Collector Archive Services ("CAS" or "we" or "us") created this privacy and marketing policy (this "Privacy Policy") to demonstrate its commitment to user, visitor, subscriber, and customer privacy on the CAS website located at www.collectorarchive.com and any affiliated websites (collectively, the "Website"). Privacy on the Website is of great importance to us. Because we may gather some important information from our users, visitors, subscribers and customers (collectively, "Subscribers" or "you" or "your"), we have established this Privacy Policy to communicate our information gathering and dissemination practices. By creating an account with us and/or using our services, you acknowledge and agree to this Privacy Policy.

INFORMATION WE MAY COLLECT

We may require Subscribers who use the Website and/or use our services (collectively, the "Service") to give us contact information, which may include but is not limited to the Subscriber's name, birth date, mailing address, phone number, email address, cookies, IP logs, and other personally identifiable information (collectively "Personal Information"). Besides the Personal Information, we may also collect other information regarding your use of the Website. From time to time, we may also collect or ask for additional Personal Information, which will also be expressly included herein as Personal Information. You can opt out of providing this additional information by not entering it or not using the Website, although not providing it may hinder your ability to use the Website and/or the Service.

We use the information that we collect to provide and maintain the Website as we deem appropriate in our sole discretion and to provide the Service, and to provide any other services that you and CAS agree to. We may also use the information to contact you to further discuss interest in our company, the goods and services that we provide, and to send information regarding our company or partners, such as promotions and events. You may be invited to receive an email newsletter or other correspondence by providing an email address. We may also email (or send via other methods) information regarding updates to the Website or CAS, and may send a newsletter, or other correspondence. You will have an opportunity to unsubscribe to any emails or mailings by clicking on an "unsubscribe" hyperlink contained in promotional emails we send you. Even if you are removed from any such list, if you use the Service, you will continue to receive email correspondence from CAS related to the Service. Any opt-out by you is not deemed valid until processed by CAS. It is your obligation to verify that you have been opted-out. CAS shall not be liable for problems with the opt-out procedures.

We may also share your information with specially chosen companies that help us with marketing functions (such as manage our business, maintain and manage our customers' Personal Information and related information, as well as market our products and services). And at times we may share information with other companies that have a product or service that we believe will be of interest to you and/or may help them serve you better. We may engage vendors to serve advertisements on our behalf across the Internet and to provide analytics services. These entities may collect certain information from you (e.g., click stream information, browser type, time and date, hardware/software information, cookie ID, IP address, etc.) when you visit our website and use that information to provide advertisements about goods and services that are deemed to be of greater interest to you.

We may share information about you in connection with, or during negotiations of, any merger, sale of our assets, financing or transfer of all or a portion of our business to another company, and such information may be sold to a third party together with the rest of our business or as a stand-alone asset in connection with any such merger, financing or other sale transaction. In addition, if we are involved in a bankruptcy or reorganization proceeding, such information may be considered an asset of the company, and may be sold or transferred to third parties.

In certain circumstances, we may share your information in response to legal process or as otherwise required by law.

If you provide credit card or other authorized payment method information to CAS, you authorize CAS, or a credit card processor of its choosing to receive appropriate billing information, bill such credit card or to make such charges as applicable.

CAS does not wish to collect any Personal Information (or any information at all) from any persons under 14 years old. If you are under 14 years old, you may not use the Website.

REVIEWING AND UPDATING YOUR INFORMATION

If you register for an account on the Website, you may review and update your account information by logging in to your account with your username and password and making changes there or by calling CAS and speaking to a customer service representative.

THIRD PARTY WEBSITES

The Website may contain links to other websites. We are not responsible for the privacy practices or the content of these other websites. You will need to check the policy statement of these others websites to understand their policies. When you access a linked site you may be disclosing private information. It is your responsibility to keep such information private and confidential.

COOKIES

When you view the Website, we may store some information on your computer's hard drive. This information will be in the form of a "Cookie." Most web browsers automatically accept Cookies, but you can change your browser to prevent that. Without accepting a Cookie, your use of the Service may be affected.

SECURITY

Please note that data that is transported over an open network, such as the Internet or e-mail, may be accessible to anybody. We cannot guarantee the confidentiality of any communication or material transmitted via such open networks. When disclosing any Personal Information via an open network, you should remain mindful of the fact that it is potentially accessible to others, and consequently, can be collected and used by others without your consent. In particular, while individual data packets are often encrypted, the names of the sender and recipient are not. A third party may therefore be able to trace an existing bank account or relationship or one that is subsequently created. Even if both the sender and recipient are located in the same country data may also be transmitted via such networks to other countries regularly and without controls, including to countries that do not afford the same level of data protection as your country of domicile.

Your data may be lost during transmission or may be accessed by unauthorized parties. We do not accept any liability for direct or indirect losses as regards the security of your Personal Information or data during its transfer via Internet. Please use other means of communication if you think this is necessary or prudent for security reasons.

USE OF SUBMISSIONS FOR MARKETING PURPOSES

By using our services, you consent to our use, or the use by our third party marketing vendors, of the items you submitted to us - whether in raw form as sent to you by us or in finished form  (i.e., graded or otherwise inside our acrylic cases) - for purposes of marketing our products and services on our website, across various social media platforms or other websites, at toy shows or comic conventions, or otherwise.  Although we may photograph or take video of items we are privileged to preserve for you for such purposes, we will never disclose to anyone the identity of the owner of any of such items. 

UPDATES TO OUR PRIVACY POLICY

If we make any material changes to this Privacy Policy, we will post a notice on this Website notifying users of the changes. In some cases, we also may send an email notifying users of the changes.
