SECURITY OF YOUR INFORMATION
Byronesque uses reasonable administrative, physical, and electronic security measures to protect against the loss, misuse, and alteration of personal information, including limiting the number of people who have physical access to our database servers, as well as employing electronic security systems and password protections that guard against unauthorized access. In addition, it is our policy to never send your credit card number via email. Please note that email is not encrypted and is not considered to be a secure means of transmitting credit card information.
We use Secure Socket Layers (SSL), the industry standard in transferring information to process your orders made on the Site. The SSL encrypts, or translates, your order information into a highly indecipherable code, which is processed immediately. All credit card transactions occur in a secure area of our site, to protect you from any loss, misuse or alteration of information collected. The checkout process occurs in a secure area of our site, where the page address (URL) changes from http to https, to confirm the area is secure. The payment process occurs in this secure zone for the entire checkout process.
Unfortunately, despite our best efforts, the transmission of data over the internet cannot be guaranteed to be 100% secure. While we use reasonable means to ensure the security of information you transmit to us, we cannot guarantee that third parties will not intercept such information. Any such transmission is at your own risk.
CHILDREN'S PRIVACY
The Site is intended for use by individuals over the age of 18 and not for children. Byronesque does not knowingly collect information from children under 18 on the Site. If you are under 18, you should not submit any personally identifiable information on the Site.
DATA TRANSFER OUTSIDE OF THE EUROPEAN UNION
Third parties who may process your data may be located in countries outside the European Union. They offer an adequate level of data protection, as established by specific decisions of the European Commission.
The lawful transfer mechanism of your personal data to countries that do not belong to the European Union and that have not been assessed as offering adequate levels of protection will be performed only (a). after Standard Contractual Clauses have been put in place (b). if the transfer is necessary for the purchase of goods offered on our website or for registration on the website or use of services on the website (c). for the management of your requests.
