Privacy Policy

Last updated on May 15, 2019.

If you have questions or concerns regarding this policy, you should first contact contact@windowswear.com.

All “Personal Information” (“Personal Information” is defined as any information that identifies or can be used to identify, contact, or locate the person to whom such information pertains) that we collect and maintain will be subject to this Privacy Policy, as amended from time to time. WindowsWear reserves the right to amend the Privacy Policy from time to time at its sole discretion and will provide notice on the home page of the Site when we make material changes to this Privacy Policy. If as the result of such changes, you want to alter the ways in which WindowsWear is allowed to use your Personal Information, you can do so by following the procedure described in the section entitled “Updating Your Personal Information and Privacy Preferences.”

You will be deemed to have been made aware of, and will be subject to, any material changes to the Privacy Policy after such notice has been posted with the following exception: If at the time you provide Personal Information to WindowsWear you are given the opportunity (as you currently are) to limit how such information will be used to communicate with you, either by WindowsWear or by third parties, WindowsWear will not change your preference in this regard without your express consent. However, if WindowsWear is acquired by or merged with another entity, WindowsWear may provide to such entity customer information that is related to that part of our business that was sold to or merged with the other entity without your consent, but WindowsWear will provide notice of such asset sales, acquisitions, or mergers on this Site.

Personal Information on this Site is collected by WindowsWear Inc., 349 Fifth Avenue, New York, NY 10016, USA and its telephone number is 1-646-827-2288.

You have the right to access and correct your Personal Information and privacy preferences at any time. This may be accomplished by emailing contact@windowswear.com For security purposes certain Personal Information can only be changed by contacting support by email.

As a visitor to the Site, you can engage in many activities without providing any Personal Information.

However, when you order products or services as a WindowsWear subscriber, we may collect the following Personal Information from you:

Contact information such as your name, phone number, mailing address and email address; and Billing information such as the number, expiration date, card type and billing address of your credit card; and Demographic information such as your job title, job description and company name and company type. If you submit content to WindowsWear for licensing, you may be asked to provide the following information:

Contact information such as your name, phone number, primary address, and email address.

WindowsWear will verify this information by asking you to either: a) upload a scan of a government issued ID (which will be stored on our servers); or b) provide a credit card number. Your credit card number will be used solely for the purpose of verifying your name and address. The credit card number will not be stored.

Payment and contributor information including, but not limited to, payout method, payout email, desired display name, skill level, content focus, etc.

Depending upon the activity, some of the information that we ask you to provide is identified as mandatory and some as voluntary. If you do not provide the mandatory data with respect to a particular activity, you will not be able to engage in that activity.

As is true of most websites, when you use the Site, WindowsWear or third parties authorized by WindowsWear may also collect certain technical and routing information about your computer to facilitate your use of the Site and its services. For example, we may log environmental variables, such as browser type, operating system, CPU speed, and the Internet Protocol (IP) address of your computer. We use these environmental variables to facilitate and track your use of the Site and its services. WindowsWear also uses such environmental variables to measure traffic patterns on the Site. To better understand the needs of our visitors to the Site we may occasionally match such information with your Personal Information.

In order to reduce errors in our database, authenticate our users, and prevent abuse of our system, we may on occasion supplement the Personal Information you submit to us with information from third-party sources. For example, we may supplement your contact information with address information provided by the U.S. Postal Service to qualify your information and prevent errors in our database. As permissible, we may also supplement the information you provide to us with demographic and other information (such as age or interest in photography) stored in third-party databases in order to make it more likely that marketing communications we send will be of interest to you.

Students/Educational use: We make every effort to comply by COPPA and FERPA regulations as put forth by U.S. law.  If you plan to use our site and are under the age of consent in your area, you must have a parent/guardian or teacher supervising you.

WindowsWear uses one or more outside credit card processing companies to bill you for our goods and services. To the best of our knowledge, these companies do not retain, share, store or use personally identifiable information for any other purpose.

We also share Personal Information with certain companies that perform services on our behalf. We only share the Personal Information which is necessary for them to perform those services. We require any company with which we may share Personal Information to protect that data in a manner consistent with this policy and to limit the use of such Personal Information to the performance of services WindowsWear.

We do not sell or otherwise provide Personal Information to other companies for the marketing of their own products or services.

We do not sell, rent or share your personally identifiable information to or with third parties in any way other than as disclosed in this Privacy Policy.

We and our partners may use cookies and action tags to keep track of your visits, preferences and profile information.

A cookie is a small, unique text file that a website can send to your computer when you visit a site. We may use session cookies, which terminate when a user closes his or her browser, and/or persistent cookies, which remain on the user’s computer until manually deleted. Most web browsers can either alert you to the use of cookies or refuse to accept cookies entirely. If you do not want us to deploy cookies to your browser, you can set your browser to reject cookies or to notify you when a website tries to put a cookie on your computer. Rejecting cookies may affect your ability to use the Site.

An action tag is similar to a cookie. Action tags help us identify and track the performance of web pages on the Site, allowing us to measure the performance and quality of the Site and to manage Site content. In addition, we may use action tags in emails. This allows us to gauge the effectiveness of certain communications and the effectiveness of marketing campaigns by showing, for example, how many emails have been opened.

Electronic tracking technologies are used to enhance your experience on the Site, including allowing you to remain logged in on the Site. Cookies and pixel tags may also be used to collect general usage and aggregated statistical information that does not identify you personally. However, we and our third party partners may use cookies to store some of your preferences (including limited Personal Information) or to display relevant content based upon what you view on our site.
