How We Collect and Use Your Information
Personal Information. We use Personal Information primarily for internal business purposes, such as providing, maintaining, evaluating and improving the Website and the services offered through the Website, fulfilling requests for information, producing and shipping the products that you order, and providing customer support. For example, if you create an account with us, we will use the information that you provide us to communicate with you.

TEELASV may use your Personal Information for targeted marketing and customer analysis by linking your information with third-party demographic and household data to provide a more personalized service.
Google Analytics. We use Google Analytics to help analyze how users use the Website. Google Analytics uses “cookies,” which are text files placed on your computer, to collect standard Internet log information and visitor behavior information in an anonymous form. The information generated by the cookie about your use of the Website (including IP address) is transmitted to Google. This information is then used to evaluate visitors’ use of the Website and to compile statistical reports on Website activity for TEELASV.

Cookies. Please view our Cookie Policy for more information.
Pixel Tags. We may use “pixel tags,” also known as “web beacons,” which are small graphic files that allow us to monitor the use of the Website. A pixel tag is a type of technology placed on a website or within the body of an email for the purpose of tracking activity on websites, or when emails are opened or accessed, and is often used in combination with cookies. A pixel tag can collect information such as the IP (Internet Protocol) address of the computer that downloaded the page on which the tag appears; the URL of the page on which the pixel tag appears; the time the page containing the pixel tag was viewed; the type of browser that fetched the pixel tag; and the identification number of any cookie on the computer previously placed by that server.
Microsoft Clarity. We partner with Microsoft Clarity and Microsoft Advertising to capture how you use and interact with our website through behavioral metrics, heatmaps, and session replay to improve and market our products/services. Website usage data is captured using first and third-party cookies and other tracking technologies to determine the popularity of products/services and online activity. Additionally, we use this information for site optimization, fraud/security purposes, and advertising. For more information about how Microsoft collects and uses your data, visit the Microsoft Privacy Statement.
How We Share Your Information with Third Parties
Sub-Processors, Service Providers, and Online Partners. We contract with various third parties who help us provide, maintain, and improve the Website and the services. For example, we use a third party to process payments made to us, and may subcontract production, fulfillment, analytics, reporting or other operations. We may also contract with online partners to help manage, monitor, and optimize our Website, and to help us measure the effectiveness of our advertising, communications and how visitors use the Website. A complete list of sub-processors TEELASV currently uses can be requested by emailing https://vaelderlaw.com/contact-us/.
Disclosure to Unaffiliated Third Parties. We may disclose your Personal Information to respond to legal requirements, to protect or enforce our rights and policies, to protect or enforce the rights of a third party, to prevent harm to a person or as required or permitted by law (including, without limitation, to comply with a subpoena, court order, or lawful requests made by public authorities, including national security and law enforcement bodies).
Disclosure of Non-Personal Information. We may disclose your de-identified information, in aggregate form, to potential strategic partners, advertisers, investors, customers, and others.
Internet Advertising. We may use third party service providers to serve ads on our behalf across the Internet and sometimes on the Website.

Mobile Messaging (SMS). Please see our SMS Terms and Conditions for more information.
Disclosure to Successors. If we sell our business or one of our brands, we may transfer or sell 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.
Your Consent. In addition to the sharing described elsewhere in this Privacy Policy, we may share Personal Information with companies, organizations or individuals outside of TEELASV if we obtain your consent to do so.
Basis for Collecting Your Information
TEELASV collects and processes your data to provide the products and services you have requested or purchased, and to monitor, evaluate and improve our business and the products and services we provide. We use your Personal Information to communicate with you concerning products and services you have requested or purchased, as well as other products and services we offer that you may be interested in. TEELASV has a legitimate interest (except as where otherwise noted, such as in the cookie consent banner or as necessary to fulfill a contract with a user) described above for processing personal information, including providing the Website, requested services, and improving the Website and services.
Data Storage and Retention
Your Personal Information is stored by TEELASV on its servers, and on the servers of the cloud-based database management services it engages, located in the United States. TEELASV retains data for the duration of the customer’s business relationship with TEELASV, for the purposes indicated in this Privacy Policy, or for such other period as may be permitted or required by law, whichever is longest.
How We Protect Your Personal Information
Personal Information. We use industry standard physical, technical, and administrative security measures and safeguards to protect the confidentiality and security of your personal information. When you enter information on our registration or order forms, that information is encrypted using Transport Layer Security (“TLS”) technology. However, since the Internet is not a 100% secure environment, we cannot guarantee the security of any information you transmit to us.
