NYC Building Solutions Privacy Policy
1. OVERVIEW
This privacy policy (this “Privacy Policy”) describes how NYC Building Solutions maintains, uses and shares information that it may collect when you use the websites at www.nycbuildingsolutions.com (the “Site”) and any products or services made available by means of the Site (the “Products”). The Site and the Products are referred to collectively in this Privacy Policy as the “Services.” By using any of the Services, you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agree to the provisions of this Privacy Policy.
This privacy policy may change from time to time. Any such changes will be posted here. If a material change is made in the way to use your personal information, the change will be prominently noted on the Services and/or email regarding the change.
2. HOW WE COLLECT AND USE INFORMATION
Some of the information collected when you use the Services, such as your name, postal address, email address, credit card information, or telephone number, may allow you to be identified (“Personal Information”). In all of the following circumstances, Personal Information will be used for the purpose described below, as well as to supplement our database of marketing contacts, which will be used to provide and promote our products and services or marketing affiliates.
Registration: When you register on the Services, such as to subscribe to a newsletter, request information, or access a Product, you will be asked to provide certain Personal Information, which will be used to fulfill your request.
Surveys: If you complete surveys or opinion polls on the Site, the information will be used in an aggregate manner, not in an individually identifiable form.
Blogs and Forums: You may post information to blogs, forums, or other public areas on the Services. By doing so, you consent to the posting of any Personal Information that you provide. You should be aware that such Personal Information can be read, collected, or used by other visitors to these public areas. NYC Building Solutions has no control over how these visitors use your Personal Information.
Inquiries. If you send a comment or question or make an inquiry to customer support, your information will be used and retained to respond to you, as well as for improving the Services and our customers’ use of our services.
Linking from Emails. If you link to this Site from an email message, it may be used to identify your email address and associate that email address with the manner in which you use the Sites (e.g., which pages you visit or whether you make a purchase).
Visitors: If you are just visiting the Site and not registering, requesting information, contacting us, or posting to a public area of the Services, and you did not access the Site from a link contained in one of our email communications, we will not ordinarily collect any Personal Information about you except through web logs, as described below. In that case, we obtain the information that you provided and will use it to respond to your inquiry or fulfill your request if we can. We do not share any of this information with anyone else, except to respond to your request, if you consent, or as otherwise described in this privacy policy.
Web Logs: Web logs are maintained that automatically record basic information about everyone who visits the Services. These web logs help to design the website, identify popular features, improve services, and for other managerial and analytic purposes. They may also be used to help identify any person who may be misusing the Services. These logs contain:
• The Internet domain from which you access the Services.
• Your IP address.
• The type of browser and operating system that you use.
• The date and time you visited the Services.
• The pages that you visited on the Services.
• The address of the website you linked from to get to the Services.
Cookies: Cookies, web beacons and similar technology is used to help you navigate the Services, to allow us to learn how you use the Services, and to improve the Services. Cookies are text files placed in your computer’s browser to store your preferences. Cookies, by themselves, do not reveal any Personal Information unless you choose to provide this information, for example, by registering on the Site. However, once you choose to provide Personal Information to the Services, this information may be linked to the data stored in the cookie. If you decide not to permit cookies on your computer, this may affect your ability to use the Services.
Communicating with You. Collected information may be used for the purpose of communicating with you and responding to your inquiries. Those communications could, for example, take the form of service updates, promotions for products or services that we or one of our marketing partners provide, or e-newsletters.
Service Providers: Third-party service providers may be contracted to perform functions for the Site. These service providers may be given access to the collected information for the purpose of performing those functions, but they will be contractually bound to maintain the confidentiality of the information and not to use it for any other purpose.
Social Media. The Sites may include social media features, such as Facebook “Like” button and a “Share” button. These features may collect your IP address and which page you are visiting on the Site; and they may set a cookie to enable the feature to function properly. Your interactions with these features are governed by the privacy policy of the company that provides the feature.
Business Transfers: If a transfer of all or substantially all of the Site’s assets were transferred to another company, one of the assets that would likely be included in the transfer is the database of Personal Information.
Disclosures for Legal Reasons: Personal Information will be disclosed when required to do so by law, regulation or securities exchange requirement, for example, in response to a court order or subpoena. Information may also be disclosed in response to a law enforcement agency’s request or when such disclosure is deemed appropriate to protect our legal rights or to safeguard anyone’s property or safety.
3. COLLECTION OF INFORMATION BY THIRD PARTIES
We may use a third-party advertising company to serve ads when you visit my Site. If I do so, this company may use information (not including your name, address, email address or telephone number) about your visit to the Services in order to provide advertisements about goods and services that may be of interest to you. In the course of serving advertisements to the Services, the advertiser might place or recognize a unique “cookie” on your browser.
We may offer you the opportunity to contact other companies, such as advertisers, marketing affiliates and content providers, to obtain information or to buy products or services. You decide when and whether to give your Personal Information to these companies. If you provide information, its use and security is governed by the policies and practices of those companies and not by this privacy policy.
We make no representations or warranties about any of these other companies or their privacy or security policies. Once you click through to an unaffiliated website, this privacy policy no longer applies. I strongly urge you to read the applicable policies of these other companies and their websites.
4. YOUR PRIVACY CHOICES
