As part of such use, you may be asked to register for a username and password and to provide certain personally identifying information such as name, address, phone number, email address, birth date, address information, postal code or ZIP code, gender, personal interests and credit card information for transactions. JIC Design uses your information to perform transactions, deliver services or information you have requested, and offer you products and services from JIC Design and our trusted partners, programs or services that we believe may be of interest to you. JIC Design also uses your information to contact you when necessary for customer service purposes.

You may choose not to submit certain personal information while on our websites, in such instances JIC Design may not be able to provide you with certain services.

When you post information to the JIC Design sites, you are granting JIC Design permission to use and take other actions with respect to such information (as described in the located at https://www.jicdesign.com/terms-of-service.html), in order to provide JIC Design’s services.

JIC Design also displays targeted advertisements based on personal information. Third party advertisers (including ad-serving companies) may assume that people who interact with, view, or click targeted ads meet the targeting criteria.

Except as otherwise described in this Privacy Policy, it is JIC Design’s policy not to distribute to third parties any personally identifying information about you without your consent (usually communicated through either an Òopt-outÓ or Òopt-inÓ notification or mechanism). Upon obtaining your consent, JIC Design may provide access to or otherwise disclose your personally identifying information to third parties. However, we may aggregate certain personally identifying information – meaning that the information from many JIC Design users is grouped together in a way that does not disclose the personal information of any particular user – without your consent.

Each such party operates independently from JIC Design and maintains its own privacy and security policy. JIC Design bears no responsibility from the activities of any such third party to whom JIC Design provides information to process your request and you should contact those third parties directly regarding your preferences for the use of your personal information.
