Privacy Policy

Thank you for your interest in this Privacy Policy and welcome to Still Alive and our website and shop located at www.stillalivesupplyco.com (our “website”). At Still Alive, we are committed to protecting and respecting your privacy. This privacy policy sets out the basis on which we will process any Personal Data that we may collect about you as a visitor to our website. This policy further sets out how we protect your privacy and your rights in respect of our use of your Personal Data. 

What Is Personal Data?

Personal Data is information that makes it possible to identify a natural person. This includes, in particular, your name, date of birth, address, telephone number, e-mail address, but also your IP address. Anonymous data exists if no personal reference to the user can be made.

What Is Processing?

"Processing" means and covers virtually any handling of data.

What Law Applies?

We will only use your Personal Data in accordance with Washington’s privacy and consumer data protection common law and statutory requirements and the EU's General Data Protection Regulation (“GDPR”), and of course only as described in this Privacy Policy.

Who Is Responsible For Data Processing?

The responsible party within the meaning of the above is Still Alive Supply Co. of 300 Lenora Street PMB 678, Seattle WA 98121, USA (“Still Alive”, “we”, “us”, “our”). If you want to contact us or have any questions, you can reach us by email using info@stillalivesupplyco.com with “Data Protection” in the subject line.

What Are The Legal Bases For Processing Personal Data?

We have to have at least one of the following legal bases to process your Personal Data: a) you have given your consent; b) the data is necessary for the fulfillment of a contract/pre-contractual measures; c) the data is necessary for the fulfillment of a legal obligation; or d) the data is necessary to protect our legitimate interests, provided that your interests are not overridden. 

What Personal Data Do We Collect From You?

We may collect and process the following Personal Data about you:

a) Personal Data that you give us:

This is information about you that you give to us by filling in forms on our website or corresponding with us by telephone, post, email, or otherwise. It may include, for example, your name, address, email address, and telephone number; information about your business relationship with us; and information about your requirements and interests. 

We process your first name, last name, e-mail address, billing address, and shipping address for the delivery of your order and the data related to your contract with us to handle the contractual relationship. The legal basis for processing is the provision of a contractual service. When you place an order and you give us Personal Data of a third party, you represent and warrant that the Personal Data is up-to-date, complete, and accurate. 

It is also possible for you to register for an account. For this purpose, you can choose a password together with your email address, both of which will enable you to log in more easily without having to enter your data again when you make a future purchase or to access your order history. We will hold your data for further orders as long as you have your account with us. 

If you make a purchase your payment data will be processed via our payment service providers Shop Pay (Shopify). Payment data will solely be processed through your selected payment service provider and we have no access to any Payment Data you may submit. The legal basis for the provision of a payment system is the establishment and implementation of the contract.

b) Personal Data that our website and other systems collect about you: 

If you visit our website, it will automatically collect some information about you and your visit, including the Internet protocol (IP) address used to connect your device to the Internet and some other information, such as the pages on our site that you visit. This is used to monitor the performance of the website and improve the experience of visitors to the website. 

To provide our website, we use the services of Webflow Inc, who process all data to be processed in connection with the operation of our website on our behalf. The legal basis for the data processing is our legitimate interest in providing our website.

We use the eCommerce system of Shopify to publish and maintain the created and edited content and texts on our website. This means that all content and texts submitted to us are transferred to Webflow, and that your contact and contract data and your usage data are stored on Webflow's servers. The legal basis for this processing is our legitimate interest.

We use so-called cookies on our website. Cookies are pieces of information that are transmitted from our web server or third-party web servers to your web browser and stored there for later retrieval. Cookies may be small files or other types of information storage. As set out in Washington’s privacy and consumer data protection common law and statutory requirements and the EU`s Privacy and Electronic Communications Directive (“PECD”), we need to obtain consent for the use of non-essential cookies. For further information on the cookies we use, please refer to our Cookie Policy.

c) Other information: 

For business reasons, we analyze the data we have on web and server traffic patterns, website interactions, browsing behavior etc. The analyses serve us alone and are not disclosed externally and processed using anonymous analyses with summarized and or anonymized values (“Aggregated Data”). Aggregated Data could be derived from your Personal Data but is not considered Personal Data in law as this data will not directly or indirectly reveal your identity. However, if we combine or connect Aggregated Data with your Personal Data so that it can directly or indirectly identify you, we treat the combined data as Personal Data which will be used in accordance with this Privacy Policy. For this purpose we use Google Analytics from Google. The legal basis is our legitimate interest and your consent. For further information on our use of Google Analytics, please refer to our Cookie Policy.

