We are an online pet goods retailer focused on premium health monitoring and color changing cat litter and related pet care supplies. Protecting your personal privacy is a core priority for our brand. We only collect information that is necessary to operate our e-commerce store, fulfill your orders, process payments, provide customer support, maintain your subscription services, prevent fraudulent transactions, improve our website functionality, and communicate important order and brand updates to you. We do not collect sensitive personal data unnecessarily, and we maintain technical and organizational security measures to safeguard your personal information against unauthorized access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction.
Types of Information We Collect
Personal Identifiable Information
Personal identifiable information is data that can be used to identify you as an individual. We collect this type of information when you voluntarily provide it to us. This information includes your full legal name, email address, physical shipping address, billing address, telephone number, account password (stored in encrypted form), order history, subscription preferences, and any messages you send to our support team through email or website contact forms. When you complete checkout, payment information such as credit card details is processed through secure third-party payment processors. We do not permanently store your full credit card numbers on our own website servers. Our payment providers handle payment card data under strict industry security standards.
Non-Personal & Automatically Collected Information
When you browse our website, our servers automatically collect non-personal technical information. This includes your device type, operating system, web browser type and browser version, internet protocol (IP) address, website pages you view, length of time spent on each page, website entry and exit points, clickstream activity, referral website address, device language settings, and other anonymous browsing statistics. We gather this information through cookies, web beacons, log files, and similar tracking technologies. This anonymous data helps us analyze website traffic patterns, identify website usability problems, optimize page layout, test marketing campaigns, understand visitor preferences, improve site performance, and troubleshoot technical errors for our website. This information cannot be used on its own to identify a specific individual.
Cookie Technology
Cookies are small text data files saved onto your computer, mobile phone, or other internet connected device when you visit a website. We use first-party cookies and limited third-party cookies on prettylittersus.it.com. Functional cookies are essential to operate our store, maintain your shopping cart contents, keep your user account logged in, remember your checkout preferences, and save your subscription settings. Analytical cookies help us measure website visitor behavior to improve our site experience. Marketing cookies may be used to serve relevant brand advertisements across external platforms. You can modify your web browser settings to reject cookies, delete existing cookies, or notify you when a cookie is attempting to save data to your device. Disabling cookies may break critical website functions such as shopping cart operation, account login, and checkout flow.
How We Use Your Collected Information
We use your personal identifiable information for a defined set of purposes. First and foremost, we use your name, shipping address, contact details, and order data to process your purchase, pack your cat litter order, arrange shipping, send shipping confirmations, provide tracking information, handle returns and refunds, and manage your monthly subscription shipments. We use your email address to reply to support messages you send to press@prettylittersus.it.com, send order status alerts, notify you of return updates, communicate subscription reminders, and share requested product information. We also use your contact information to send optional marketing emails, newsletters, discount promotions, and new product announcements. Every marketing email we send includes a clear unsubscribe link, and you may opt out of promotional messages at any time without affecting your ability to place orders or receive transactional order emails.
We use your personal data to verify identity, detect and block fraudulent orders, prevent unauthorized payment transactions, protect our website and customers from scams, and enforce our website terms and policies. We analyze aggregated non-personal browsing data to optimize website navigation, test product page layouts, improve product descriptions, refine our marketing strategy, and understand what products and content resonate most with our visitors. We may use your information to comply with applicable legal obligations, respond to valid legal requests, resolve disputes, and enforce our contractual rights. We will never sell your personal identifiable information to unrelated third-party marketing companies for commercial spam purposes.
Information Sharing and Disclosure
We only share your personal information with trusted third-party service providers who perform essential business functions for us, and these partners are contractually required to protect your data and only use your information to complete services on our behalf. Our permitted third-party partners include payment processing companies, shipping carriers, warehouse fulfillment providers, website hosting providers, email delivery platforms, fraud detection services, and website analytics vendors. These service providers can only access your personal data to carry out tasks assigned by us. They are not allowed to reuse your data for their own independent marketing or other unrelated purposes.
We may release your personal information if required by law, court order, governmental investigation, or valid legal subpoena. We may also disclose your data when necessary to protect our legal rights, defend against claims, protect the safety of our customers, staff, website, or the general public, investigate fraud, or enforce our website terms and policies. In the event of a business merger, acquisition, asset sale, or company reorganization, customer information may be transferred as part of the business assets, and you will receive proper notice before your personal data becomes subject to a different privacy policy. We will not share your private data with outside parties for unauthorized marketing.
Data Retention Period
We keep your personal data only for as long as reasonably necessary to fulfill the purposes for which we collected it. For customers who place orders, we retain your order, shipping, and support records for the period required to complete your transaction, handle returns or refunds, resolve customer disputes, maintain subscription services, and satisfy applicable tax and record-keeping legal requirements. After the retention period expires, your personal data will be securely deleted or anonymized. If you maintain a registered user account on our site, we keep your account data until you request account deletion. When you submit a request to delete your account, we will erase your personal identifiable information, except records we must preserve for legal, tax, or dispute resolution purposes. Non-personal aggregated analytics data may be stored indefinitely in anonymized form.
Data Security Measures
We implement industry standard technical, administrative, and physical security safeguards to protect your personal information. Our website uses secure encrypted HTTPS connections for all page traffic, especially during account login and checkout payment submission. Sensitive data transfers are encrypted. We maintain access controls so only authorized internal team members can access customer personal information, and staff access is limited strictly to job-related needs. Our systems receive regular security monitoring and maintenance to identify potential vulnerabilities. Even with robust security precautions, no online data transmission or digital storage system can be guaranteed to be one hundred percent secure against all possible threats. If we discover a security breach that compromises your personal data, we will follow required legal notification procedures.
Your Privacy Rights
Depending on your location, you may hold certain consumer privacy rights regarding your personal data. These rights can include the right to request access to the personal information we hold about you, the right to request correction of inaccurate or incomplete data, the right to request deletion of your personal data, the right to restrict or object to certain data processing activities, and data portability rights to receive your personal information in a machine-readable format. If you wish to exercise any of your privacy rights, send your written request to press@prettylittersus.it.com. We will verify your identity before processing your privacy request to protect your information from unauthorized access.
Children’s Privacy
Our website, products, and services are intended for use by adults aged eighteen years old or older. We do not knowingly collect personal identifiable information from children under the age of eighteen. If you believe we have unintentionally collected personal data from a child under 18, please contact us immediately at press@prettylittersus.it.com, and we will take steps to remove that information from our systems.
Policy Updates
We can revise this Privacy Policy at any time. When we make changes, the updated version will be posted on this Privacy Policy page, and the revised policy takes effect upon publication. We recommend reviewing this Privacy Policy occasionally. Questions about privacy can be sent to press@prettylittersus.it.com.
