Cookies

This Site is cookie-enabled to give you a more customized user experience. A cookie is a small piece of information that a website can store on a computer and later use to recognize a user. A purpose of cookies is to enhance your ability to receive the information you want. We use two types of cookies to enhance the experience of users: session cookies and persistent cookies. A session cookie expires when a user closes the browser in which this website was viewed. A persistent cookie expires on a pre-determined date. Users can personalize their browser settings to reject cookies, although certain features of the Site may not function as intended.

Sharing Information                                                                   

The GLSEN Shop may share your personal information, including your name, address, email address, and data about transactions conducted on our Site with third parties, including third-party advertising partners. The GLSEN Shop uses third party service providers to fulfill orders made through the Site. We do not share payment information, except with service providers, and only for order fulfillment.

From time to time, we may send you information from carefully selected marketing partners we think you might find interesting. The GLSEN Shop is a project of GLSEN, and we may share personal information with other third parties including affiliates and subsidiaries of GLSEN, for marketing purposes.

If we or some or all of our assets are acquired by another organization, that organization will possess the information collected by us, and it will assume the rights and obligations regarding your information as described in this Privacy Statement. 

We may disclose personal information or other data to comply with law or legal requirements, enforce or apply our Terms of Service and other agreements, or protect our rights, property, or safety of our users, or others.

Third Party Links

For your convenience, this Site may contain certain hyperlinks to other websites. We make no promises or guarantees regarding data collection on the hyperlinked pages that are not operated by the GLSEN Shop or GLSEN. We recommend that you read the privacy policy/statement for each site you visit.

Your Choices

We may use the personal information we collect from you to provide you with opportunities to offer you products and services that may be of interest to you. If you would like to opt out of future promotional materials from us, you may indicate this preference by following the unsubscribe instructions at the end of such email communications or by contacting us at https://shop.glsen.org/pages/contact-us.

If you would no longer like to receive offers from our marketing partners, you can unsubscribe by following the unsubscribe link located at the bottom of each email communication. 

Interest Based Advertising

We may partner with third-party advertising providers to serve ads on our behalf on non-affiliated third party sites. Some of those ads may be personalized, meaning that they are intended to be relevant to you based on information we or the online advertising network serving the ad collect about your online activities here and elsewhere over time. For example, anonymous information collected across multiple sites that you visit over time may enable the ad network to predict your preferences and show you ads that are most likely to be of interest to you. Please note that we do not share any information that identifies you personally with the third party service providers who serve ads on our behalf.

To opt out of these types of ads, please visit the Network Advertising Initiative for information about how to opt-out of interest-based advertising by their members. See http://www.networkadvertising.org for general information about the NAI and http://www.networkadvertising.org/managing/opt_out.asp for the opt-out page. You may also visit http://www.aboutads.info/consumers/ to learn about online behavioral advertising and how to opt-out from online behavioral ads served by some or all participating companies.