Website Content. It is your responsibility to protect the security of your account and login information. Please note that content that you store or transmit through the Website or services, or e-mails and other communications you send to us, are not encrypted. You should not assume that your content will be kept private, and we strongly advise you not to communicate any confidential or sensitive information through these means.
Making Changes to Your Personal Information
If you have questions about your Personal Information or need to update it, you can email us at https://vaelderlaw.com/contact-us/. If you close your account, we will no longer use your online account information or share it with third parties. We may, however, retain a copy of the information for archival purposes and to avoid identity theft or fraud and for other legitimate business purposes. You can opt-out of receiving marketing or promotional e-mails from TEELASV by going to the account management section of the Website, or by using the opt-out or unsubscribe feature contained in the marketing or promotional e-mails.
We also provide you the opportunity to opt-out of having your information used for certain purposes. For example, if you purchase a product but do not wish to receive additional marketing material from us, you can indicate your preference on our order form.
General Data Protection Regulation (“GDPR”) Compliance
The GDPR provides certain rights to online users located in European Union countries (“EU Data Subjects”). An EU Data Subject has the right to access or rectify their Personal Information that TEELASV processes. Subject to certain exceptions, an EU Data Subject has the right to request that TEELASV erase that Personal Information or restrict the processing of it. When technically feasible, TEELASV will, at the EU Data Subject’s request, provide that person’s Personal Information to them or transmit it directly to another data controller. EU Data Subjects also have the right to file a complaint with the appropriate data protection authority. EU Data Subjects may exercise their rights, and ask any other related questions, by emailing https://vaelderlaw.com/.
To comply with the GDPR’s requirements, TEELASV collects and transfers EU Data Subjects’ Personal Information to other countries outside the European Union only: (1) consistent with an adequacy decision under Article 45 of the GDPR; (2) pursuant to suitable safeguards; or (3) consistent with another permissible transfer mechanism where appropriate. More information concerning these transfers is available by contacting https://vaelderlaw.com/contact-us/.
Third Party Websites
You may be able to access third-party websites directly from the Website. This Privacy Policy does not apply when you access third-party websites. We cannot control how third parties may use any information you disclose to them, so you should carefully review the privacy policy of any third-party website you visit.
If we intend to disclose your information to a third party in a manner that is not set forth in this Privacy Policy, you will be notified so that you can make an informed choice about sharing your information with that third party.
California Privacy Rights
Shine the Light. Under California’s “Shine the Light” law, California residents who provide Personal Information in obtaining products or services for personal, family, or household use are entitled to request and obtain from us once a calendar year information about the customer information we shared, if any, with other businesses for their own direct marketing uses. If applicable, this information would include the categories of customer information and the names and addresses of those businesses with which we shared that information for the immediately prior calendar year (e.g. requests made in 2020 will receive information regarding 2019 sharing activities).
To obtain this information, please send an email message to https://vaelderlaw.com/contact-us/ with “Shine the Light Request” on the subject line and in the body of your message. We will provide the requested information to you at your e-mail address in response. Please be aware that not all information sharing is covered by the “Shine the Light” requirements and only information on covered sharing will be included in our response.
California Consumer Privacy Act (“CCPA”). The CCPA provides certain rights to California residents regarding their Personal Information. A California resident has the right to request that TEELASV disclose certain information, including: (1) the categories of Personal Information it has collected about that California resident, (2) the categories of sources from which the Personal Information is collected, (3) the business or commercial purpose for collecting or selling the Personal Information, (4) the categories of third parties with whom TEELASV shares Personal Information, (5) the specific pieces of Personal Information it has collected about that resident, and (6) the categories of Personal Information that TEELASV has sold about that resident and the categories of third parties to whom that information was sold.
A California resident has the right to request that TEELASV delete their Personal information. A California resident also has a right to “opt-out” of the sale of that resident’s personal information. Finally, a California resident has the right not to be discriminated against for exercising their privacy rights under the CCPA. Provided, however, that the CCPA does not prohibit TEELASV from offering financial incentives, different prices, rates, levels or qualities of goods or services for the collection of personal information if that price or difference is directly related to the value provided by the consumer’s data.
To submit a request to exercise your rights as a California resident, please submit the details of your request by email to https://vaelderlaw.com/contact-us/, with the subject line “CCPA Consumer Request”.

Dispute Resolution and Arbitration
PLEASE READ THIS CAREFULLY. IT AFFECTS YOUR RIGHTS. If you have a concern about your purchase or any other issue, please call TEELASV‘s customer service. In the unlikely event that TEELASV is unable to resolve a complaint you may have to your satisfaction, then you and TEELASV each agree to be bound by these dispute resolution procedures.
