Privacy Policy
Effective November 1, 2015
To explain how we may use any Personal Information that you may furnish while visiting https://faithfuldogdigital.com (the “Faithful Dog Digital Website”, or the “Website”), we have created the following policies and procedures regarding the collection, use and disclose of personal information we receive from users of the Website. This Privacy Policy may be updated from time to time. We will notify you of any material change by posting the new Privacy Policy to the Website. You are advised to consult this policy regularly for changes.
As used in this policy, the terms “using” and “processing” information include using cookies on a computer, subjecting the information to statistical or other analysis and using or handling information in any way, including, but not limited to collecting, storing, evaluating, modifying, deleting, using, combining, disclosing and transferring information within our organization or among our affiliates within the United States or internationally.
Information Collected
While visiting the Website we may ask you to register and/or provide information that personally identifies you (“Personal Information”) to allow us to provide and improve our Website, services, features and content (together, the “Service”) and to enable users to enjoy and easily navigate the Website. Such Personal Information includes your name, company name, company url, phone number, street address, e-mail address and, for certain services, credit card information(notwithstanding anything else in this Privacy Policy, we will not share any credit card information with any third party unless required to provide you services that you have requested). On any page that collects Personal Information, we will specifically describe what information is required in order to provide you with the product or service, enter you in the promotion you have requested, or respond to your inquiry or comment. Information collected online is often defined as being either anonymous or personally identifiable:
1. Anonymous Information refers to information that cannot be tied back to a specific individual. For instance, we may know that thousands of people have visited this Privacy Policy web page, but we do not necessarily know their names, where they live, or their date of birth. What we collect from visits such as this constitutes anonymous information. Many of the individuals who access our services decline to use the personalization features that are available to them, and therefore those individuals are anonymous to us and the only data we collect about them is anonymous information.
2. Personal Information refers to information that tells us specifically who you are, such as your name, email address or phone number. In many cases we need this information to provide the personalized or enhanced service that you have requested. We hope that, like many of our customers, you will find it beneficial to provide Personal Information to Faithful Dog Digital so that we may provide valuable services to you. Visiting the Website will also cause a cookie to be issued; this cookie allows Faithful Dog Digital to “recognize” you when you are on our site to allow us to personalize our service for you.
Anonymous Information: As is true of most Websites, we gather certain information automatically and store it in log files. This information includes internet protocol (IP) addresses, browser type, internet service provider (ISP), referring/exit pages, operating system, date/time stamp, and clickstream data. We use this information, which does not identify individual users, to analyze trends, to administer the site, to track users’ movements around the site and to gather demographic information about our user base as a whole. We may link this automatically-collected data as well as any information received from third parties to Personal Information.
Personal Information: In order to use the basic features of this Website, you need not register or provide any Personal Information. We believe in protecting your privacy, and will not share Personal Information with third parties except as described in this Privacy Policy. We believe we can enhance your experience on our Website with the information you share with us. We use Personal Information about you to improve our advertising and marketing efforts, to statistically analyze Website usage, to improve our content and product offerings and to personalize the Website’s content, layout, and services. We may also use your Personal Information, such as your e-mail address or mailing address, to contact you regarding products and/or services that may be of interest to you, to respond to an inquiry from you regarding the information that we have collected, or respond to your comments and suggestions. While we believe these services will enhance your experience at our Website, you will at all times be able to opt out from receiving these communications (other than in response to your inquiries, comments and suggestions), either by specifically opting out of these services (by unsubscribing or clicking on this link and following the steps indicated) or, if applicable, by deleting your profile from our database. We also may disclose aggregated user statistics in order to describe our services to potential advertisers, partners, other third parties, our affiliate companies, and for other lawful purposes.
We may also offer other services as a part of our Website (e.g., contests, sweepstakes and other promotions with unaffiliated third parties). If you choose to use these optional services or opportunities, we may provide some of your Personal Information to these parties. We will not do so without telling you in advance, and you can avoid having us make such disclosures by choosing not to use these services or features of the Website.
Depending on the services you have chosen to use, some or all of your Personal Information may be used by Faithful Dog Digital to provide such services. Personal Information may also be provided to intermediaries and third parties, including credit card processors, who assist Faithful Dog Digital in providing you with the service you request. Except as otherwise provided in this Privacy Policy, however, Faithful Dog Digital will not share, rent or sell your information to third parties without your permission.
Faithful Dog Digital is the sole owner of the information collected on https://faithfuldogdigital.com. Faithful Dog Digital may collect Personal Information from our users at several different points on our Website.

We will send you strictly service-related announcements on rare occasions when it is necessary to do so. For instance, if our service is temporarily suspended for maintenance, we might send you an email. Generally, you may not opt-out of these communications, which are not promotional in nature.
Customer Service
Based upon the Personal Information you provide us, we may send you a welcoming email to verify your username and password. We will also communicate with you in response to your inquiries, to provide the services you request, and to manage your account. We will communicate with you by email or telephone, if you have provided such information.

Additionally, we cannot learn your e-mail address or any other information about you through the use of a cookie. The only way we would learn such information is if you specifically and voluntarily submit that information to us, for example, through a registration system, by purchasing products, or by entering a sweepstakes or promotion.
Why does the Website use cookies? We use cookies to track usage of the Website and further personalize your experience when you are visiting the Website. By tracking usage, we can best determine what features of the Website best serve the users.

Cookies enable our server to know that you are a registered user, and will eliminate the need for you to log in each time you access our Website.
We may also employ a software technology called tracking tags (a.k.a. clear gifs/Web Beacons/Web Bugs), that help us better manage content on our site by informing us what content is effective. Tracking tags are tiny graphics with a unique identifier, similar in function to cookies, and are used to track the online movements of Web users. In contrast to cookies, which are stored on a user’s computer hard drive, tracking tags are embedded invisibly on Web pages and are about the size of the period at the end of this sentence. We may tie the information gathered by tracking tags to our customers’ Personal Information.
We may use tracking tags in our HTML-based emails to let us know which emails have been opened by recipients. This allows us to gauge the effectiveness of certain communications and the effectiveness of our marketing campaigns. If you would like to opt-out of these emails, please see “Choice/Opt-out.”
We may display retargeted ads to our site prospects across the Internet. We collect Anonymous Information about your visits to the Website, and your interaction with our products and services.

We are not responsible for the use of information you disclose in these forums.
Third Party Advertisers
The ads appearing on this Website are delivered to users by third-party advertising companies. Third-party advertising companies may use cookies and tracking tags on this site, which allow it to recognize a user’s cookie when a user visits this site. The companies serve their ads from their own Websites, independently from Faithful Dog Digital.
