iStickUp Privacy Policy
Ginormous, LLC dba iStickUp.com (“iStickUp”) is committed to your privacy. This Privacy Policy (“Policy”) relates to information concerning all products, services, web pages and websites offered or provided by iStickUp or any of our subsidiaries or affiliated companies. Our Policy includes obeying all laws and regulations in the United States that relate to any use or disclosure by us of information we obtain from you. Unless an exception is noted in this Policy, we will not trade, sell, or disclose to any third party any personally identifiable information, or “PII” (as defined below), without your consent and we will not disclose or make available any PII to any third parties seeking to market non-iStickUp products without your consent. This Policy explains how we collect and use information (1) from customers who purchase iStickUp services and products (“Customers”) and (2) from visitors to our web sites and from potential customers who have communicated or interacted with iStickUp (“Visitors”). This Policy applies to both the offering of iStickUp products and iStickUp online and offline services.
Collection of Information
iStickUp may collect personally identifiable information, including but not limited to name, telephone number, mailing address, e-mail address, credit card or other payment information and other personal information (collectively, “PII”), from Customers in connection with the sale or marketing of iStickUp products and services. iStickUp may collect PII from Visitors in connection with any visit to our web sites, any communication about our products and services or other transactions or communications with iStickUp. Once iStickUp has processed the applicable payments for a Customer, all credit card and other payment information for that Customer is purged from our system and is no longer stored, transmitted or used in any way by iStickUp.
iStickUp may also collect information that is not personally identifiable regarding usage of our services or our web site (“Non-PII”) from Customers and Visitors. Non-PII may include web site pages viewed, time spent using certain services, demographic data, cookies and other information which does not specifically identify any one individual.

Cookies
“Cookies” are small files containing strings of characters that many web sites place on your computer in order to facilitate and enhance your interaction with that web site. We may use cookies to customize your use of our web sites and for other purposes to make your visit more convenient or to enable us to enhance our service.
You can configure your web browser to stop or restrict the placement of cookies on your computer or to delete them from your computer. If you stop the placement on or delete iStickUp cookies from your computer you may still use our web site, but some of its functionality may be limited.
iStickUp and our advertisers may use clear gifs, web beacons and third party cookies to improve web site performance, provide certain features such as advertising or to track usage anonymously of our web sites and track the online activity of users. We may also use such devices in HTML-based e-mails to track their usage similar to how we track usage of our web sites.

Spyware
“Spyware” means any executable software application that is installed on a user’s computer that covertly gathers and transmits PII over the Internet without the consent of the user. We do not consider cookies and web beacons to be Spyware. Spyware may gather PII, such as credit card or other payment information or e-mail addresses, or may alter the user’s computer settings. We believe that Spyware threatens a computer user’s privacy and the ability to securely communicate or conduct transactions online. Therefore, our internal policies and procedures forbid any iStickUp employee, agent, partner, affiliate or contractor from intentionally deploying or using Spyware on behalf of iStickUp. Any such deployment or use will not be tolerated and will be grounds for dismissal, contract termination and/or other forfeiture.
Use of Information
Unless an exception is noted in this Policy, iStickUp will use PII only (1) to market our products and services to Customers and Visitors, (2) to provide products and services requested by Customers and Visitors, (3) to allow our vendors and service providers to assist iStickUp in the marketing and provision of such products and services to Customers or Visitors, and (4) to facilitate relevant offers from third parties iStickUp believes to be reputable. We will not, however, provide credit card or other payment information to any third party unless it is involved in processing payments for products or services that a Customer has purchased from iStickUp. iStickUp only works with third parties that we believe maintain high standards with respect to protecting privacy and consumer rights.
iStickUp may also use or disclose PII to investigate and help prevent potentially unlawful or fraudulent activities that threaten the integrity of our service, to investigate fraud or violations of our Terms and Conditions, as required by courts or administrative agencies, or in connection with a sale, merger or reorganization of iStickUp’s business.
iStickUp may use Non-PII as described in this Policy, and may disclose Non-PII to third parties.
