​

If you intend to use the Site, your use of the Site is at all times subject to the service terms contained on the Site, and this policy. You should review this policy carefully, and be sure you understand it, prior to using the Site. Using the Site is deemed to be irrevocable acceptance of this policy.

4. Personal Information Collected

​

Company may collect your personal information through the Site and from other sources in the ordinary course of business. It does not, however, collect any personal information from you through the Site, unless it is provided voluntarily. If you decide to provide your personal information, Company will only retain personal information that is appropriate to fulfil your requests or for Company's other legitimate business purposes (including, but not limited to, marketing). If you refuse to provide your personal information when requested to do so on the Site, you may not be able to access, or otherwise enjoy the benefits of, certain features of the Site.
 

5. Compliance

​

Company complies with all applicable laws relating to your personal information (including, but not limited to, the Children's Online Privacy Protection Act, if applicable to the Site). While the Site is not intended for children under 13 years of age, if the parent or guardian of a user who is a minor discovers that the minor’s personal information has been submitted to Company without the parent’s or guardian's consent, Company will use commercially reasonable efforts to remove such personal information from the Site and Company's servers at the parent’s or guardian's request. To request the removal of personal information of a minor, the parent or guardian must contact Company as set forth in Section 18, and provide, along with the request, the minor’s user name and legal name.

​

​

6. Protection of Personal Information

​

Except as provided in the immediately following sentence, Company will use commercially reasonable efforts to protect your personal information from unauthorised disclosure or destruction, loss and misuse. Certain personal information posted by you on the Site may be accessible to the general public, and Company is not responsible for protecting such information from unauthorised disclosure or destruction, loss or misuse. Since no transmission of information over the Internet or electronic storage of information is completely secure, it is possible that your personal information could be disclosed or destroyed without authorisation, lost or misused, even if Company uses such efforts. In providing personal information to Company, you must assume the risk that any such disclosure, destruction, loss or misuse could occur.

​

​

7. Use of Personal Information

​

Any personal information collected by Company may be used by it for any legitimate business purpose (including, but not limited to, marketing), unless expressly stated otherwise in this Section. Personal information that Company expressly states is collected for a specific purpose will only be retained and used for such purpose, unless you subsequently consent to its being used for another purpose. When you provide personal information to Company, whether or not for a specific purpose, Company may disclose such information to third parties (including, but is not limited to, fulfilment houses, billing services, transaction managers, credit verification services, and other third-party service providers) that Company has engaged to assist it in fulfilling your request or for other purposes permitted under this policy. Company may at any time, in its sole discretion, disclose and use any information (including, but not limited to, IP addresses), whether or not you furnished such information for a specific purpose, as appropriate to (a) comply with any applicable law or government request, (b) cooperate with law enforcement and other third parties in investigating a claim of fraud, illegal activity, or infringement of intellectual property rights, or (c) protect the rights, property or legitimate business interests of Company or a third party.
 

We may transfer the personal information we collect about you to recipients in countries other than the country in which the information originally was collected. Those countries may not have the same data protection laws as the country in which you initially provided the information. When we transfer your information to recipients in other countries (such as the U.S.), we will protect that information as described in this Privacy Policy.

If you are located in the European Economic Area (“EEA”) or Switzerland, we will comply with applicable legal requirements providing adequate protection for the transfer of personal information to recipients in countries outside of the EEA and Switzerland. With respect to transfers of personal information to the U.S., TBWA Worldwide Inc. is certified under the EU-U.S. and Swiss-U.S. Privacy Shield frameworks developed by the U.S. Department of Commerce and the European Commission and Swiss Federal Data Protection and Information Commissioner, respectively, regarding the transfer of personal information from the EEA or Switzerland to the U.S. Click here to view our EU-U.S. and Swiss-U.S. Privacy Shield Privacy Policy. We no longer rely on the EU-U.S. Privacy Shield to transfer personal information to the U.S.

Company may revise any provision of this policy from time to time by posting the revised provision on the Site, with the revised provision taking effect as of the date of such posting.
