 Introduction

Art by Ash respects your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how Art by Ash handles information when you contact us, request our banner-painting services, or interact with our business.

Art by Ash is a small, independently operated business. We do not intentionally collect, sell, rent, or maintain personal information about customers for purposes unrelated to providing our services.

• Bank account numbers

• Credit card numbers

• Debit card numbers

• Passwords

Customers should not provide this type of information to Art by Ash.

If you voluntarily provide information to us while discussing or arranging an order, we may use that information only as reasonably necessary to respond to you or provide the requested service.

• Names

• Words or phrases

• Dates

• Event details

• Colors

• Design preferences

• Logos

• Artwork

• Photographs

• Other materials necessary to create your requested banner

This information is used solely for the purpose of communicating with you and creating the product or service you requested.

Art by Ash does not sell or rent customer-provided information to third parties.

Payment Information

Art by Ash does not intentionally collect or store customers' complete credit card, debit card, or bank account information.

If payment is made through a third-party payment service, the payment information may be collected and processed directly by that payment service.

Art by Ash does not control the privacy practices or security practices of third-party payment providers. Customers should review the applicable third party's privacy policy before providing payment information.

Third-Party Services

Art by Ash may use third-party services to communicate with customers, receive payments, maintain an online presence, or otherwise operate the business.

Examples may include social media platforms, email providers, website providers, payment processors, or other online services.

These third parties may independently collect information according to their own privacy policies.

Art by Ash does not control information collected directly by third-party platforms.

Website and Online Services

If Art by Ash operates a website or online page, the website or hosting provider may automatically collect certain technical information, such as an IP address, browser type, device information, or general website usage information.

Any such information collected automatically by a third-party website or hosting provider is subject to that provider's privacy practices.

Art by Ash does not intentionally use its website to collect sensitive personal information.

 Cookies

Art by Ash does not intentionally use cookies to create customer profiles or track customers for advertising purposes.

However, third-party services used by Art by Ash may use cookies or similar technologies as part of their normal operation.

Those technologies are controlled by the applicable third-party service provider.

8. Sharing of Information

Art by Ash does not sell, rent, or trade customer information.

Information voluntarily provided to Art by Ash may be shared only when reasonably necessary to:

• Complete a customer's requested order

• Process a payment through a third-party payment provider

• Deliver or otherwise provide a requested service

• Operate the business

• Comply with a legal obligation

• Respond to a lawful request from a government authority

• Protect the rights, property, or safety of Art by Ash or another person

Art by Ash does not sell customer information to advertisers or data brokers.

Customer Artwork and Photographs

Customers may provide photographs, artwork, logos, or other materials for use in creating a banner.

Art by Ash will use those materials for the purpose for which they were provided.

Art by Ash will not intentionally sell customer-provided artwork, photographs, or other materials.

If Art by Ash would like to use a completed banner, customer-provided photograph, or customer-specific design for advertising, a portfolio, social media, or another public purpose, Art by Ash will seek appropriate permission before doing so when permission is required.

Data Security

Art by Ash takes reasonable steps to protect information that customers voluntarily provide to the business.

Because Art by Ash does not intentionally collect or maintain the types of sensitive personal information specifically addressed by Massachusetts data-security laws, Art by Ash does not maintain a customer database containing such information.

Massachusetts law defines protected “personal information” to include a Massachusetts resident's name or initials and last name when combined with certain information such as a Social Security number, driver's license number, or financial account or payment-card information.

If Art by Ash begins collecting or maintaining information covered by Massachusetts data-security requirements in the future, Art by Ash will take reasonable steps to comply with applicable requirements, including applicable information-security requirements.

Data Retention

Because Art by Ash does not intentionally maintain a customer personal-information database, we generally do not retain personal information beyond what is reasonably necessary to communicate with a customer, complete an order, maintain appropriate business records, or comply with legal requirements.

Information that is no longer reasonably necessary may be deleted or destroyed.

Children's Privacy

Art by Ash's services are not specifically directed toward children.

Art by Ash does not intentionally collect personal information from children for the purpose of creating customer profiles or databases.

If a parent or guardian believes that a child has provided personal information to Art by Ash unnecessarily, they may contact us to request that the information be deleted where appropriate.

Your Privacy Choices

Because Art by Ash does not intentionally maintain a customer personal-information database, there may be little or no personal information for us to provide, modify, or delete.

If you believe Art by Ash has information about you that you would like removed, you may contact us and request deletion where the information is not required to be retained for a legitimate business or legal purpose.

 Data Breaches

Art by Ash takes reasonable precautions to prevent unauthorized access to information voluntarily provided to the business.

If Art by Ash ever maintains personal information covered by Massachusetts data-breach laws and experiences a qualifying security breach, Art by Ash will comply with applicable notification requirements.

Massachusetts law requires businesses that own or license covered personal information to provide required notifications when a qualifying breach or unauthorized use occurs.

Changes to This Privacy Policy

Art by Ash may update this Privacy Policy if the business's practices, services, technology, or applicable laws change.

Any updated Privacy Policy will include a new effective date.

The current version of this Privacy Policy will apply to information handled by Art by Ash after the effective date shown above.

Art by Ash does not operate a data-broker or advertising business and does not sell customer information to third parties.