You and TEELASV each agree that any dispute, claim, or controversy arising out of or relating in any way to your use of the Website, your ordering of Products or Services from TEELASV or its affiliates through the Website, by phone, or through third-party websites offering TEELASV Products or Services shall be determined by binding arbitration.
BY AGREEING TO ARBITRATION, YOU UNDERSTAND AND AGREE THAT YOU ARE GIVING UP YOUR RIGHT TO BRING AN ACTION IN COURT OR BEFORE AN ADMINISTRATIVE AGENCY. ARBITRATION IS MORE INFORMAL THAN COURT OR ADMINISTRATIVE PROCEEDINGS. ARBITRATION USES A NEUTRAL ARBITRATOR TO DECIDE A DISPUTE INSTEAD OF A JUDGE OR JURY. AN ARBITRATOR’S AWARD IS SUBJECT TO VERY
LIMITED REVIEW BY COURTS. HOWEVER, AN ARBITRATOR CAN AWARD ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS THE SAME DAMAGES AND RELIEF AS A COURT (INCLUDING INJUNCTIVE AND DECLARATORY RELIEF OR STATUTORY DAMAGES). AN ARBITRATOR IS ALSO BOUND BY THESE
TERMS TO THE SAME EXTENT AS A COURT.
WE EACH ALSO AGREE THAT ANY DISPUTE RESOLUTION PROCEEDINGS OF ANY NATURE OR IN ANY FORUM WILL BE CONDUCTED ONLY ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS AND NOT IN A CLASS, CONSOLIDATED OR REPRESENTATIVE ACTION. THIS MEANS THAT YOU MAY NOT BRING A CLAIM ON BEHALF OF A CLASS OR ANY PERSON OTHER THAN YOURSELF. UNLESS OTHERWISE AGREED IN WRITING BY BOTH YOU AND TEELASV, AN ARBITRATOR MAY NOT CONSOLIDATE MORE THAN ONE PERSON’S CLAIMS, MAY NOT CONDUCT ANY FORM OF A REPRESENTATIVE OR CLASS PROCEEDING, AND MAY NOT AWARD RELIEF OTHER THAN ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS.
To begin an arbitration proceeding, you must send a demand to the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) describing your claim and serve a copy of the demand to https://vaelderlaw.com/contact-us/. The arbitration will be conducted by the AAA under its Commercial Arbitration Rules and Mediation Procedures, and for disputes arising from or related to the purchase of products or services for personal or household use the AAA’s Consumer Arbitration Rules will apply. AAA and the arbitrator will determine the appropriate rules that may apply as from time to time amended. The AAA’s rules and the form for filing an arbitration claim are available at www.adr.org or by calling 1-800-778-7879. Payment of all filing, administration and arbitrator fees will be governed by the AAA’s rules. TEELASV will reimburse those fees (but not any attorney’s fees) for arbitration claims seeking less than $10,000 unless
the arbitrator determines your claims are frivolous. Additionally, TEELASV will not seek attorneys’ fees and costs in arbitration unless the arbitrator determines the claims are frivolous. You may choose to have the arbitration conducted by telephone, based on written submissions, or in person in the county where you live or at another mutually agreed upon location. The arbitrator shall be bound by these Terms.
As an alternative to arbitration, you may elect to submit a claim to a small claims court if the claim qualifies, but any filing or other fees will be your responsibility.
If for any reason a claim proceeds in court rather than in arbitration, we each waive any right to a jury trial, unless such waiver is unenforceable. This means that any claim in court would be decided by a judge, not a jury.
We also each agree that you or TEELASV may bring suit in court to seek temporary provisional relief such as to enjoin infringement or other misuse of
intellectual property rights.
Governing Law
THIS AGREEMENT EVIDENCES A TRANSACTION IN INTERSTATE COMMERCE, AND THUS THE FEDERAL ARBITRATION ACT AND APPLICABLE FEDERAL LAW GOVERNS THE INTERPRETATION AND ENFORCEMENT OF THESE TERMS AND ANY CLAIMS ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING IN ANY WAY TO YOUR USE OF THE WEBSITE AND SERVICES, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, PRODUCTS AND SERVICES ORDERED OR PURCHASED THROUGH THE WEBSITE. IN THE ABSENCE OF APPLICABLE FEDERAL LAW, THEN THE INTERNAL LAWS OF THE STATE OF Virginia (WITHOUT REGARD TO CONFLICT OF LAWS PRINCIPLES) WILL GOVERN.
