Privacy Policy
Our Commitment to Privacy
The Vanity Project LLC (“TVP”) is committed to respecting and protecting your privacy. TVP has developed this Privacy Policy (“Privacy Policy”) to ensure your personal information is protected. Our Privacy Policy discloses the information we gather on the Phantom platform (the “Platform”), as well as ways in which we process and, share such information and how you can correct or change such information.
This Privacy Policy addresses our privacy practices relating to the general use of our Platform by anyone who visits, browses or otherwise uses the Platform (collectively, “You”). Before submitting information to the Platform, please read this Privacy Policy. By using the Platform, submitting information, making a donation or using any of our products or services, you acknowledge that you accept the practices and policies outlined in this Privacy Policy and consent to having your data transferred to and/or processed in the United States. If you do not agree to this Privacy Policy, please do not use the Platform.
This Privacy Policy addresses what information we collected, to what extent we use any information we collect, and how long we keep it. If we change our Privacy Policy in any material way, we will obtain your consent before changing the way we use your Personally Identifiable Information.
We will implement reasonable security measures, including Secure Socket Layer (SSL) encryption technology and other tools, to protect all the information we collect about you on our websites.
TVP wants to allow users the ability to access, browse and shop the products and services we offer, and The Platform is intended to provide this great experience without requiring you to submit any more Personally Identifiable Information (“PII”) than is necessary to use the Platform effectively. We will not share your PII with third parties unless we first obtain your consent. We also will give you the opportunity of opting out of other uses that we make of any of the information you provide to us. PII that we process shall not be kept for longer than is necessary for the relevant purpose, and will process and retain such PII only as necessary for the purposes stated herein. We will retain your PII as follows:
PII will be retained for as long as you have a TVP account or as required by law or our own backup and security policies.
We will comply with any user’s requests regarding access, correction, and/or deletion of the PII we store in accordance with applicable law, including the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). To request that we correct, delete, or export any PII, please contact us via email at [e-team@tvp.nyc].
We do not require you to register or submit PII in order to visit the Platform. Some activities on the Platform can be performed without providing PII. When we ask for PII, we will not require the disclosure of any more PII than we believe is reasonably necessary to participate in the activity. You can choose not to provide us with certain PII, but then you may not be able to take advantage of all of the services and products offered on the Platform. We may collect the following categories of information from you:
Your Rights Under the EU GDPR
Your principal rights under the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) are as follows:
Passive Gathering of Information Electronically
How We Use Information
When you provide us with your PII, we may use such information for a number of purposes, including:
Accessing or Changing Your PII
TVP allows you to change or correct inaccuracies in your PII by logging into your account and making changes to your PII.
Disclosure of Information To Third Parties
TVP will not give, share, sell or trade your PII to or with any third parties, except under the following circumstances:
We also may collect and store information about you that we receive from other sources, to enable us to update and correct the information contained in our database and to provide product recommendations and special offers that we think will interest you. From time to time, we may partner with trusted third parties to design and operate promotional events for our valued users. All PII and public information obtained through your participation in a promotional event will be subject to this Privacy Policy, as well as the privacy policies and practices of our promotional event partner. We will require by contract that our partners treat any PII and public information that may be obtained through a contest or promotional event in a manner consistent with this Privacy Policy.
Data Security
We maintain a variety of commercially-reasonable safeguards designed to protect your PII from unauthorized access and disclosure. For example, we use industry accepted tools and techniques to protect against unauthorized access to our systems. You should be aware, however, that TVP has no control over the security of other website on the Internet that you might visit even when a link may appear to those websites from our Platform. If you share your computer or use a computer that is accessed by the general public, remember to sign off and close your browser window when you have finished your session. This will help to ensure that others cannot access your PII.
We want you to feel confident using the Platform. However, no system can be completely secure. Therefore, although we take commercially reasonable steps to secure your information, we do not promise, and you should not expect, that your PII, searches or other communications always will remain secure. In the event of a breach of the confidentiality or security of your PII, we will notify you if reasonably possible and as reasonably necessary so that you can take appropriate protective steps. We may notify you under such circumstances using the e-mail address(es) we have on record for you. You should also take care with how you handle and disclose your PII.
Children
The Platform is not intended for persons under the age of thirteen (13) (a “Child” or “Children”). TVP does not knowingly market to, or solicit information, accept service or collect information from Children. If TVP becomes aware that any person submitting information to the Platform is a Child, we will attempt to delete the account and any related information as soon as possible. We do not permit Children to use the Platform. By using the Platform, you hereby represent that you are not a Child.
Do Not Track Policy and Procedures
TVP does not currently respond to “do not track” browser headers or specific “do not track” requests. You do have the ability to limit tracking through these third-party programs and by taking the actions listed below. The use of online tracking mechanisms by third-parties is governed by those third-parties’ own privacy policies, and not the terms included hereunder.
