The privacy of your information is important to us. The following are the privacy policies of Fiadante, LLC d/b/a Collect World Art.

Fiadante will be collecting two types of information from you: we collect non-personal information every time you visit our Web site or communicate with us over the Internet; and we collect personal information from you only when you make a purchase, download images or join a subscription service on our site. We explain how we collect and use both types of information below.

The Personal Information Collected

Personal information is information that is unique to you, such as your name, address, e-mail address, phone number and credit card number. The following are the ways in which we collect personal information:

Transaction Information

In order to complete a purchase, you will be asked to share with us information required to complete the transaction successfully, such as billing and shipping addresses, credit card number and expiration date, etc.

Subscription Information You have the opportunity to subscribe to our mailings lists which provide information on forthcoming auctions, new exhibits, our events and other services. When you sign up for this service, you will be asked to provide us with your e-mail address and mailing address .

How Personal Information Is Used

When you make a purchase, we use your information to complete the transaction. In the course of the transaction your personal information will be shared with third parties involved in facilitating or completing the transaction (for example, credit card authorization companies and PayPal).

If you opt-in to a subscription or mailing list then Fiadante will use your information to send you emails and promotional written materials on forthcoming auctions, new exhibits, our events and other services. Fiadante and our contractors may also conduct market research analysis in relation to mailing list subscribers (e.g. we may research the type of art that people like to buy, see in shows, etc.). You may unsubscribe from Fiadante's promotional mailing list at anytime by following the unsubscribe instructions that appear in each email that you will receive from Fiadante.

We may also make the following general uses of your information:

We may use independent contractors to provide services on our behalf, for example credit card processing, market research analysis and Web hosting. These third parties may have access to your information in the course of providing these services on behalf of Fiadante.

We may disclose your personal information to authorities (i) if you violate our Terms of Use or any law, rule, or regulation, or (ii) if required by law or regulatory authority (for example, court order or subpoena).

In the event that Fiadante or certain of our assets are acquired, your personal information may be one of the transferred assets.

Use of your personal information by third party contractors when working on behalf of Fiadante shall be subject to our Privacy Policy.

If you would like access to information and records that Fiadante retains in relation to you please complete and submit the Fiadante Information Request Form which can be obtained by sending an email requesting the form to: privacy@fiadante.com . Please be aware that information will not be released in response to a request until Fiadante has received a completed request form, verified the authenticity of the request and received payment of the modest fee due for each request. Once you have received the information and records you have requested you may request that they be changed, updated or removed. However, you should be aware that it is not technologically possible to remove or verify each and every record of the information you have provided to us and that any changes or deletions will not effect the information we have provided to third parties in accordance with this policy prior to such change or deletion. The need to back-up our systems to protect information from inadvertent loss means that a copy of your information may exist in a non-erasable form that will be difficult or impossible for us to locate.

Other, Non-Personal Information Collected and Used

Like many other Internet sites, we automatically collect non-personal information regarding our visitors, such as software client information (for example, IP addresses, browser versions and operating systems) and aggregate information (for example, number of pages accessed) in order to analyze Web traffic and usage trends. Information of this nature does not pertain to your specific identity and is not associated with your personal information.

To enhance your experience on our Web pages, Fiadante employs Internet technologies, such as "cookies," to collect and store non-personal information about our visitors. "Cookies" are small pieces of information that are transferred by a website and stored by your Web browser on your computer's hard drive. With most browsers, you can set the preferences to show a warning each time a cookie request is received. You can also set the browser not to accept cookies at all. However, because we won't be able to personalize your experience if we cannot recognize you, we suggest that you allow your browser to accept cookies.

Cookies and Web beacons (also called “pixel tags”) may be used by Fiadante to determine how you reached us, to track your usage patterns once you are on our Web pages or Web Site, and to target our Web pages to your interests.

We may also provide to third parties information about you that does not allow you to be identified or contacted, including where such information is combined with similar information about other users. For example, we might inform third parties regarding the number of unique users who have purchased art from Fiadante and the demographic breakdown of our user community.
