DesignClicks Privacy Policy
COMMITMENT TO PRIVACY
DesignClicks understands the importance of protecting the privacy of DesignClicks users. The information collected on the DesignClicks website is used to market and improve the services we and our subsidiaries offer, to improve the DesignClicks web site content, and to contact you with updates to the web site or for other marketing purposes.
Certain areas of DesignClicks, including those areas used to make purchases, require registration and/or a password for access. Information obtained from registered users of these areas may also be used for DesignClicks marketing purposes, and cookies may be used in those and other areas, as is described in this Policy. Information obtained in these areas may also be used in accordance with agreements governing access to and use of the specific areas. In addition, visitors to DesignClicks will need to register for a DesignClicks Login user ID and password to use many of the interactive features on DesignClicks as well as to make a purchase or file an order from DesignClicks. Log file data and other information gathered from registered users of DesignClicks are used to improve the DesignClicks customer experience.
Visitor Information
The DesignClicks web server uses an extended log file format which captures: date and time of visit, referring address (location from which a visitor comes to DesignClicks), type of Internet browser, and visitor's IP address. (Each computer that connects to the Internet is assigned a unique number, an IP address, for identification purposes). The log file does not capture a visitor's email address.
Personal Information
Certain areas of DesignClicks ask for personal information. DesignClicks uses this personal information to aid in presenting its customers with a better interactive experience and to facilitate the customer’s ability to make purchases and orders from the DesignClicks website. To register for a login user ID, your name, address, email address, billing information, and business profile are requested. This information is collected to help us further develop our services, to provide you access to valuable DesignClicks Internet-based information and services, and to facilitate the billing process for those services if you elect to use them. Customers will have the ability to access and change the information which they have provided to DesignClicks by use of the appropriate features on the DesignClicks website.
Use of Personal Information
The information collected through this site helps us identify the type of web site content that our customers value, allowing us to market and improve the web site and our services. The information is also used to send email notifications to customers about updates to the web site, and to contact customers by other means for marketing and other purposes. Our policy is to not give, sell or otherwise distribute the information collected through this site to third parties outside of DesignClicks and its subsidiaries (unless required by law); provided, however, in some cases we may use suppliers to assist us in collecting, using or otherwise processing for our benefit the information obtained through this site. DesignClicks does use an outside shipping company to ship orders, and a credit card processing company to bill users for goods and services. Our practice is to require our suppliers and vendors to conduct themselves in a manner consistent with this policy and our requirements.
Information From Third Parties
If necessary, DesignClicks obtains consumer information from third-party providers in order to improve the accuracy of our customer database and to increase our understanding of our customers or to identify potential customers. For example, we get updated addresses from the National Change of Address (NCOA) service to assist us in having the correct addresses for our customers.
Cookies
A cookie is a series of data characters that, when programmed into a web site, is placed by the web server into the browser's application folder on your computer. Once placed onto your machine, the cookie will allow the web site to "recognize" you as a unique individual. DesignClicks uses these Coolies to personalize information for certain segments of its customer base. Secondly, in some instances, cookies are used to allow DesignClicks the opportunity to associate individual customers with their information profiles. For example, through the use of cookies, DesignClicks can "remember" your user ID when you login to DesignClicks on your computer. Should you choose to do so, cookies can be removed from your hard drive and certain web browsers can be set so that cookies are not used or saved. Please check with your browser provider for more information on removing cookies.
Links
Our sites may contain links to other sites. Please be aware that we are not responsible for the privacy practices of such other sites. We encourage our users to be aware of this fact when they leave our site and to read the privacy statements of each and every Web site that they visit which collects personally-identifiable information. This privacy statement applies solely to information collected by this web site.
Security
For the safety of our customers who are shopping online, DesignClicks always has security measures in place to protect customer information. DesignClicks takes all reasonable precautions to protect against the loss, misuse and unauthorized access of your personal information under our control. Because the security of your personal information is a high priority, we have taken numerous steps to ensure that it is processed confidentially, accurately and securely. The DesignClicks web site uses encryption technology, such as Secure Socket Layer (SSL) technology, which is supported by the vast majority of modern Internet browsers. SSL technology represents the highest level of security available on the Internet, automatically encrypting information traveling over the Internet, verifying the identity of the transacting servers through certificates and digital signatures, and confirming that the integrity of the message content is maintained throughout its transmission. DesignClicks cannot ensure or warrant the security of any information you transmit to us by e-mail, and you do so at your own risk.
Opt Out Options
DesignClicks allows customers the option to opt-out of marketing communications upon request. Once we receive your information, we may send you marketing communications that contain valuable offers, promotions and other content. However, users who no longer wish to receive our newsletter and promotional communications may opt-out of receiving these communications by following the directions contained in the communication. All marketing communications from DesignClicks will tell you how to stop receiving them. In addition, you can opt out of receiving further marketing communications from DesignClicks by the use of the Unsubscribe page on the DesignClicks website.
