Information Collection and Use: Personally Identifiable Information
​
· In the course of using the Site and Services, you may provide us with personally identifiable information, which refers to information about you that can be used to contact or identify you ("Personal Information"). Personal Information includes, but is not limited to, your name, phone number, credit card or other billing information, email address, phone number, and postal address. We use your Personal Information to provide and improve the Site and Services and respond to your inquiries.
​
· We may also request that you provide certain information, such as your zip code and personal preferences, which is typically considered "Non-Identifying Information" because it cannot, by itself, be used to contact or identify you.
​
· Certain Non-Identifying Information would be considered a part of your Personal Information if we combined it with other identifiers (for example, combining your zip code with your street address) in a way that enables you to be identified. The same items of information are considered Non-Identifying Information when they are taken alone or combined only with other non-Identifying information (for example, your age). We may combine your Personal Information with Non-Identifying Information and aggregate it with information collected from other Online users to attempt to provide you with a better experience, improve the Site and Services' quality and value, and analyse and understand how our Site and Services are used.
​
· We also use your Personal Information to contact you with www.heavenlypathartgallery.com newsletters, marketing or promotional materials, and other information that may be of interest to you. If you decide at any time that you no longer wish to receive such communications from us, please follow the unsubscribe instructions provided in any of the communications.
