This Policy applies only to our online information gathering and does not apply to offline activities or any third-party websites or applications that may link or be accessible from our Sites.

 Please note that our Website is hosted by Squarespace.  We, therefore, refer you to https://www.squarespace.com/privacy

 CHILDREN UNDER 13

Our Sites are intended for a general adult audience and not targeted or intended for children under the age of 13.  Accordingly, we do not knowingly or intentionally collect personal information from children. If we learn that we have collected or received personal information from a child under 13, we will delete that information.  If you believe that a child has provided us with personal information, please contact our Privacy Compliance Officer at contact@artspacesf.com

 INFORMATION WE GATHER AND USE

ArtSpaceSf collects certain user information to help us provide you a better service. We collect information directly from you, like when you create an account or make a purchase, and automatically as you interact through the Sites, including your computer’s internet protocol address. Information You Give Us:  The term “Personal Information” means information that is used to identify you as an individual person.  It may include first and last name, billing and shipping address, telephone number, credit card information, and/or email address. We collect Personal Information directly from you when you do any of the following:  

 

  • Sign up for discounts

  • Subscribe to our newsletter

  • Purchase our product or service

  • Communicate with us directly

  • Report a problem or issue with our sites

​We also collect information about you through the transactions you carry out through our Sites and in the fulfillment of our services, and your preferences, special requests, and information about the devices used to complete the transaction.

ArtSpaceSf offers users the ability to purchase goods or services. In the event you purchase goods or services requiring payment, we will request credit card or other payment account information. Payment is processed through third-party gateway providers (e.g., PayPal, SquareUp).  These gateway providers securely transfer your credit card information to our payment vendors, which is never stored on any of our servers.

 Our company is hosted on the Squarespace.com platform. Squarespace.com provides us with an online platform that allows us to sell our products and services to you. Your data may be stored through Squarespace.com’s data storage, databases, and the general Squarespace.com applications. They store your data on secure servers behind a firewall. 

All direct payment gateways adhere to PCI-DSS standards that are managed by the PCI Security Standards Council.  These standards and requirements help safeguard the secure handling of credit card information by us and its service providers. Third-party service providers, such as payment gateways, adhere to their own privacy policies regarding the information we provide to them with respect to your purchase. We recommend that you read the privacy policies of these providers (Squarespace, SquareUp) so that you can understand how your information is handled by them.

  If you publicly provide, post, or share information about yourself on any public areas of our Sites, such as product reviews, social media, or blogs, that we may have, then it may be accessible to the general public, and you do so at your own risk. We cannot control the actions of other users of the Sites or what they may do with that information.

 We will retain the Personal Information that you provide for so long as is necessary to fulfill its purpose.

 Information Collected Automatically: When you browse and interact with our Sites, we may automatically collect information that does not personally identify you but that is about you and/or your equipment, through the use of data collection technology. We use this information to help us learn about your browser and operating system, to collect information about your online activities over time and across third-party websites or other online services (behavioral tracking), to provide targeted ads, and to provide you with a personalized experience.

 Automated information includes information about your computer’s internet protocol (IP) address, your location based upon your IP address, browser type, internet connection, domain name, operating system, the equipment you used to access our Site, gender, and usage details including specific pages you have browsed and time spent on those pages, the web page that you visited before accessing the Site, search terms, location data, and links on the Site that you clicked.  

 We use various technologies to collect information, such as cookies and web beacons. A cookie is a small file placed on the hard drive of your computer.  Most browsers automatically accept cookies. If you prefer, you can set your browser to block them. However, if you select this setting you may be unable to access certain parts of our Website. Web beacons are small electronic files (also known as clear gifs, pixel tags, and single-pixel gifs) that convey information when a user visits the pages of our Sites and open an email. Web beacons permit us, for example, to count users who have visited those pages or identify who has opened an email, and for other related website statistics (for example, recording the popularity of certain website content and verifying system and server integrity).

 Third-Party Analytical Tools and Advertising

We use analytical tools, such as Google Analytics, which uses cookies to track and analyze how users interact with our Sites and the source of the traffic to our Sites. You can find out more about how these tools use your data by clicking the links here: Google. You can opt-out of making your site activity available to Google Analytics by installing the Google Analytics Opt-Out Browser Add-On found here.  

 If you prefer, you can opt out of seeing these ads. For more information on opting out of Google Ads, click here. For more information on opting out of Facebook ads, click here. For more information about Instagram ads, click here. For more information about targeted ads, visit the Network Advertising Initiative (NAI) website here.  You can also learn about opting out of interested-based ads at the NAI here. For more information about opting out of ads targeted to your mobile device, click here.  If you are accessing the Sites from Canada, please visit the DAAC opt-out page here.

 Opting out of interest-based ads does not mean you will stop seeing ads. Rather, the ads will not be targeted to you based on your interests.  Since these opt-outs are cookie-based, you will need to repeat the opt-out procedures if you clear your cookies at any time.

 We do not control these third parties tracking technologies, how they may be used, or the information they collect. This Policy does not govern the collection of information by those third parties.  We are not responsible for the privacy policies of these third parties. Please refer to the privacy policies of those companies to determine how they collect and use your information.

 DO NOT TRACK DISCLOSURE

Do Not Track (DNT) is a privacy setting in your web browser that when turned on, disables a web application from tracking a user.  See All About Do Not Track.  At this time there are no universal standards on recognizing DNT signals, and therefore, we do not respond to “Do Not Track” signals from your browser.
