AMARE PRIVACY POLICY

OUR COMMITMENT TO PRIVACY

Our Privacy Policy (together with our Terms of Use) has been developed as an extension of our commitment to combine quality products and services with integrity in dealing with users. The Policy is designed to assist you in understanding how we collect, use and protect the personal information provided to us in accordance with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and any other national implementing laws, regulations and secondary legislation, as amended or updated from time to time, in the relevant European jurisdiction to which the processing relates (Data Protection Legislation). This Privacy Policy is applicable only to our websites and not to any third-party websites that may link to or from this website. Such linked websites may have data collection, storage, and use practices and policies that differ materially from our data collection, storage, and use practices and policies as set forth in this Privacy Policy.

WHO ARE WE

Amare Global Europe AB and its Affiliates1 (“Amare Global”, “Amare”, “we”, “us”, “our”, or the “Company”) is a supplier of food and nutritional supplements. For the purpose of the Data Protection Legislation, we are the “data controller”, and we are required to notify you of the information contained in this document.

HOW WE USE INFORMATION

We may use your personal data as necessary to fulfill a contract with you, such as for processing or completing orders for our products or services, and to adhere to our legal responsibilities.

Your personal data might also be processed for our legitimate interests, provided these interests do not infringe upon your rights, interests, and freedom that necessitate the protection of personal data. This can involve processing for marketing, business development, management, as well as for statistical and research activities, which may encompass transaction analysis and the creation of marketing profiles. Should we base our processing on legitimate interests, you are entitled to object, particularly if your specific situation leads you to oppose this processing, or if it is for direct marketing. In these cases, the legal foundation for processing is Art. 6. 1.f) of the GDPR.

In certain cases, with your explicit consent, we may process your personal data for additional purposes. Where consent is necessary, we will explicitly ask for it at the relevant time, and you have the right to withdraw this consent at any point (refer to the ‘Right to Withdraw Consent’ section for more details). Here, the legal basis for processing your data for these purposes is outlined in Art. 6. 1.a) of the GDPR.

Please be aware that depending on the specific reason for using your data, it may be processed on more than one lawful basis. We may use your personal information to optimize the presentation of content on our website, send you the latest updates about our company, events, and product specials, gather your feedback on our services, fulfill obligations from any agreements with you (including processing and updating you on your product order status), enable your participation in interactive features of our service when you choose to do so, and inform you about changes to our products or services. These activities are conducted in accordance with Art. 6. 1.a), Art. 6. 1.b), and Art. 6. 1.f) of the GDPR, depending on whether they are based on your consent, necessary for the performance of a contract, or aligned with our legitimate interests.

THE INFORMATION WE COLLECT

When you visit our site, we collect two types of information: personal information you actively choose to disclose (“Active Information”) and information not visible to you that arises out of your browsing of our site (“Passive Information”). Please note that Passive Information is collected on an aggregate and anonymous basis. The legal basis for processing is either, in case you give us your consent, Art. 6 para. 1 a) GDPR, or in all other cases, Art. 6 para. 1 f) GDPR.

1. Personally Identifiable Information

Personally Identifiable Information is information that identifies and is reasonably linked to you. Such information includes, without limitation: (1) “Contact Data” (such as your name, mailing address and e-mail address); (2) “Demographic Data” (such as your age, gender and date of birth); and (3) “Financial Data” (such as your credit/debit card number and expiration date). We will also keep records of your transaction history. We do not collect Personally Identifiable Information from you through this Website without first asking you to provide it. The Website does not gather Personally Identifiable Information from you without your knowledge. We use your financial information, such as a bank account or credit card number ONLY for billing purposes (on the basis of Art. 6 para. 1 b) GDPR).

If you fail to provide certain information when requested, we may not be able to perform the contract we have entered with you, or we may not comply with our legal obligations.

1. Registration

   When you register to become an authorized reseller of our products or services (an “Independent Brand Partner”) or when you register to become a Preferred Customer or other registered customer, we will collect Personally Identifiable Information (such as name, address, email address, telephone number, credit/debit card information, and your Social Security, TIN or VAT number, as applicable). This Personally Identifiable Information is securely stored and may be accessed on our website. You are assigned an identification number and select your own password – both are needed to enter the Site and to access your Contact Information. Please safeguard your password in a secure location as we are not responsible for breaches into the system when access is willingly provided.

2. Ordering

   When you place an order for products or services, we collect Personally Identifiable Information (such as name, contact and billing information, credit card, and other transactional information). We use this information to deliver your order, process payment, and to communicate the status of your order.

3. Credit and Debit Card Storage

   Credit and Debit Card Storage: Credit and debit card information collected at registration or for product orders is used only to process payment for the transaction and, generally, is not retained on our Site. However, you may voluntarily elect to securely store multiple credit cards to be used for payment for product orders and/or payment of registration and registration renewal fees.

4. Surveys and Promotions

   Occasionally, you may voluntarily provide Personally Identifiable Information to complete surveys and questionnaires or to participate in user polls. We use this information to improve our products and services and to ensure that we’re providing accurate disclosures. We may also use your Personally Identifiable Information to provide you newsletters and other marketing information that coincide with your preferences. You may customize your marketing preferences, or let us know if you do not wish to receive any promotional materials, by contacting us at compliance.eur@amare.com, or by adjusting your Subscriptions & Email options on the Site.

2. Passive Information

We store and collect various types of passive information on an aggregate and anonymous basis. This information may include such technical information as it pertains to your Internet protocol address, your device operating system and browser type, cookies, and an address of a referring website or any other path you take to reach our website all described in greater detail below.

