wireless carrier.
  • You may opt out of marketing text messages at any time by replying STOP to any message. After opting out, you may receive a single confirmation message. For help, reply HELP or contact us at hello@cigarsdaily.com.
  • Opting out of marketing text messages will not affect transactional messages, such as order or shipping updates, or other communications you have separately requested.

Mobile phone numbers collected for SMS communications will not be shared with third parties for their own marketing purposes. Additional terms may apply to specific SMS programs and will be presented at the time of enrollment.

Data Retention

CD retains personal information for as long as reasonably necessary to fulfill the purposes described in this Policy, including to provide services, maintain your account, fulfill orders, provide customer service, comply with legal and regulatory obligations, maintain tax and accounting records, resolve disputes, prevent fraud, enforce agreements, verify age or eligibility where required, and protect CD and others.

Retention periods may vary depending on the type of information, the reason it was collected, applicable legal requirements, and legitimate business needs. When personal information is no longer reasonably necessary, CD may delete, anonymize, aggregate, de-identify, or securely retain the information in accordance with applicable law and our recordkeeping practices.

Data Security and Monitoring

CD takes reasonable measures to protect Company-Collected PI, excluding public UGC, from loss, theft, misuse, and unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, and destruction. Nevertheless, transmission via the internet and online digital storage are not completely secure, and CD cannot guarantee the security of your information collected through CD.

To help protect you and others, CD and its Service Providers may, but make no commitment to, monitor use of the Service, and may collect and use related information including Company-Collected PI and other Personal Information for all purposes not prohibited by applicable law or inconsistent with this Privacy Policy, including, without limitation, to identify fraudulent activities and transactions; prevent abuse of and investigate and/or seek prosecution for any potential threats to or misuse of CD; ensure compliance with this Privacy Policy; investigate violations of or enforce these agreements; and otherwise protect the rights and property of CD, Company Affiliates, third parties, and other users.

Monitoring may result in the collection, recording, and analysis of online activity or communications through our Service. If you do not consent to these conditions, you must discontinue your use of CD.

International Transfer

CD is based in the U.S. and the information CD and its Service Providers collect is governed by U.S. law. If you are accessing CD from outside of the U.S., or if we ship an order to you outside of the U.S., please be aware that information collected through CD may be transferred to, processed, stored, and used in the U.S. Data protection laws in the U.S. may be different from those of your country of residence. Your use of CD or provision of any information therefore constitutes your consent to the transfer to and from, processing, usage, sharing, and storage of your information, including Personal Information, in the U.S. as set forth in this Privacy Policy. If you do not consent to this transfer, please do not use CD or provide personal information to us.

Accessing, Changing, and Deleting Information

CD may provide web pages or other mechanisms allowing you to delete, correct, or update some of the Company-Collected PI, and potentially certain other information about you, such as account information. For instance, you can make changes to your account information by updating or modifying your online account information via the “My Account” link provided at the top of each page.

You may also contact CD to request access to, correction of, deletion of, or other action regarding personal information associated with you. To help us process your request, please include your name, email address, and any other information reasonably necessary for us to identify your records. CD may take reasonable steps to verify your identity and confirm that the request was submitted by you or by an authorized representative acting on your behalf.

Upon receiving and verifying a valid request, CD will make good faith efforts to make requested changes in CD’s then-active databases as soon as practicable, subject to applicable law and legitimate business needs. Where appropriate, CD may delete, anonymize, de-identify, or suppress personal information from active systems where the information is no longer needed.

It is not always possible to completely change, remove, or delete all of your information or public postings from CD’s databases, systems, or records. Residual, archived, cached, backup, legal, accounting, tax, compliance, security, fraud-prevention, payment, chargeback, age-verification, order fulfillment, dispute-resolution, and similar records may remain where retention is required or permitted by law or reasonably necessary for legitimate business purposes.

Further, we reserve the right to retain data: (a) as required or permitted by applicable law; (b) for so long as reasonably necessary to fulfill the purposes for which the data is retained; (c) for tax, accounting, legal, regulatory, fraud prevention, chargeback, security, age-verification, order fulfillment, dispute resolution, and compliance purposes; and (d) as otherwise permitted by applicable law.

Deletion of personal information may affect your ability to access your account, order history, rewards, subscriptions, customer service history, or other features associated with CD.

