This Privacy Policy describes how your personal information is collected, used, processed, and shared when you visit or make a purchase from www.laughstoself.com (the “Site” or "Service").  By accessing or using our Services, you signify your understanding of the terms set out in this Privacy Policy.

 

PERSONAL INFORMATION WE COLLECT

When you visit the Site, we automatically collect certain information about your device, including information about your web browser, IP address, time zone, and some of the cookies that are installed on your device.

We collect Device Information using the following technologies: 

  • “Cookies” are data files that are placed on your device or computer and often include an anonymous unique identifier. For more information about cookies, and how to disable cookies, visit http://www.allaboutcookies.org.
