Privacy Policy

Welcome to ArtSkills! Protecting your privacy is our priority. This Privacy Policy governs the ArtSkills, Inc., web site, www.ArtSkills.com, and all other web sites, apps, and online services provided by or on behalf of ArtSkills, Inc., that link to this Privacy Statement (“the ArtSkills Services”). By accessing this site, you are consenting to this Privacy Policy. This Privacy Policy describes what information ArtSkills collects from users, including children, when they visit the Site; how such information is used and stored; when such information may be disclosed to third parties; how users, parents, and guardians can control the use and disclosure of collected information; and how information is protected. 

The privacy of all of our visitors is important to us, and we recognize the need to provide additional privacy protection for children on the ArtSkills Site. Our privacy practices comply with the United States' Children's Online Privacy Protection Act of 1998, as well as data privacy laws in the United States and other applicable countries. Younger visitors should always check with their parents or guardians before entering information on any web site and we encourage families to discuss their household guidelines regarding the online sharing of personal information.

 

What information do we collect?

The ArtSkills Site collects only the information that is reasonably necessary for the activities available on the web site. In general, we collect three types of information:

  1.  Information that you actively provide to us (for example, during registration, sweepstakes, purchases or content submissions);
  2. Information we automatically collect about your computer or wireless devices (such as your IP address, cookie ID, and other unique device identifiers); and
  3.  Information we collect from third parties, including through your registered third-party social media providers.

 

How do we store such information?

We store your information using reasonable security precautions and for only as long as we think reasonably necessary. Despite such precautions, there is always a chance that someone may impermissibly access your information. If you think a third party has accessed your information, please contact us immediately as instructed below.

 

How do we use such information?

In general, the information we collect may be used to respond to your requests; enable you to take advantage of the ArtSkills Site features and services; personalize your experience and the advertising you see; send you special offers and promotions from ArtSkills, and on behalf of third parties whose products or services might be of interest to you; measure analytics; and manage and improve the services available on the ArtSkills Site.

 

What information do we share with third parties?

ArtSkills, Inc., does not sell, rent, or lease its customer lists to third parties. Depending upon the circumstances, we may share collected information with (a) law enforcement or others as needed to protect or defend our rights and the rights of others; (b) third parties we hire to handle certain activities; (c) advertisers or third parties with whom we may partner to provide you additional content, products or services; (d) business partners who sponsor a sweepstakes or contest or who jointly offer a service or feature on the ArtSkills Site; (e) within the ArtSkills company; (f) in the event of a corporate transaction; and (g) otherwise with your consent.

 

What information may others collect?

We may use a number of advertising networks, analytics service providers and other such companies to, for example, serve targeted advertisements or analyze the performance of the ArtSkills Site. These companies may use their own unique identifiers, and their use of these technologies is within their control and not ours. Our Privacy Policy does not cover any information that these companies may collect from you.

 

What control do you have over your own information?

You have the right to access, update, and correct factual inaccuracies in any personally identifiable information we collect about you. 

You can stop the delivery of commercial email messages from the ArtSkills Site by following the instructions in emails you receive. 

You may have choices about the use of your information by third parties wishing to deliver certain targeted advertising to you. 

Parents and guardians can review any personally identifiable information collected about their children and request that such information be deleted and/or that no further information be collected.

 

I.      Information Collection and Use


We may request or collect certain information when you visit the ArtSkills Site. However, visitors are required to share only the information that is reasonably necessary to participate in the particular activity.

 

          A. Registration Information: The information required of you to register may include: (a) birth date; (b) gender; (c) country; (d) state; (e) zip code; (f) username and password; (g) wireless telephone number; (h) email address; and (i) other profile information such as communications preferences and interests. If the Site either is directed to children under 13 or has actual knowledge that a user is under 13 years old, the child is asked to provide their parent's or guardian's email address. Visitors or their parents will receive an activation email and must follow the procedures or otherwise agree to the terms within the activation email within a certain time period to activate the account; accounts not activated within that time period will be deleted.

