Redquest Media, the owner of Nova Scotia Art Online, respects your right to privacy and we understand that visitors to www.nsartonline.com (our "Site") need to control the use of their personal information. Nova Scotia Art Online allows individuals from Nova Scotia to list and sell their photographs, paintings, sculptures, crafts and other works of art (collectively "Art") on our Site. The privacy policy below details the measures taken to protect your privacy when using our Site.

WHEN DO WE COLLECT PERSONALLY IDENTIFIABLE INFORMATION?

Registration. When you register, we ask for your e-mail address, user name and other information. Once you are a registered user you can update your profile whenever you like.

Forms and Purchases. We also use various forms for listing, selling, purchasing and returning the Art. We may collect, depending on the form, your contact information (e.g., your e-mail address, mailing address and/or telephone number). Contact information is used to process a sale and to provide our registered users with a means to get in touch with one another when deemed necessary. We use third parties to accept and process credit card payments for purchases of Art so your credit card information is never stored in our database.

IP Address. An Internet Protocol ("IP") address is a unique string of numbers that is assigned to your computer by your Internet Service Provider. Web servers automatically identify your computer by its IP address. We will use your IP address to help diagnose problems with our server and to administer our Site. Your IP address also may be used to gather broad demographic information.

Cookies. A "cookie" is a small data file that can be placed on your computer's hard drive when you visit certain websites. We use cookies to collect, store and track information for statistical purposes in order to improve the services we provide. These cookies do not enable third parties to access any of your personally identifiable information. Additionally, be aware that if you visit other websites you may be required to accept cookies. Advertisers and partners may also use their own cookies. We do not control use of these cookies and expressly disclaim responsibility for information collected through them.

HOW DO WE USE YOUR PERSONALLY IDENTIFIABLE INFORMATION?

E-mail. If you register with our Site, from time to time, we may e-mail you with informative messages about our services or third party products and services we believe may be of interest to you, such as new features and services, special offers and updated information.

WHO DO WE SHARE YOUR PERSONALLY IDENTIFIABLE INFORMATION WITH?

We will not share your personally identifiable information with third parties (aside from entities that perform services for us, such as processing credit card payments, that either are bound to comply with our privacy policy or have privacy policies that protect your information) without your express permission.

We may divulge aggregate information about users. For example, we may disclose how frequently the average user visits Nova Scotia Art Online, or which sort of art is most popular. Please be aware, however, that we may disclose information you provide if required to do so by law or if we believe that disclosure is necessary to investigate, prevent, or take action regarding illegal activities, suspected fraud, situations involving potential threats to a person's safety, violations of the User Agreement, or as otherwise required by law.

HOW CAN I UPDATE MY PROFILE?

You can help us maintain the accuracy of your profile by notifying us when you change your address, title, phone number or e-mail address. If at any time you wish to update your information, you may login to your account and update your personal information. Please include your current contact information so that we can make the appropriate corrections.

WHAT ELSE SHOULD YOU KNOW ABOUT YOUR PRIVACY?

Security. We have security measures in place to protect the loss, misuse and alteration of the information under our control. Although we will exercise reasonable care in providing secure transmission of information between your computer and our servers, we cannot ensure or warrant the security of any information transmitted to us over the Internet and we accept no liability for any unintentional disclosure. We will protect the transmission of credit card information through industry standard, SSL (Secure Socket Layer) encryption.

Links to Other Sites. Our Site contains hyperlinks and pointers to Internet sites maintained by third parties. These links are provided for your reference only. We do not control, operate or endorse in any respect the information, products or services on such third-party sites and are not responsible for their content. Many third-party sites have their own privacy policies that differ from ours. This privacy policy only covers our Site and does not cover any other site.
