As a general policy, Sensational.com only collects personal information from you when you voluntarily provide it to us by: (1) placing an order; (2) registering on the Website; (3) contacting us (including our customer service representatives and other employees) by email, text, telephone or through any of the contact forms found on our website; and (4) completing any surveys. In connection with these activities, we may collect personal information, including, but not limited to, your name, physical address, e-mail address, telephone number, credit card number, credit card expiration date, other unique identifiers, website password, username, and other demographic information.

Non-Personal Information

As part of the standard operation of our Website and Internet servers, we may collect certain non-personal information from you including, but not limited to, your IP address, and the domain name from which you accessed the Website.

In addition, we may collect information about your browsing behavior, such as the date and time you visit our Website, the areas or pages of our Website that you visit, the amount of time you spend viewing our Website, the number of times you return to our Website, and other click-stream data.

Comments

When visitors leave comments on the site we collect the data shown in the comments form, and also the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent string to help spam detection.

An anonymized string created from your email address (also called a hash) may be provided to the Gravatar service to see if you are using it. The Gravatar service privacy policy is available here: https://automattic.com/privacy/. After approval of your comment, your profile picture is visible to the public in the context of your comment.

Media

If you upload images to the website, you should avoid uploading images with embedded location data (EXIF GPS) included. Visitors to the website can download and extract any location data from images on the website.

Cookies

If you leave a comment on our site you may opt-in to saving your name, email address and website in cookies. These are for your convenience so that you do not have to fill in your details again when you leave another comment. These cookies will last for one year.

If you have an account and you log in to this site, we will set a temporary cookie to determine if your browser accepts cookies. This cookie contains no personal data and is discarded when you close your browser.

If you edit or publish an article, an additional cookie will be saved in your browser. This cookie includes no personal data and simply indicates the post ID of the article you just edited. It expires after 1 day.

We may also use cookies to: (1) track and report your order to an affiliate Company so you may receive credit for your order, when applicable (the affiliate company may have also placed a cookie on your computer for this purpose); (2) conduct research to improve our content and services; (3) access your account when you login to the website and provide you with customized content, when applicable; and (4) require you to re-enter your password periodically to help prevent others from accidentally accessing your account information, when applicable.

How long we retain your data
