In accordance with applicable law, when you contact us to make a general inquiry about us or our business, you may not have to identify yourself or provide any Personal Information. In some jurisdictions you may notify us that you wish to deal with us using a pseudonym. However, in such circumstances, we may not be able to provide you with the information or assistance you require. For example, the Personal Information we collect from you is required to enter a contract with Pelican, for Pelican to perform under the contract, to provide you with requested information about us, our product, or our services.

HOW WE USE YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION

We use and disclose your Personal Information as expressly set forth in this Notice or with your consent for the following reasons:

For marketing and advertising purposes: We use and disclose your Personal Information to send you information about our products, services, and new offerings; send newsletters, advertisements, or other promotional communications about our Sites, products, and services; and administer surveys, sweepstakes, promotions, and contests using your information; learn about customer trends and interests; and personalize digital content.

In response to law enforcement or legal requests or requirements: We will use and disclose your Personal Information with organizations or individuals outside of Pelican if we have a good-faith belief that access, use, preservation or disclosure of the information is reasonably necessary to meet any applicable law, regulation, subpoena, legal process or enforceable governmental request; enforce applicable Terms and Conditions, including investigation of potential violations; detect, prevent, or otherwise address fraud, security or technical issues; and protect against harm to the rights, property or safety of Pelican, our users, customers or the public as required or permitted by law.

In connection with a transfer in the event of a corporate sale or change of control: If the ownership of all or substantially all of our business changes or we otherwise transfer assets relating to our business or our Sites to a third party, such as by merger, acquisition, bankruptcy proceeding or otherwise, we may transfer your Personal Information to the new owner. In such a case, unless permitted otherwise by applicable law, your information would remain subject to the promises made in the applicable privacy policy unless you agree differently.

For auditing purposes: We will use and disclose your Personal Information to perform audits related to a current interaction with you and concurrent transactions, including, but not limited to, counting ad impressions to unique visitors, verifying positioning and quality of ad impressions, and auditing compliance with applicable law.

In connection with these uses, we disclose your Personal Information to our trusted vendors, service providers, and business partners (including our subsidiaries and affiliates). These organizations will have access to your Personal Information to provide these services to us, but—when this occurs—we implement reasonable contractual and technical protections to limit their use of your Personal Information.

Financial Incentives

In some jurisdictions, we may offer you certain discounts, loyalty, or reward programs, such as our military and first responder program or one-time discounts when signing up for our marketing materials. These programs may be considered financial incentives under applicable law, which can result in different prices for our products. Participation in these programs is voluntary and require your opt-in consent, which you can withdraw at any time by Contacting Us using the information provided below. We require minimal Personal Information to provide the discounts to eligible participants. The value we receive from our discount programs includes the profits, good will, and reputation generated by these programs. At the time of offering any financial incentive, we will provide a summary of the incentive and further information relating to the material terms.

LAWFUL BASIS FOR PROCESSING YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION

As required by applicable law, we have a lawful basis for each of our processing activities (except when an exception applies as described below), including:

By using our Site or otherwise providing us your Personal Information, you consent to our collection, use, and sharing of your Personal Information as described in this Notice. If you do not consent to this Notice, please do not use the Site, or provide us with your Personal Information.
Legitimate Interests. We will process your Personal Information as necessary for our legitimate interests which are balanced against your interests and rights and freedoms, and we do not process your Personal Information if your interests or rights and freedoms outweigh our legitimate interests. Our legitimate interests include facilitating communication between Pelican and you; improving our Sites; safeguarding our IT infrastructure and intellectual property; detecting and preventing fraud and other crimes; promoting and marketing our business; and developing our products and services.
To Fulfill Our Obligations to You under our Contract. We process your Personal Information to fulfill our obligations to you pursuant to our contract with you to deliver our products and services; and
As Required by Law. We may also process your Personal Information when we are required or permitted to by law; to comply with government inspections, audits, and other valid requests from government or other public authorities; to respond to certain legal processes, such as lawfully-issued subpoenas; or as necessary for us to protect our interests or otherwise pursue our legal rights and remedies (for instance, when necessary to prevent or detect fraud, attacks against our network, or other criminal and tortious activities), defend litigation, and manage complaints or claims. To the extent that your Personal Information is not relevant to any of these legal processes, we will use our best efforts to remove or otherwise protect your Personal Information from disclosure in response to these requests.

HOW WE DISCLOSE OR SHARE YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION

In the preceding 12 months, we have disclosed the following for business purposes: Identifiers; Commercial Information; Financial Information; Internet or Network Activity; and Sensory Information. We do not disclose or share your sensitive Personal Information for purposes than those already identified. We disclose your Personal Information for a business purpose to the following categories of service providers and contractors:

Service Providers engaged by us to facilitate services such as order fulfillment and payment processing.
Contractors that provide consultancy and advisory services, such as our third-party auditors.
Analytics and Marketing Partners, such as social media and performance marketing providers, for the purpose of marketing services and products you may want.
Entities Involved in a Business Sale or Similar Transaction where we may buy, merge, or partner with other companies.

We do not sell your Personal Information for money. However, some laws broadly define “sale” or “sell,” and certain disclosure activities may, therefore, qualify even though we do not receive financial compensation for the exchange. For example, we share Personal Information with our Analytics and Marketing Partners to gain insights into preferences about our products and services, and for sharing advertisements with you based on Personal Information we collect from your activities over time (also known as cross-contextual behavioral advertising or targeted advertising). In the preceding 12 months, we have “sold” or “shared”, as those terms are broadly defined by law, identifiers, commercial information, and Internet or other similar network activity to analytics and marketing partners to learn about customer trends and interests, personalize your digital content, and deliver marketing communications and advertising.

If you are a California or Virginia resident, you may opt-out of the selling or sharing of your Personal Information by following the “Do Not Sell or Share My Personal Information” link.
