PRIVACY POLICY
LANG’s privacy policy covers the collection and use of personal information that may be collected by LANG anytime you interact with LANG, such as when you visit our www.drinklang.com website, when you purchase LANG products or when you call our sales or support associates. Please take a moment to read the following to learn more about our information practices, including what type of information is gathered, how the information is used and for what purposes, to whom we disclose the information, and how we safeguard your personal information. Your privacy is a priority at LANG, and we go to great lengths to protect it.
Why we collect personal information?
Because it helps us deliver a superior level of customer service. It enables us to give you convenient access to our products and customer services. In addition, your personal information helps us keep you posted on the latest product announcements, and events that you might like to hear about. If you do not want LANG to keep you up to date with LANG news and the latest information on products and services simply send an email to privacy privacy@drinklang.com with the word unsubscribe as the subject. You may ask us to revoke your consent to the use of your personal information or to delete your account altogether sending a request to the email address privacy@drinklang.com. We reserve up to 30 calendar days to process your request to delete your account.
What informations we collect?
There are a number of situations in which your personal information may help us give you better service. For example, we may ask for your personal information when you’re discussing a service issue on the phone with an associate, downloading materials from our site, participating in an online survey, registering your products, or purchasing a product. At such times, we may collect personal information relevant to the situation, such as your name, mailing address, phone number, email address, and contact preferences; your credit card information and information about the LANG products you own, such as their serial numbers, and date of purchase; and information relating to a support or service issue. We may collect information for market research purposes — to gain a better understanding of our customers and thus provide better products. We also collect information regarding customer activities on our website. This helps us to determine how best to provide useful information to customers and to understand which parts of our websites are of most interest to them.
Why do we disclose your information?
LANG takes your privacy very seriously. Be assured that LANG does not sell or rent your contact information to other marketers. To help us provide superior service, your personal information may be shared with legal entities within the LANG group globally who will safeguard it in accordance with LANG’s privacy policy. There are also times when it may be advantageous for LANG to make certain personal information about you available to companies that LANG has a strategic relationship with or that perform work for LANG to provide products and services to you on our behalf.
These companies may help us process information, extend credit, fulfill customer orders, deliver products to you, manage and enhance customer data, provide customer service, assess your interest in our products and services, or conduct customer research or satisfaction surveys. These companies are also obligated to protect your personal information in accordance with LANG’s policies. Without such information being made available, it would be difficult for you to purchase products, have products delivered to you, receive customer service, provide us feedback to improve our products and services, or access certain services, offers, and content on the www.drinklang.com website.
In all those cases LANG will inform you about what data will be shared, how they will be used and processed, and will provide you the possibility to opt out of the service if you do not agree. At times we may be required by law or litigation to disclose your personal information. We may also disclose information about you if we determine that for national security, law enforcement, or other issues of public importance, disclosure is necessary.
Cookies and other technologies
As is common practice on many corporate websites, LANG’s website uses “cookies” and other technologies to help us understand which parts of our websites are the most popular, where our visitors are going, and how much time they spend there. We also use cookies and other technologies to make sure that our online advertising is bringing customers to our products and services, We use cookies and other technologies to study traffic patterns on our website, to make it even more rewarding as well as to study the effectiveness of our customer communications. And we use cookies to customize your experience and provide greater convenience each time you interact with us.
As is true of most Web sites, we gather certain information automatically and store it in log files. This information includes internet protocol (IP) addresses, browser type, internet service provider (ISP), referring/exit pages, operating system, date/time stamp, and clickstream data. We use this information, which does not identify individual users, to analyze trends, to administer the site, to track users’ movements around the site and to gather demographic information about our user base as a whole. LANG will not use the information collected to market directly to that person.
In some of our email messages we use a “click-through URL” linked to content on the drinklang.com website. When a customer clicks one of these URLs, they pass through our web server before arriving at the destination web page. We track this click-through data to help us determine interest in particular topics and measure the effectiveness of our customer communications. If you prefer not to be tracked simply avoid clicking text or graphic links in the email. In addition we use pixel tags — tiny graphic images — to tell us what parts of our website customers have visited or to measure the effectiveness of searches customers perform on our site. Pixel tags also enable us to send email messages in a format customers can read. And they tell us whether emails have been opened to assure that we’re only sending messages that are of interest to our customers.
How do we protect your information?
LANG takes precautions — including administrative, technical, and physical measures — to safeguard your personal information against loss, theft, and misuse, as well as unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, and destruction.
The Lang Online Store uses Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) encryption on all web pages where personal information is required. To make purchases from the Lang Online Store, you must use an SSL-enabled browser. Doing so protects the confidentiality of your personal and credit card information while it’s transmitted over the Internet. We do not store credit card details nor do we share customer details with any 3rd parties.
You can help us by also taking precautions to protect your personal data when you are on the Internet. Change your passwords often using a combination of letters and numbers, and make sure you use a secure web browser.
Our companywide commitment to your privacy
As we said, LANG takes protecting your privacy very seriously. To make sure your personal information is secure, we communicate these guidelines to LANG employees and strictly enforce privacy safeguards within the company. In addition, LANG supports industry initiatives — such as the Online Privacy Alliance and TRUSTe — to preserve privacy rights on the Internet and in all aspects of electronic commerce. And we do not knowingly solicit personal information from minors or send them requests for personal information.
