YOUR CHOICES ABOUT YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION

Inquiries concerning the collection and deletion of Your personal information.

We understand that You may have certain questions about COHEN FASHION OPTICAL’s access and use of information that We have collected. Under some circumstances, You may be able to opt-out of Our continued collection or use of Your personal information, and/or seek access to or deletion of personal information that We have collected about You in the past.

There are circumstances when COHEN FASHION OPTICAL will not be able to comply with such requests. For example, We may deny a request if We determine, in good faith, that We should not comply because: to do so would violate or conflict with  COHEN FASHION OPTICAL’s  legal obligations, including, but not limited to, legal obligations as to the preservation and non-disclosure of financial, medical or personal health information; the information is the privileged, proprietary or  confidential information of COHEN FASHION OPTICAL  or someone other than the person making the request; the identity or authority of the person making the request cannot be confirmed; compliance with the request would compromise the privacy or legal rights of others; the burden or expense of responding would be disproportionate to the requesting individual’s privacy risk; the information is commercially necessary for Us to complete transactions or provide products or services that the User requested; or to do so would impede COHEN FASHION OPTICAL’s detection, correction or prevention of any security incident, intentional or non-intentional interference with the Website, products or services.

Additionally, under some circumstances, even if You opt-out, non-personal information regarding your activities on the Website, and/or information from third-party websites for non-interest-based advertising purposes may be collected and used to determine the effectiveness of the advertisements.