Our website also uses a cookie consent tool to obtain your consent to the storage of cookies and to document this consent. When you enter our website, the following Personal Data is transferred to us: i) Your consent(s) or revocation of your consent(s); ii) Your IP address; iii) Information about your browser; iv) Information about your device; v) Time of your visit to our website. The legal basis for processing is both your consent and our legal obligation.

Other Uses Of Your Personal Data

We may also collect, store, and use your Personal Data for the following purposes:

  • to operate, manage, develop, and promote our business and, in particular, our relationship with you and related transactions, including, for example: some text
    • marketing purposes (when we have either gathered prior opt-in consent and/or have a legitimate interest to send you communications which we believe to be relevant and of use to you); 
    • to operate, administer, and improve our website and other aspects of the way in which we conduct our business;
    • to offer you our services;
    • to provide you with services or information that you may have requested; and
    • to keep you informed and updated on relevant topics or services you may be interested in.
  • to protect our business from fraud, money laundering, breach of confidence, theft of proprietary materials, and other financial or business crimes; 
  • to comply with our legal and regulatory obligations, bring and defend legal claims and assert legal rights; and
  • if the purpose is directly connected with an assigned purpose previously made known to you.

We will only process your Personal Data as necessary so that we can pursue the purposes described above and where we have a legal basis for such processing. Where our lawful basis for processing is that such processing is necessary to pursue our legitimate interests, we will only process your Personal Data where we have concluded that our processing does not prejudice you or your privacy in a way that would override our legitimate interest. In exceptional circumstances, we may also be required by law to disclose or otherwise process your Personal Data. 

Change Of Purpose

We will only use your Personal Data for the purposes for which we collected it as detailed above, unless we reasonably consider that we need to use it for another reason and that reason is compatible with the original purpose. If we need to use your Personal Data for an unrelated purpose, we will notify you, and we will explain the legal basis which allows us to do so.

Data Sharing

In certain cases, it is necessary to transmit the processed Personal Data in the course of data processing. In this respect, there are different recipient bodies and categories of recipients. No mobile information will be shared with third parties/affiliates for marketing/promotional purposes. All the above categories exclude text-messaging originator opt-in data and consent; this information will not be shared with any third parties.

Internal

If necessary, we transfer your Personal Data within Still Alive. Access to your Personal Data is only granted to authorized employees who need access to the data due to their job, e.g., to provide our products or services or to contact you in case of queries. 

External bodies

Personal Data is transferred to our service providers in the following instances:

  • in the context of fulfilling our contract with you (including our forwarded, fulfillment agents and couriers),
  • to use marketing services and to advertise our products and services online,
  • to communicate with you,
  • to provide our website, and 
  • to state authorities and institutions as far as this is required or necessary.

International transfers 

We may transfer your Personal Data to other companies as necessary for the purposes described in this Privacy Policy. In order to provide adequate protection for your Personal Data when it is transferred, we have contractual arrangements regarding such transfers. We take all reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect the Personal Data we transfer.

How Long Do We Keep Your Personal Data?

We will delete your Personal Data when we no longer need such Personal Data, for instance where:

  • it is no longer necessary for us to retain your Personal Data to fulfill the purposes for which we had collected it; 
  • we believe that your Personal Data that we hold is inaccurate; or 
  • in certain cases where you have informed us that you no longer consent to our processing of your Personal Data.

Sometimes, however, there are legal or regulatory requirements which may require us to retain your Personal Data for a specified period, and in such cases we will retain your Personal Data for such specified period; and we may need to retain your Personal Data for certain longer periods in relation to legal disputes, and in such cases we will retain it for such longer periods to the extent required.

