    1. Shlomo uses your personal data to provide the services requested by you and to process your requests and inquiries.
    2. Your personal data is also used for the cookies and tracking utilized in the websites and apps to distinguish you from other users, to improve your use of these interfaces, and to ensure that content in the websites, apps and other relevant interfaces is presented in the most effective manner for you. 
    3. Additional information about our use of cookies and tracking may be found in our Cookies Policy below. 
  4. The types of personal data we collect and how we use it
    1. The personal data collected and used by Shlomo is limited strictly to the data necessary for us to provide you with services we supply in the course of our ongoing business, while operating under the relevant data protection and other regulatory obligations. Access to your data, including physical access, is limited to those employees of Shlomo and third parties who have contracted with us and utilize it only for the purposes outlined below.
    2. There may be circumstances in which we ask you for sensitive personal information about your state of health, in order to provide you with services in our current area of business. In such a case, we will only use this information for these purposes and will delete it when the purpose for which the information was collected or processed is terminated, unless there is a legal obligation not to delete this information
    3. The data collected and processed is both general in nature, (for example, for technical purposes) and, depending on the services you select and utilize, personal data such as your name, contact details, some identifying numbers, the name of your internet provider, your IP address, browser type and system software, as well as the websites you have visited before being transferred to Shlomo websites and apps, including keywords used for searches and the sites from which you have been transferred (e.g., search engine or linked content).
    4. Some automatic processing of your personal data may occur. As is true of most organizations operating websites and apps, we gather certain information automatically and store it in log files. This information includes but is not limited to IP addresses, type of browser, Internet service provider, referring and exit pages, operating systems, a date/time stamp and clickstream data. We may use this information to analyze trends, to administer the website and apps, to track users' movements through them and to gather information about our user base as a whole. We may link this automatically-collected data to personal information for legitimate business purposes, such as to detect and prevent fraudulent activity; and other legally-authorized purposes. 
    5. When you receive services from Shlomo through the websites, apps and other electronic interfaces, you may also be directed to third-party processors (for example, payment service providers, including credit card or online payment providers; and/or location services and the like). When we use such third-party payment processors, we do not store credit card details, but instead rely on the third-party service provider to process personal data in order to provide these services. We contractually require such third-party payment processors to comply with the data protection and other laws and regulations applicable to their payment processing services. Please check the respective service provider's relevant data protection terms and compliance with applicable laws prior to usage of any such processor's services. The same applies to any links to and from websites of third-party networks, advertisers and affiliates. Such third-party websites are governed solely by such third parties' data protection policies and you are advised to be careful and check any such third party's privacy policies and compliance with laws, prior to supplying them with any of your personal data to them. 
    6. Please note that Shlomo may also disclose your data to a third party if we are required to do so by applicable law, court order or governmental regulation; or if such disclosure is otherwise authorized and necessary in support of any criminal or legal investigation or proceeding in accordance with applicable laws and regulations.
    7. Shlomo may need to transfer the data submitted by you for the purposes described above to third parties in locations outside the country in which you are physically located, potentially including countries which may not require an adequate level of protection for your personal data compared with that provided in your country. By accepting this Policy, you consent to such data transfer as described in this section.

    3. We will delete your personal data where the business purpose for which the data was being collected or processed ceases to apply, or if applicable data protection rules require us to delete such personal data. 
    4. The above notwithstanding, Shlomo will not be liable or responsible for any damage or loss resulting from the improper use or any breach of security leading to the accidental or unlawful destruction, loss, alteration, unauthorized disclosure of, or access to, your personal data.
