PRIVACY POLICY
Last Updated: January 8, 2021
1. About Us. This Privacy Policy is provided to you by Clay 'N Cookie Café, Inc., also called Jeanne Vaccaro Pottery (the "Company"). We own and operate this website, www.jeannevaccaro.com (the "Site"), which is hosted by Wix.com, Inc. ("Wix"). If you have any questions or concerns about this Privacy Policy, or our Terms of Service, which can be found at [link] please send an email to jeannevaccaropottery@gmail.com. We would be happy to answer your questions.
2. About This Policy and Your Consent. We respect the privacy rights of our online visitors and clients, and recognize the importance of protecting the information collected. The purpose of this Privacy Policy is to guide you through how we collect, store and use the personal data you provide us with to enable you to be fully informed. By visiting our Site and using its features, you agree that you have read, understand, and consent to how we may collect and use your personal information. The Privacy Policy only applies to our Site, and when you go elsewhere on the internet, it will no longer apply. We may revise this Privacy Policy from time to time, and you can find the date this Policy was last updated at the beginning of the Policy (please see above). If you do not agree to both the Privacy Policy and the Terms of Service, then regrettably you may not access the Site or use it to purchase products.
3. Our Store. The online store available on our Site (the "Store") is hosted by a third party called Square, Inc. ("Square"). Square provides you with the e-commerce payment platform which allows you to purchase our products through the website. When you use the Store to purchase items, you will be submitting your payment information, including your name, address, email, and credit card information, to Square. They, in turn, will send us confirmation that you paid, along with other personal information you submitted to them so we may ship your purchased items. The Company does not view, receive, transmit, or store your full credit card number when you use Square to pay. Square is a separate company, so their privacy policy will apply to any information you submit to them instead of this Privacy Policy. If you would like to review Square's privacy policy, please visit their website www.squareup.com.
4. Collection and Use of Personal Information. We will take reasonable care to maintain appropriate safeguards to ensure the security, integrity and privacy of the information you have provided us with. Information we receive from you or from Square such as your name, e-mail address, mailing address, and purchase history in the Store may be used to directly communicate with you. We may send you order confirmations or updates, newsletters, promotions, or special offers by e-mail. We may also use your information to send you Site-related emails (e.g., changes or updates to the Site, and technical and security notices). If you prefer not to receive email messages from us, please let us know and we will remove you from the mailing list. We do not sell or share your personal information to third parties including marketing companies. We may obtain and disclose personal information to third parties (including intermediaries) as necessary to process any order or provide any service to you, including carrying out any checks, processing or recovery of any payment, carrying out delivery of any goods or exchanges or collection of any returns, or to enforce or administer any contract or deal with any claims.
5. Use of Cookies and Tracking Technologies. Certain types of usage information may be automatically collected by the Site when you visit. When you use the Site, we may send one or more cookies to your computer. Cookies are small text files containing a string of characters that identify your browser and facilitate the log in process and make your browsing experience in the Site easier. The Site may also utilize device identifiers, which may provide information about the device and software you are using to access the Site, and analytical information about which pages you visit, and your activities on the Site. Some features of the Site may not function properly if the use or availability of tracking technologies is limited or disabled by your device or browser settings.
6. Storing and Protection Your Information. The security of your personal information is very important to us. We take reasonable security measures to protect against unauthorized access to and unlawful interception or processing of the personal information we receive. However, we cannot make any express representations or warranties about the security of any information transmitted by you to us or to Square, or collected through the Site by Wix. We are not responsible for any third party's operation or security measures, including those of Square. In the event any information under the Company's control is compromised as a result of a breach of confidence, we will take all reasonable measures to investigate the situation and if appropriate, notify those users or other individuals whose information may have been compromised and take other measures according to the applicable laws, regulations and codes.