Data Security

Our website uses SSL or TLS encryption to ensure the security of data processing and to protect the transmission of confidential content, such as orders, login data or contact requests that you send to us. We have also implemented numerous security measures (“technical and organizational measures”) for example encryption or need to know access, to ensure the most complete protection of Personal Data processed through our website. 

Marketing

Insofar as you have given us your consent to process your Personal Data for marketing and advertising purposes, we are entitled to contact you for these purposes via the communication channels you have given your consent to.

You may give us your consent in a number of ways including by selecting a box on a form where we seek your permission, or sometimes your consent is implied from your interactions or contractual relationship. Where your consent is implied, it is on the basis that you would have a reasonable expectation of receiving marketing communication based on your interactions or contractual relationship with us.

Our Marketing generally takes the form of email but may also include other less traditional or emerging channels. These forms of contact will be managed by us, or by our contracted service providers. Every directly addressed marketing sent by us or on our behalf will include a means by which you may unsubscribe or opt out.

SMS Marketing

General and Opt-In

Insofar as you have given us your separate consent and your mobile number to process your data for marketing and advertising per SMS, we are entitled to send you marketing, promotional or informational messages via our service provider SimpleTexting.

A mobile user might opt-in by: i) Entering a phone number online, ii) Sending an Mobile Originating (MO) message containing an advertising keyword, iii) Filling out a paper form that includes their phone number, or iv) Signing up at a point-of-sale location.

All marketing and advertising per SMS will be managed by us, or by our contracted service providers. Every directly addressed marketing and advertising per SMS sent or made by us or on our behalf will include a means by which you may unsubscribe or opt out. 

You agree that any mobile phone number you provide to us is a valid mobile phone number of which you are the owner or authorized user. If you change your mobile phone number or are no longer the owner or authorized user of the mobile phone number, you agree to promptly notify us.

For support, reply HELP to any mobile message from us. Our mobile messaging platform may not recognize requests that modify the foregoing commands, and you agree that we and our service providers will not be liable for failing to honor requests that do not comply with the requirements in these Terms.

We may send marketing and advertising per SMS in various formats. Promotional messages advertise and promote our products and services and may include promotions, specials, and other marketing offers.

Our marketing and advertising per SMS may be sent using an automated technology, including an autodialer, automated system, or automatic telephone dialing system. Our message frequency will vary but will not exceed 7 messages per Week (excluding appointment reminders).

We do not charge for mobile messages sent but you are responsible for any message and data rates imposed by your mobile provider, as standard data and message rates may apply for SMS and MMS alerts.

We will not disclose or otherwise distribute your phone number to third parties unless lawfully required to do so. We will never rent or sell your phone number to any third party, nor will we use your phone number to initiate a call or SMS message to you without your express or implied prior consent. Your wireless carrier and other service providers also collect data about your SMS usage, and their practices are governed by their own privacy policies.

We may also change the telephone number or short code we use and we will notify you of any such change. You acknowledge that any requests sent to a telephone number or short code that has been changed may not be received by us and we will not be responsible for failing to honor a request sent to a telephone number or short code that has been changed.

Your Rights And Privileges

Privacy rights 

You can exercise the following rights:

  • The right to access;
  • The right to rectification;
  • The right to erasure;
  • The right to restrict processing;
  • The right to object to processing;
  • The right to data portability;

Update your information and withdraw your consent 

If you believe that the information we hold about you is inaccurate or request its rectification, deletion, or object to legitimate interest processing, please do so by contacting us.

In the event you want to make a Data Subject Access Request, please contact us. We will respond to requests regarding access and correction as soon as reasonably possible. Should we not be able to respond to your request within thirty (30) days, we will tell you why and when we will be able to respond to your request. If we are unable to provide you with any Personal Data or to make a correction requested by you, we will tell you why.

Who is the competent data protection authority?

The Office of the Attorney General. If you believe that the processing of your personal information is not lawful, you can lodge a complaint with the AG or your local data protection supervisory authority. We would, however, appreciate the chance to deal with your concerns before you approach the AG or any other supervisory authority.

What we do not do
  • We do not request Personal Data from minors and children;
  • We do not process special category data without obtaining prior specific consent;
  • We do not use Automated decision-making including profiling; and
  • We do not sell your Personal Data.

