We know that you care how information about you is used and shared, and we appreciate your trust that we will do so carefully and sensibly. This Privacy Notice describes how BuiltByCNC.com and its affiliates (collectively “BuilyByCNC”) collect and process your personal information through BuiltByCNC websites, products, services, online stores, and applications that reference this Privacy Notice (together “BuiltByCNC Services”). By using BuiltByCNC Services, you are consenting to the practices described in this Privacy Notice.

 

What Personal Information About Customers Does BuiltByCNC Collect?

We collect your personal information in order to provide and continually improve our products and services.

Here are the types of personal information we collect:

• Information You Give Us: We receive and store any information you provide in relation to BuiltByCNC Services. You can choose not to provide certain information, but then you might not be able to take advantage of many of our services.
• Automatic Information: We automatically collect and store certain types of information about your use of BuiltByCNC Services, including information about your interaction with content and services available through BuiltByCNC Services. Like many websites, we use “cookies” and other unique identifiers, and we obtain certain types of information when your web browser or device accesses BuiltByCNC Services and other content served by or on behalf of BuiltByCNC on other websites.
• Information from Other Sources: We might receive information about you from other sources, such as updated delivery and address information from our carriers, which we use to correct our records and deliver your next purchase more easily. 

For What Purposes Does BuiltByCNC Use Your Personal Information?

We use your personal information to operate, provide, develop, and improve the products and services that we offer our customers. These purposes include:

• Purchase and delivery of products and services. We use your personal information to take and handle orders, deliver products and services, process payments, and communicate with you about orders, products and services, and promotional offers.
• Provide, troubleshoot, and improve BuiltByCNC Services. We use your personal information to provide functionality, analyze performance, fix errors, and improve the usability and effectiveness of the BuiltByCNC Services.
• Recommendations and personalization. We use your personal information to recommend features, products, and services that might be of interest to you, identify your preferences, and personalize your experience with BuiltByCNC Services.
• Comply with legal obligations. In certain cases, we collect and use your personal information to comply with laws. For instance, with legal warrants we may be obligated to provide personal information you have provided when using BultByCNC Services to comply with authorities.
• Communicate with you. We use your personal information to communicate with you in relation to BuiltByCNC Services via different channels (e.g., by phone, e-mail, chat).
• Advertising. We use your personal information to display interest-based ads for features, products, and services that might be of interest to you. We do not use information that personally identifies you to display interest-based ads.
• Fraud Prevention and Credit Risks. We use personal information to prevent and detect fraud and abuse in order to protect the security of our customers, BuiltByCNC, and others.

What About Cookies and Other Identifiers?

To enable our systems to recognize your browser or device and to provide and improve BuiltByCNC Services, we use cookies and other identifiers. For more information about cookies and how we use them, please read our Cookies Notice.

Does BuiltByCNC Share Your Personal Information?

Information about our customers is an important part of our business, and we are not in the business of selling our customers’ personal information to others. We share customers’ personal information only as described below and with subsidiaries BuiltByCNC.com, Inc. controls that either are subject to this Privacy Notice or follow practices at least as protective as those described in this Privacy Notice.

• Third-Party Service Providers: We employ other companies and individuals to perform functions on our behalf. Examples include fulfilling orders for products or services, delivering packages, sending postal mail and e-mail, removing repetitive information from customer lists, analyzing data, providing marketing assistance, providing search results and links (including paid listings and links), processing payments, transmitting content, scoring, assessing and managing credit risk, and providing customer service. These third-party service providers have access to personal information needed to perform their functions, but may not use it for other purposes.
• Business Transfers: As we continue to develop our business, we might sell or buy other businesses or services. In such transactions, customer information generally is one of the transferred business assets but remains subject to the promises made in any pre-existing Privacy Notice (unless, of course, the customer consents otherwise). Also, in the unlikely event that BuiltByCNC.com, Inc. or substantially all of its assets are acquired, customer information will of course be one of the transferred assets.
• Protection of BuiltByCNC and Others: We release account and other personal information when we believe release is appropriate to comply with the law; enforce or apply our Conditions of Use and other agreements; or protect the rights, property, or safety of BuiltByCNC, our users, or others. This includes exchanging information with other companies and organizations for fraud protection and credit risk reduction.

Other than as set out above, you will receive notice when personal information about you might be shared with third parties, and you will have an opportunity to choose not to share the information.

How Secure Is Information About Me?

We design our systems with your security and privacy in mind.

• We work to protect the security of your personal information during transmission by using encryption protocols and software.
• We follow the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI DSS) when handling credit card data.
• We maintain physical, electronic, and procedural safeguards in connection with the collection, storage, and disclosure of personal customer information. Our security procedures mean that we may occasionally request proof of identity before we disclose personal information to you.
• Our devices offer security features to protect them against unauthorized access and loss of data. You can control these features and configure them based on your needs. Click here for more information on how to manage the security settings of your device.
• It is important for you to protect against unauthorized access to your password and to your computers, devices, and applications. Be sure to sign off when finished using a shared computer. Click here for more information on how to sign off.

What About Advertising?

• Third-Party Advertisers and Links to Other Websites: BuiltByCNC Services may include third-party advertising and links to other websites and apps. Third-party advertising partners may collect information about you when you interact with their content, advertising, and services. For more information about third-party advertising at BuiltByCNC, including interest-based ads, please read our Interest-Based Ads policy . To adjust your advertising preferences, please go to the Advertising Preferences page .
• Use of Third-Party Advertising Services: We provide ad companies with information that allows them to serve you with more useful and relevant BuiltByCNC ads and to measure their effectiveness. We never share your name or other information that directly identifies you when we do this. Instead, we use an advertising identifier like a cookie or other device identifier. For example, if you have already downloaded one of our apps, we will share your advertising identifier and data about that event so that you will not be served an ad to download the app again. Some ad companies also use this information to serve you relevant ads from other advertisers. You can learn more about how to opt-out of interest-based advertising by going to the Advertising Preferences page .

What Information Can I Access?

You can access your information, including your name, address, payment options, profile information, Prime membership, household settings, and purchase history in the “Your Account” section of the website. Click here for a list of examples that you can access.

What Choices Do I Have?

• The Help feature on most browsers and devices will tell you how to prevent your browser or device from accepting new cookies or other identifiers, how to have the browser notify you when you receive a new cookie, or how to block cookies altogether. Because cookies and identifiers allow you to take advantage of some essential features of BuiltByCNC Services, we recommend that you leave them turned on. For instance, if you block or otherwise reject our cookies, you will not be able to add items to your Shopping Cart, proceed to Checkout, or use any Services that require you to Sign in.

For more information click here . Most non-BuiltByCNC devices also provide users with the ability to change device permissions (e.g., disable/access location services, contacts). For most devices, these controls are located in the device’s settings menu. If you have questions about how to change your device permissions on devices manufactured by third parties, we recommend you contact your mobile service carrier or your device manufacturer.
• If you are a seller, you can add or update certain information in Seller Central , update your account information by accessing your Seller Account Information , and adjust your e-mail or other communications you receive from us by updating your Notification Preferences .
