We take your right to privacy seriously, and want you to feel comfortable using this web site. This privacy policy deals with personally-identifiable information (referred to as “data” below) that may be collected by us while you use this site. This policy does not apply to other entities that are not owned or controlled by Höglund Art Glass, nor does it apply to persons that are not employees or agents of ours, or that are not under our control. Please also take time to read our site’s Terms of use.
1. Collection of data
We use a double-opt-in process for our newsletter signup. The only data you are required to provide is a valid email address. We do not rent, share or sell email addresses provided to us by our site visitors. Should we enable site registration features for an account on this site we require only a valid e-mail address and a user name that has not been chosen already. You are not required to provide any other information if you do not want to. Please be aware that the user name you choose, or the e-mail address you provide and any other information you enter may render you personally identifiable, and may possibly be displayed on this web site intentionally (depending on choices you make during the registration process, or in the course of you choosing to submit comments to our news articles) or unintentionally (subsequent to a successful act of intrusion by a third party – although we make a committed effort to keep our site secure). As on many web sites, we may also automatically receive general information that is contained in server log files, such as your IP address, and cookie information. Information about how advertising may be served on this site (if we ever choose to display advertising) is set forth below.
2. Use of data
Data may be used to customise and improve your user experience on our site. Efforts will be made to prevent your data being made available to third parties unless (i) provided for otherwise in this Privacy Policy; (ii) your consent is obtained, such as when you choose to opt-in or opt-out for the sharing of data; (iii) a service provided on our site requires interaction with a third party, or is provided by a third party, such as an application service provider; (iv) pursuant to legal action or law enforcement; (v) it is found that your use of this site violates the site editor’s policy, terms of service, or other usage guidelines, or if it is deemed reasonably necessary by the site editor to protect the site editor’s legal rights and/or property; or (vi) this site is purchased by a third party, in which case that third party will be able to use the data in the same manner as set forth in this policy. In the event you choose to use links displayed on this web site to visit other web sites, you are advised to read the privacy policies published on those sites.
3. Cookies
Like many web sites, this web site sets and uses cookies to enhance your user experience — to remember your personal settings, for instance. Advertisements may display on this web site and, if so, may set and access cookies on your computer; such cookies are subject to the privacy policy of the parties providing the advertisement. However, the parties providing the advertising do not have access to this site’s cookies. These parties usually use non-personally-identifiable or anonymous codes to obtain information about your visits to this site. You can visit the Network Advertising Initiative if you want to find out more information about this practice, and to learn about your options.
4. Minors
Our site is not targeted at the young. We assume all purchasers of our products are legally permitted to purchase, or that they have the support and consent of a parent or guardian.
5. Editing or deleting your account information
We may provide you with the ability to edit the information stored for your user account information during registration or at any time, you can request that your user account be deleted; to do so, please contact us. Content or other data that you may have provided, and that is not stored within your user account, such as comments published, may continue to remain on the site at the site editor’s discretion, even after your user account is deleted. Please see the site’s Terms of use for more information.
6. Changes to this privacy policy
Changes may be made to this policy from time to time. You will be notified of substantial changes to this policy either by through the posting of a prominent announcement on the site, and/or by a mail message sent to the e-mail address you have provided, which may be stored within your account settings.
7. NO GUARANTEES
While this privacy policy states standards for maintenance of data, and while efforts will be made to meet the said standards, the site editor is not in a position to guarantee compliance with these standards. There may be factors beyond the site editor’s control that may result in disclosure of data. Consequently, the site editor offers no warranties or representations as regards maintenance or non-disclosure of data.
