5. COOKIES

TAAP and certain third party service providers use cookies (and other tracking technologies, such as beacons) when you access this website. Cookies are tiny pieces of data that are sent to your browser to obtain certain preferences and choices about you. Cookies do not hurt your browser or hard drive, nor do they carry bugs or worms. Cookies are used, among other things, to (i) store, remember, and process the products in your cart (ii) understand and save your preferences for future visits (iii) compile aggregate (statistical) data about website traffic and user interactions and introduce new tools so as to offer better user-experience.

Cookies may be of two durations: the session cookies that expire when you close a browsing session and persistent cookies that expire when the set date is up. While session cookies operate and expire when you finish browsing on this website, persistent cookies stay for longer, as they have a longer lifespan and expiry dates.

You have the right to block certain or all cookies from tracking certain preferences and choices on your browser. You may do this by using the help, tools, or settings of the applicable browser. Please, be aware that blocking cookies may not provide you with certain features. For example, if you block the cookie that helps us store and remember the products in your cart, you may not be able to store products in your cart.

6. THIRD PARTY TRACKING TOOLS

We also use certain third party tools to track your activities and preferences for marketing purposes. We use third party tracking tools to carry out certain actions, such as to gather aggregate data, track user heatmap for conversions, and track user actions on our newsletters.

We use Google Analytics, a third party tracking tool from Google Inc. that helps us gather analytics about the traffic on the website. The information gathered by Google Analytics includes anonymous information about how long visitors stay on the website, the features they click, the part of the website they are on, and other traffic information. You may opt-out of Google Analytics tracking by installing the “Google Analytics Opt-out” Add-on on your browser.

We also use Instapage to help us with marketing campaigns and analytics. This third party tracking tool helps us track any click on our advert and direct the ad clicker to our landing page. Instapage does not reveal any personal information about the visitor.

7. THE SECURITY OF YOUR INFORMATION

TAAP cares about your privacy. TAAP will do everything humanly and technologically possible to safeguard your personal information from unauthorized access, alteration, or use. We only share personal information about you as described under this Policy. Also, TAAP is integrated with SSL certificates, which help us encrypt all personal information transmitted by you through this website, especially your payment information and login information.

However, you are aware that no information security method is ever 100% secure – since new technologies are developed daily. This means that we do not guarantee you 100% security for any personal information shared with us. TAAP will not be liable if our database is breached by unauthorized third parties.

8. MARKETING COMMUNICATIONS

We may send a series of newsletters and other marketing communications, which may include offers, promotions, and bonuses on new products and services that we believe may interest you.

9. THE RETENTION PERIOD OF YOUR INFORMATION

We retain the personal information submitted by purchasers on our database for as long as they do not request for deletion or termination of their user account. If you request the deletion of any personal information, we will do so in accordance with applicable law. To the extent the law permits, certain information may remain on our database even after your request for deletion (for example, where we are required under applicable law to keep records of transactions).

For information obtained from cookies and customized audiences: they will remain on our database for as long as 12 months before they are automatically deleted.

Likewise, we may transfer personal information about you to third party service providers; who are based in other countries outside the United States.

However, when we transfer personal information about you to third party service providers in a different country, we will ensure their privacy practices are as adequate as this Policy. They will only use personal information about you for no other purposes other than why they are hired.

Please, be aware that the above rights are possible to the extent the applicable law permits.

For example, we may be unable to delete any record of transactions to comply with applicable law.