Registration information is used to enable visitors to take advantage of site offerings; respond to visitor's requests for products, services, and information; manage games; serve appropriate material; customize the content you see when you visit the ArtSkills Site; and offer visitors special offers and promotions from the ArtSkills Site, as well as on behalf of selected third parties offering products, programs, or services, that we believe may be of interest to you.

       

          B. Social Platform Registrations and Social Media Plugins: The ArtSkills Site may permit or require you to register or log-in to your account via a social networking platform such as Facebook Connect or Flux, or permit you to use social media plugins such as the Facebook "Like" or Google "+1" buttons. When you use these social networking platforms and plugins, your username and password for the services and other information available about you or collected from you on these services may be shared with us.

When you use social networking platforms and plugins, you share your information with them, and their privacy policy applies to their collection, use, and disclosure of such information. Additionally, they may be able to collect information about you, including your activity on the ArtSkills Site, and they may notify your connections on the social networking platform about your use of the ArtSkills Site. Such services may also employ unique identifiers which allow your activity to be monitored across multiple web sites for purposes of delivering more targeted advertising to you. Please note that their privacy policies may be different from our own and we encourage you to read them.

 

          C. Computer Information Collected by Us: When visitors come to the ArtSkills Site, we automatically collect certain information from their computers and/or mobile devices, such as the type of computer operating system (e.g., Windows XP or Mac OS), the visitor's IP address, the web browser (e.g., Internet Explorer, Safari, Chrome and Firefox), UDID (for mobile devices), information about the web sites visited before and after visiting the Site, the web pages and advertisements viewed and links on clicked within the ArtSkills Site, interactions with email messages sent by the Site (e.g., links clicked on and whether the messages were opened or forwarded), information collected through the use of unique identifiers such as cookies (see below), information regarding the Internet service provider, and other standard server log information ("Computer Information").

We may use cookies, web beacons, or similar technologies (collectively referred to as "Tracking Technologies") on the ArtSkills Site. "Cookies" (which may be html files, Flash files, or other technology) are text files that help store user preferences and activity. "Web beacons" (also known as image tags, gif or web bugs) are small pieces of code used to collect advertising data, such as counting page views, promotion views or advertising responses. The Site and/or third parties may use "cookies", "web beacons" and other similar tracking technologies (collectively, "Tracking Technologies") to collect Computer Information automatically as you browse the Site and the web.

 

We may use Tracking Technologies to help tailor our content, enable the internal functioning of the ArtSkills Site, understand Site and internet usage, improve or customize the content, offerings or advertisements on this Site, personalize your experience on the Site (for example, to recognize you by name when you return to the Site), understand your interactions with email messages originating from the ArtSkills Site (such as the links clicked on and whether the messages were opened or forwarded), save your password, save your online game or video player settings, enable you to use shopping carts, help us offer you products, programs, or services that may be of interest to you, deliver relevant advertising, maintain and administer the ArtSkills Site. These Tracking Technologies collect "click stream" data and additional other information about your visits to the ArtSkills Site (such as your visits to specific webpages, use of features, purchasing history or preferences), may collect such other information across multiple sessions on the ArtSkills Site and may also collect your IP address or some other identifier unique to the device you use to access the site ("Identifier"). An Identifier may be automatically assigned to any device you use to access the ArtSkills Site.

 

By visiting the Site, whether as a registered user or otherwise, you acknowledge, understand and hereby agree that you are giving us your consent to track your activities and your use of the Site through these Tracking Technologies and Identifiers and that we may use Tracking Technologies in the emails we send to you.

 

The ArtSkills Site adheres to the Self-Regulatory Principles for Online Behavioral Advertising. On our site where there is information that is directed to children under 13 or where ArtSkills, Inc. has actual knowledge that a user is under 13, ArtSkills, Inc., does not direct targeted advertising to such children based on the child's visits to the ArtSkills Site and other web sites that the child visited.

