Websites or Services:

By “personal information“, we mean any information about an individual from which that person can be identified. We collect personal information about you in several different ways depending upon the services you use and information you choose to provide. We collect your information in the following ways:

When you visit our website, we or companies acting on our behalf may collect technical data about your equipment, browsing actions and patterns. This may include your internet protocol (IP address), login data, browser type and version, time zone setting and country location, browser plug-in types, operating system and platform. We may automatically collect your precise location when you access our apps or our websites. We also collect information about your general location, using your zip code or postcode and internet protocol (IP) address. We collect this data by using cookies, server logs and other similar technologies. We may also receive technical data about you if you visit other websites that employ our cookies. Please see our Ad and Cookie Notice for further details.

• If you place an order with us, we will collect your name, address, telephone number, email address and payment information.
• If you simply subscribe to our marketing product communications, offers, competitions and/or product tips without purchasing a product, we will only collect your email address and phone number based on your choice. We may use your email address for additional advertising purposes with our partners.
• If you contact our customer service contact center, your call, email, or chat may be recorded /stored for quality and training purposes.
• If you provide feedback via our post contact survey, your results will be stored to help improve our services.

As part of these activities, we may also collect personal information that includes your gender, age range, geographical location, size of your household, whether you have pets or children and use social media. Whilst this information on its own may not directly identify you, it could do so when pieced together.
• If you interact with us on social media, what you post on Facebook, LinkedIn, Instagram and Twitter, sometimes includes data that has been put online and is publicly available. We aim to anonymize data collected through these platforms, but it is not always possible and therefore we may collect your personal information. These online and social media sites are governed by the privacy policy of the company providing the feature, not by our Privacy Policy. You should carefully review those privacy policies before you use these sites to make sure that you are happy with how your personal information is being collected and shared (see the section below ‘Links to third party websites’).
• In connection with your application for employment with us, we will collect, store, and use your cover letter and/or resume, and any information you provide to us during an interview. As you progress through the recruitment process, we may collect further information to support your suitability for the role including interview notes and behavioral assessments. If we make you a conditional offer, then we will also need to collect proof of your identity, right to work, qualifications achieved, criminal record declaration, offences, credit history and references.
• We may receive aggregated demographic data that provide insights into the relative affluence of households from third party data providers who help us to give you a more relevant experience by enabling us to provide offers, and to give you more relevant services and advice.
• If you visit our office, you will be recorded on Closed Circuit Television (CCTV) which is in operation for security and crime prevention/detection purposes. You will also be asked to sign a visitor’s book for Security and Health & Safety purposes.
• Using the other pieces of personal information collected about you, we may draw inferences about you, reflecting what we believe to be your preferences, characteristics and predispositions.

Registered products and apps:

Some of our products are equipped with smart technology, are Internet-enabled, or may be operated through a SharkNinja mobile app, each of which may allow the product to transmit data wirelessly to SharkNinja.

We may collect function and use statistics, such as battery life and health, number of missions, the device identifier, Internet protocol (IP), and cleaning map of the environment accessible to certain models of the connected products.

When you register your product with a SharkNinja mobile app, the app may collect and maintain information about the product and app usage, feature usage, in-app transactions, technical specifications, crashes, and other information about how you use your smart product and/or the app.

Our smart products do not transmit this information unless you register your device online, consent to the use of such information and connect to WiFi or connect to the Internet via another method. It is possible to use our smart products without WiFi transmission simply by disconnecting your WiFi from the device or by never connecting it at all.
