WPML uses cookies to determine the current language of the visitor, the language last visited and the language of the users who have logged in. As you use the plugin, WPML will share data related to the site via the installer. No data is shared by the user himself.

WooCommerce

This example shows basic information about what personal information your store might collect, store, and share, and who might have access to that information. Depending on the activated settings and the additional plugins used, the specific information that your shop uses will differ. We recommend legal advice to clarify what information should be included in your privacy policy.

We collect information about you during the ordering process in our shop.

What we collect and store

While you visit our website, we record:
  • Viewed products: Here we show you products that you have recently viewed.
  • Location, IP address and browser type: We use this for purposes such as estimating taxes and shipping costs

When you shop with us, we will ask you to provide information such as your name, billing and shipping addresses, email address and phone number, credit card/payment details, and optional account information such as a username and password. We use this information for the following purposes:

When you create an account with us, we store your name, address, email address and phone number. This information will be used to fill in the payment information for future orders. We typically store information about you for as long as we need it for the purpose of collection and use and as we are obligated to store it. For example, we store order information for XXX years for tax and billing reasons. This includes your name, your e-mail address and your billing and shipping address. We also store comments or ratings if you choose to leave them.

Members of our team have access to the information you provide to us. For example, both admins and shop managers can access:
  • Order information such as products purchased, time of purchase and shipping address, and

Our team members have access to this information to process orders, issue refunds and provide you with support.
