The Sites are intended to be a safe environment for anyone who accesses and/or uses them or posts, submits, enters, transmits, or receives information, including without limitation software codes, and all sorts of other information in any and every format, including text, graphic designs, still images, videos, and any and every format, now existing or that may be created in the future (the “Content”).

This Policy governs your access and use of this Website, and Makellos’ privacy practices with respect to the Website and Makellos’ Social Media Sites. By using Makellos’ Sites, you consent to the collection, processing, use, disclosure and retention of your information by Makellos as described in this Policy. You will also be subject to any additional terms posted with respect to individual sections of Makellos’ Sites, which also govern your use of Makellos’ Sites. These additional terms include, without limitation the Terms of Service for Makellos’ Sites and Makellos’ Dealer’s Corner Terms.

Your Acceptance of this Policy

If you do not agree to this Policy, you are directed to discontinue using and accessing Makellos’ Sites. Makellos reserves the right to change or update this Policy at any time and without prior notice. Your continued access or use of Makellos’ Sites after such changes or updates indicates your acceptance of the Policy as changed or updated. It is your responsibility to review this Policy regularly. This Policy was last updated on September 16, 2019.

Collection, Processing, Use, Disclosure and Retention of Information About You

When you use the Website, Makellos automatically tracks and may record certain information about you. This information includes, but is not necessarily limited to, your Internet Protocol (IP) address, your Internet browser and version, your operating system, the Internet site or URL from which you came from prior to landing on Makellos’ Sites, the date and time that you access or use our Sites, geolocation information, metadata information, searches that you conduct, the fact that you visited the Sites, the pages that you visit within the Sites, your browsing activity on such pages, any information entered (whether or not actually submitted) on the pages that you visit within the Sites, mouse movements, clicks, scrolls and other data inputs that you make while on the Sites, and the Internet site or URL to which you go upon leaving Makellos’ Sites. Makellos reserves the right to use this information, in an aggregated and non-personally identifiable form only, to monitor the Sites’ performance, utilization of features and services, traffic trends, and other analytical and optimization information.

“Cookies”, “web beacons”, Internet tags, pixel tags, and clear GIFs (collectively, “Cookies”) are pieces of information that may be placed on your computer by a website, social media site or platform, or application for the purpose of facilitating and enhancing its communications and interactions with you. Makellos may use cookies to (i) customize your visitation experience, (ii) deliver Content consistent with your stated interests, (iii) provide you with custom-tailored Content, and (iv) save your password (if you have registered with the Site) so that you do not have to re-enter it each time that you visit the Site. By showing Makellos how and when its users use the Site, cookies also help Makellos ascertain which areas are popular and which are not. Improvements and updates to the Site may be based on data such as total number of visitors and pages viewed. Most Internet browsers are initially set to accept cookies. You can, however, set your Internet browser to refuse cookies.

Except as otherwise provided in this Policy or Makellos’ Terms of Service, Makellos will not share, sell, trade or rent your personally identifiable information to third parties without your advance written permission or as required by law. When you register to use any of our Sites and/or the Dealer’s Corner (described below), and/or when you submit personal information to Makellos or any of the Sites, Makellos may ask you to provide certain personally identifiable information about yourself, such as your name, zip code, phone number, and email address. When you communicate with Makellos via email, telephone, fax or otherwise, Makellos may become privy to additional personally identifiable information about you. Makellos may use your information to market and/or sell products and services to you. By registering, you expressly opt-in and consent to Makellos contacting you subject to applicable law.

When you provide any personal information to Makellos by way of the Sites, you understand and consent to the collection, processing, use, disclosure and retention of such information by on or behalf of Makellos in the United States and/or any other country or jurisdiction, to the maximum extent permitted by such applicable laws. Makellos’ collection of personal information shall be limited to the purposes identified by Makellos in this Policy or Makellos’ Terms of Service. You may withdraw such consent as provided in this Policy or Makellos’ Terms of Service, provided that pursuant to law or other reasons, there may be circumstances in which you may not withdraw your consent to the collection, processing, use, disclosure and retention of your information. In any such case of your withdrawal of consent, you acknowledge that it may require a period of time before Makellos fully implements your request and you may therefore still be contacted by Makellos for a period of time thereafter in connection with prior consent. Notwithstanding your withdrawal of any consent, Makellos may still subsequently contact you for other purposes that are unrelated to marketing and/or selling, including without limitation legal or regulatory purposes. Please be aware that applicable law may require or permit the collection, processing, use or retention of your information without your consent.

