  1. In the course of operating this website it may be necessary or appropriate for us to provide access to your personal information to others such as our service providers, contractors, and select vendors so that we can operate this website and process orders. Where practical, we limit others' use or disclosure of the information you have shared.
  2. We may share your personal information to respond to subpoenas, court orders, or legal process, to establish or exercise our legal rights, or to defend against legal claims and if, in our judgment in such circumstances, disclosure is required or appropriate.

We may automatically receive and record information on our server logs from your browser, including your IP address, cookies, and the pages you request. If your web browser preferences are set to reject all cookies, you may not be able to use some features of this website and you may not be able to take full advantage of all offerings.

SECURITY OF PERSONAL INFORMATION

Our secure sockets layer (SSL) uses the latest industry-standard encryption technology to help protect your personal information (especially your name, address, and credit card number) from getting into the wrong hands, and to minimize the possibility that this information could be intercepted as it travels to our payment processing system. However, no data transmissions over the Internet can be guaranteed to be 100% secure. Consequently, we cannot guarantee or warrant the security of any information you transmit to us and you do so at your own risk. Once we receive your information, we make efforts to ensure security on our systems. We use physical, electronic, and procedural safeguards to protect personal information about you.

If we learn of a security breach we may attempt to notify you electronically so that you can take appropriate protective steps. By using this website, or by providing personal information to us, you agree that we can communicate with you electronically regarding security, privacy, and administrative issues relating to your use of this website. We may post a notice on this website if a security breach occurs. If this happens, you will need a web browser enabling you to view this website. We may also send an email to you at the email address you have provided to us in these circumstances. Depending on where you live, you may have a legal right to receive notice of a security breach in writing. To receive free written notice of a security breach (or to withdraw your consent from receiving electronic notice) you should notify us at info@sketchandco.net.