USA Specific Provisions

The following applies to users located elsewhere in the United States. While we understand and appreciate that privacy and consumer data protection laws differ as they are subject to each state's legislature and that no data protection framework similar to the GDPR exists on a federal level, we are committed to follow and apply the for your state relevant privacy rules and regulations. 

As of the day of drafting, the following states had enacted privacy and consumer data protection laws: California, Colorado, Connecticut, Delaware, Florida, Indiana, Iowa, Montana, Oregon, Tennessee, Texas, Utah, and Virginia. Under consideration of the similarities of the above provisions, no conflict should arise pursuing a uniform approach in granting all users in the USA the same rights and privileges as set out above. However, should ambiguity occur, the most stringent provision is chosen to ensure the most comprehensive approach when it comes to protecting your Personal Data.

Further, the following also apply

“Shine the Light”

“Shine the Light” law (Civil Code Section 1798.83) requires us to respond to requests from California asking about the business’s practices related to disclosing Personal Data to third parties for the third parties’ direct marketing purposes. You may make a request about our collection and disclosure of your Personal Data using the contact details provided.

COPPA (Children Online Privacy Protection Act)

When it comes to the collection of Personal Data from children under the age of 13 years old, the Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA) puts parents in control. The Federal Trade Commission, United States’ consumer protection agency, enforces the COPPA Rule, which spells out what operators of websites and online services must do to protect children’s privacy and safety online. We do not specifically market to children under the age of 13 years old.

CAN SPAM Act

The CAN-SPAM Act is a law that sets the rules for commercial email, establishes requirements for commercial messages, gives recipients the right to have emails stopped from being sent to them, and spells out tough penalties for violations. To be in accordance with CAN SPAM, we agree to the following: If at any time you would like to unsubscribe from receiving future emails, you can email us, and we will promptly remove you from ALL correspondence.

Telephone Consumer Protection Act (TCPA)

If we process your Personal Data for the purpose of sending you SMS marketing communications, you may manage your receipt of marketing and non-transactional communications from us by replying or texting ‘STOP’ if you receive our SMS communications. In this respect, the data processing is carried out solely on the basis of our consent in personalized direct advertising per SMS.

Controls For Do-Not-Track Features

Most web browsers and some mobile operating systems and mobile applications include a Do-Not-Track ('DNT') feature or setting you can activate to signal your privacy preference not to have data about your online browsing activities monitored and collected. At this stage, no uniform technology standard for recognizing and implementing DNT signals has been finalized. As such, our website does not currently respond to DNT browser signals or any other mechanism that automatically communicates your choice not to be tracked online. If a standard for online tracking is adopted that we must follow in the future, we will inform you about that practice in a revised version of this policy.

Right to complain

Finally, and in regard to the right to complain to a supervisory authority. You have the right to lodge a complaint about our processing of Personal Data with a supervisory authority responsible for data protection. Users based in the above-mentioned States may lodge a complaint with the relevant district attorney or attorney general office. However, we would appreciate the opportunity to address your concerns before you contact any supervisory authority.

Canada And Mexico Specific Provisions

Both Canada and Mexico have introduced data protection laws that are similar to the GDPR, namely Federal Law for the Protection of Personal Data in the Possession of Private Parties (“LFPDPPP”) supplemented by the Rules of the Federal Law for the Protection of Personal Data in the Possession of Private Parties in Mexico and the Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act (“PIPEDA”) in Canada. Under consideration that the GDPR has played a pivotal role, no conflict should arise pursuing a uniform approach in granting all users in Mexico or Canada the same rights and privileges as set out above. However, should ambiguity occur, the most stringent provision is chosen to ensure the most comprehensive approach when it comes to protecting your personal data.

In terms of your right to complain, Canada’s national supervisory authority is the Office of the Privacy Commissioner (www.priv.gc.ca) and the National Institute of Transparency, Access to Information and Personal Data Protection (Instituto Nacional de Transparencia, Acceso a la Información y Protección de Datos Personales) (“INAI”) is the national supervisory authority in Mexico (www.ifai.org.mx).
