If you make a purchase from a Merchant whose link originates from the Evogue site or a Merchant catalogue or website “presented by” Evogue, the information you provide to that Merchant, such as your credit card number and contact information, is provided to the Merchant and NOT to Evogue. Providing this information to the Merchant allows the transaction to take place.

You should also know that these Merchants have their own privacy policies and data collection practices and are not covered by the Evogue Privacy Policy. We do not have any control over their policy and therefore take no responsibility or liability for their independent policies. For more information regarding Merchants appearing on Evogue or other Merchants who send catalogues or host websites “presented by” Evogue and their privacy policies, please see the Merchant’s website or contact them at the contact information provided on their website/catalogue. Merchants that have links on the Evogue site may collect personally identifiable information about you. The information practices of these Merchants are not covered by the Evogue Privacy Policy.

12. Conflict in terms
It is our goal to make our privacy practices easy to understand. We have created this easy-to-read Privacy Policy Statement with that goal in mind. Some browsers utilize privacy enhancing technology to translate our Privacy Policy Statement into a computer readable format. The technology then requires that the computer format be translated back into human readable format for you to read. This translation back into human readable format is often referred to as a “Policy Summary”. It is possible that through these translations, the Policy Summary may unintentionally end up being inconsistent with the Privacy Policy upon which it is based. It might fail to address an issue or it might address an issue not raised in our Privacy Policy. For this reason, you should rely on our Privacy Policy as the most accurate and definitive description of our practices.
