Information Collection Technology (Web Beacons and Cookies)

We may use various technologies to collect information from your electronic device about your activities on the Site. We may collect and store non-personally identifying information through cookies, log files, clear gifs (commonly known as “web beacons”), and third-parties to profile user activity and preferences. Technical and specification information about your browser and computer is automatically collected when you use or visit the Site. This information may include your Internet Protocol (“IP”) address, your browser type, operating system, access time(s), the content of previously accepted “cookies” from us, and the website address that referred you to the Site.

A cookie is data stored on your computer that tracks non-personal information about you. You may view our Cookie Policy by clicking here. When you use the Site, we may assign your computer one or more cookies that enable us to improve the quality of the Services and to personalize your experience. Cookies allow us to automatically collect information about your activity on the Site, such as the content you access while on the Site, the links you click, and other activity you conduct while using the Site. You may choose to modify your web browser’s setting to disable cookies or limit their use.

The Site may contain web beacons (also known as “clear gifs”) or similar technologies that gather non-personally identifiable information about your use of the Site. Such technology may also be contained in e-mail messages or newsletters from us that allow us to determine whether messages have been accessed.

Personal Information About Users Under 18 Years of Age Not Collected

The Site is meant for adults and those who have reached the age of majority as defined by the laws of their domicile. The Site is not meant for individuals under the age of eighteen (18) or those defined by the laws of their domicile as minors. Nonetheless, this Privacy Policy is still designed to comply with the Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act (“COPPA”) to the extent COPPA applies. Accordingly, we do not knowingly collect or retain any personal information about users under the age of thirteen (13). If we obtain actual knowledge that we collected or retained personal information about a child under the age of thirteen (13), that information will be promptly deleted from our database, servers, and all other media. Since we do not collect information from users under 13 years old, no such information is disclosed to third-parties.

If parents or guardians wish to create an account for, and provide information related to, their child who is under the age of eighteen (18), the parent or guardian may do so, but assumes full responsibility for ensuring that the information is kept secure and that the information submitted is accurate. In creating such an account, the parent or guardian accepts that this Privacy Policy will apply to the minor child’s information.

Information Others May Collect

Information Use and Sharing

We may use and share your information for any legally permissible purpose.

• providing you with products or services;
• providing you with customized content and services;

Wire Design Company reserves all rights to defend, within its sole discretion, against such legal requests, demands, and claims. For instance, Wire Design Company may raise or waive legal objections or rights. Wire Design Company also reserves the right to disclose your information, as allowed by applicable law, when we believe it is reasonably appropriate based on the situation.

Additionally, Wire Design Company will take reasonable steps to limit the access to such social security numbers and take legally required steps to secure the transmission of the data containing such social security numbers.

Third Party Privacy Policies May Be Applicable

This Privacy Policy does not cover any third party’s use or handling of your information once it is shared. Instead, the privacy policies of the third party(ies) will govern. We encourage you to visit the websites of those third-parties and fully read and understand their privacy policies. Some of these entities or their servers may be located outside the United States.

Links

The Site may contain links to other websites. Wire Design Company disclaims any responsibility for the privacy practices of third-parties that may have links to or from our website, or any framed content on our website. We encourage you to review the privacy policies/statements of every website that you visit that collects personally identifiable information. In particular, Wire Design Company disclaims any responsibility for the privacy practices of Printful, who may obtain some of your provided information in the shipping process, and we encourage you to review the privacy policies/statements of their website.

Do not Track Requests

In some states, users may be entitled to know how we respond to “Do Not Track” browser settings. There is little consensus in the industry about what “Do Not Track” means; however, we recognize “Do Not Track” signals as an opt-out for the sharing of your data with third parties. We take good faith efforts to comply with any “Do Not Track” request; however, you may still need to contact any third-party companies (including those who may have cookies or beacons on the Site) to direct them to not share your data with third parties. To learn more or opt-out from data collection by third-party companies you can visit: http://www.networkadvertising.org/choices or www.aboutads.info/choices/

Even if you are using a browser with a “Do Not Track” setting, we will continue to utilize the data you provide to us to fulfill your orders, which includes sharing data with our partners, such as Printful. If you do not want your data to be shared, we are unable to fulfill your orders and you hereby agree to not submit any personal information to us.

Opt-Out Provisions and Updating Your Information

We value our users’ privacy and provide them with the option to “opt-out” of having their information used for purposes not directly related to the Site. The opt-out option is available at the time you sign up for your account on the Site. If you wish to change your opt-out preference or update your information after you initially sign up for your account, you can opt-out by any of the following means:

Your request will generally be responded to within ten (10) business days if your request is via e-mail, or thirty (30) days if your request is via United States mail.

Please note that changing your opt-out preference will only affect future activities or communications from us. In other words, if we already provided your information to a third party before you changed your opt-out preferences, you will need to contact the third party directly. To opt-out of communications from our third party business partners, if any, please contact them directly.

Information Retention and Security

We may store your information for more than one (1) year from the time of initial submission, as well as automated personal information we collect about you. However, if we obtain or collect your credit card number, that information will only be stored for a limited time pursuant to your authorization unless the law requires otherwise.

We take reasonable security measures to protect users’ information against unauthorized access, loss, alteration, or destruction. These measures include encryption and physical security measures to guard against unauthorized access to systems where we store personal information, and the usage of reputable third-party vendors. Despite these reasonable measures, we cannot guarantee our security measures are impenetrable. Therefore, although we take reasonable steps to secure your information, we cannot and do not promise or warrant that your information will always remain secure.