 

Our Third-Party Advertising Service Providers (as defined in Section D) do not have access to Tracking Technologies set by the ArtSkills Site except to the extent necessary to provide services to the Site. The Third-Party Advertising Service Providers, as well as advertisers, may themselves set and access their own Tracking Technologies on your Device if you choose to have Tracking Technologies enabled in your browser (or, for Flash cookies, if you have not removed them) and/or they may otherwise have access to other information about you.

 

You have a number of options with respect to the Tracking Technologies set by the ArtSkills Site:

 

          • You can prevent the use of certain Tracking Technologies (other than Flash cookies) by using the controls in your Web browser. To do so, you must complete both of the following steps:
 

                    o   Delete existing Tracking Technologies through the "Internet Options" sub-option of the "Tools" menu option of your browser or otherwise as directed by your browser's support                           feature; and

                    o   Disable future Tracking Technologies by using the same browser controls. Additional information on disabling most Tracking Technologies may be available through your                                     browser's support feature (see the "help" section of your browser for more information).

 

          • You may be able to have the device you use to access the ArtSkills Site warn you each time a cookie or most other Tracking Technologies is being set (other than Flash cookies), or you can choose to turn off such warnings. This is done through your browser on the device you use to access the ArtSkills Site. Additional information on warnings and removal of warnings may be available through your browser's support feature.
 

Please note that deleting, rejecting, disabling or turning off Tracking Technologies through the above options will not remove Flash cookies.

 

Please be aware that certain areas and features of the ArtSkills Site can only be accessed in conjunction with Tracking Technologies, and that disabling Tracking Technologies might prevent you from accessing such content.

 

          D. Computer Information Collected By Others: The ArtSkills Site may use a variety of third-party advertising networks, data exchanges, traffic measurement service providers, marketing analytics service providers, and other third-party service providers (collectively, "Third-Party Advertising Service Providers") to, for example, serve advertisements on the ArtSkills Site, facilitate targeting of advertisements, and measure and analyze advertising effectiveness and/or traffic on the ArtSkills Site ("Targeting Services"). These Targeting Services enable us to display advertisements based on your visits to the ArtSkills Site and other web sites you have visited and may include delivering advertisements or other content for products and services that may interest you. Targeting Services also help prevent you from seeing repeated advertisements and enable us to research the usefulness of certain advertisements. On sites that are directed to children under 13 or where ArtSkills, Inc., has actual knowledge that a user is under 13, ArtSkills, Inc., does not direct targeted advertising to such children based on the child's visits to the ArtSkills Site and other web sites that the child visited.

 

These Third-Party Advertising Service Providers do not have access to Tracking Technologies set by the ArtSkills Site except to the extent necessary to provide services to the ArtSkills Site. The Third-Party Advertising Service Providers, as well as advertisers, may themselves set and access their own Tracking Technologies on your device if you choose to have Tracking Technologies enabled in your browser (or, for Flash cookies, if you have not removed them) and/or they may otherwise have access to Other Information about you. In addition, Third-Party Advertising Service Providers may collect aggregate log data separately and independently from what the ArtSkills Site collects.

 

You should be aware that different rules might apply to the collection, use or disclosure of your information by third parties in connection with their advertisements, promotions, and other web sites you encounter on the Internet. The use of such technology by these third parties is within their control and not the ArtSkills Site. Even if we have a relationship with the third party, we do not control those sites or their policies and practices regarding your information and this Privacy Policy does not cover any use of information that they may collect from you. We encourage you to research and direct any of your questions in this regard to these third parties. Use of a third party's Tracking Technology is subject to their own privacy policies.

 

With respect to the Tracking Technologies set by Third-Party Advertising Service Providers and advertisers (and outside the control of the ArtSkills Site), you have a number of options:

 

          • You can opt-out of the use of information for these advertising purposes by using those providers' opt-out tools.
 

          • Please note the following with respect to opting out of Tracking Technologies set by Third-Party Advertising Service Providers and advertisers:
 

                    o   The opt-out tools discussed above are "cookie based." This means that the tools rely on cookies to remember your choices with respect to the use of your information by the parties that offer you those choices. If you opt-out but then use the controls in your browser to delete all Tracking Technologies, you may have to opt-out again, a second time, in order to re-establish your opt-out preferences.

                    o   Opt-outs are browser-specific. This means, for example, that if you opt out while using Internet Explorer 9, this choice will not affect the collection of information collected by Tracking Technologies when you use Mozilla Firefox on the same device. It also means that opting out on one device will not affect the collection of information by Tracking Technologies on other devices you may use to access the ArtSkills Site.

