Last Updated April 5, 2023

At Danner your privacy is very important to us.

The information below is designed to inform you of what personal information we collect, why we collect such information, how we use the personal information we collect, and the choices we offer, including how to access and update information. Any reference to our “Site” includes our danner.com website, mobile applications and other software, and any reference to our “Services” includes our Site, services provided at our physical stores, customer service phone line and other shopping or product services offered by Danner. Definitions contained in the Site's Terms also apply to this Privacy Policy, which is incorporated in and made a part of the Terms. Your access or use of the Site constitutes your acceptance of and agreement to this Privacy Policy.

The provisions of this Privacy Policy may be updated from time to time by Danner. When a revision is made we will revise the "last updated" date on this page. We may make additional features, functionality, offers, activities, or events available to you subject to additional or different privacy rules that we disclose in connection with those opportunities.

You should check this Privacy Policy frequently for any such changes, but in any case your continued access or use of the Site will constitute acceptance of any modifications.

The Services are not directed at children, and Danner will not knowingly collect any personal information from any person under age 13. If we learn that we have collected personal information from a child under the age of 13, we will delete that data from our systems.

Controller of Personal Information

Any personal information provided to, or collected by Danner through the Services is controlled by Danner.

What We Collect

Information You Give Us

Danner receives and stores any information you enter on the Site (for example, your address when you place an order or your email address when you subscribe to our emails or your alternate addresses if you enter them when you create an account), or provide to us in any other manner, including when you visit our stores, call our customer service line, or send us e-mail. Danner uses the information that you provide for such purposes as shipping your order, emailing you shipment tracking information, posting your reviews, sending you direct mail, and communicating with you. Of course, you can choose not to provide such information, but then you might not be able to access or use portions of the Services.

We value your comments, product and site reviews, feedback, testimonials, etc., which help us improve our services, products and marketing. By making such submissions to us, you assign your rights in the submissions to us as described in the "Submissions" section of our Terms.

Information We Get From 3rd Parties

Additional information may be received from third party marketing partners, such as co-ops, that might be used to help better the marketing of products and services.

Automated Information Collection

We may use, or permit our business partners to use, the following automated information collection technologies for the purposes described below:

Cookies: A cookie is a small file that resides on your computer, mobile phone, or other device, and allows us or our business partners to recognize your device when you return to our Site and record information about your usage of our Site.

We use cookies for five general purposes as follows:

Essential Operational: Cookies are necessary to allow us to operate our Services. For example, they are required to help you access secure areas (such as your account pages) and to use features like our shopping basket.

Performance and Functionality: Cookies help us enhance the performance and functionality of our Services. For example, cookies help us identify you or your device when you come back to our Service so that you do not have to login to see your shopping basket.

Analytics, Customization and Security: We use analytics and customization cookies, including third party cookies, to gather information on how our Services are being used by our visitors and to measure how popular our marketing campaigns are. We use the data we get to help customize our Services for you and make the content you see as relevant as possible. We also use the data we collect to help identify and prevent fraud, and to track visits from our affiliates or partners.

Targeting/advertising: Cookies help us to customize and regulate (e.g., by capping the frequency of) the advertisements you receive, provide you with tailored offers, and measure the effectiveness of our advertising. For instance, if we target an ad campaign through an online advertising network, we might use cookies on our Site to estimate how many viewers of the ad later visited our Site – and therefore, how effective the ad campaign was. Or, we might “retarget” visitors to our Site by providing them offers (whether through online display media, email or direct mail) similar to those they viewed or expressed interest in during their Site visits. See the section below titled Interest Based Advertising for more information.

Social networking cookies: Cookies allow visitors to share our pages and content through third-party social networking websites.

Website and mobile application log files: We may make use of log files created automatically with access and use of our Services for analytics purposes.

Tracking Images: We may use tracking images (such as GIFs), which are small image files that we embed into our e-mails, to learn whether you opened or forwarded the e-mail or clicked on any of the content. This information tells us about our e-mail’s effectiveness and helps us ensure that we’re delivering information that you find interesting.

Local Storage: We use local storage (such as HTML5 or Flash) to provide you a rich web experience and to provide you with relevant content and advertising.

Other technologies: We may make use of other tracking technologies similar to the ones described above for similar purposes described above.

Third Party Servers: You may also get cookies from advertisers on the Site sent by third-party servers. This is a standard practice on most websites that include advertising. Danner does not control, and is not responsible for, cookies from our advertisers.

Interest Based Advertising: Third parties may use cookies and other technologies to collect information about your online activities over time and across different websites, including our Site. Third parties we work with may also use other “device-graphing” information in order to make inferences and connections about our customers and potential customers across various devices – such as mobile phones, tablets and browsers. (These companies may, for instance, make inferences that devices seen at a common IP address are used by common users.) Companies that we share information with may use the information we provide to them, often in combination with their existing information, to provide you with more relevant advertising tailored to your interests. We also may obtain information for this purpose from third-party websites on which our ads are served. The information our ad networks may collect on our behalf includes data about your visits to websites that serve our advertisements, such as the pages or advertisements you view and the actions you take on the websites. This data collection takes place both on our websites and on third-party websites that participate in these ad networks.