Personal Data Deletion Requests

If you would like to request deletion of personal information associated with your account, orders, email address, marketing communications, or other interactions with CD, you may contact us through our contact form or at:

hello@cigarsdaily.com

Please include your name and email address so we can locate your records. We may request additional information if needed to verify your identity or clarify the scope of your request.

If we verify and process your deletion request, we will delete, anonymize, de-identify, or suppress personal information from our active systems where we are not required or permitted to retain it. This may include customer account information, marketing records, email subscription data, and other personal information no longer needed for business or legal purposes.

Please understand that a deletion request does not always mean every record can be fully erased. CD may retain limited information where necessary or permitted for legitimate business, legal, regulatory, tax, accounting, security, fraud prevention, chargeback, age-verification, order fulfillment, dispute resolution, or compliance purposes. Where possible, we will limit retained information to what is reasonably necessary for those purposes.

We may also retain information in backup or archival systems for a limited period of time until such data is deleted, overwritten, or retired in the normal course of business. If backup data is restored, we will take reasonable steps to reapply applicable deletion requests.

A request to unsubscribe from marketing communications is separate from a full personal data deletion request. If you are subscribed to marketing emails or text messages, you may unsubscribe at any time using the unsubscribe link or instructions included in those communications.

Choices: Tracking and Communications Options

Tracking Technologies Generally

Regular cookies may generally be disabled or removed by tools available as part of most commercial browsers, and in some instances blocked in the future by selecting certain settings. Browsers offer different functionalities and options, so you may need to set them separately. Browser tools may not be effective with regard to HTML5 local storage or certain other Tracking Technologies.

Please be aware that if you disable or remove these technologies, some parts of the Service may not work and that when you revisit CD your ability to limit browser-based Tracking Technologies is subject to your browser settings and limitations.

Analytics and Advertising Tracking Technologies

You may exercise choices regarding the use of cookies from Google Analytics by going to https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout or downloading the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on.

You may choose whether to receive some Interest-based Advertising by submitting opt-outs. Some of the advertisers and Service Providers that perform advertising-related services for us and third parties may participate in the Digital Advertising Alliance’s (“DAA”) Self-Regulatory Program for Online Behavioral Advertising. To learn more about how you can exercise certain choices regarding Interest-based Advertising, visit http://www.aboutads.info/choices/ and http://www.aboutads.info/appchoices for information on the DAA’s opt-out program for mobile apps.

Some of these companies may also be members of the Network Advertising Initiative (“NAI”). To learn more about the NAI and your opt-out options for their members, see http://www.networkadvertising.org/choices/.

You may also opt out of the sale or sharing of your personal information for cross-context behavioral advertising as described in the “Do Not Sell or Share My Personal Information” section above, including through the Global Privacy Control.

Please be aware that, even if you are able to opt out of certain kinds of Interest-based Advertising, you may continue to receive other types of ads. Opting out only means that those selected members should no longer deliver certain Interest-based Advertising to you, but does not mean you will no longer receive any targeted content and/or ads, such as from other ad networks. Also, if your browsers are configured to reject cookies when you visit these opt-out webpages, or you subsequently erase your cookies, use a different device or web browser, or use a non-browser-based method of access, your NAI / DAA browser-based opt-out may not, or may no longer, be effective.

CD supports the ad industry’s Self-Regulatory Principles for Online Behavioral Advertising and expects that ad networks CD directly engages to serve you Interest-based Advertising will do so as well, though CD cannot guarantee their compliance. CD is not responsible for effectiveness of, or compliance with, any third parties’ opt-out options or programs or the accuracy of their statements regarding their programs.

Communications

You can opt out of receiving certain promotional communications from CD at any time for promotional emails by following the instructions provided in emails to click on the unsubscribe link, and for text messages by replying STOP as described in the “Text Message (SMS) Communications” section above. Please note that your opt-out is limited to the email address or phone number used and will not affect subsequent subscriptions. If you opt out of only certain communications, other subscription communications may continue.

Even if you opt out of receiving promotional communications, CD may, subject to applicable law, continue to send you non-promotional communications, such as those about your account, transactions, servicing, order fulfillment, legal notices, security, or CD’s ongoing business relations.

