Who We Are

https://www.habsns.com is operated by HABNS INC, a legal entity registered in Canada.

Your Acknowledgment of This Policy

You are not legally required to provide us with any personal data. This means that if you provide us with data, you are doing so out of your own volition and consent; we cannot force you to provide any personal data, but without your personal data we cannot provide you with the services.
You have the right to withdraw from this consent at any time, and in such a case request that we either cease processing your personal data or that we delete whatever personal data is no longer required to retain under law. Such removal of data may also prevent you from receiving updates and support.

Which Personal Data Do We Collect About You?

While you visit our site, we will track:

  • Products you’ve viewed: we’ll use this to, for example, show you products you’ve recently viewed
  • Location, IP address, and browser type: we’ll use this for purposes like estimating taxes and shipping
  • Shipping address: we’ll ask you to enter this so we can, for instance, estimate shipping before you place an order, and send you the order!

When you purchase from us, we’ll ask you to provide information including your name, billing address, shipping address, email address, phone number, credit card/payment details, and optional account information like username and password. We’ll use this information for purposes, such as, to:

  • Send you information about your account and order
  • Respond to your requests, including refunds and complaints
  • Process payments and prevent fraud
  • Set up your account for our store
  • Comply with any legal obligations we have, such as calculating taxes
  • Improve our store offerings
  • Send you marketing messages, if you choose to receive them

If you create an account, we will store your name, address, email, and phone number, which will be used to populate the checkout for future orders.

We generally store information about you for as long as we need the information for the purposes for which we collect and use it, and we are not legally required to continue to keep it. For example, we will store order information for 2 years for tax and accounting purposes. This includes your name, email address, and billing and shipping addresses.

We will also store comments or reviews if you choose to leave them.

We acknowledge you have the right to access and change the Personal Data we collect and process. If you wish to access or correct, amend, or delete Personal Data, please send us an email at info@habsns.com.

Minors / Children

The service is intended for users over the age of eighteen, or children over sixteen who obtained parental consent.

Therefore, we do not intend and do not knowingly collect Personal Data from children under the age of sixteen (16) and do not wish to do so.

We reserve the right to request proof of age at any stage so that we can verify that minors under the age of sixteen (16) are not using the service.

If we learn that we collected Personal Data from minors under the age of thirteen (13) we will delete that data as quickly as possible.

If you have reasons to suspect that we collected Personal Data from minors under the age of sixteen (16), please notify us at info@habsns.com, and we will delete that personal data as quickly as possible.

We take appropriate measures to maintain the security and integrity of our service and prevent unauthorized access to it or use thereof through generally accepted industry standard technologies and internal procedures.

Please note, however, that there are inherent risks in the transmission of information over the Internet or other methods of electronic storage, and we cannot guarantee that unauthorized access or use will never occur.

We will comply with applicable law in the event of any breach of the security, confidentiality, or integrity of your Personal Data and will inform you of such breach if required by applicable law.

To the extent that we implement the required security measures under applicable law, we shall not be responsible or liable for unauthorized access, hacking, or other security intrusions or failure to store or the theft, deletion, corruption, destruction, damage, or loss of any data or information included in the personal data.

Complaints and Arbitration

If you feel or believe that your personal data rights were harmed in any way, you may contact our data protection officer at info@habsns.com, and lodge a complaint. Such complaints shall include how and why you believe your personal data rights were harmed, and the required evidence. Our data protection officer will respond to most complaints within 30 days and shall offer the required remedies.

We will resolve all complaints according to applicable regulations. We also agree to resolve all complaints and deal with disputes with the local data protection authorities.

This section does not limit your right to lodge a complaint with your respective data protection authority.

Merger, Transfer of Ownership

We may, in the future, merge, sell our operation or transfer the operation of the service to a third party. In such an event, the data would be used in accordance with the then-relevant privacy policy, where no change shall have a retroactive effect.
