4.9 Feedback Service Usabilla:
On this website we use the service "Usabilla for Websites" of Usabilla B.V. (Rokin 16, 1012 KR Amsterdam, Netherlands, hereafter "Usabilla"). Usabilla collects feedback from website visitors to enable us to analyze and improve the use of our website, as well as any errors that occur. When a user uses the feedback button displayed on the website, or another form of feedback, cookies are placed on his computer and the user's browser establishes a direct connection to the Usabilla server. Usabilla collects information such as device type and operating system and saves it in a usage profile. In addition, so-called custom variables are processed, which support us in the further optimization of the website and give us more information about background information. In the process, information such as the origin of the traffic (have you reached our website via a search engine or by entering the URL?) or the number of articles in the shopping cart are processed. We only process your data in anonymous form so that a personal reference cannot be produced. Further data, such as the e-mail address and details in the feedback text field that can be used to establish a personal reference, are only collected if you indicate these actively and voluntarily. The cookie is only set when the user clicks on the corresponding button. The legal basis for this data processing is Art. 6 para. 1 p. 1 lit. f) GDPR, as we have a legitimate interest in analyzing errors that occur and thus improving our website. If you decide to provide personal data, we store it for a period of 6 months and then delete it in accordance with data protection. You can then opt-out of the collection by deleting and blocking the cookie from your browser. However, this only applies until you click on a feedback button again. Further information can be found here https://usabilla.com/privacy
5. Security
We maintain administrative, technical and physical safeguards designed to assist us in protecting the personal information we collect against accidental, unlawful or unauthorized destruction, loss, alteration, access, disclosure or use. For example, we use Secure Sockets Layer encryption to protect certain of your purchase information while in transit.
Please note that no electronic transmission of information can be entirely secure. We cannot guarantee that the security measures we have in place to safeguard personal information will never be defeated or fail, or that those measures will always be sufficient or effective.
To further protect yourself, you should safeguard your Picanova account user name and password and not share that information with anyone. You should also sign off your account and close your browser window when you have finished your visit to our websites. Please note that we will never ask for your account user name or password via email.
If you believe that your interaction with Picanova is no longer secure (for example, if you suspect that the security of your account has been compromised), you must immediately notify us of the problem by contacting us in accordance with paragraph 9 ("Contact Us"). Note that if you choose to notify us via physical mail, this will delay the time it takes for us to respond to the problem.
6. Children's Privacy
We do not direct our websites to children under the age of thirteen. We require registered users of our website to be at least 18 years old. If we learn that a user is under 18 years of age, we will promptly delete any personal information that the individual has provided to us.

These linked third party websites are not under our control and we are not responsible for their content or privacy practices, or any link contained in any linked website.
