Policy
Personal Data necessary for shopping
In the course of shopping in our online shop we collect several personal information from you (surname, name, date of birth, postal address and bank account or credit card data). We will process and use your personal data for the purposes of the completion and execution of contracts, i.e. to process your order and payment and to deliver ordered goods. Your e-mail-address will also be used to inform you about the purchase order status.
Use of your data for conclusion and execution of contracts
As far as you have not given us your specific consent we do not use your data for purposes other than for the conclusion and execution of contracts between you and Strofant.us. Only to the extent that is necessary for these purposes we also provide instructed companies, entrusted with the receipt and execution of your order, with your data. In these cases upon complete execution of each contract your data will be blocked for further use and deleted on expiry of the statutory periods of retention.
Use of data for contacts
If you want to send us a message by using the contact form we collect your name/telephone/ country/company/website and your e-mail-address to answer your request. Subsequently the data stored for this purpose will be deleted inasmuch as you have not provided us with your consent in their storage and use for other purposes mentioned in this data protection policy.
Log-files on the visit of our website
Each time you visit our website or download a file log-files, such as IP address, date and time, browsed web page, name of downloaded file, browser version in use, operating system software and the previous website you visited, will be temporarily stored. These data will only be analysed for statistic purposes and to improve our offer. They do not allow any conclusion as to your identity and are deleted subsequently.

Google Analytics
This website uses Google Analytics, a web analytics service provided by Google, Inc. (“Google”). Google Analytics uses “cookies”, which are text files placed on your computer, to help the website analyze how users use the site. The information generated by the cookie about your use of the website (including your IP address) will be transmitted to and stored by Google on servers in the USA. Yet in the event of activation of IP-anonymisation on this website, within the EU member states or within other signatory states of the Agreement on the European Economic Area your IP address will be shortened by Google prior to transmission. Only in exceptional cases the full IP address will be transmitted to a server in the USA and will be shortened there.
On behalf of Vitae Natura Inc. Google will use the generated information for the purpose of evaluating your use of the website, compiling reports on website activity and providing Strofant.us with other services relating to website activity and internet usage. Google may also transfer this information to third parties where required to do so by law, or where such third parties process the information on Google’s behalf.

Social plugins from Facebook, Google+, and Twitter using the “2-click solution”
On our website, we use so-called social plugins (“plugins”) provided by the social networks Facebook, Google+, and the microblogging service Twitter. The companies Facebook Inc., Google Inc., and Twitter Inc. (“providers”) offer these services.
Facebook is operated by Facebook Inc., 1601 S. Californian Ave, Palo Alto, CA 94304, USA (“Facebook”). An overview of Facebook’s plugins and how they look like is provided here: https://developers.facebook.com/docs/plugins
Google+ is operated by Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA (“Google”). An overview of Google’s plugins and how they look like is provided here: https://developers.google.com/+/web/
Twitter is operated by Twitter Inc., 1355 Market St, Suite 900, San Francisco, CA 94103, USA. An overview of the Twitter buttons and how they look like is provided here:https://twitter.com/about/resources/buttons
To enhance the protection of your data when visiting our website, the plugins are linked via the so-called “2-click solution” to the page. This linking guarantees that when calling up a page of our website containing such plugins, a connection to the Facebook, Google+ and Twitter servers is not yet established. It is only once you activate the plugins and thereby grant your approval for the transmission of data that your browser establishes a direct connection to the Google+, Facebook or Twitter servers. The contents of the respective plugin are then transmitted directly to your browser and linked to the page by the appropriate provider. By linking the plugin, the providers obtain the information that your browser has called up the appropriate page of our website, even if you do not have a corresponding profile with the provider or are currently not logged in. This information (including your IP address) is transmitted from your browser directly onto a server of the respective provider in the USA and stored there. If you are logged into one of the social networks, the providers are immediately able to correlate the visit to our website with your profile on the social network. If you interact with the plugins, e.g. by clicking the “Like”, the “+1”, or “Twitter” button, the relevant information is also immediately transmitted directly to one of the providers’ servers and stored there. The information is also published in the social network or your Twitter account and shown to your contacts there. To learn more about the purpose and extent of data collection by the providers as well as your relevant rights and setting options to protect your privacy, please refer to the providers’ data protection information.

If you do not wish Google, Facebook or Twitter to immediately assign the saved data through our website to your profile in the respective service, you must log out of the appropriate service before activating the plugin.
