ClipArtPlace has created this privacy statement in order to demonstrate our firm commitment to privacy. The following discloses our information gathering and dissemination practices for BuClipArtPlace .
How We Use Data:
ClipArtPlace may require user information (such as your name and email address). Some of the requested information is required in order to receive certain ClipArtPlace services; other information is optional.
Ways we use data:
We use data to send personalized, targeted information to the user in their email messages or on our website; to send targeted advertising and promotions in our opt-in newsletters that allows us to provide our service to the users; to send confirmation of profile changes; to contact users for feedback and surveys; and to send users news about ClipArtPlace, including updates of new or enhanced services. We never send unsolicited spam to our users.
We have security measures in place to protect the loss, misuse and alteration of the information under our control. We protect your information by placing it on a secure portion of the Site and by regularly backing up data, performing consistency checks with independently recorded log files to prevent tampering, and restricting access to information on our servers via several user authentication technologies. While it is our goal to safeguard personal information, we cannot guarantee the security of any information you transmit to us, and you submit such information at your own risk and absolve us of any liability. While we do take steps to limit them, our systems, like all computers, are susceptible to “hackers” and others who illegally seek and gain access to information stored on the computers’ hard drives and other memory storage devices.

Children 13 or Under:
In general, ClipArtPlace is a general interest/audience site and is not directed at children under the age of 13. It is ClipArtPlace ‘s policy to refrain from knowingly collecting personally identifying information from children 13 or under and to actively discourage children from providing such information at points of collection.
To the extent that ClipArtPlace ever becomes directed at children 13 or under and knowingly collects personally identifying information from those children (such as full name, home address, email address, telephone number or any other information that would allow someone to identify or contact the child) it is ClipArtPlace policy to include parental notice and/or consent features consistent with the Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act. In short, and depending on the nature and intended use of the information at issue, if we ever collect personally identifying information from children, we will provide parental notice or obtain verifiable parental consent as follows: in the case of notice, we will send an email to the parents or legal guardian of the child that informs them i) what information was collected, ii) what contact has been, and/or will be made, and iii) notify the parent that they may request deletion of such information and cessation of any contact; OR, in the case of consent, we inform parents or a legal guardian i) that we wish to collect personal information from the child, ii) that a parent’s or legal guardian’s verifiable consent is required for the collection, use and disclosure of the information, and iii) how the parent can provide consent.
A parent or legal guardian has the option to agree to the collection and use of the child’s information without consenting to the disclosure of the information to third parties. We will send a new notice and request for consent to parents and legal guardians if there are material changes in the collection, use or disclosure practices to which the parent or legal guardian had previously agreed.
At any time, a parent or legal guardian may revoke his/her consent or refuse to allow us further use of his/her child’s personal information and request that we delete the information. Effecting such a request can be accomplished using the contact information provided on ClipArtPlace.com. Please note that ClipArtPlace may terminate any service provided to the child if the deleted information at issue is reasonably necessary for the child’s participation in that activity.