 

          • You also can prevent the use of certain Tracking Technologies (other than Flash cookies) on a particular device by using the controls in your Web browser. To do so, you must complete both of the following steps:
 

                    o   Delete existing Tracking Technologies through the "Internet Options" sub-option of the "Tools" menu option of your browser or otherwise as directed by your browser's support feature; and

                    o   Disable future Tracking Technologies by using the same browser controls. Additional information on disabling most Tracking Technologies may be available through your browser's support feature (see the "help" section of your browser for more information).

 

          • You may be able to set the device you use to access the ArtSkills Site to warn you each time a cookie or most other Tracking Technologies is being set (other than Flash cookies), or you can choose to turn off such warnings. This is done through your browser on the device you use to access the ArtSkills Site. Additional information on warnings and removal of warnings may be available through your browser's support feature.
 

          • Opting out of, deleting, rejecting, disabling, or turning off Third-Party Advertising Service Providers' Tracking Technologies does not mean that you will no longer receive online ads. Opting out of, deleting, rejecting, disabling, or turning off Third-Party Advertising Service Providers' Tracking Technologies only means that such ads will no longer be tailored to your specific viewing habits or interests, but you will continue to see ads on the ArtSkills Site.
 

          • PLEASE NOTE THAT THE USE AND STORAGE OF FLASH COOKIES TYPICALLY CANNOT BE CONTROLLED THROUGH YOUR BROWSER.
 

          E. Contests and Sweepstakes: The ArtSkills Site may offer online contests and sweepstakes. To enter these contests and sweepstakes, you may be required to provide your first name and email address and/or additional information required for the management of the contest or sweepstakes. Where this content is either directed to children under 13 or where we have actual knowledge that a user is a child under 13, we may collect the child's email address to enter the child in the contest or sweepstakes, store such child's email address for the duration of the sweepstakes, and use it for notification if he or she is the winner. For certain contests or sweepstakes, we may ask for the email address of the child's parent or guardian to inform the parent or guardian of their child's entry and give the parent or guardian the option to have the child's entry deleted.

 

          F. Electronic Postcards and Messages: The ArtSkills Site may provide visitors the opportunity to send electronic postcards and "wish lists" of items they want to family or friends, which means we will send, on the visitor's behalf, email messages to family and/or friends. To do so, visitors must provide the email address of the recipient of such electronic postcards or email messages. Email addresses provided to us for this purpose are used solely to send the requested postcard or email message and are deleted from our system once the postcard or message is sent. In some cases, we may offer visitors an incentive (e.g., points to be used in an online game) for referring information about products to the visitor's family or friends. In such cases, we will comply with all applicable legal requirements. Please note that this feature may not be available to visitors in certain regions.

 

          G. Electronic Newsletters: Visitors can provide their email addresses to receive email newsletters and promotions from ArtSkills, Inc., and our business partners. Visitors may change their preferences regarding emails at any time through the unsubscribe link in the newsletters or, for the ArtSkills Site, by logging into and changing the preferences for their account.

 

When visitors to the ArtSkills Site, who experience content that is either directed to children under 13 or if we have actual knowledge that a user is a child under 13 years old, ask to receive our email newsletter(s), they will be asked to provide their first name, email address and the email address of their parent/guardian. We will send the child's parent/guardian a notification email informing them of the child's request to receive by email the newsletter on an ongoing basis and give the parent/guardian the option to have their child's information removed from our newsletter database. The link to remove the child's information will expire approximately 48 hours from the time it is sent, but at any time after receiving this notification email, the child's parent/guardian may request that we stop sending the child the newsletter(s) by following the "unsubscribe" instructions found at the end of any of the newsletter emails. Parents/guardians may at any time review any personally identifiable information collected online about their child. See section V(B) “Parental Access” below. When a child provides a parent's/guardian's email address when signing up for newsletter(s), that email address is used to send the notification email message and is subsequently deleted from our system.

