Privacy Policy for Sketches & Metrics

Introduction

Welcome to Sketches & Metrics! I am committed to protecting your personal information and your right to privacy. If you have any questions or concerns about this privacy policy, or my practices with regards to your personal information, please contact me by using the contact form.

When you visit my website sketchesandmetrics.com, and use my services, you trust me with your personal information. I take your privacy very seriously. In this privacy policy, I seek to explain to you in the clearest way possible what information I collect, how I use it, and what rights you have in relation to it. I hope you take some time to read through it carefully, as it is important. If there are any terms in this privacy policy that you do not agree with, please discontinue use of my site and my services.

This privacy policy applies to all information collected through my website (such as sketchesandmetrics.com), and/or any related services, sales, marketing, or events (I refer to them collectively in this privacy policy as the “Services”).

1. What Information Do I Collect?

I collect personal information that you voluntarily provide to me when you register on the website, express an interest in obtaining information about me or my products and services, when you participate in activities on the website or otherwise when you contact me.

The personal information that I collect depends on the context of your interactions with me and the website, the choices you make, and the products and features you use. The personal information I collect can include the following:

  • Name and Contact Data. I collect your first and last name, email address, postal address, phone number, and other similar contact data.
  • Credentials. I collect passwords, password hints, and similar security information used for authentication and account access.

2. How Do I Use Your Information?

I use personal information collected via my website for a variety of business purposes described below. I process your personal information for these purposes in reliance on my legitimate business interests, in order to enter into or perform a contract with you, with your consent, and/or for compliance with my legal obligations. I indicate the specific processing grounds I rely on next to each purpose listed below:

  • To facilitate account creation and logon process.
  • To send administrative information to you for business purposes, legal reasons, and/or possibly for contractual reasons.
  • To fulfill and manage your orders, payments, returns, and exchanges made through the website.
  • To manage user accounts for the purpose of keeping them in working order.
  • To respond to user inquiries and offer support to users.
  • To send you marketing and promotional communications if this is in line with your marketing preferences.
  • To protect my services, including fraud monitoring and prevention.
  • To enforce my terms, conditions, and policies for business purposes, to comply with legal and regulatory requirements, or in connection with my contract.
  • To respond to legal requests and prevent harm as necessary.

3. Will Your Information Be Shared With Anyone?

I only share information with your consent, to comply with laws, to provide you with services, to protect your rights, or to fulfill business obligations.

4. Do I Use Cookies and Other Tracking Technologies?

I may use cookies and similar tracking technologies (like web beacons and pixels) to access or store information. Specific information about how I use such technologies and how you can refuse certain cookies is set out in my Cookie Policy.

5. How Long Do I Keep Your Information?

I keep your personal information only as long as necessary for the purposes set out in this privacy policy unless a longer retention period is required or permitted by law (such as tax, accounting, or other legal requirements).

6. How Do I Keep Your Information Safe?

I have implemented appropriate technical and organizational security measures designed to protect the security of any personal information I process. However, despite my safeguards and efforts to secure your information, no electronic transmission over the Internet or information storage technology can be guaranteed to be 100% secure, so I cannot promise or guarantee that hackers, cybercriminals, or other unauthorized third parties will not be able to defeat my security and improperly collect, access, steal, or modify your information.

7. Do I Collect Information from Minors?

I do not knowingly solicit data from or market to children under 18 years of age. By using the website, you represent that you are at least 18 or that you are the parent or guardian of such a minor and consent to such minor dependent’s use of the website.

8. What Are Your Privacy Rights?

You have rights under the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and other privacy laws to access, correct, delete, restrict, and object to the processing of your personal data. To exercise these rights, please contact me at [your contact email].

9. Controls for Do-Not-Track Features

Most web browsers and some mobile operating systems and mobile applications include a Do-Not-Track (“DNT”) feature or setting you can activate to signal your privacy preference not to have data about your online browsing activities monitored and collected. At this stage, no uniform technology standard for recognizing and implementing DNT signals has been finalized. As such, I do not currently respond to DNT browser signals or any other mechanism that automatically communicates your choice not to be tracked online.

10. Do I Make Updates to This Policy?

I may update this privacy policy from time to time. The updated version will be indicated by an updated “Revised” date and the updated version will be effective as soon as it is accessible. If I make material changes to this privacy policy, I may notify you either by prominently posting a notice of such changes or by directly sending you a notification.

11. How Can You Contact Me About This Policy?
