Privacy policy

 

This statement sets forth the Privacy Policy (the “Privacy Policy”) of MAIA SERVICES CORP (the “Company”, “us”, “we” or “our”) for the use of the Cartonbar.com website (the “Website” or “Site”) operated by the Company. We respect your privacy and are committed to protecting personally identifiable information you may provide us through our Website, and we’ve adopted this Privacy Policy to explain what information may be collected on our Website, how we use this information, and under what circumstances we may disclose the information to third parties. This Privacy Policy applies only to information we collect through our Website and does not apply to our collection of information from other sources.

From time to time, we may change this Privacy Policy. For example, as we update and improve our service, new features may require modifications to the Privacy Policy. Accordingly, you should note the date of the latest revision of this Privacy Policy posted at the top of this Privacy Policy, which should alert you to changes in this Privacy Policy since your prior visit to this Website. WHEN YOU ACCESS OUR WEBSITE, YOU AGREE TO THIS PRIVACY POLICY. IF YOU DO NOT AGREE TO THIS PRIVACY POLICY, OR TO ANY CHANGES WE MAY SUBSEQUENTLY MAKE, IMMEDIATELY STOP ACCESSING OUR WEBSITE. If, at any point, we decide to use your personally identifiable information in a manner materially different than what was stated at the time it was collected, we will notify you of this change by e-mail to the last e-mail address provided to us. You will have a choice (by means of an “opt out” opportunity) as to whether or not we use the information provided in this different manner. We will use information in accordance with the Privacy Policy under which your information was collected if you opt out of the new policy.


INFORMATION WE COLLECT


Our Website generally collects two kinds of information about you: (a) information provided by you that personally identifies you; and (b) information that the Website collects automatically related to your interests, behavior and actions when visiting our Website.

(1) Personally Identifiable Information: Our definition of personally identifiable information includes any information that may be used to specifically identify or contact you, including but not limited to your name, shipping address, billing address, phone number, company name and email address. As a general policy, we do not automatically collect your personally identifiable information when you visit our Website. In certain circumstances, we may request this type of information when required to participate in the particular activity, realize a benefit we may offer, or gain access to certain content on our Website. This includes: (1) basic data passed during text message transmission (including, but not limited to, message content, photos, files, and message count/volume), (2) information entered in website forms or when creating or using accounts, (3) mobile device information including mobile device identification, service provider, and location. We also collect data (including phone number, transmission, and message data) from general text messaging users who send messages to users of Website.


(2) Non-Personally Identifiable Information: Our definition of non-personally identifiable information is any information that does not personally identify you. Non-personally identifiable information can include certain personally identifiable information that has been de-identified; that is, information that has been rendered anonymous. We obtain non-personally identifiable information about you from information that you provide us, either separately or together with your personally identifiable information. We also automatically collect certain non-personally identifiable information from you when you access our Website. This information can include, among other things, IP addresses, the type of browser you are using (e.g., Internet Explorer, Firefox, Safari, etc.), the third party website from which your visit originated, the operating system you are using (e.g., Vista, Windows XP, Mac OS, etc.), the domain name of your Internet service provider (e.g., America Online, NetZero, etc.), the search terms you used to find our Website, the specific web pages you visit, and the duration of your visits.


HOW WE USE AND SHARE THE INFORMATION COLLECTED


(1) Personally Identifiable Information: The personally identifiable information you submit to us is generally used to carry out your requests, respond to your inquiries, better serve you, or in other ways naturally associated with the circumstances in which you provided the information. We may also use this information to later contact you for a variety of reasons, including for customer service purposes and/or to provide you promotional information for our products. We may use third parties to carry out the foregoing and other business functions and, in such instances, these third parties may use your information for these limited purposes. In some instances we may also share your personally identifiable information with our companies with whom we have marketing relationships. Except as provided in this Privacy Policy, our Terms and Conditions of Use, or as disclosed when you submit the information, your personally identifiable information will not be shared or sold to any third parties without your prior approval. Further, you may opt-out from receiving future promotional information from us as set forth below. We will also use the information to contact you via e-mail or phone call for (1) phone number verification, (2) marketing/promotional purposes, (3) enrollment/activation activities, (4) encouraging or enabling your use of the Website including, but not limited to, specific features, (5) to provide users material updates related to the Website.