 

          H. Interactive Features and Services: The ArtSkills Site may offer interactive features and services, such as message boards, chat rooms, electronic mail services, comment boxes, messaging services, and member profile pages. For certain countries, on ArtSkills Site that either are directed to children under 13 or have actual knowledge that a user is a child under 13 years old, we either will obtain the consent of the child's parent before allowing the child to use these interactive features and services or will use reasonable technical measures to delete all or virtually all personal information from a child's postings before they are made public and also delete such information from our records. We use the information collected through interactive features and services to enable you to participate in such features and services.

 

          I. Wireless Marketing Services: Consistent with local law, appropriately aged visitors may have the opportunity to register for special promotions, services, news, programming and information delivered via text messaging and/or wireless devices. To do so, visitors may be asked to provide their telephone number, wireless email address, carrier's name, and/or their opinion regarding certain goods and/or services. Visitors must opt in to receive wireless marketing material from ArtSkills, Inc., through one of the following methods: (a) filling out the registration information on the ArtSkills Site wireless marketing registration page; or (b) sending a specific word, code, or symbol via a text message to a telephone number designated by us in any promotional material. The visitor may also be asked to confirm their acceptance to receive such wireless marketing services.

Visitors who register for wireless marketing services acknowledge, understand and agree that they will be charged by the visitor's wireless carrier for all messages sent to the visitor from the ArtSkills Site. Standard messaging rates will apply, unless noted otherwise. Under no circumstances will ArtSkills, Inc., be responsible for any wireless email or text messaging charges incurred by such visitor or by a person that has access to a visitor's wireless device, telephone number, or email address.

 

          J. Geolocation Information: We may collect and store information about your precise geographic location if you enable your computer or mobile device to send us location information. You may be able to change the settings on your computer or mobile device to prevent it from providing us with such information. We use this information, for example, to enable visitors to take advantage of Site offerings; respond to visitor's requests for products, services, and information; manage games; customize the content visitors see when visiting the ArtSkills Site; and to offer visitors special offers and promotions from ArtSkills, Inc., as well as on behalf of selected third parties offering products, programs, or services that we believe may be of interest to our visitors.

 

          K. Financial Information: We collect and use financial information, such as credit card numbers and security codes, for the limited purposes described below.

Games & Activities: Users who are of legal age to form a binding contract may purchase games available on the ArtSkills Site (e.g., games from Shockwave.com), if any. Purchasing such games may require providing information to process the order, including full name, billing and/or shipping addresses, email address, credit card number, control payment number, PIN, card security code, expiration date and/or a phone number. After successfully entering a valid credit card number/expiration date and completing the order process, an account is created. We use this information to process the order and to send order confirmations via email, as well as to send information about products and services of interest and as otherwise required by law. If you make purchases using a pre-paid card, we will not require you to enter any personally identifiable information to complete your purchase.
 

Consumer Products: The ArtSkills Site may provide pages and/or links to pages offering visitors who are of legal age to form a binding contract the opportunity to purchase consumer products. To do so, visitors need to provide contact, shipping, billing and credit information. These pages may be hosted and operated by a third party that is independent and separate from ArtSkills, Inc. This third party collects personal information about visitors and may share this information with us. We use this information to process the order and to send order confirmations via email, as well as to send information about products and services of interest and as otherwise required by law. Before providing information on these pages, we encourage you to review the posted privacy policies which govern such third parties' use of your information, as they may differ from ours.
 

Virtual Items/Memberships: The ArtSkills Site may offer memberships, online subscriptions and/or virtual items for use in conjunction with the ArtSkills Site games. When you enter into a transaction for a membership, subscription, virtual item or similar transaction, you may be asked to provide the credit card and/or billing information and email address. We will use this information to fulfill your specified requests, as well as to inform you about additional products and/or service opportunities and as otherwise required by law. Please also see the information regarding payment processors in Section II(B) “Agents” below.
 

