Privacy Statement
This statement discloses the privacy practices for our company and
this Web site.
Use of Your Email Address
We do not share your email address with others unless you expressly permit it
or we are compelled to do so by state police powers. There are no undisclosed
or vaguely defined affiliates, partners, or associates. Creativyst, Inc. uses
your email address for internal purposes only.
If you provide us with your email address and expressly choose to allow
it, we may occasionally send you email with notices of new things at
the site. This email may include recommendations or suggestions of third party
products or services but will not include paid advertisements from third
parties. You may opt out of receiving these emails whenever you wish by
following instructions provided on the message.
The discussion forums on our Web site allow you the option of receiving emails
to notify you when replies are made to subjects you select. Once, you've opted
to receive these notifications, you may opt to shut them off again by following
the instructions provided at the forums.
The discussion forums also give you a "Safe Mail" option. This
allows others to email you without them ever seeing your email address.
This option sends messages to you through our servers so the sender has
no access to your email address. You may also choose to shut off all email, or
on the other extreme, openly display and share your email address. The default
choice will be the "Safe Mail" option discussed here.
Lastly, an email may be sent to notify you of changes in this privacy policy.
Such notification will include instructions on removing your personal identity
information from our database, should you disagree with the new policy.
Generally, we will not send email concerning this policy, so it is your
responsibility to keep up with changes.
Sensitive Financial Information
On the Web, Creativyst does not ask for, transfer, or store, any customer
critical financial information. Information such as credit card numbers, debit
card numbers, social security, licenses, or other legal forms are not stored by
us. When taking online purchases, we will pass control to a reputable, secure,
transaction processor, such as a bank, before you are prompted for this
sensitive information. We do not receive a copy of this type of information
from the transaction processor, nor will we employ one who insists on sending
us a copy.
Other Personal Information
Other personal information such as postal addresses are retained
for Creativyst, Incorporated's use only. There are times when it is necessary,
in the course of carrying out our service to you, to share your information,
for example, when sharing your address with the post office in order to
mail you a rebate or invoice. In those instances where sharing is necessary,
Creativyst Inc. will look for assurances that your information and privacy are
held to the same or better standards as our own.
We Don't Share Information
Except as discussed above, we do not sell, rent or share contact information
you provide with third parties, unless we ask for, and you grant,
permission to do so. In such cases, we provide only information required, and
the third party will be restricted from selling, renting, or sharing such
information.
Cookies
Software tags called cookies are bits of information stored in your browser.
There are two kinds of cookies:
-
Persistent Cookies
are stored on your hard drive and stay on your system, even if you
shut it down and restart it.
Creativyst.com makes every effort to run our site without the need
for these persistent cookies.
There are times however, when the use of persistent cookies
may help us to make your online experiences slightly more convenient.
For these situations, you will be offered the choice of whether or not
to use cookies.
We do not currently use any persistent cookies on our
site, and will make every effort to continue to run this site without
them. If you should notice persistent cookies being requested on our
site that you did not authorize, we ask that you
inform us
so that we may correct the situation.
-
Session Cookies
are cookies that last only as long as your current browsing session
and go away when you shut down
your browser. These are used to make the site more convenient and
intuitive to navigate. We currently use a single session cookie
to indicate when you have logged in to the forums. Once you log in
to the forums, this cookie will insure you go to the member area
when you leave and then return to the forums.
Questions
If you have any questions, or concerns about this privacy statement, or if you
have ideas for how we can improve this policy and our commitment to protect
your privacy, please
contact us.
Thank you for taking the time to read our privacy statement.