Sharing of Personally Identifiable Information with Third Parties – Our Disclosure Practices

Except under the following circumstances and otherwise as set forth in this Privacy Policy, we will keep your Personally Identifiable Information private and will not sell it or share it with third parties.

• Disclosure in Connection with Services. We will disclose your Personally Identifiable Information to those who provide services to us in the operation of our business such as the performance of technical, administrative and data processing tasks such as hosting, billing, fulfillment, and data storage and security.
• By Law or to Protect Rights. We disclose Personally Identifiable Information when required to do so by law, or in response to a subpoena or court order, or when we believe in our sole discretion that disclosure is reasonably necessary to protect our property or rights or the property or rights of third parties or the public at large.
• Legally Required Law Enforcement, Judicial and Administrative Agency Disclosures.  We will disclose Personally Identifiable Information as necessary to comply with judicial and administrative orders, subpoenas, Civil or Criminal Investigative Demands, Administrative and Regulatory Demands and other legal obligations. In order for us to conduct business in certain jurisdictions, we may be required to disclose certain Personally Identifiable Information to regulatory authorities in such jurisdictions. Such information may include, but is not limited to, income information, name, address, email address, and other contact information.
• Fraud Prevention. We may share Personal Information necessary to the prevention of fraud, illegal activities, and security breaches. Because of this, it’s possible some of your personal information may be shared with fraud prevention agencies. If false or inaccurate information is provided and fraud is identified, details of this fraud may be passed on to these agencies.
• Business Transfers; Bankruptcy. We reserve the right to transfer all Personally Identifiable Information in our possession to a successor organization in the event of a merger, acquisition, or bankruptcy or other sale of all or a portion of our assets. Other than to the extent ordered by a bankruptcy or other court, the use and disclosure of all transferred Personally Identifiable Information will be subject to this Privacy Policy, or to a new privacy policy if you are given notice of that new privacy policy and an opportunity to affirmatively opt-out of it. Personally Identifiable Information submitted or collected after a transfer, however, may be subject to a new privacy policy adopted by a successor organization.
• Unpaid Accounts. If you fail to pay any balance owed to us for products ordered or services that we provide to you, we may, as permitted by law, report your Personally Identifiable Information, including without limitation your unpaid balance, to consumer credit reporting services, collection agencies and others.
• Lead Assignment. We occasionally will assign prospective sales and prospective Brand Partner and Preferred Customer leads to Independent Brand Partners. In these cases, we will provide the prospective customer, Preferred Customer, or Brand Partner with the appropriate Brand Partner’s name and contact information and/or provide a Brand Partner with the prospective customer’s, Preferred Customer’s or Brand Partner’s name and contact information. Therefore, if you join Amare Global as a Brand Partner or as a Preferred Customer, or if you register as a customer and order products, and you were not introduced by a Brand Partner, your contact information will be shared with a Brand Partner selected by us. Likewise, if you are a Brand Partner and you have a new Brand Partner, Preferred Customer, or other customer assigned to you, your contact information will be shared with such individual.
• Brand Partner Locator Feature. We have a Brand Partner Locator feature on our website. Pursuant to this feature, a prospective customer or prospective Brand Partner can locate a nearby Brand Partner. In order to make the Brand Partner Locator feature and the lead assignments effective, the company will provide the prospective customer or prospective Brand Partner with the appropriate Brand Partner’s name and contact information, which may include his/her telephone number, address, and/or email address.
• Downline Activity/Genealogy Reports. Amare Global is a network marketing company. Therefore, we provide certain information to Brand Partners regarding other Brand Partners and Preferred Customers and other registered customers enrolled in a Brand Partner’s downline marketing organization (sales team). To help Brand Partners manage their independent businesses, we provide our Brand Partners with some of the Personally Identifiable Information of the other Brand Partners whom they have personally sponsored/enrolled as well as other Brand Partners who are on their marketing teams. If you enroll as a Brand Partner or register as a Preferred Customer or other customer, your name, address, telephone number, and email address, as well as data relating to your sales, purchases, and recruitment activity may be disclosed to the Brand Partner who sponsored you and to other Brand Partners who are upline to the Brand Partner who sponsored/enrolled you. When enrolling, you have the choice of limiting the Personal Information about you that is shared. Such information is shared via the Brand Partner Back-Office. Information relating to downline Brand Partners is made available to upline Brand Partners subject to a confidentiality and non-solicitation covenant in the agreement that each Brand Partner enters into with us. However, we do not warrant that Brand Partners will adhere to the confidentiality and non-solicitation covenants, and we shall not be responsible for any Brand Partners’ violation of these covenants. By enrolling as a Brand Partner or registering as a Preferred Customer or other customer, you consent to the disclosure of your Personally Identifiable Information as described in this paragraph.
• Surveys Conducted by Third Parties. It may become necessary to conduct surveys of our customers or Brand Partners. Should we deem it necessary to conduct a survey, we may outsource the survey to a third party. In that event we will provide the third-party survey company with certain of your Personally Identifiable information as is necessary for the third-party survey company to conduct the survey and to those third parties whom we engage to review and analyze the results of the survey. We will not provide your social security number, credit card or banking information to the survey provider.

Data Retention

We will keep your personal data only for the time necessary to achieve the purposes for which it was collected, with the retention period being influenced by the type and length of your relationship with us. When determining how long to retain personal data, we take into account the volume, type, and sensitivity of the data, the risk of harm from unauthorized access or sharing, the reasons we process your personal data and if those objectives can be met by other means, along with any legal obligations we must fulfill.