          L. Other Data Collection and Use: We collect search query information when visitors search for information on the ArtSkills Site. We also collect information from visitors when they contact us with questions and comments.

 

We may use this information, along with any of the other information described above, to (i) analyze use of the ArtSkills Site and understand and improve our service offerings; (ii) prevent potentially prohibited or illegal activities; and (iii) for any other purposes disclosed to you at the time we collect your information or pursuant to your consent.

 

We may combine information collected through the ArtSkills Site with information we collect from other sources (e.g., social media integration services, offline records, or publicly available information). It is your responsibility to provide complete and accurate information and to keep such information up to date. We are not responsible for any problem or liability arising from your failure to do so.

 

II.     DISCLOSURE TO THIRD PARTIES


We may share your information with third parties for the limited purposes described below. In the UNITED STATES, parents of children under the age of 13 have the option of consenting to the collection and use of their child's personal information without consenting to the disclosure of that information to certain third parties.

 

          A. Law Enforcement and Safety.
You acknowledge, consent, and agree to the extent legally permissible in this jurisdiction to allow us to access, preserve, and/or disclose the information we collect and/or content you provide to us (including information you may have posted on bulletin boards or internal site communication systems) to a law enforcement agency or other third parties if required to do so by law or with a good faith belief that such access, preservation, or disclosure is reasonably necessary to: (a) comply with legal process; (b) enforce the Terms of Use of the ArtSkills Site; (c) respond to claims that the content violates the rights of third parties; (d) respond to your requests for customer service; or (e) protect the rights, property, or personal safety of the owners of the ArtSkills Site, any user of the ArtSkills Site, a third party, or the general public. We also may disclose user information whenever we believe disclosure is necessary to limit our legal liability; to protect or defend our rights or property; or protect the safety, rights, or property of others.

 

If you have concerns about the conduct of a particular user, please send an email to customerservice@ArtSkills.com. This email is not to contact us about the status of your account.

 

          B. Agents.
Information collected through the ArtSkills Site may be transferred, disclosed, or shared with third parties engaged by us to handle and deliver certain activities, such as message boards, sweepstakes and contests, e-cards, payment processing, newsletters, and advisory boards, and to perform other technical and processing functions, such as sending postal mail and email, maintaining data integrity, programming operations, user services or technology services. We may provide these third parties information collected as needed to perform their functions, but they are prohibited from using it for other purposes and specifically agree to maintain the confidentiality of such information. Some of these agents, such as payment processors, may request additional information during the course of offering their services. Before you provide additional information to third-party agents, we encourage visitors to review their privacy policies and information collection practices.

 

          C. Third Parties/Advertisers.
The ArtSkills Site may partner with outside third parties to provide you with additional content, products, or services that we believe may be of interest to you. For example, we may partner with a greeting card company, software manufacturer, social media plugin provider, or mobile phone provider to offer you electronic cards, games, social networking, or text messaging services. These partners operate web sites and services that are separate and independent from the ArtSkills Site and, accordingly, may have their own privacy policies. If you consent or register with one of our partners, that means you grant the ArtSkills Site permission to give your registration and other information, including email address, to that third party. If you have identified yourself as residing in the EU, we will not share your email address or other personally identifiable information with third parties for advertising purposes unless you have "opted-in."

 

In addition, Third-Party Advertising Service Providers may use their own Tracking Technologies to gather information about you. Please see Section I(D) “Computer Information Collected by Others” above for more detailed information regarding such use of Tracking Technologies.

 

          D. Co-Branded Sites and Features.
The ArtSkills Site may offer co-branded services and features, such as events and promotions that we put together with another company ("Co-Branded Partner"). Such services may be hosted on the Site and/or our Co-Branded Partner's web site. We may share your information with our Co-Branded Partner and your voluntary use of or participation in a co-branded service or feature means that you opt-in and affirmatively consent to both the ArtSkills Site and our Co-Branded Partner collecting and using the information you provided during registration and/or in connection with the specific co-branded feature for fulfillment, marketing, or administrative purposes. If you wish to opt-out of a Co-Branded Partner's future use of your information for marketing purposes, you will need to contact the Co-Branded Partner directly. The Co-Branded Partner will be identified on the co-branded feature or service.

