CookiesA cookie is a small amount of data, which often includes an anonymous unique identifier, that is sent to your browser from a web site's computers and stored on your computer's hard drive. You can configure your browser to accept all cookies, reject all cookies, or notify you when a cookie is set. If you reject all cookies, you will not be able to use Art Anywhere products or services that require you to "sign in," and you may not be able to take full advantage of the Art Anywhere service. Art Anywhere uses its own cookies for a number of purposes, including to: Access your information when you "sign in"; keep track of preferences you specify while you are using Art Anywhere's services; display the most appropriate advertising banners, based on your interests and activity on Art Anywhere; estimate and report Art Anywhere's total audience size and traffic; conduct research to improve Art Anywhere's content and services. Art Anywhere cookies do not collect personal information, and Art Anywhere does not combine information collected through cookies with other personal information to tell us who you are or what your username or email address is.
Tracking TechnologiesWe may employ non-personally identifiable technology such as clear gifs (a.k.a. Web Beacons/Web Bugs), that help us better manage content on our site by informing us what content is effective. Clear gifs are tiny graphics with a unique identifier, similar in function to cookies, and are used to track the online movements of Web users. In contrast to cookies, which are stored on a user's computer hard drive, clear gifs are embedded invisibly on Web pages and are about the size of the period at the end of this sentence. We do not tie the information gathered by clear gifs to your personally identifiable information. The use of cookies by our third party tracking partners is not covered by our privacy statement. We do not have access or control over these cookies. Our partners use session ID cookies to support our site functionality such as web analytics reporting.
Information Sharing and DisclosureWhen you post a message, your Art Anywhere ID or alias is visible to other users. If you post personal information online that is accessible to the public, you may receive unsolicited messages from other parties in return. Art Anywhere may be required to disclose personally identifiable information under special circumstances, such as to comply with subpoenas or when your actions violate the Art Anywhere Terms of Use. Art Anywhere may disclose personally identifiable information to parties in compliance with Art Anywhere's Copyright and Intellectual Property Policy, as Art Anywhere in Art Anywhere's sole discretion believes necessary or appropriate in connection with an investigation of fraud, intellectual property infringement, piracy, or other unlawful activity. In such events, Art Anywhere may disclose name, street address, city, state, zip code, country, phone number, email address and company name. Art Anywhere may share aggregated demographic information with business partners.
Art Anywhere is affiliated with a variety of businesses and works closely with them. These businesses may operate stores on the Art Anywhere website or sell items to you from the Art Anywhere website. Art Anywhere may also provide services or sell products jointly with affiliated businesses. Due to the nature of Art Anywhere's business model, when an affiliated business is associated with your transaction, you will share customer information that is related to such transaction with that affiliated business.
Art Anywhere employs other companies and people to perform tasks on our behalf and needs to share your information with them to provide products and services to you. Examples include but are not limited to fulfilling orders, handling billing disputes and collections, analyzing data, providing marketing assistance and providing customer service.
Art Anywhere will not rent, sell, or share personal information about you with nonaffiliated parties except as specified in this Privacy Policy to provide products or services you have requested or when Art Anywhere has your permission. It may be necessary to share information in order to investigate, prevent, or take action regarding illegal activities, suspected fraud, situations involving potential threats to the physical safety of any person, violations of Art Anywhere's Terms of Use, as specified in this Privacy Policy or as otherwise required by law. In some cases, Art Anywhere may choose to buy or sell assets. In these types of transactions, customer information is typically one of the business assets that is transferred. Art Anywhere will transfer information about you if Art Anywhere is acquired by or merged with another company. In this event, Art Anywhere will notify you by email or by putting a prominent notice on the Art Anywhere web site before information about you is transferred and becomes subject to a different privacy policy.
As part of the buying and selling process, you may obtain another Art Anywhere user's email address, shipping address and/or other information. Pursuant to Art Anywhere's Terms of Use, you have a limited license to use this information. This information should only be used for Art Anywhere-related communications or for Art Anywhere-facilitated transactions. Art Anywhere has not granted you a license to use the information for unsolicited commercial messages. Without limiting the foregoing, without express consent from the user, you are not licensed to add any Art Anywhere user to your email or physical mail list.
Without limiting the above, in an effort to respect your privacy and Art Anywhere's ability to keep the community free from bad actors, Art Anywhere will not otherwise disclose your personal information to law enforcement, other government officials, or other third parties without a subpoena, court order, legal process, or substantially similar legal procedure, except when Art Anywhere believes in good faith that the disclosure of information is necessary to protect Art Anywhere's rights, prevent imminent physical harm or financial loss, or to report suspected illegal activity.
Forums / Chat RoomsIf you use a forum or chat room on this site, including our Support forums, you should be aware that any personally identifiable information you submit there can be read, collected, or used by others or could be used to send you unsolicited messages. Art Anywhere is not responsible for the personally identifiable information you choose to submit in these forums.
Third PartiesExcept as otherwise expressly included in this Privacy Policy, this document addresses only the use and disclosure of information Art Anywhere collects from you. If you disclose your information to others, whether they are buyers or sellers on Art Anywhere or throughout the internet, different rules may apply to their use or disclosure of the information you disclose to them. Art Anywhere does not control the privacy policies of third parties, and you are subject to the privacy policies of those third parties where applicable. Art Anywhere is not responsible for the privacy or security practices of other websites on the Internet, even those linked to or from the Art Anywhere site. Art Anywhere encourages you to ask questions before you disclose your personal information to others.
Editing and Deleting Account InformationYou can change your Art Anywhere Account Information (except your username), at any time. Art Anywhere may send you certain communications relating to the Art Anywhere service, such as service-related announcements and administrative messages that are considered part of your Art Anywhere account. You can delete your Art Anywhere account by emailing support@ArtAnywhere.com. Please note that your identification, billing and contact information may remain in Art Anywhere's records for some period.
Art Anywhere limits access to personal information about you to employees who Art Anywhere believes reasonably need to come into contact with that information to provide products or services to you or in order to do their jobs. Your Art Anywhere Account Information is password-protected.

You may delete or deactivate your account by emailing Customer Support at support@ArtAnywhere.com or by postal mail at the contact information listed below.

SecurityThe security of your personal information is important to us. Your Art Anywhere account information is protected by a password for your privacy and security. You need to work to protect against unauthorized access to your password and to your computer by signing off once you have finished using a shared computer. When you enter sensitive information (such as credit card number) for registration Art Anywhere encrypts that information using secure socket layer technology (SSL). Art Anywhere follows generally accepted industry standards to protect the personal information submitted to us, both during transmission and once Art Anywhere receives it. No method of transmission over the Internet, or method of electronic storage, is 100% secure. Therefore, while Art Anywhere strives to use commercially acceptable means to protect your personal information, Art Anywhere cannot guarantee its absolute security. If you have any questions about security on Art Anywhere's Web site, you can email Art Anywhere at support@ArtAnywhere.com.
Changes to this Privacy PolicyIf the privacy policy is changed, Art Anywhere will post changes so that you are aware of those changes. Art Anywhere reserves the right to modify this privacy statement at any time, so please review it frequently. If Art Anywhere makes material changes to this policy you will be notified here, by email, or other places Art Anywhere deems appropriate.
