Safeguarding Your Personal Privacy

Adam & Eve takes your personal privacy extremely seriously. Our company was founded to help protect your privacy, and we’ve gone to court on multiple occasions to defend that right.

We take extra care to safeguard your privacy from the second you land on our homepage to the moment your order arrives at your front door. Here’s just a few of our special measures:

Strong Computer Defenses

Adam and Eve has comprehensive, companywide standards for maintaining the privacy and safety of your personal and billing information. While we can’t go into explicit details, our safeguards include multi-layered firewalls and virus scans, secured servers, mandatory password changes, and the very latest in computer encryption.

Anonymous Shipping

All of our products are shipped as anonymously as possible. Depending on your order, you might receive a plain brown box or a tan business envelope lined with bubble wrap. Because Adam & Eve is a very recognized name, we use an alias on the return address label to protect your privacy.

Discreet Billing

Our efforts to ensure your privacy even extends to your credit card statement. Our name will never appear in your billing statement. Instead, your order will be listed simply as Adam Mail.

Adam & Eve’s Privacy Policy

Effective June 24, 2024

PHE, Inc. is the owner of Adam & Eve. PHE, Inc. (referred to later as "PHE," "AdamEve.com," "we," "us" or "our") fully understands the need to protect your personal information while online and has developed this policy to safeguard your data in accordance with relevant regulations and laws.

This Privacy Policy (referred to later as "Policy") describes how we gather and process your personal information throughout our website, located at www.adameve.com (referred to later as the "Site"). It provides you with the necessary information regarding your rights and our obligations. It also explains how, why and when we process your personal data.

By using the Site or obtaining any product or service through this Site, you agree to the limited collection and use of information as outlined in this Policy. If you do not agree to this Policy, please do not use the Site.

Emails from Adameve.com or its business partners, and the Site itself, may contain links to other Internet websites, including sites that may or may not be owned or operated by Adameve.com or PHE. Unless otherwise explicitly stated, we are not responsible for the privacy practices or the content of such websites, including their use of any information (such as IP number, browser type or operating system) collected when email recipients or Site visitors click through links to those sites. If you visit such websites, we encourage you to become familiar with the privacy practices of the sites to ensure a safe browsing experience.

We may from time to time update this Policy to reflect changing technology and other factors. We will notify you of changes to the Policy by posting the updated Policy on this page. We ask that you bookmark and periodically review this page to ensure that you remain familiar with the most current version of the Policy.

Website Analytics

AdamEve.com collects the following information during your visits to our Site to assist us in learning how our website is being used, how to effectively market our products to you, and how we can improve it for our visitors.

We collect data that in some jurisdictions could be considered personally identifiable information as well as anonymized, non-personally identifiable information. When visitors come to our Site, we collect and aggregate information indicating, for example, which pages of the Site were visited, the order in which they were visited and which links on the site were clicked. This information includes descriptions and names of specific products that you view, click on, or place in your cart. Depending on your privacy settings on your web browser, when this information is collected, website cookies on your computer may send personally identifiable information to our third-party aggregators, advertisers and analytics providers. The collection of this information also involves logging the IP addresses, operating system and browser software used by each visitor to the Site. Although such information is not personally identifiable on its own, it may be possible to determine from an IP address a visitor’s Internet Service Provider and the general geographic location of the visitor’s point of connectivity. All such information is collected in real time as one accesses and navigates all areas of our website and is transmitted in real time to our third-party aggregators, advertisers and analytics providers. We then use this information in making modifications and improvements to the site to provide users with a smoother and more efficient shopping experience.

Transaction Completion Information

Second, AdamEve.com collects personally identifiable information as needed to provide you with requested services and to process your orders, prevent fraud, and to ship your product to you. This information is provided directly by you, such as when you complete the account sign-up form, order form, or email marketing opt-in form and/or when you provide information over the telephone. This information is not part of website analytics and is not shared with our website analytics third-party providers. The personally identifiable information you provide may include the following information, which we use as indicated below:

• Name — used for order fulfillment and marketing
• Date of Birth — used to ensure that you are a legal adult
• Mailing, Shipping and Billing Addresses — used for order fulfillment and marketing
• Email Address — used for order status communication and marketing
• Telephone Number(s) — used for order status communication and marketing
• Credit Card or Debit Card Number — used for payment for orders

Further, when you use the Site to purchase a product as a gift and ask us to deliver it for you, we collect personally identifiable information that you provided regarding the gift recipient, including their name and mailing address.

If you live in the United States and opt to donate to a charity when checking out, Adam & Eve might share some of your data with Beam Impact. The shared data includes customer email (or other unique identifier), customer postal code, customer country code, cart subtotal, cart currency, and possibly other information. Beam collects and processes this data for calculating the amount of the donation to the customer's selected charity. Beam is contractually forbidden from selling or sharing this data. Learn more about Beam's Privacy Policy.