If Makellos sells or transfers all or a portion of its business, whether to an affiliate, subsidiary, related entity, third party or otherwise, or if Makellos enters into a consolidation, merger, sale of stock or assets, or any similar transaction or enters into bankruptcy or insolvency, you expressly agree that Makellos shall have the right to sell or transfer any information Makellos has about you. In such a case, Makellos shall request that all parties involved in any such transaction conduct the collection, processing, use, disclosure and retention of your information in the same manner as Makellos does in this Policy.

Most Internet browsers can be set to transmit digital “Do Not Track” requests to websites and social media sites and platforms. Such sites may, but are not required to, comply with “Do Not Track” requests. At this time, Makellos does not respond to any digital “Do Not Track” requests.

You may at any time prevent Makellos from using your email address by “opting out” of specific mailing lists and services. To “opt out,” please send an email to Makellos at info@makellos.com.

If you have any questions about Makellos’ handling or use of your personal information, please contact Makellos’ Information Officer at the address below:

Makellos’ Social Media Sites

Makellos maintains social media accounts and sites on independent third party websites and platforms including, without limitation, Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, YouTube, Google+, Instagram, Pinterest and Houzz. Your use of Makellos’ Social Media Sites shall be subject to all of the following: (1) this Policy; (2) Makellos’ Terms of Service; (3) Makellos’ Dealer’s Corner Terms; and (4) the terms of use, privacy policy, and all other applicable terms and conditions for each such Social Media Site and platform in effect at the time.

In addition, when you register to use social media websites and platforms in general, you are generally required to furnish profile and other information to such websites and platforms in accordance with their own internal policies. Therefore, by using Makellos’ Social Media Sites, you are authorizing Makellos to collect and retain information about you, including your profile and other information that you have disclosed to such social media websites and platforms, and other tracking information arising from your access and use of Makellos’ Social Media Sites. You expressly consent to Makellos’ collection and retention of such information in accordance with this Policy, Makellos’ Terms of Service and Dealer’s Corner Terms.

Registration and Passwords

Access to many pages on the Website, including the Dealer’s Corner, is limited to active Makellos dealers who have registered to use the Website. In order to register, you will be required to apply on the Website to become a Makellos dealer. Dealers are required to meet criteria established by Makellos, including annual sales, among others. Makellos reserves the exclusive right to establish and/or change these criteria from time to time and without notice to you. Once you are approved by Makellos as a dealer, you will receive a unique username and password in order to access the Dealer’s Corner. You will not distribute to or share your username or your password with others. You are solely responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your username and your password. You will be responsible for all consequences and damages arising from all uses of your registration, whether or not authorized by you. You agree to notify Makellos immediately of any unauthorized use of your registration, username or password.

Credit Card Processing and Security

We have taken numerous steps to ensure that your payment information is processed confidentially, accurately, and securely.

Makellos seeks to make your shopping experience safe. If unauthorized charges are made on your credit card as a result of shopping or submitting an order at the Website, we will reimburse you for any fraudulent charges not covered by your credit card issuer. The Fair Credit Billing Act prohibits your credit card company from holding you responsible for more than fifty dollars ($50) of fraudulent credit card charges if you are a victim of credit card fraud.

To make sure you receive optimum protection when ordering from Makellos’ Sites, we recommend using the latest version of your internet browser software and checking for and downloading security updates. Please also note that email is not a secure method of communication. Accordingly, Makellos asks you not to send your credit card information, checking information or other personal information to us through email. If you prefer, you may place your order by telephone. Simply call Makellos at (215) 666-0368. To further protect your information, we utilize state of the art back-end systems and restrict employee access to your information.

To determine whether your browser is in secure mode, you may confirm that a “lock” or a “key” icon is displayed in the lower left-hand corner of your browser window. You can also confirm this by looking at the URL bar on top of your browser. This line will typically show the first characters as “https” when a secure connection has been established rather than “http” which indicates a connection that is not secure.

Makellos wants you to feel completely comfortable. If you have more questions about the security systems that Makellos has in place, feel more comfortable ordering by telephone, please call (215) 666-0368 and we will be happy to help you.