Your Privacy Rights

Depending on where you live and which privacy laws apply, you may have certain rights regarding your personal information. A number of U.S. states — including, without limitation, California, Colorado, Connecticut, Texas, Oregon, Virginia, and others — have enacted comprehensive privacy laws that may apply to some of our customers. These rights may include the right to:

  • Request confirmation of whether we process your personal information and access to that information;
  • Request correction of inaccurate personal information;
  • Request deletion of personal information;
  • Request a portable copy of certain personal information;
  • Opt out of the sale or sharing of personal information, targeted advertising, and certain profiling; and
  • Limit the use of sensitive personal information, where applicable.

To submit a privacy request, you may contact us through our contact form or at:

hello@cigarsdaily.com

Please include sufficient information for us to verify your identity and locate your records, and indicate the state in which you reside. You may also designate an authorized agent to submit a request on your behalf; we may require proof of the agent’s authority and verification of your identity.

We will respond to verified requests within the time period required by applicable law (generally forty-five (45) days, with extension where permitted). We may deny or limit a request where permitted by law, including where we are unable to verify your identity, where the request conflicts with legal obligations, or where retention is permitted or required for legitimate business, legal, tax, accounting, regulatory, security, fraud-prevention, age-verification, order fulfillment, dispute-resolution, or compliance purposes.

If we deny your request and you reside in a state whose law provides a right of appeal, you may appeal our decision by replying to our response or contacting us at hello@cigarsdaily.com with “Privacy Request Appeal” in the subject line. We will respond to appeals within the time period required by applicable law. If your appeal is denied, you may contact your state attorney general.

CD will not discriminate against you for exercising privacy rights that apply to you under applicable law.

Your California Privacy Rights

California residents may have additional rights regarding personal information under California law, including the California Consumer Privacy Act, as amended by the California Privacy Rights Act, and California’s “Shine the Light” law, to the extent those laws apply to CD.

Subject to applicable law, California residents may request to know, access, correct, or delete certain personal information; request information about certain disclosures of personal information; opt out of the sale or sharing of personal information as described in the “Do Not Sell or Share My Personal Information” section above; and limit the use of sensitive personal information where applicable. California residents also have the right not to receive discriminatory treatment for exercising applicable privacy rights.

In the preceding twelve (12) months, CD has collected the categories of personal information described in the “What Info We Collect” section above, including identifiers (such as name, email address, phone number, and IP address); customer records (such as billing and shipping address and payment-related information); commercial information (such as order history and purchasing behavior); internet or network activity (such as browsing and interaction data); approximate geolocation data; age-verification information, which may include sensitive personal information; and inferences drawn from the foregoing. These categories are collected from the sources, used for the purposes, and disclosed to the categories of third parties described in this Policy.

Except as described in the “Do Not Sell or Share My Personal Information” section, CD does not share personal information with non-Affiliate third parties for such third parties’ own direct marketing purposes absent your consent. If you are a California resident, you may request information about our compliance with California privacy laws and/or withdraw previously given consent to sharing with non-Affiliate third parties for their direct marketing purposes by contacting us through our contact form or by sending a letter to:

Cigars Daily 21021 N. 7th Street Phoenix, Arizona 85024 Attn: Legal Department

Any such request should include “California Privacy Rights Request” in the first line of the description and include your name, email address, street address, city, state, and ZIP code so we can process and verify the request. Please note that we may only be required to respond to certain requests as required by applicable law, and we may deny or limit requests where permitted by law.

Although users are required to be twenty-one (21) years of age or older to use the Service, as required by California law, if any California residents under the age of eighteen (18) have improperly registered to use the Service and posted content or information on the Service, they can request removal by contacting us through our contact form, detailing where the content or information is posted and attesting that they posted it. CD will then make reasonable good faith efforts to remove the post from prospective public view or anonymize it so the minor cannot be individually identified to the extent required by applicable law and to terminate the unauthorized account. This removal process cannot ensure complete or comprehensive removal. For instance, third parties may have republished or archived content by search engines and others that CD does not control.

Changes to This Privacy Policy

We reserve the right to change this Privacy Policy prospectively effective upon the posting of the revised Privacy Policy, and your use of our Service indicates your consent to the privacy policy posted at the time of use. However, we will not use your previously collected Company-Collected PI, to the extent it is not collected under the new privacy policy, in a manner materially different than represented at the time it was collected without your consent, except where permitted by applicable law.

To the extent any provision of this Privacy Policy is found by a competent tribunal to be invalid or unenforceable, such provision shall be severed to the extent necessary for the remainder to be valid and enforceable.
