Privacy Policy

Information

William A. Karges Fine Art takes your online privacy seriously. Our Privacy Policy describes the types of information we collect from you when you visit our website or request information from our company, and explains what we do with that information.

Information Collection & Use

You may visit the site anonymously as many times as you like without providing any personal information. We do not collect personal information from you unless you purchase something or request information from us. In both cases, we will never sell, rent, or provide your personal information to a third party. We may, on an occasional basis, send you notice of new works, catalogs and books via email.

If you request information from us, we request certain personally identifiable information from you through the online forms on our website. Based upon the personally identifiable information you provide us, we will communicate with you in response to your inquiries, and to provide the services you request. We will communicate with you by email or telephone, in accordance with your wishes. Other than as provided in this Privacy Statement, we do not share your personally identifiable information with third parties.

Log Files

As is true of most Web sites, 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 click stream 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 do not link this automatically-collected data to personally identifiable information.

We may use third-party tracking services including, but not limited to, Google Analytics and Squarespace Analytics that use JavaScript to track non-personally identifiable information about visitors to our site in the aggregate. The information we track is limited to usage and volume statistics and is used to provide insight into the effectiveness of our online marketing initiatives and strategies.

A cookie is a small text file that is stored on a user’s computer for record-keeping purposes. We use cookies on this site. We use both session ID cookies and persistent cookies. We use session cookies to make it easier for you to navigate our site. A session ID cookie expires when you close you browser. A persistent cookie remains on your hard drive for an extended period of time. You can remove persistent cookies by following directions provided in your Internet browser’s “help” file. We also may use third-party cookies to track non-personally identifiable information about visitors to our site in the aggregate for Google Analytics and Squarespace Analytics.

This privacy statement covers the use of cookies by this site only and does not cover the use of cookies by any advertisers or third-party sites that may be linked to from this site.

Aggregate Information (Non-Personally Identifiable)

We may share aggregated demographic information about our user base with our agents, including agencies or third-party vendors used to aggregate demographic information, provide marketing analysis and consult on advertising strategies. This information does not identify individual users. We do not link aggregate user data with personally identifiable information.

Personally Identifiable Information

You agree to fully indemnify William A. Karges Fine Art, its owners, employees, agents, distributors, vendors, and affiliates from and against any and all third party claims, demands, liabilities, costs or expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, resulting from your breach of any of these terms and conditions, including, but not limited to, any allegations, damages or claims relating to any infringement or violation of any third-party rights.

Legal Disclaimer

We reserve the right to disclose your personally identifiable information as required by law and when we reasonably believe that disclosure is necessary to protect our rights and/or to comply with a judicial proceeding, court order, or legal process served on our Web site.

Choice and Opt-out

We provide you the opportunity to ‘opt-out’ of having your personally identifiable information used for certain purposes. If your personally identifiable information changes, or if you no longer desire our service, you may correct, update, delete or deactivate it, or contact us regarding any concern you may have about our privacy policy by emailing us at gallery@kargesfineart.com or by contacting us by telephone at (800) 833-9185 or by postal mail at William A. Karges Fine Art, P.O Box D-1, Carmel, CA 93921.

Additionally, if you no longer wish to receive our promotional communications, you can indicate your preference on our mass email communications by simply following the steps to unsubscribe.

Links to Other Sites

This Web site may contain links to other sites that are not owned or controlled by William A. Karges Fine Art. Please be aware that we are not responsible for the privacy practices of such other sites.

This privacy statement applies only to information collected by this Web site.

Site Policies, Modification and Severability

We reserve the right to make changes to this Site, our Privacy Statement, and these Site Terms at any time. Any changes to our Site Terms or Privacy Statement shall become binding on you within 30 days of their being posted on our web site or their being emailed to you. If you do not agree to any new terms, your sole remedy is to stop using the Site. If any of these Site Terms shall be deemed invalid, void, or for any reason unenforceable, that term shall be deemed severable and shall not affect the validity and enforceability of any remaining term or condition.

Changes in this Privacy Statement

If we decide to change our privacy policy, we will post those changes to this privacy statement, which is linked from the homepage, and other places we deem appropriate so that you are aware of what information we collect, how we use it, and under what circumstances, if any, we disclose it.
