ARCHIMEDES’ PRINTING SHOPPE AND SUNDRY GOODES LLC’S PRIVACY POLICY

 

Effective Date of Privacy Policy: April 15, 2019

 

Archimedes’ Printing Shoppe and Sundry Goodes’ LLC (“Archimedes,” “we,” or “our”) respects your concerns about privacy and deeply values our relationship with you.

 

This Privacy Policy describes our privacy practices with respect to information collected through our website, and any other online service that links to this Privacy Policy, including any websites and online services we operate on behalf of our authors (collectively referred to as the “Site”). By using our Site, you are accepting the practices described in this Privacy Policy.

 

If you do not agree to be bound by our Privacy Policy terms, please do not use the Site. We reserve the right to modify or amend the terms of our Privacy Policy from time to time without notice. Your continued use of our Site following the posting of changes to these terms will mean you accept those changes.

 

INFORMATION WE COLLECT ABOUT YOU

 

In conjunction with your use of the Site, we collect two basic types of information from you: (1) personal information, which is any information that individually identifies you (i.e., your name, email address, mailing address) and (2) non-personal information, which is information that does not personally identify you but may include information about your interest, demographics (e.g., age, gender, 5-digit zip code) and use of the Sites. We collect this information in the following ways:

 

 

Information You Provide Directly to Us:

 

We may ask you to provide your personal information, demographic information or information about your preferences or interests when you:

 

  • Sign up to receive email newsletters from us
  • Ask for your opinions
  • Participate in surveys or special promotions
  • Participate on social media accounts involving our authors, books, or brands
  • Submit user-generated content on any part of the Sites that permits it
  • Knowingly volunteer information on any other part of the Site (for example, if you submit submissions)

 

 

 

Information Collected Using Technology:

 

In addition to any information you provide directly to us, we and our third-party service providers may use a variety of technologies that automatically collect certain non-personal information when you interact with the Site or emails sent to you, including the following:

 

  • Device Information

 

We may collect certain information about your computer or other device that you use to access the Site, including IP address, geolocation information, unique device identifiers, browser type, browser language, and other transactional information.

 

  • Usage Information

 

We may log certain information about your use of the Site (e.g., your reading history of the pages you view, your search terms and search results) and additional “traffic data” (e.g., time of access, date of access, software crash reports, session identification number, access times, referring website addresses).

 

Cookies, Flash Cookies, and Web Beacons:

 

Like many websites, Archimedes might use web beacons or similar technologies.

 

A “web beacon” (also known as an “action tag,” “tracer tag,” or “single-pixel GIF”) is an invisible graphic that is programmed only to collect non-personal information about your use of our Site or emails we send to you. Web beacons may be used for a number of purposes, including counting the Site’s visitors, monitoring user Site navigation, counting how many emails were opened or how many links viewed, and providing you with content tailored to your interests.

 

 

California Do Not Track Notice (CalOPPA)

 

Some browsers offer a “Do Not Track” feature that lets you tell websites that you do not want to have your online activities tracked. We do not respond to these “Do Not Track” signals. At this time, we do not track your personal information about your online activities over time and across third party websites. We also do not authorize third parties to collect any personal information from you on the Sites for these purposes.

 

 

Collection of Information From Other Third Party Sources

 

We may also collect personal and non-personal information about you from other sources to, among other things, enable us to supplement the information contained in our database and to better customize your experience with Archimedes.

 

 

HOW WE USE YOUR INFORMATION

 

We use the information we learn about you to help us personalize and continually improve your Archimedes’ experience. We might use your personal and non-personal information in the following ways:

Combination of Your Information

 

We might use and/or combine information we collect off-line or from third-party sources to enhance and check the accuracy of your user records.

 

 

WITH WHOM WE SHARE YOUR INFORMATION

 

Personal Information

 

Except as disclosed in our Privacy Policy, we do not use or disclose your personal information to any companies not part of Archimedes’ business. Although, as disclosed below, we may provide your personal information to our business partners, in no event will we sell or rent your personal information as part of a customer list or similar transaction without your express permission.

 

 

 

Third-Party Service Providers

 

We have third-party service providers that perform functions on our behalf, such as hosting, marketing, analytics, customer service, fraud protection, etc. These entities have access to your personal information only as needed to perform their functions and they are obligated to maintain the confidentiality and security of that personal information. They are obligated not to use, sell, distribute or alter this information in any way other than to provide the requested services to the Site.

 

 

Other Third Parties When Required by Law or in Emergency Situations

 

We may also use or disclose personal information if required to do so by law or in the good-faith belief that such action is necessary to (a) conform to applicable law or comply with legal process served on us or the Site; (b) protect and defend our rights or property, the Site or our users, and (c) act under emergency circumstances to protect the personal safety of us, our affiliates, agents, or the users of the Site or the public.

 

Non-Personal Information

 

Nothing in this Privacy Policy is intended to restrict our use of your non-personal information, and we may disclose or share non-personal information in any manner that we deem appropriate or necessary.

