PERSONAL INFORMATION YOU PROVIDE TO US

Zahava LLC collects personal information that you voluntarily provide to us such as your name, email address, phone number, mailing address, credit card information, and other contact and demographic information ("Personal Information"). Zahava LLC may collect Personal Information in a variety of ways, including but not limited to, when you visit the Site or engage in the Service, register with the Site, place an order via the Service, subscribe to the Zahava NYC newsletter, and in connection with other activities, services, features or resources we make available on the Site.

Please note, you may refuse to supply Personal Information to the Site or the Service. However, in doing so it may prevent you from engaging in certain areas of the Site, such as the inability to use the Service to place an order. 

PERSONAL INFORMATION COLLECTED AUTOMATICALLY

Zahava LLC uses non-personally identifiable information, such as your IP address and the pages that you visit on the Site ("Aggregate Information"), to help diagnose problems with the Site and servers, to administer the Site, and to improve site-related services and features, and may use a third-party to do so.