(2) Preference Based Advertising: We may now or in the future work with third parties, including third party advertising networks and website analysis firms, who use cookies and web beacons to collect non-personally identifiable information when you visit our Website and third party sites. This non-personally identifiable information, collected through cookies and web beacons, is often used by these advertising networks to serve you with advertisements, while on third party sites, tailored to meet your preferences and needs. You may opt out of Google’s use of cookies by visiting the Ads Preferences Manager.


COOKIES AND PREFERENCE BASED ADVERTISING


(1) Cookies and Web Beacons: We automatically receive and store certain types of non-personally identifiable information whenever you interact with us. For example, like many websites, we use "cookies" and "web beacons" (also called “clear gifs” or “pixel tags”) to obtain certain types of information when your web browser accesses our Website. "Cookies" are small files that we transfer to your computer's hard drive or your Web browser memory to enable our systems to recognize your browser and to provide convenience and other features to you, such as recognizing you as a frequent user of our Website. "Web beacons" are tiny graphics with a unique identifier, similar in function to cookies, and may be used to track the online movements of users, when an email has been opened, and to provide other information.

Examples of the information we collect and analyze in this manner include the Internet protocol (IP) address used to connect your computer to the Internet; computer and connection information such as browser type and version, operating system, and platform; your behavior on our Website, including the URL you enter from as well as the URL you go to next (whether this URL is on our Website or not); and cookie number. It is important to note that the cookies and Web beacons that we use do not themselves contain any of your personally identifiable information.

If you are concerned about the storage and use of cookies, you may be able to direct your internet browser to notify you and seek approval whenever a cookie is being sent to your Web browser or hard drive. You may also delete a cookie manually from your hard drive through your internet browser or other programs. Please note, however, that some parts of our Website will not function properly or be available to you if you refuse to accept a cookie or choose to disable the acceptance of cookies.

(2) Preference Based Advertising: We may now or in the future work with third parties, including third party advertising networks and website analysis firms, who use cookies and web beacons to collect non-personally identifiable information when you visit our Website and third party sites. This non-personally identifiable information, collected through cookies and web beacons, is often used by these advertising networks to serve you with advertisements, while on third party sites, tailored to meet your preferences and needs. You may opt out of Google’s use of cookies by visiting the Ads Preferences Manager.


OTHER USES OF COLLECTED INFORMATION


(1) IP Addresses: An IP address is a number that is automatically assigned to your computer whenever you are surfing the Internet. Web servers (computers that "serve up" web pages) automatically identify your computer by its IP address. When visitors request pages from our Website, our servers typically log their IP addresses. We collect IP addresses for purposes of system administration, to report non-personal aggregate information to others, and to track the use of our Website. IP addresses are considered non-personally identifiable information and may also be shared as provided above. It is not our practice to link IP addresses to anything personally identifiable; that is, the visitor's session will be logged, but the visitor remains anonymous to us. However, we reserve the right to use IP addresses to identify a visitor when we feel it is necessary to enforce compliance with our Website rules or to: (a) fulfill a government request; (b) conform with the requirements of the law or legal process; (c) protect or defend our legal rights or property, our Website, or other users; or (d) in an emergency to protect the health and safety of our Website’s users or the general public.

