Information We Collect

In running and maintaining our website we may collect and process data about you, including:

  • Information about your use of our site including details of your visits such as pages viewed and the resources that you access. Such    information includes traffic data, location data and other communication data.
  • Information provided voluntarily by you – for example, when you make a purchase, or you register for information.
  • Information that you provide when you communicate with us by any means.

We are not responsible for third party features of the Site. You should review privacy policies of any third-party features before providing personally identifiable information to them.

To protect ourselves and our customers, we may record telephone calls for training and monitoring purposes. We also collect information from publicly available sources, and from third parties (such as credit reference or marketing agencies) to let you know about products that may be relevant for your business.

We may collect and retain information about you even if you do not actually become a customer.

IP Addresses

An IP address is a number assigned to your computer when you connect to the Internet. As part of the protocol of the Internet, web servers can identify your computer by its IP address. In addition, web servers may be able to identify the type of browser and/or type of computer you are using.

Clena Ltd collects IP addresses and related information for the purposes of system administration, to assess the traffic to the Site, to report aggregate information and to maintain and improve the Site. We can and will use IP addresses, however, to identify a user when we feel it is necessary to enforce compliance with our Terms and Conditions or to protect our service, the website, customers or others.

Use of Cookies

Cookies are small files that a site or its service provider transfers to your computer's hard drive through your Web browser (if you allow) that enables the site's or service provider's systems to recognize your browser and capture and remember certain information. For instance, we use cookies to help us remember and process the items in your shopping cart. They are also used to help us understand your preferences based on previous or current site activity, which enables us to provide you with improved services. We also use cookies to help us compile aggregate data about site traffic and site interaction so that we can offer better site experiences and tools in the future.

We may contract with third-party service providers to assist us in better understanding our site visitors. These service providers are not permitted to use the information collected on our behalf except to help us conduct and improve our business.

You can choose to have your computer warn you each time a cookie is being sent, or you can choose to turn off all cookies. You do this through your browser (such as Internet Explorer) settings. Each browser is a little different, so look at your browser Help menu to learn the correct way to modify your cookies. If you turn cookies off, you won't have access to many features that make your site experience more efficient and some of our services will not function properly. However, you can still place orders over the telephone by contacting customer service.
