Legal / Privacy Information
Thank You for Visiting Art Varsity
By using this website, you agree to abide by the following terms and conditions. Art Varsity may change this Privacy Policy and User Agreement (Agreement) from time to time, based upon any changes to this website and our users’ experience on it.
Privacy Policy
Art Varsity respects the privacy of visitors to this website. This policy describes how and when we gather information from visitors to our website.
Aggregate Information
We generally record certain usage information, such as the number and frequency of visitors to this website. This information may include the websites that you access immediately before and after your visit to our website, the Internet browser you are using, and your IP address. If we use such data at all, it will be on an aggregate basis, and we will not disclose to third parties any information that could be used to identify you personally.
Cookies and Web Beacons
Like most websites, we use cookies to store information, such as your personal preferences when you visit our site. We also show third party advertisements on artvarsity.com to support the site.
Some advertisers may use cookies and/or web beacons when they advertise on our site which also send these advertisers (such as Google AdSense) information. This information may include your IP address, your ISP, the browser you used to visit the website, and in some cases, browser enhancements you have installed such as the Flash Player. This information is generally used for geo-targeting purposes (showing ads relevant to your location) or for showing certain ads based on specific sites you have visited (ads relevant to your interests).
You can choose to disable or selectively turn off cookies in your browser settings, or by managing the cookie preferences in your internet security software. But doing so may affect how you are able to interact with our site as well as other websites. This could include the inability to login to services or programs, such as logging into forums or accounts.
Personally Identifiable Information
If you voluntarily submit information to our website, for example, in a request for general information or to perform a business transaction, we may record and use any personally identifiable information, such as your name, phone number and e-mail address, for reasonable business purposes including, but not limited to, fulfilling your request. We will not use your personally identifiable information for any other purpose without your permission.
We may use internal service providers to operate our website and employ other persons to perform work on our behalf, such as sending postal mail and e-mail, the marketing of our website, our products and services, and for processing payments or other business transactions. These persons may have access to the personally identifiable information you submit through the website, but only for the purpose of performing their duties. These persons may not use your personally identifiable information for any other purpose.
We will not provide any personally identifiable information to any other persons, except if we are required to make disclosures to the government or private parties in connection with a lawsuit, subpoena, investigation or similar proceeding. We can (and you authorize us to) disclose any such information in those circumstances.
Business Transfers
As we continue to develop our business, we might sell or buy subsidiaries, or business units. In such transactions, customer information generally is one of the transferred business assets but remains subject to the promises made in any pre-existing Privacy Notice (unless, of course, the customer consents otherwise). Also, in the event that Art Varsity, or substantially all of its assets are acquired, customer information will of course be one of the transferred assets.
