Privacy Policy

Last Updated: September 16, 2024

Users’ privacy is very important to C3DesignsBiz, and it is highly valued. This privacy statement serves to notify site users of how we gather, utilize, disclose, and keep personal information. It also covers information we could gather offline and online through other methods, as explained below. A person who can be identified, either directly or indirectly, is the subject of personal information.

Consent

By using our site, users agree that they consent to:

1. The conditions set out in this Privacy Policy; and
2. The collection, use, and retention of the data listed in this Privacy Policy.

Personal Data We Collect

We only collect data that helps us achieve the purpose set out in this Privacy Policy. We will not collect any additional data beyond the data listed below without notifying you first.

How We Collect and Use Your Information

To give our users access to the site and its services, enhance the user experience, interact with users regarding the site and its services, and for other business needs, we gather information. The specific interactions a user has with the site will determine what information we gather from them. For instance, the data we get from users who only browse the site will be different from that of users who register for an account, make a profile, and/or use the site to purchase services and goods. Users may be subject to different sections of this Privacy Policy at different times.

• Information You Provide Us: To access and use certain areas and services of the Site, users may be asked for personal information, including identifiers, such as (1) your name (first and last); (2) address; (3) email address; (4) telephone number; (5) commercial information, such as (a) business name; (b) address; (c) telephone number; (6) account or credit card numbers or other payment information.

Some business contacts may also supply us with identifiers or similar information, such as their name, address, email address, and telephone number.

• Information We Collect Automatically: As previously mentioned, we automatically gather certain information about your use of the Site, including your browsing habits and other electronic network activities. We may employ several technologies to help in the collection of this data, as will be covered in more detail below.

1. Log Files. The extended log file format is used by the site’s web server to record information about all users of the site, including the date and time of visit, the visitor’s IP address (each computer connected to the Internet is assigned a unique number, an IP address, for identification purposes), the type of Internet browser, and the visitor’s referring address. The email address of a user is not recorded in the log file.
2. Cookies. A cookie is a string of data characters that a website programs and stores in your computer’s application folder. This is done by the web server. The cookie, once installed on your computer, will enable the website to “remember” you as an individual. Cookies are used by the site to customize content for specific clientele groups. When users choose to construct an information profile about themselves, cookies may also be utilized in certain situations to link specific consumers to that profile. For instance, when you check in to the site on your computer, the site may “recall” your user ID due to the usage of cookies. You have the option to delete cookies from your computer’s hard disk and configure some web browsers to not utilize or save cookies. For further information about deleting cookies, kindly contact the supplier of your browser.
3. We may be able to identify you based on cookie information, which may include your IP address, language, approximate geographic area, time zone, and the URL of the website you were using before visiting this one. By using technological methods like cookies and log files, we and/or our approved third-party service providers may automatically gather this data when you visit and utilize the site. We use your data to run the site and its services, troubleshoot issues, examine trends, compile demographic data, adhere to legal requirements, and assist with law enforcement. To evaluate the overall performance of our site and its offerings, we might also disclose this information to our approved third-party service providers. You may be unable to use some of the services and features available on the site if you choose not to give us certain information. You agree, by making purchases on the Site, that we may share your Personal Information with our service providers and other third parties, like credit card companies and banking institutions, as needed to complete your transaction. The site’s relevant features allow you to view and modify the personal information that you have supplied to C3DesignsBiz.

Who We Share User Personal Data

Employees

We may disclose user data to any member of our organization who reasonably needs access to user data to achieve the purposes set out in this Privacy Policy.

Third Parties

We might give our payment processing company and other service providers that are essential to our operations and the site access to user data. This includes accounting and billing, user experience enhancement, and website hosting, support, and maintenance. Only what is reasonably required to accomplish the stated goal may third parties access user data. 

Other Disclosures

We will not sell or share your data with other third parties, except in the following cases:

1. If the law requires it,
2. If it is required for any legal proceeding,
3. To prove or protect our legal rights, property, or safety;
4. To protect against harm to our users or the public as required or permitted by law;
5. To buyers or potential buyers of this company, if we seek to sell to another company, merge with another company, or file for protection under applicable bankruptcy laws in the future. In the case of a business merger, consolidation, asset sale, bankruptcy, or other corporate change, user data that we have collected and kept, including personal information, will be transferred to a successor entity. Before such a transfer, user information would continue to be governed by the Privacy Policy’s provisions (as they were in effect on the submission date). On the other hand, a successor entity’s new privacy policy may apply to user information provided after the transfer. 

If you follow hyperlinks from our site to another site, please note that we are not responsible for and have no control over their privacy policies and practices. These third-party websites may place their cookies or other files on your computer, collect data, or solicit personal information from you. We do not exercise control over these third-party websites. Therefore, we advise users to read the privacy policies or practices of any website they visit that collects personal information and to keep this in mind when they leave our website. This Privacy Policy only relates to data that is gathered via the Site. 

How Long We Store Personal Data

User data will be stored until the purpose for which the data was collected has been achieved. You will be notified if your data is kept longer than this period. 

How We Protect Your Data

C3DesignsBiz has put security measures in place to guard against illegal or unauthorized access, deletion, use, modification, and disclosure of personal information. Regretfully, it is impossible to provide complete security when transmitting data over the Internet. Consequently, even if we use security procedures to safeguard data, we are unable to ensure the security of any information sent to the site and are not liable for the deeds of any third parties that may obtain such information. 

The site’s password-protected sections are only accessible with a working password. It is the user’s responsibility to maintain the password’s confidentiality and security. 

While we take all reasonable precautions to ensure that user data is secure and that users are protected, there always remains the risk of harm. The Internet as a whole can be insecure at times, and therefore, we are unable to guarantee the security of user data beyond what is reasonably practical.

