Privacy Policy

If you are a minor, you can use this service only in conjunction with your parents or guardians. If you are a minor, please do not submit any personal information.

If you establish a credit account with us, we collect some additional information, including billing address, credit card number and credit card expiration date and tracking information from checks or money orders.

If you send us e-mails, letters or other personal correspondence, or if other users or third parties send us correspondence about your activities or postings on the web site, we may collect such information into a file specific to you.

In addition, we use “cookies” on certain pages of Higher Images. Cookies are small files that can be used to track a user’s steps or automatically generate a user’s password. Some features of our web site may only be available through the use of a cookie. Among other things, cookies allow you to enter your password less frequently during a session. Cookies can also help us provide information which is targeted to your interests. Cookies are stored on your hard drive, not on Higher Images. Most cookies are automatically deleted at the end of a session. You may decline our cookies if your browser permits, although your use of the site may then be restricted (as noted above).

We automatically track certain information about you based upon your use of Higher Images. We use this information to conduct internal research on our users’ demographics, interests, and behavior to better understand and serve our users. This information is compiled and analyzed on an aggregate basis. This information may include the URL that you just came from, which URL you next go to, what browser you are using, and your IP address.

To fully use our services, you will need to register using our online registration form, where you will be required to provide us with your contact information and certain other personal information, namely, First and Last Name, home address, a phone number, and email address.

If you open a credit account, we use your address and billing information to bill you and provide associated support.

Higher Images does not control the privacy policies of third parties. When you disclose information to third parties on Higher Images (or any other web site) about yourself, you are subject to the privacy customs and policies of that third party.

Higher Images and our users do not tolerate spam. Therefore, without limiting the foregoing, you are not licensed to add an Higher Images user to your mail list (e-mail or physical mail) without their express consent after adequate disclosure.

Use Limited to Site-Related Communications. Because of the nature of the services offered on Higher Images, Higher Images may allow you to access other users’ information. You may use such information only for Higher Images-related communications. Higher Images-related communication expressly excludes unsolicited commercial messages. In all cases, you must give users an opportunity to remove themselves from your database and a chance to review what information you have collected about them. In addition, under no circumstances can you disclose personally identifiable information about another user to any third party without our consent and the consent of such other user after adequate disclosure. Note that law enforcement personnel and other rights holders are given different rights with respect to information they access.

We may use third party suppliers to assist us in providing the services available on our web site. Whenever a third party supplier desires to collect information about you, you will be notified of the involvement of the third party supplier, and you will never be required to disclose and information to the third party supplier. We impose contractual restrictions on the use by third party suppliers of information concerning you, and we do not permit third party suppliers to sell your information to third parties.

We may disclose aggregate information about our users to advertisers and for other marketing and promotional purposes. However, we do not disclose any personally identifying information to any of these entities.

We may disclose any information about you to law enforcement or other government officials as we, in our sole discretion, believe necessary or appropriate, in connection with an investigation of fraud, intellectual property infringements, or other activity that is illegal or may expose us to legal liability.

We use practices that are consistent with standards in the industry to protect your privacy. We cannot, however, promise that your personally identifiable information or private communications will remain private. For example, third parties may unlawfully intercept or access transmissions or private communications. We do not sell or rent any personally identifiable information about you to any third party.

We use information in the file we maintain about you, and other information we obtain from your current and past activities on the Site, to resolve disputes, troubleshoot problems and enforce our Terms and Conditions Agreement.

We use your e-mail address, your mailing address, and phone number to contact you regarding administrative notices, new product offerings, and communications relevant to your use of the site. If you do not wish to receive these communications, you may have the ability to opt out on your account status page, in writing, or by email.

We use personal information about you to enhance our marketing and promotional efforts, and to improve our content and services. We may also use your information to deliver to you advertisements, new services and promotions, and other information to you that is targeted to your interests. You can avoid receiving some of this information by changing your options on your account status page or by letting us know in writing or by email.