 

 

CHILDREN’S PRIVACY POLICY

 

Archimedes respects the privacy of children and we are committed to complying with the Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA). This Children’s Privacy Policy describes our practices with respect to the collection of personal information from children under the age of 13. This Site does not knowingly collect, use, or disclose personal information from children under the age of 13 without prior parental consent, except as permitted by COPPA.

 

What Information We Collect and How We Use It

 

We do not require children to share any personal information in order to participate on this Site. On occasion, however, we may collect personal information, such as an email address from a child as part of an activity, in accordance with COPPA.

 

For example:

 

Email address: We may collect a child’s email address in order to respond to a one-time request from the child, such as if the child asks us or one of our authors or illustrators a question. In such case, we promptly delete the child’s email address from our system once we have responded, and we do not use the child’s email address for any other purpose.

   

Promotions and contests: We may collect a child’s email address to enter the child in a contest or to notify the child that s/he has won a contest. We will not keep the child’s email address after the promotion or use the child’s email address for any other purpose other than for the promotion. For certain promotions, we may ask that a child give us his/her parent’s email address so we can obtain more personalized information for prize fulfillment purposes if the child wins the promotion or to notify the parent if we need more than the child’s email address to enter the child in the promotion. In the latter event, parents will be sent a notice along with instructions on how they may provide their consent for their child to participate in such promotion.

 

 

We may also collect anonymous information automatically from your child’s computer or device, such as the frequency with which the child visits our Site and the pages visited, to support the internal operations of the Sites. We collect this information so we can understand and monitor usage of the Sites, customize content on the Sites and improve the performance of the Sites. This information is collected using technologies such as web beacons and similar technologies. This information is not used to behaviorally target children and we do not permit behavioral targeting on our Site directed to children.

 

Special Circumstances for Information Sharing and Security

 

We may share children’s personal information with “Third Party Service Providers” and “Other Third Parties When Required by Law” as disclosed above (see “Who We Share Your Information With”).

 

Parent’s Rights

 

Under COPPA, you have the right to review and have any of your child’s information deleted from our records. You also have the right to tell us to stop collecting or using your child’s personal information. If you have questions concerning our information practices with respect to children, or if you would like to review, have deleted, or stop the further collection of your child’s personal information in connection with the transaction for which it was originally collected, you may email us at Susan@archimedesprintingshoppe.com For tips on protecting your child’s privacy online, please see the U.S. Federal Trade Commission’s brochure on this topic: www.onguardonline.gov.

 

 

SECURITY OF YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION

 

Archimedes takes reasonable steps to help protect and secure your personal information. However, no data storage or data transmission over the Internet, or by other means, can be guaranteed to be 100% secure. Thus, Archimedes cannot ensure or warrant the security of any information you transmit to us. Therefore, you understand, acknowledge and agree that you transmit your personal information to our Sites at your own risk.

 

 

THIRD-PARTY CONTENT AND LINKS TO THIRD PARTY WEBSITES

 

Our Site may contain content hosted or served by third parties or links to websites operated by third parties. Please be advised that the practices described in this Privacy Policy for Archimedes do not apply to information gathered by these third parties. We are not responsible for the actions and privacy policies employed by any third party, and our hosting of third-party content or linking to third-party websites does not constitute an endorsement of the content or business practices of those third parties.

 

 

GOVERNING LAW

 

Archimedes’ Site is published in the United States. We attempt to protect the personal information of all users of our Site and we attempt to comply with local data protection and consumer rights laws to the extent they may apply to Archimedes’ services, but our Site is located in the United States and targeted to United States citizens and our policies are directed at compliance with U.S. law. If you are uncertain whether this Privacy Policy conflicts with the applicable local privacy laws where you are located, you should not submit your personal information to Archimedes.

 

NOTICE TO NON-U.S. USERS

 

If you are located outside the United States of America, you should be aware that your personally identifiable information will be transferred to the United States of America, the laws of which may be deemed by your country to have inadequate data protection.

 

If you are located in a country outside the United States and voluntarily submit personally identifiable information to us on the Site, you thereby consent to the general use of such information as provided in this Privacy Policy and to the transfer of that information to, and/or storage of that information in, the United States of America.

 

CHANGES TO THIS PRIVACY POLICY

 

As our Site continues to develop, we may add new services, products and features. In the event that these additions affect our Privacy Policy, or if other changes in our privacy practices or applicable laws necessitate changes to the Privacy Policy, this document will be updated accordingly. If we make a material change in the way we use your personal information, we will provide prominent notice of the change on the Site. We will not, however, materially change our policies and practices to make them less protective of personal information we have previously collected from you without your express consent.

 

 

 

HOW TO OPT-OUT OR CORRECT YOUR INFORMATION

 

You may always opt-out of receiving future commercial emails and newsletters from Archimedes.
