Introduction
David Charles Productions ("us", "we", or "our") respects your privacy and is committed to protecting it through our compliance with this policy.
Our privacy policy is a statement that explains how we collect information from you, how we use this information, and how you can limit our sharing of your information. By using our site and services, you agree to the collection and use of information, in accordance with this policy.
The information we collect
Personal Information
Personal information is information that specifically identifies an individual, such as a name, address, telephone number, and email address. Personal information also includes demographic information, such as date of birth, gender, geographic area, and preferences when such information is linked to other personal information that identifies you. We only collect personal information from you when you subscribe to our newsletter, fill out a form, contact us by email, or order products and services.
Non-personal Information
We may collect certain non-personal information from you, including, but not limited to your Internet IP Address, browser type, domain name, operating system, and referring website addresses. In addition, we may collect information about your browsing behavior, such as the date and time you visit the site, the areas or pages of the site that you visit, the amount of time you spend viewing the site, the number of times you return to the site, unique device identifiers, and other diagnostic data.
How we use information
We use your information to deliver and improve the services that we provide. Any of the information we collect from you may be used in one of the following ways:
To personalize your experience; your information helps us to better respond to your individual needs
To detect, prevent and address technical issues
To provide customer support
To allow you to participate in interactive features of our service when you choose to do so
To improve our services; we continually strive to improve our offerings based on the information and feedback we receive from you
To send periodic emails; the email address you provide may be used to send you information, respond to inquiries, and/or other requests or questions. Note: To unsubscribe or opt out of marketing emails, you can use the ‘Unsubscribe’ link found at the bottom of any newsletter email to be removed from our mailing list immediately.
Security and protection
The security of your data is important to us, but remember that no method of transmission over the Internet, or method of electronic storage is 100% secure. Due to the inherently open nature of the Internet, we cannot guarantee that communication between us or information stored on this site or our servers will be free from unauthorized access by third-parties such as hackers, and your use of the website demonstrates your assumptions of this risk.
While we strive to use commercially acceptable means to protect your personal data, we cannot guarantee its absolute security. We have put in place reasonable physical, electronic, and managerial procedures to safeguard the information we collect. Only those employees who need access to your information in order to perform their duties are authorized to have access to your personal information.
Cookies
Cookies are small files that a website or its service provider transfers to your computer’s hard drive through your web browser (if you allow) that enables the website or service provider's systems to recognize your browser and capture and remember certain information.
We use cookies to compile aggregate data about website traffic and website interaction so that we can offer better website experiences and tools in the future. We may contract with third-party service providers to assist us in better understanding our website visitors. These service providers are not permitted to use the information collected on our behalf except to help us conduct and improve our business.
You can instruct your browser to refuse all cookies or to indicate when a cookie is being sent. However, if you do not accept cookies, you may not be able to use some portions of our service.
Information collected during your visit
If you do nothing during your visit but browse our site, read content, or download information, we will gather and store certain information about your visit automatically.
Any communication or material you transmit to us by email or otherwise, including any data, questions, comments, suggestions or the like is, and will be treated as, non-confidential and nonproprietary. Except to the extent expressly covered by our privacy policy, we may use anything you transmit or post for any purpose, including but not limited to reproduction, disclosure, transmission, publication, broadcast, posting, and/or ranking. Furthermore, you expressly agree that we are free to use any ideas, concepts, know-how, or techniques contained in any communication you send to us without compensation and for any purpose whatsoever, including but not limited to, developing, manufacturing, and marketing products and services using such information.
If you are a resident of the European Economic Area (EEA), our compliance with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) guarantees you certain data protection rights. We have taken reasonable steps to allow you to correct, amend, delete, or limit the use of your personal data. You have the right to be informed of the personal data we hold about you, the right to request that you be removed from our systems, and the right to complain to a data protection authority about our collection and use of your personal data.
Information disclosed to outside parties
We do not sell or trade your personally-identifiable information to outside parties. This does not include trusted third-parties who assist us in operating our website, conducting our business, or servicing you, so long as those parties agree to keep this information confidential.
We may release your information when we believe the release is appropriate to comply with the law, to enforce our website policies, or to protect our rights, property, or safety, or those of others. Non-personally identifiable information may be provided to other parties for marketing, advertising, or other uses.
Because we value your privacy, we have taken the necessary precautions to be in compliance with the California Online Privacy Protection Act. We therefore will not distribute your personal information to outside parties without your consent. You may request information from us regarding the manner in which we share certain categories of your personal information with third parties, for the third party’s direct marketing purposes.
