What information does VinStickers, LLC collect from me?

What are cookies and how does VinStickers, LLC use them?
As part of offering and providing customizable and personalized services, many Web
sites use cookies to store and sometimes track information about you. A cookie is
a small amount of data that is sent to your browser from a Web server and stored
on your computer's hard drive. We use cookies to allow faster and easier access
to your account information, monitor traffic on the site and measure traffic patterns
to improve functionality. VinStickers, LLC Web pages may in
the future contain electronic images known as Web beacons (sometimes called
clear giffs or Web bugs) or other advanced technologies that are useful in the provision
of services to you. We may use such devices to verify compliance with our
terms and conditions of use or with any promotions on the site.
How does VinStickers, LLC use the information?
VinStickers, LLC' primary goal in collecting information is to improve
the site and provide the user with the best possible experience on the site. For
example, by using the information collected, we are able to provide you with an
easy to use and readily available forum to access your VinStickers, LLC
account information. We will also use your personal information to notify
you of other products or services available from VinStickers, LLC
and its affiliates.
Only VinStickers, LLC and its affiliates will have access to individuals'
account information. We also may do research on our users' demographics and behavior
based on the information provided to us upon registration, gathered from transaction
activity, from our server log files or from surveys. This research may be compiled,
analyzed or sold on an aggregated basis, which does not include information identifying
individual users. VinStickers, LLC also may share this aggregated
data with business partners or other third parties.
Who is collecting information?
When you are on a VinStickers, LLC site and are asked for personal
information, you are sharing that information with VinStickers, LLC
and its affiliates and service providers. If personal data is to be collected and/or
maintained by any company other than VinStickers, LLC or its affiliates,
we will attempt to notify you on the Web site or in an updated version of this Privacy
Policy. If you do not want your data to be shared, you can choose not to allow the
transfer by not using that particular service.
Please be aware that other Web sites to which we link may collect personally identifiable
information about you when you visit those sites. The information practices of other
Web sites linked to our Web sites are not covered by this Privacy Policy.
With whom does VinStickers, LLC share my information?
We will not disclose any of your personally identifiable information except when
we have your permission or under special circumstances, such as when we believe
in good faith that the law requires it or under the circumstances described below.
The following describes some of the ways that your information may be disclosed.
Data in the Aggregate: We may disclose “blinded” aggregated data and user
statistics to prospective partners and other third parties, and for other lawful
purposes. Blinded data is data which does not identify an individual person.
Other: We also may disclose account information in special cases when we
have reason to believe that disclosing this information is necessary to identify,
contact or bring legal action against someone who may be violating VinStickers, LLC' Terms and Conditions of Use, or may otherwise be causing injury to
or interference with (either intentionally or unintentionally) VinStickers, LLC' rights or property, other VinStickers, LLC Web site
users or customers, or anyone else that could be harmed by such activities. We may
disclose or access account information when we believe in good faith that the law
requires it and for administrative and other purposes that we deem necessary to
maintain, service and improve our products and services.
We occasionally hire other companies to provide limited services on our behalf,
including packaging and mailing, answering customer questions about products or
services, sending postal mail, providing investor information and processing data.
We will only provide those companies the information they need to deliver the service,
and they are prohibited from using that information for any other purpose.
As we continue to develop our business, we may buy or sell businesses or assets.
In such transactions, confidential customer information generally is one of the
transferred business assets. In the event of a transaction involving the sale of
some or all of VinStickers, LLC’ businesses, customer and site visitor
information may be one of the transferred assets.
How can I control my personal information?
VinStickers, LLC offers its customers choices for the collection,
use and sharing of personal information. You may contact us at support@vinstickers.com
if you wish to view, edit or delete your personal information from our database,
and we will use commercially reasonable efforts to accommodate your request.
How does VinStickers, LLC protect financial-related information?
Keeping your personal financial information private is vitally important to us.
As a matter of policy and long time business practice, VinStickers, LLC
does not sell information provided by its customers. Any user statistics that
we may provide to prospective partners regarding financial matters are provided
in the aggregate only and do not include any personally identifiable information
about any individual user. We will transfer your credit card number, bank
account number or other personal information to the appropriate credit card company
or bank in order to process any online payments.
What security precautions are in place to protect the loss, misuse or alteration
of my information?
Your VinStickers, LLC Account Information and VinStickers, LLC Profile are password-protected so you have access to this personal
information. We use encryption technology for credit card numbers, bank account
numbers, passwords and registration information. Remember to sign out of your
VinStickers, LLC account and close your browser window when you have
finished your work. This is to ensure that others cannot access your account by
using your computer when you are away from it. Because of the global nature of the
Internet, when you give us information, that information may be sent electronically
to servers outside of the country where you originally entered the information.
Unfortunately, no data transmission over the Internet can be guaranteed to be 100%
secure. Except as discussed above or otherwise designated, this site does not use
security encryption measures. Therefore, information that you disclose by
use of this site (as with any site that is non-secure), by posting a message or
using email, potentially could be collected and used by others. This may
result in unsolicited messages from third parties or use of such information by
third parties for their own purposes, legal or illegal. As a result, while we strive
to protect your personal information, VinStickers, LLC cannot ensure
or warrant the security of any information you transmit to us or from our services,
and you do so at your own risk. Once we receive your transmission, we use commercially
reasonable efforts to ensure its security on our systems.
Choice/Opt-out
Our website provides users the opportunity to opt-out of receiving communications
from us at the point where we request information about you. Where indicated just
click on "I choose not to receive future communications" when completing a survey
or other form.
To ensure that you will not receive recurring marketing information from us unless
you choose to, we will provide you with simple instructions on each marketing email
from VinStickers, LLC for you to let us know that you have chosen
to stop receiving such emails from us.
What else should I know about my privacy?
Please keep in mind that whenever you voluntarily disclose information online, that
information is accessible to other customers and users. Ultimately, you are solely
responsible for maintaining the secrecy of your passwords and/or any account information.
Please be careful and responsible whenever you are online.
When you or we end your customer relationship with us, we will treat the information
we have about you as if you were still our customer.