Adam & Eve on occasion uses Hotjar in order to better understand our users’ needs and to optimize our services. Hotjar uses cookies and other tracking technology to collect data (such as how much time a user spends on a page on our site or which links a user clicks) on our users’ behavior and their devices. Hotjar stores this information on our behalf as a pseudonymized, or de-identified, user profile. Hotjar is contractually forbidden to sell any of the data collected on our behalf.

Cookie Settings

Like many online services, we also use non-invasive "cookies" and other tracking technologies to collect information. Cookies are alphanumeric identifiers that we transfer to your computer's hard drive through your Web browser. These cookies do not track other websites you might visit and they do not plant malware on your computer. Our non-invasive cookies allow us to recognize your browser so we can personalize your return visits to the Site and save you time during checkout.

If you are uncomfortable with cookies on your computer, you can always remove them by accessing the options menu of your browser. Please refer to your browser’s help menu for more specific directions if needed.

This site uses cookies and related technologies for site operation, analytics, and third party advertising purposes as described in this policy. If you would like to manage your preferences, and/or opt-out of sharing data with third parties information related to these technologies, click "Cookie Settings" button below.

How We Use Your Data (Legal Basis for Processing)

PHE takes your privacy very seriously and will never sell your personal data to anyone. We only use your data for the purpose(s) specified in this Policy. Where you have consented to us providing you with promotional offers and marketing, you are free to withdraw this consent at any time.

Adameve.com uses non-personally identifiable information, such as your IP address and the pages that you visit on our Site, to help diagnose problems with our servers and to administer our Site and improve Site-related services and features. Your IP address and other non-personally identifiable information also may be used to gather broad demographic information and to recognize customer traffic patterns and Site usage trends. This information aids us in merchandising and in developing the design and layout of the Site.

We also might share aggregated statistical data and other non-personally identifiable information with our current and potential business partners and with our service providers to help them provide similar services.

Adameve.com sometimes administers online surveys in connection with the Site in which we ask you for demographic information and opinions. We do not ask you for personally identifiable information as part of a survey. We use the collected survey data on an aggregated basis to better understand the needs of all of our customers.

Adameve.com uses personally identifiable information collected from you to complete transactions initiated by you, particularly the sale and delivery of products and services. Your personally identifiable information is also used to get in touch with you when necessary to provide updates about your order and answer any questions you might have.

We may also use personally identifiable information to contact you to make sure you are satisfied with our goods and services or to find out how we can serve you better. Your decision to participate in any survey or questionnaire about this is completely voluntary. Further, we may use personally identifiable information to conduct in-depth marketing research regarding our customers and potential customers.

Financial information (credit card numbers, credit card expiration dates, billing address, and so forth) is used solely to bill you for products and services and we make every effort to keep your information secure from theft or fraud.

Adameve.com also may use your personally identifiable information to "pre-populate" forms that are used by the Site to facilitate transactions with us and save you from entering every data field on the checkout.

Adameve.com may send you periodic announcements regarding your order, status updates, service changes concerning the Site and other administrative matters.

You may also, from time to time, receive information from us regarding new features, new products and services and special offers we think you'll find valuable. If you'd like to opt out of receiving promotional communications from us, please follow the procedure outlined in the Opt-Out section below.

There are some special instances when we might use or disclose personally identifiable information:

Gift Recipients

As noted above, we collect personally identifiable information regarding gift recipients and people to whom you may wish to give gifts in the future. This is done in order to accommodate proper gift delivery to such recipients and remind you of upcoming gift-giving occasions. We do not sell or rent any personally identifiable information that you provide to us regarding such persons, but gift recipients may, from time to time, receive offers from us via postal mailings regarding new features, new products and services and special offers we think they will find of interest. Also, we may send marketing offers via postal mailings to gift recipients on behalf of ourselves and our business partners. In connection with such offers, we allow gift recipients to opt out of receiving future marketing-related postal mailings from us, as discussed in the Opt-Out section below.

Service Providers

As described in this Privacy Policy, we work with third parties who provide services, including but not limited to website hosting, order processing and fulfillment, age verification, credit card clearance, e-commerce affiliation, data analysis, emailing, marketing, targeting and other services. Some of these third parties may be given access to some or all of the information that you provide to us and may use cookies or other tracking technologies in connection with providing their services. To the extent that we provide your personally identifiable information to such third parties, we restrict their ability to use such information for their own marketing purposes to the best of our abilities. However, we cannot be responsible for the privacy policies or practices of such third parties.

Related Companies

We may share personal information we collect about you with related companies for purposes consistent with this Policy.

As Required By Law

Sharing and Disclosing Your Personal Information

Except as provided in this Policy, we do not share or disclose any of your personal information without your consent.

PHE uses third parties to provide certain services and business functions, and may share your personal information with service providers for purposes such as order and payment processing, website functionality and the marketing of products. Keep in mind that, while we encourage all third parties involved in running our business to adhere to our policies regarding the privacy of our visitors and to handle personally identifiable information in a responsible manner, we cannot and do not assume any responsibility for any actions or omissions of third parties, including the manner in which they use information received either from Adameve.com or independently.
