Svart Studio is committed to protecting your personal privacy. We provide this notice to explain the type of information that is collected at the http://svartstudio.co.uk web site which is operated for Svart Studio. This policy also explains the choices that you can make about the way your information is collected and used. Our privacy policy is available to you to review on our homepage and at every site where we have requested personally identifiable information.

THE INFORMATION WE COLLECT

This policy applies to all information submitted to this web site. You may be asked to provide personal information so that you can order a product, facilitate payment, and be shipped a product to a location you specify. We will not require you to provide more information than is necessary to participate in any of our site activities. When you provide your personal information such as name, address, email address, and age, Svart Studio, and any third party store operators (who Svart Studio has retained to provide you with the products and services offered on the site), will not distribute or sell this information to any outside company for any use. When you place an order for merchandise on the store svartstudio.co.uk site, you will be asked for certain information required for processing the order. The secure processing of credit card information is performed by a reputable merchant processing company and payment gateway. Operation of the Svart Studio site, however, is solely within the control of Svart Studio.

If you indicate that you are interested in receiving offers or information from Svart Studio, we may occasionally email about products and services we feel may be of interest to you. If you do not wish to receive any future mailings from us, please send us an email requesting your name to be removed from our database.

ORDER OFFLINE

Although we employ the safest data encryption methods possible, if for any reason you would like to place your order offline, you may reach us by contacting us via email, and a customer service agent will take your order and payment information.

We use cookies to better tailor our site and our products to your interests and needs. Cookies may also be used to help speed your future activities or to improve your user experience by remembering information from your computer that was not voluntarily provided by you (i.e., during registration) but does not include data that will identify you personally. The use of cookies is an industry standard, and you will find them at most web sites. Most browsers are initially set to accept cookies. If you would prefer, you can set your browser to refuse cookies or to alert you when cookies are being sent so that you can flush them from your browser if you object to their presence.

OUR PRIVACY POLICIES WITH THIRD PARTIES

We share aggregate, non-personally identifiable information about our users with business partners, sponsors, and other third parties. We do not provide any identifiable personal information to any third party for any purpose whatsoever. Access by employees and agents to your personal information is only on a need-to-know basis on the understanding that this is confidential business information. Our intention is never to use or share personally identifiable information provided to us in ways that are different than the ways described above without also providing you with an opportunity to prohibit such unrelated uses.

LINKS TO OTHER SITES

Users should be aware that when you are on this web site, you could be directed to other sites that are beyond our control. There may be links to other sites that take you outside of our service. This may include links from sponsors and partners that may use the Svart Studio trademark logos. These other sites may send their own cookies to users, or otherwise collect data or solicit personal information. Also, be aware of where you end up when you navigate the web. Check the linked site to locate its privacy policy, which may be different from our own. If the Svart Studio site links you to any third-party site, Svart Studio makes no representation as to the existence, sufficiency, accuracy, or completeness of their privacy policy.

OUR COMMITMENT TO DATA SECURITY

We take reasonable precautions to keep your personal information secure. We have put in place appropriate physical, electronic, and corporate policies/procedures to safeguard the information we collect.

ESTORE SHOPPING BAG

We reserve the right to change or remove this policy at our discretion. If we decide to change our privacy policy, we will post those changes here. We encourage you to visit this area frequently to stay informed. We will not make any changes which allow us to give personal information to a third party without obtaining permission from you first. By using this site, you signify your assent to Svart Studio's privacy policy. If you do not agree with any term in this policy, please do not use this site to submit personally identifiable information.

IS MY CREDIT CARD SECURE?

Your credit card transactions are secure. All online orders are encrypted and sent through our secure server, using SSL technology to prevent information from being intercepted. Confidential information such as your credit card number will be used only to fulfill your order. To protect your privacy, we will ask you to enter your credit card number and expiration date each time you place an order with us. This way, even if someone else accesses the account information stored on your computer, they won't be able to use your credit card.

WHAT ABOUT MY PERSONAL INFORMATION?

When you place an order, fill out a survey, or sign up for information, we ask for your name, address, email address, and so forth. Your name and address information is used solely for verifying your identity and for processing your order. We do not share, rent, or barter any personal information. We will not disclose any personal information unless required by law to do so.

WHAT ABOUT EMAIL?
