WHAT PERSONAL INFORMATION DO WE COLLECT? 

When you visit the Site, we automatically collect certain information about your device, including information about your web browser, IP address, location, time zone, and some of the cookies that are installed on your device. Additionally, as you browse the Site, we collect information about the individual web pages or products that you view, what websites or search terms referred you to the Site, and information about how you interact with the Site. We refer to this automatically-collected information as “Device Information.” For the avoidance of doubt, please note that certain other third parties such as our service providers may also collect this information about you either directly or from your interaction with the Site.  

We collect Device Information using the following technologies:

- “Cookies” are data files that are placed on your device or computer when you visit a site and often include an anonymous unique identifier. Cookies do a lot of different jobs, like remembering user preferences, and are generally used to improve the user experience. For more information about cookies, and how to disable cookies, visit http://www.allaboutcookies.org.

- “Log files” track actions occurring on the Site, and collect data including your IP address, browser type, Internet service provider, referring/exit pages, and date/time stamps.

Additionally, when you make a purchase or attempt to make a purchase through the Site, we collect certain information that you voluntarily provide to us, including your name, billing address, shipping address, payment information (including credit card numbers), email address, and phone number. We refer to this information as “Order Information.”

When we talk about “Personal Information” in this Privacy Policy, we are specifically talking about both Device Information and Order Information.  

HOW DO WE USE YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION?

The Personal Information we, or our third-party service providers, collect is generally used to fulfill orders placed through the Site (including processing payment information, arranging for shipping, and providing invoices and / or order confirmations). Additionally, this Personal Information may be used to: communicate with you; screen orders for potential risk or fraud; improve and optimize the design and functionality of the Site; deliver targeted, interest-based advertising; and, when in line with the preferences you have shared with us, provide information or marketing communications relating to our products or services. 

HOW DO WE SHARE YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION?

The Art of Rachel Shultz does not sell or rent your Personal Information to third parties. We may however share your Personal Information with third parties who perform services on our behalf as described above.
