This Privacy Policy tells you why and how Sew-Unique collects, uses, maintains, and discloses your personal information when using this website (“Site”). Because Sew-Unique is a U.S.-based company, our website is controlled and offered from facilities in the United States and is governed accordingly. The data protection rules and rights of government access to data in other countries may be different than those in the United States.
Collection and Use
We may collect personal information from you in a variety of ways, including, but not limited to, when you visit our Site, subscribe to a newsletter, fill out a form, and in connection with other activities, services, features, or resources we may make available on the Site from time to time. You may be asked for, when appropriate, your name, email address, mailing address, phone number, and other information. You may, however, visit our Site anonymously. We will collect personal identification information only if you voluntarily submit such information to us. You may always refuse to provide personal identification information, except that it may prevent you from engaging in certain Site related activities. Should you provide us with personal identification information, in most instances we will not disclose it without your express consent, or will provide you with an opportunity to say no; however, we may collect, use or disclose personal information without your knowledge or consent in certain limited circumstances, including: (a) when the collection, use or disclosure of personal information is permitted or required by law; (b) when the personal information is available from a public source (e.g., a telephone directory); (c) when we require legal advice from a lawyer; (d) for the purposes of collecting a debt or to protect ourselves from fraud; (e) to investigate an anticipated breach of an agreement or a contravention of law; or (f) if our company is acquired or merged with another company, your information may be transferred to the new owners so that we may continue to service you.
Disclosure
Sew-Unique does not sell or otherwise share your personal information with anyone else, such as advertising agencies or marketing companies. We will only share your personal information internally with those staff members who need it to carry out your instructions regarding the receipt of marketing information or other services.
Security
We use security measures to ensure that your personal information is appropriately protected, including: physically securing offices where personal information is held; the use of user IDs, passwords, encryption, firewalls; restricting employee access to personal information as appropriate (i.e., only those that need to know will have access; contractually requiring any service providers to provide comparable security measures).
Cookies
Our Site may use “cookies” to help deliver a better user experience. A “cookie” is a small data file that certain websites write to your hard drive when you visit them. A cookie file can contain information such as a user ID that the website uses to track the pages you’ve visited, but the only personally identifiable information a cookie can contain is information you supply yourself. The type of information we may collect as a result of a cookie being accepted by you is specific to your PC and includes the IP address, the date and time the PC visited the website, what parts of our website were looked at and whether the web pages requested were delivered successfully. This information is anonymous; it represents a computer rather than a person. A cookie cannot read data off of your hard disk or read cookie files created by other websites. We may use cookies to understand user traffic patterns and to tell us how and when you interact with our website. We may do this in order to determine the usefulness of our Site as well as the effectiveness of the navigational structure. This information is used to customize and improve our Site. If you prefer not to receive cookies from our Site, you may set your browser to warn you before accepting cookies, and refuse the cookie when your browser alerts you to its presence. You can also refuse all cookies by turning them off in your browser.