How We Use Your Personal Information

Personal information provided by you or obtained through the Services may be used by us (unless otherwise restricted by law) to, among other things:

Verify your identity and respond to your requests for information
Communicate with you by email, regular mail, telephone, or mobile devices, about products or services that may be of interest to you either from us or from other third parties;

We generally store personal information as long as reasonably necessary to fulfill the purposes described in this Privacy Policy, as we determine is necessary for business records, and as required under applicable law. We may transfer your personal information from the United States to other countries or regions in connection with storage and processing of data, fulfilling your requests, and operating our business. By providing any information to us, you consent to such transfer, storage, and processing.

How We Disclose Your Information

We may share your personal information with:

Our affiliates, parents and subsidiaries
Social media sites and with our reviews provider with information you post for such purposes
Support services providers to assist with activities such as online marketing, email marketing, mobile marketing, analytics, web hosting, call center/chat support, payment processors, tax calculation services, data enhancement services, fraud prevention providers or shipping service providers, each of whom may perform services on our behalf.
Select third party marketing partners for print marketing purposes, which may include third parties whose products or services we believe you may be interested. These third parties may also share your information with others. These third parties may use your information for their own marketing purposes or the marketing purposes of others. This may include the delivery of interest-based advertising.

We may share your information: (1) when we believe in good faith that it is necessary to comply with any applicable law, regulation, legal process, or governmental request, such as lawful requests by public authorities, including to meet national security or law enforcement requirements; (2) in order to investigate, prevent or take action regarding potential illegal activities, suspected fraud, situations involving potential threats to the physical safety of any person or situations involving potential violations of our Terms and Conditions or other policies; (3) to other companies and organizations for fraud protection and risk reduction; and (4) to enforce any agreement we have with you.

We may also share your information as specifically provided in our Terms; and/or as you may otherwise agree.

In addition, in the event Danner transfers some or all of its assets to another entity, or is acquired by a third party, information will likely be one of the transferred assets, but should remain subject to existing privacy terms as required by applicable law, statute or regulation.

Public Forums

Please remember that information you post to the Website itself, including User Submissions, will be public information, available for access, use and disclosure by other visitors to the Site. Danner has no obligation to monitor, moderate, screen or otherwise be responsible for any content posted by you or any other third party to the Site, or for use or disclosure of such content. YOU SHOULD EXERCISE CAUTION WHEN DECIDING TO DISCLOSE YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION ON ANY WEBSITE.

Danner Partner Policy

From time to time, Danner may send you email offers or information on behalf of Danner partners. When you "opt-in" to receive these offers, you consent to use of your personal information for such emails, and disclosure of your personal information to such third party partners.

Marketing Choice/Opt-Out
Where permitted by applicable law, we want to communicate with you on our marketing initiatives, but only if you want to continue to hear from us.

E-mail promotions: To opt out of receiving e-mail promotions that we send you: (1) select "unsubscribe" on our subscription status page and enter the requested information or follow the unsubscribe instructions in any of our promotional emails; or (2) write to Customer Resource Center at 17634 NE Airport Way, Portland OR 97230 (a "postal request"). To opt out of telephone promotions, you can tell us when we call you or you can send us a postal request. To opt out of postal mail promotions, please send us a postal request. Opting out of communication with us does not affect our communications with you via telephone or email related to your orders with us or other transactional emails.

Danner catalogs: You may update your catalog preferences or opt out entirely by emailing us at customerservice@danner.com with your full name and address. Because catalogs are planned in advance, you may still receive mailings that have already been initiated when we received your request.

Cookies and Tracking Technologies: You are always free to decline cookies if your browser permits; although, by declining the use of cookies you may not be able to use certain features on, and significant portions of, our Site. Also, because information we obtain may be combined, we may still be able to identify your web browser, computer or mobile device when you access our Services even if you disable cookies. Some browsers incorporate a “Do Not Track” (DNT) feature that, when turned on, signals to websites and online services that you do not wish to be tracked. Because there is not yet an accepted standard for how to respond to browser DNT signals, we do not currently respond to them. For more information about the use of cookies and how to block them, visit www.allaboutcookies.org, www.youronlinechoices.eu (Europe) or www.aboutads.info/choices (United States).

Interest Based Advertising: You may opt out of receiving personalized advertisements from advertising companies that are members of the Network Advertising Initiative or who subscribe to the Digital Advertising Alliance’s Self-Regulatory Principles for Online Behavioral Advertising by visiting http://www.networkadvertising.org/choices and www.aboutads.info/choices.

Where required by law, we obtain your prior opt-in consent at the time of data collection for the processing of (i) personal information for marketing purposes and (ii) personal information deemed sensitive pursuant to applicable law.

If you visit one of our Sites and decide, for example, to purchase a product to be shipped outside of the United States, you may interface with a third party service (currently BorderFree). Information you provide to such third party will be subject to such third party's privacy policy, terms, and conditions.

We are not responsible for, and cannot always ensure, the information collection practices or privacy policies of other websites maintained by third parties, or our service providers where you submit your personal information directly to such service providers.

We urge you to read the privacy and security policies.

Security

While we strive to protect your personal information, Danner cannot ensure, and does not warrant, the security of any information. Communication via the Internet is not failsafe, and there is always a possibility that data may be lost, or intercepted by unauthorized parties during such transmission or after receipt by Danner.
