Privacy
Policy
The
following describes the Privacy Policy for our http://ArtsHelpDesk.com
website.
Your
Privacy
Your
privacy is important to us at ArtsHelpDesk.com. To better protect
your privacy we provide this notice explaining our online information
practices and the choices you can make about the way your information
is collected and used. You agree to agree to these policies by
virtue of using our website in a way that leads to you providing
us with personal information.
State
Law & Accompanying Rights
Please understand that you may have additional rights originating
from State laws based on where you live. These State-based rights
may augment, strengthen, or otherwise somehow compliment any privacy
rights you have inherently or under Federal law. Our policy is
to comply fully with the privacy policies of every jurisdiction
in which we operate. Accordingly, you are free to use our Contact
information to reach us at any time to assert any State rights.
Our
Commitment To Children’s Privacy
Protecting
the privacy of the very young is especially important. For that
reason, our website will never collect or maintain information
at our website from those we actually know are under 18, and no
part of our website is structured to attract anyone under 18.
Under our Terms of Service and Conditions of Use, children under
18 are not allowed to use our website and access our services.
It is not our intention to offer products or services to minors.
Collection
of Personal Information
When
visiting our website, the IP address used to access our website
may be logged along with the dates and times of access. This information
is purely used to analyze trends, administer our website, track
users movement, and gather broad demographic information for internal
use such as statistical assessments and website improvement. Most
importantly, any recorded IP addresses are not linked to personally
identifiable information. Other information may be collected as
well by ArtsHelpDesk.com, which is rather typical of most websites.
For instance, the source that referred you to our website is generally
known. Likewise, your duration on our website, and your destination
when you leave our website can also be tracked. Other common data
collected includes the type of operating system the computer you
are using to access our website has. Similarly, the type of web
browser is often noted. Again, this is common data collection,
and helps ultimately produce a better end-user experience. Cookies
are another common internet practice. Cookies are a key means
of improving user experience by allows us to customize your use
of our website. Simple information is transferred to your computer
to allow the content and experience at http://ArtsHelpDesk.com
to reflect your actions, preferences, and so on. You should simply
make the assumption our website uses cookies, and note that you
are free to make adjustments in your web browser to disable these
or otherwise receive notification of cookies so you can take whatever
desired action you so choose. Please understand that refusing
cookies may cripple some of our website features and render some
aspects useless to you. At times, you will be fully aware of information
received, as you are the direct source providing it. For instance,
you may comment on a blog post, reply to an email (whether broadcast
message or autoresponder), provide an email address, complete
a survey, requests SMS, or otherwise. Likewise, purchases necessarily
involve collecting certain information, such as credit card information,
Paypal addresses, your physical address for billing and/or shipping,
phone number, and so on. Refusing to provide some of this information
may lead to us being unable to provide you with the products or
services you’ve requested. A prime example of limited access to
our website is where some http://ArtsHelpDesk.com content may
be protected by a username and password. Whether a username and
password is generated by our website, or created by you, these
will almost always be connected with some other information related
to or connected with you. This is true since much content that
is protected on the internet is subscription based, often paid
for. Thus, the username and password must necessarily be tied
to your other account data. Usernames and passwords, by their
very nature, should be kept private.
Handling
of Personal Information
Note
that any personal information you provide to others apart from
us or our vendors is wholly optional. As an example, you might
disclose something in a blog post comment. That “private” information
is now “public,” and we have no control over that. In like fashion,
you sharing information with any other third party not functioning
as a service provider to us puts that information beyond our control
and becomes subject to the policy that party has in place. Our
primary intention for collecting personal and private information
from you is simply to conduct our business. We can use this internally
to better serve you. Accordingly, we see no reason to share your
personal information to other parties and outside interests unless
you have authorized us to do so. Of course, there are instances
where your information is stored with third party service providers,
such as email service providers, as they provide services that
are industry-leading in quality and security and are far more
beneficial to our end user than attempting such services “in-house.”
However, you are never required to deal with any such third party
directly, they are limited in how they use your information, and
they cannot sell or transfer it to others in any way. However,
of course, your information does comprise part of an overall whole.
This aggregate of information, by contrast, may be used to understand
our overall user base. Further, we may share this information
about our website visitors as a whole, not individually, with
third parties for various purposes, in our sole discretion. While
we are staunch privacy advocates at ArtsHelpDesk.com, there are
times when even we may be forced to abandon these ideals. Just
as major search engines face ongoing compulsion to provide data
against their will, so too may the same occur with our http://ArtsHelpDesk.com
website. Illegal activity or other serious acts or allegations
could create legal liability for our website. In those cases,
we reserve the right to share your information, or else may simply
be compelled to do so by law. On the other hand, there may be
times when we would need to share your private information in
order to protect our own interests. For instance, in cases of
suspected or alleged copyright infringement or other intellectual
property violations, it may be necessary to share personal information.