Children

The minimum age to use our website is 18 years of age. We do not knowingly collect or use personal data from children under 13 years of age. If we learn that we have collected personal data from a child under 13 years of age, the personal data will be deleted as soon as possible. If a child under 13 years of age has provided us with personal data, their parent or guardian may contact our privacy officer. 

For Users Outside of the United States Only
The site is hosted on servers located in the United States. If you are a user accessing our websites from the European Union, Australia, Asia, or any other region with laws or regulations governing personal data collection, use, and disclosure that differ from United States laws, you are transferring your data to the United States, which may not have the same data protection laws as such other regions. By providing user information through the service, you are consenting to the transfer of your information to the United States for processing and maintenance under this Privacy Policy and the Terms & Conditions. You are also consenting to the application of United States law in all matters concerning the site and any services offered or provided therefrom.

C3DesignsBiz does not offer goods to be shipped internationally. All orders will be processed according to United States law and will only be sent to addresses within the United States.

CCPA Privacy Notice at Collection for Online Sources
The CCPA requires us to provide certain disclosures before we collect personal information from California residents, as summarized below. This notice contains disclosures required by the CCPA, is only relevant to residents of California, and applies only to the collection or other use of “personal information” and “sensitive personal information” that is subject to the CCPA. Consumers with disabilities may access this notice by
In the past 12 months, we have collected the following categories of personal information about California consumers from the categories of sources listed above under the heading “How We Collect and Use Your Information.” We do not sell personal information as the term “sell” is traditionally understood (i.e., an exchange for money); however, we may disclose personal information to advertising partners and others in ways that are considered a “sale” of information under the CCPA or “sharing” for purposes of cross-context behavioral advertising. As discussed below under “Data Subject Rights,” you have the right to opt out of any such “sale” or “sharing” of your personal information.

Data Subject Rights

Depending on your residency, you may have certain data subject rights. These rights vary by state and country, but they may include the right to: (i) request additional disclosures about the Personal Information we collect, use, and disclose, i.e., a “Request to Know (Categories of Information)”; (ii) obtain a copy of Personal Information, i.e., a “Request to Know (Specific Pieces of Information),” sometimes called the Right to Access; (iii) request deletion of Personal Information, i.e., a “Request to Delete Information,” sometimes called the Right to Be Forgotten; (iv) request the correction of Personal Information, i.e., a “Request to Correct Information;” (v) request to opt out of the “sale” or “sharing” of Personal Information for purposes of online behavioral advertising or other website tracking, i.e., a “Request to Opt Out;” and (vi) no retaliation. We will not discriminate against you for exercising any of these rights, for example, by charging a different price or denying goods or services. However, we may charge a different price or rate or provide a different level or quality of goods or services when that difference is reasonably related to the value provided by the data.

How to Exercise Data Subject Rights

If you wish to exercise any of these rights, please email c3designsbiz@gmail.com with “Data Subject Rights” in the subject line. You may also call us at 470-481-0356. We will review your requests and respond accordingly. The rights delineated herein are not exhaustive, and we retain all our legal recourse in this respect. Additionally, if we retain your Personal Information only in de-identified form, we will not attempt to re-identify it in response to a Data Subject Rights request.

We shall require identity verification if you submit a request for Personal Information about yourself. To accomplish this, we will need you to verify certain details you have previously given to us and, in certain cases, to sign a declaration attesting to your identity as the consumer whose personal information is being sought under penalty of perjury. If we need to gather further information from you, we will only use it for verification and will remove it as soon as we can after fulfilling the request. We might need further identification when responding to requests for extremely sensitive information.

Written confirmation that the agent is permitted to act on your behalf is necessary if you submit a Data Subject Rights request through an authorized agency. We will also require you to either (1) validate your identification directly with us via the above-described method or (2) confirm directly with us that you have given the agent authorization to request on your behalf.

We will process your request within the time provided by applicable law.

California Shine the Light

If you are a California resident, you have the right to request information about how we share certain categories of Personal Information with third parties. California law gives you the right to send us a request at a designated address to receive the following information:

• Categories of information we disclose to third parties for their direct marketing purposes during the preceding calendar year;
• Names and addresses of the third parties that received that information; and, if the nature of the third party’s business cannot be determined from their name, examples of the products or services marketed.

We may provide this information in a standard format that is not specific to you. The designated email address for these requests is c3designsbiz@gmail.com.

Do Not Track Notice

Do Not Track (“DNT”) is a privacy preference that you can set in certain web browsers. We do not track users of our Site over time and across third party websites and therefore do not respond to browser-initiated DNT signals. We are not responsible for and cannot guarantee how any third party who interacts with our Site and your data will respond to DNT signals.

LEGAL DISCLAIMER

The Site is provided “AS-IS” and “AS-AVAILABLE,” with no further warranties of any kind. We are not responsible for events beyond our immediate control. The laws of the State of Georgia, excluding considerations of conflict of law, govern this Privacy Policy. Any legal actions against us arising out of or related to the Site or any services offered or provided therefrom must be filed in Fulton County, Atlanta, Georgia, in the United States of America.

Modifications

This Privacy Policy may be amended periodically to maintain compliance with the law and to reflect any changes to our data collection process. When we amend this Privacy Policy, we will update the “Effective Date” at the top of this Privacy Policy, and the most current version will supersede all previous versions. We recommend that our users periodically review our Privacy Policy to ensure they are notified of any updates. If necessary, we may notify users of changes by email. If you provide information to us, access, or use the Site in any way after this Privacy Policy has been changed, you will be deemed to have unconditionally consented and agreed to such changes.