 

          E. Business Transfer.
In the event that assets relating to the ArtSkills Site are transferred or sold to another entity as the result of, for example, a corporate sale, merger, consolidation, asset sale, or in the unlikely event of bankruptcy, information collected at the ArtSkills Site may be transferred to the acquiring company.

 

          F. With Your Consent.
We may otherwise disclose your information pursuant to your consent.

 

III.    INTERNATIONAL TRANSFER


The ArtSkills Site is designed for, and targeted to, UNITED STATES audiences and is governed by and operated in accordance with the laws of the United States of America. We make no representation that the ArtSkills Site is operated in accordance with the laws or regulations of, or governed by, other nations. By participating in activities on the ArtSkills Site, you certify that you meet the age and other eligibility requirements for the ArtSkills Site as set forth in the Terms of Use Agreement. If you do not meet the age and other eligibility requirements of the Site, please discontinue using the Site immediately as your continued use of the ArtSkills Site indicates that you are agreeing to the collection, use, disclosure, management, and storage of your Information as described in this Privacy Policy.

 

Please note that by providing us with personal information, you understand and agree that: (1) due to our international operations, your personal information may be transferred to and stored on servers located outside your resident jurisdiction; (2) to the extent you are a resident of a country other than the United States, you consent to the transfer of such data to the United States for processing by our affiliates in accordance with this Privacy Policy; and (3) the Privacy Policy and the collection of information pursuant to the Privacy Policy shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the United States of America, without giving effect to any principles of conflicts of law.

 

If you do not consent to the terms of this Privacy Policy, please do not use the ArtSkills Site because your use of the ArtSkills Site represents your consent. If you have already provided personal information, please contact us at customerservice@ArtSkills.com about how you would like us to handle such information.

 

IV.   SECURITY, STORAGE AND RETENTION OF INFORMATION


The ArtSkills Site maintains reasonable technical and organizational steps to help ensure that information is securely collected, including limiting the number of people who have physical access to our database servers and use of electronic security systems and password protections which guard against unauthorized access. The ArtSkills Site conducts financial transactions via secured transmissions. We limit access to visitors' information to employees and contractors who are authorized for the proper handling of such information, and any employee found violating our standards of security and confidentiality will be subject to our disciplinary processes. We also take reasonable steps to help ensure our third-party agents protect the security of your personal information. However, as with most Internet sites or services, it is possible that third parties may unlawfully access such personal information through a number of means despite our efforts.

 

Information collected at the ArtSkills Site will not be stored for longer than is necessary for the purposes described in this Privacy Policy, or to otherwise meet legal requirements.

 

V.   ACCESSING AND CORRECTING INFORMATION; TERMINATION OF WIRELESS SERVICES

To help protect your privacy and the security of your personally identifiable information, we will take reasonable steps to verify your identity before granting access.

 

          B. Parental Access
Parents/guardians of children under the age of 13 can request to review any personally identifiable information collected about their child, have this information deleted, and/or request that there be no further collection or use of their child's personally identifiable information.

We will take steps to verify the identity of anyone requesting personally identifiable information about a child and to ensure that the person is in fact the child's parent or legal guardian.

 

          C. Termination of Wireless Services
You may cancel one or more wireless services via your wireless device at any time by using the unsubscribe mechanism provided by the ArtSkills Site at the time the message is sent, or by sending a text message that says "STOP", "END", "CANCEL", "REMOVE", "UNSUBSCRIBE", or "QUIT". The ArtSkills Site will terminate your registration for the most recent wireless service you received. Any of these words followed by the word "ALL" in the user's termination request will cancel all of the user's registered wireless services with the ArtSkills Site. If you unsubscribe from one or all of wireless service(s) via your wireless device, the service(s) will be terminated immediately and will cancel your previous opt-in.
