Privacy Policy

Website Visitors

Your privacy is of utmost importance to Torah Art. Like most website operators, Torah Art collects non-personally-identifying information of the sort that web browsers and servers typically make available, such as the browser type, language preference, referring site, and the date and time of each visitor request. Torah Art’s purpose in collecting non-personally identifying information is to better understand how Torah Art’s visitors use its website. Although unexpected, from time to time Torah Art may release non-personally-identifying information in the aggregate, e.g., by publishing a report on trends in the usage of its website.

Torah Art also collects potentially personally-identifying information like Internet Protocol (IP) addresses for logged in users and for users leaving comments on TorahArt.com. Torah Art only discloses logged in user and commenter IP addresses under the same circumstances that it uses and discloses personally-identifying information as described below, except that blog commenter IP addresses are visible and disclosed to the administrators of the blog where the comment was left.

Gathering of Personally-Identifying Information

Certain visitors to Torah Art’s websites choose to interact with Torah Art in ways that require Torah Art to gather personally-identifying information. The amount and type of information that Torah Art gathers depends on the nature of the interaction. For example, we may ask visitors who to provide a username and email address. Those who engage in transactions with Torah Art, are asked to provide additional information, including as necessary the personal and financial information required to process those transactions. In each case, Torah Art collects such information only insofar as is necessary or appropriate to fulfill the purpose of the visitor’s interaction with Torah Art. Torah Art does not disclose personally-identifying information other than as described below. And visitors can always refuse to supply personally-identifying information, with the caveat that it may prevent them from engaging in certain website-related activities.

Aggregated Statistics

Torah Art may collect statistics about the behavior of visitors to its websites. For instance, Torah Art may monitor the most popular pages on the TorahArt.com site or use spam screened by the  site to help identify spam. Torah Art may display this information publicly or provide it to others. However, Torah Art does not disclose personally-identifying information other than as described below.

Protection of Certain Personally-Identifying Information

Torah Art discloses potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information only to those of its employees, contractors and affiliated organizations that (i) need to know that information in order to process it on Torah Art’s behalf or to provide services available at Torah Art’s website, and (ii) that have agreed not to disclose it to others. Some of those employees, contractors and affiliated organizations may be located outside of your home country; by using Torah Art’s websites, you consent to the transfer of such information to them. Torah Art will not rent or sell potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information to anyone. Other than to its employees, contractors and affiliated organizations, as described above, Torah Art discloses potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information only in response to a subpoena, court order or other governmental request, or when Torah Art believes in good faith that disclosure is reasonably necessary to protect the property or rights of Torah Art, third parties or the public at large. If you are a registered user of a Torah Art website and have supplied your email address, Torah Art may occasionally send you an email to tell you about new features, solicit your feedback, or just keep you up to date with what’s going on with Torah Art and our products. We primarily use our various product pages to communicate this type of information, so we expect to keep this type of email to a minimum. If you send us a request (for example via a support email or via one of our feedback mechanisms), we reserve the right to publish it in order to help us clarify or respond to your request or to help us support other users. Torah Art takes all measures reasonably necessary to protect against the unauthorized access, use, alteration or destruction of potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information.

Cookies

Torah Art visitors who do not wish to have cookies placed on their computers should set their browsers to refuse cookies before using Torah Art’s websites, with the drawback that certain features of Torah Art’s websites may not function properly without the aid of cookies.

Business Transfers

If TorahArt.com, or substantially all of its assets, were acquired, or in the unlikely event that Torah Art goes out of business or enters bankruptcy, user information would be one of the assets that is transferred or acquired by a third party. You acknowledge that such transfers may occur, and that any acquirer of TorahArt.com may continue to use your personal information as set forth in this policy.

Ads

At the time of writing, TorahArt.com does not feature external ads. Should ads be introduced to our site at any time by advertising partners, the said partners may set cookies. These cookies allow the ad server to recognize your computer each time they send you an online advertisement to compile information about you or others who use your computer. This information allows ad networks to, among other things, deliver targeted advertisements that they believe will be of most interest to you. This Privacy Policy covers the use of cookies by Torah Art and does not cover the use of cookies by any advertisers.

Privacy Policy Changes

Although most changes are likely to be minor, Torah Art may change its Privacy Policy from time to time, and in Torah Art’s sole discretion.
