Purposes of Processing
Forney processes personal information to: (i) execute transactions that you request, (ii) when you provide your explicit consent, (iii) for our legitimate business interests such as maintaining our books and records, securing and protecting the integrity of this Site, and for Service and product development; and (iv) as permitted to meet by applicable legal requirements.

Personal Information Collection, Use, and Sharing
As a general matter, we limit the amount of personal information we collect to the minimum necessary to provide the information, products and services that you request or otherwise respond to the specific reason that you contacted us.

We primarily collect and have access to personal information that you voluntarily provide to us via email or other direct contact with you. We will do not provide this information to any third party other than those that we engage to ship orders or support our delivery of Services. These third parties are prohibited from using your personal information for any purpose other than what we dictate to them.

If required by law, we will ask for your express consent to send you emails in the future to inform you about specials, new products or services. Otherwise, we will send these communications to you unless you tell us otherwise.

If we are involved in a reorganization, merger, acquisition, bankruptcy or sale of our assets, your personal information may be transferred as part of that transaction. We will notify you (for example, via a message to your email address) of any such deal and outline your choices in that event.

How we Protect Your Personal Information
We have implemented reasonable technical and organizational measures designed to protect your personal information against accidental or intentional destruction or loss, and unauthorized disclosure or access.

You will not have to pay a fee to access your personal information (or to exercise any of the other rights). However, we may charge a reasonable fee if your request for access is unfounded or excessive. Alternatively, we may refuse to comply with the request in such circumstances. In addition, there may be requests that we are unable to process because of other European Union (EU) legal requirements. If a request is denied, we will notify you of the reason.

We may need to request specific information from you to help us confirm your identity and ensure your right to access the information (or to exercise any of your other rights). This is another appropriate security measure to ensure that personal information is not disclosed to any person who has no right to receive it.

If you are located in the EU, you have the right to lodge a complaint with an EU Supervisory Authority. However, if you have a complaint regarding the processing of your personal information we request that you first contact us and we will reply on a timely basis.
