This Privacy Policy (“Privacy Policy”) explains the policy regarding the collection, use and disclosure of your personal information for PictureCode LLC (referred to in these terms as “PictureCode”, “we”, “us” or “our”) and the picturecode.com websites and pages (collectively, the “Site”).

As we update and expand our services, this Privacy Policy may change, so please refer back to it periodically. By accessing our Site or otherwise using our services, you consent to our information practices.

Information Collection, Use, and Sharing

When you purchase an item through our online store, or if a service on the Site requires registration, you will be required to provide certain personally identifiable information. Personally identifiable information means information that can be used to identify and contact you such as your name, email address, password, postal mailing/delivery address, payment method, and telephone number, as well as other information when such information is combined with your personal information.

In addition to the personally identifiable information that we collect from you during the registration process, we may collect data about you from your use of the Site or that you voluntarily provide to us via email or other communications from you.

We may use your personally identifiable information to register you to use the services on the Site; verify your authority to enter the Site and access the services on the Site; respond to you regarding communications that you have sent us; improve the content and general administration of the Site and the services on the Site; fulfill your requests; and provide you with notices regarding the services that you have purchased or may wish to purchase in the future and to send you targeted advertising. We will not share your information with any third party outside of our organization other than as specified in this Privacy Policy.

Cookies

We may use “cookies” on our Site. A cookie is a piece of data stored on a Site visitor’s hard drive to help us improve your access to our Site and identify repeat visitors to our Site. For instance, we may use a temporary cookie to manage your shopping cart and other information during the checkout process of our online store. Cookies can also enable us to track and target the interests of our users to enhance the experience on our Site. However, we do not currently utilize any third-party tracking services.

Aggregate Information

The Site may track aggregated data about its users in order to determine the total number of visitors to our Site, the number of visitors to each page of our Site, IP addresses, external third party websites linked to, and other relevant data. We may analyze this data for trends and statistics in the aggregate, but such information will be maintained, used and disclosed in aggregate form only and it will not contain personally identifiable information. We may use such aggregate information to analyze trends and for statistical purposes related to user preferences, administer the Site, track users’ movement, target advertising and promotions and gather broad demographic information for aggregate use. We may also disclose aggregate information to third parties for those third parties’ marketing purposes on the Site.

Children’s Privacy

Company recognizes the privacy interests of children, and we encourage parents and guardians to take an active role in their children’s online activities and interests. Our services and the Site are not intended for children under the age of 13, and we endeavor not to collect any personally identifiable information from children under the age of 13. We target our services and this Site to adults and not to children under 13.

How We May Disclose Your Personal Data to Third Parties

We will disclose your personally identifiable information in the following cases: (a) if we reasonably believe we are required to do so by law, regulation or other government authority, or respond to claims that a listing or other content violates the right of others, (b) to enforce or to protect our rights, (c) to protect the safety of users of the Site and services, or (d) to a successor entity upon a merger, consolidation or other corporate reorganization in which we participate or to a purchaser of all or substantially all of our assets to which this Site relates.

Links to Third-Party Sites

The Site may contain links to other sites. Please be aware that we are not responsible for the content or privacy practices of such other sites. We encourage our users to be aware when they leave our Site and to read the privacy statements of any other site that collects personally identifiable information.

Security

We do not store credit card numbers on any Site server. All such information is stored by our credit card processing partners, who are obligated to store such information using secure methods.

We may employ procedural and technological measures such as firewalls, password hashes, and secure socket layer, to safeguard the confidentiality of your personally identifiable information. Such measures are reasonably designed to help protect your personally identifiable information from loss, unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration or destruction. Unfortunately, no security system can be guaranteed to be 100% secure. Accordingly, we cannot guarantee the security of your personal information and cannot assume liability for improper access to it. By using our services, including our Site, or providing personal information to us through any means, you agree that we can communicate with you electronically regarding security, privacy, and administrative issues relating to your use of the services.
