2. Participating Third Party Policies
The Site may contain links to related services and offerings, including vendor sites. These third parties may have their own privacy statements that can be viewed on their websites or by contacting these third parties directly. These third parties who participate in our services are encouraged to participate in industry privacy initiatives and to take a responsible attitude towards consumer privacy. However, since we do not have direct control over the policies or practices of third parties, we are not responsible for the privacy practices or contents of those sites. We recommend and encourage that you always review the privacy policies of these third parties before you provide any personal information or complete any transaction with such parties.
3. Information We Collect and How We Use It
We collect certain information from and about our users three ways: (1) directly from our web Server logs, (2) with Cookies, and (3) from you, the user. We do not collect information about the specifics of who you are (“Personally Identifiable Information”) unless you specifically provide it to us.
- Web Server Logs – When you visit our Site, we may track information to administer the Site and analyze its usage. None of this information is Personally Identifiable Information. Examples of information we may track include, but are not limited to:
- Your Internet protocol address.
- The kind of browser or computer you use.
- Number of links you click within the site.
- State or country from which you access the site.
- Date and time of your visit.
- Name of your Internet service provider.
- Web pages from which you link to our site.
- Web pages you go to from our site.
- Pages you view on our site.
- Use of Cookies - We use cookies to personalize or enhance your user experience. A cookie is a small text file that is placed on your hard disk by a web page server. Cookies cannot be used to run programs or deliver viruses to your computer. Cookies are uniquely assigned to you, and can only be read by a web server in the domain that issued the cookie to you.
One of the primary purposes of cookies is to provide a convenience feature to save you time. For example, if you personalize a web page, or navigate within a site, a cookie helps the site to recall your specific information on subsequent visits. Hence, this simplifies the process of delivering relevant content and eases site navigation by providing and saving your preferences and login information as well as providing personalized functionality.
The type of information that may be stored in a cookie includes non-Personally Identifiable Information about you, such as a randomly assigned user or session identification number, the country where you are located, and your first name to welcome you back to the site.
We reserve the right to share aggregated site statistics with third parties, but will not allow other companies to place cookies on our website unless there is a temporary, overriding customer value (such as merging into our Site another site that relies on third-party cookies).
You have the ability to accept or decline cookies. Most web browsers automatically accept cookies, but you can usually modify your browser setting to decline cookies. If you reject cookies by changing your browser settings then be aware that this will disable the functionality of our Site. - Personal Information entered by users - You provide certain Personally Identifiable Information to us when you register with us, send us e-mail messages, submit forms to us, or provide information to us by any means. When you register, we will request some personal information which may include your name, address, e-mail, telephone number or facsimile number, account number, and may include other relevant information. You may also be asked to disclose personal information to us so that we can provide assistance and information to you. For example, such data may be warranted in order to provide online technical support and troubleshooting.
You may also provide certain Personally Identifiable Information to us regarding third parties. For instance, when you share your hypr3d model with others, you provide and we collect the email addresses of the people with whom you want to share your model.
We will not sell, trade, or rent Personally Identifiable Information to others. Furthermore, we will not disclose Personally Identifiable Information we collect from you to third parties without your permission, except to the extent necessary.
- To fulfill your service request,
- To protect ourselves from liability,
- To respond to a court order or subpoena, to comply with an investigation, or to comply with applicable laws or rules, or
- In connection with a merger, acquisition, or liquidation of the company.
We reserve the right to report to law enforcement agencies any activities that we in good faith believe to be unlawful.
We do not store your credit card information on our Site. Payments for Services are made via credit card through our online transaction partner, PayPal or Google Checkout. Please refer to their respective privacy policies.
We may, however, receive and store information from these transaction partners regarding a portion of your credit card number and/or other identifiers to identify your transaction through their portal.
For terms relating to areas of this Site that allow you to communicate and/or submit information on or through the Site, such as bulletin board postings, e-mail, messages, suggestions, ideas, fictional work, non-fiction material, photographs, drawings, or concepts, please refer to our terms of service.
4. Use of Web Beacons or GIF files
We reserve the right to include on our Site electronic images known as web beacons sometimes also called single-pixel gifs that allow us to count users who have visited those pages and to deliver co-branded services. We reserve the right to include web beacons in promotional email messages or newsletters in order to determine whether messages have been opened and acted upon.
If included on our site, web beacons may be placed by third party service providers to help determine the effectiveness of our advertising campaigns or email communications. You should visit those service provider's web pages to review their privacy policies; see paragraph 2 above. We prohibit web beacons from being used by third parties to collect or access your Personally Identifiable Information.
5. Accessing Web Account Information
We will provide you with the means to ensure that Personally Identifiable Information that we have on file for you is correct and current. You must update your Personally Identifiable Information promptly after it changes. You may review this information by sending us an e-mail. You may ask to have the information on your account deleted or removed at any time. We will use reasonable efforts to delete your information; however, because we and our web hosting company have backup systems and keep track of past transactions and/or activities, it may be impossible to completely delete your information.
6. User Communication
We may, from time to time, send you e-mail regarding our services. In addition, if you indicate upon registration that you are interested in receiving offers or information from us, we may occasionally send you direct mail about products and services that may be of interest to you. Only Hypr3d will send you these direct mailings, and only if you indicated that you are interested in receiving these offers. If you do not want these mailings, you can tell us when you submit or edit your Personally Identifiable Information.
7. Security of Information
We will keep your Personally Identifiable Information secure consistent with current industry standards. Security of your Personally Identifiable Information is of utmost concern to us. Personally Identifiable Information, once transmitted to us, will be stored on computers that only selected personnel and contractors have access to via password, and/or on our web hosting servers.
Your hypr3d models and user content are limited-access, where access is gained through an obscured URL system. This obscured URL makes it difficult if not impossible for a third party to guess the URL address of your model or content without an invitation from you including the relevant URL. However, because the models and content are not password-protected, a possibility exists that an unauthorized third party could discover your models and/or content.
8. Changes to this Statement
Hypr3d has the discretion to update this Statement at any time. When we do, we will also revise the updated date at the bottom of this Privacy page. We encourage you to periodically review this Statement to stay informed about how we are helping to protect the personal information we collect. You acknowledge and agree that it is your responsibility to review this Statement periodically and become aware of modifications. Your continued use of this site constitutes your agreement to this Statement and any updates.