(2) Email Communications: If you send us an email with questions or comments, we may use your personally identifiable information to respond to your questions or comments, and we may save your questions or comments for future reference. For security reasons, we do not recommend that you send to us by email any non-public personal information, such as passwords, social security numbers, bank account information or any proprietary information. However, aside from our reply to such an email, it is not our standard practice to send you email unless you request a particular service or sign up for a feature that involves email communications, it relates to purchases you have made with us (e.g., product updates, customer support, etc.), we are sending you information about our other products and services, or you consented to being contacted by email for a particular purpose. In certain instances, we may provide you with the option to set your preferences for receiving email communications from us; that is, agree to some communications but not others. You may "opt out" of receiving future commercial email communications from us by clicking the "unsubscribe" link included at the bottom of most emails we send, or as provided below; provided, however, we reserve the right to send you transactional emails such as customer service communications.

(3) Transfer of Assets: As we continue to develop our business, we may sell or purchase assets. If another entity acquires us or all (or substantially all) of our assets, the personally identifiable information and non-personally identifiable information we have about you will be transferred to and used by this acquiring entity, though we will take reasonable steps to ensure that your preferences are followed. Also, if any bankruptcy or reorganization proceeding is brought by or against us, all such information may be considered an asset of ours and as such may be sold or transferred to third parties.

(4) Other: Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, we reserve the right to disclose any personally identifiable or non-personally identifiable information about you if we are required to do so by law, with respect to copyright and other intellectual property infringement claims, or if we believe that such action is necessary to: (a) fulfill a government request; (b) conform with the requirements of the law or legal process; (c) protect or defend our legal rights or property, our Website, or other users; or (d) in an emergency to protect the health and safety of our Website's users or the general public.


PUBLIC FORUMS


We may offer chat rooms, blogs, message boards, bulletin boards, or similar public forums on this Website where you and other users of our Website can communicate. The protections described in this Privacy Policy do not apply when you provide information (including any personal information) in connection with your use of these public forums. We may use personally identifiable and non-personally identifiable information about you to identify you with a posting in a public forum. Any information you share in a public forum is public information and may be seen or collected by anyone, including third parties that do not adhere to our Privacy Policy. We are not responsible for events arising from the distribution of any information you choose to publicly post or share through our Website.


CHILDREN’S PRIVACY AND WEBSITE AGE LIMITATIONS


This Website is intended for use by persons aged 18 or older, and by your use of this Website you affirm that you are at least 18 years of age. We do not knowingly collect personally identifiable information from children under the age of 18. If you are a parent or guardian of a child under the age of 18 and believe he or she has disclosed personally identifiable information to us please contact as provided below. In any such event, a parent or guardian of a child under the age of 18 may review and request deletion of such child's personally identifiable information as well as prohibit the use thereof.


KEEPING YOUR INFORMATION SECURE


We have implemented security measures we consider reasonable and appropriate to protect against the loss, misuse and alteration of the information under our control. Please be advised, however, that while we strive to protect your personally identifiable information and privacy, we cannot guarantee or warrant the security of any information you disclose or transmit to us online and are not responsible for the theft, destruction, or inadvertent disclosure of your personally identifiable information. In the event that your personally identifiable information (as the term or similar terms are defined by applicable law requiring notice upon a security breach) is compromised or we believe that it may have been compromised, we may use email as the means to notify you (at our sole discretion), and in such event email will be sent to the last email address you have provided to us.


THIRD PARTY SITES/LINKS


In an attempt to provide increased value to our customers and other Website visitors, our Website may link to, or contain links for, third party websites that we do not control or maintain. These may include websites linked to products referenced on our Website or in advertisements on the Website. We are not responsible for the terms and conditions or privacy practices employed by any third party website accessible from our Website. These linked sites are only for your convenience and therefore you access them at your own risk, and we encourage you to read the privacy statements of all third party websites before submitting any personally identifiable information while using such other websites. Nonetheless, the Company seeks to protect the integrity of its web site and the links placed upon it and therefore welcomes any feedback on not only this Website, but also for sites that this Website links to (including if a specific link does not work).

You may contact us as at or at the mailing address posted below if: (a) you have questions or comments about our Privacy Policy; (b) wish to make corrections to any personally identifiable information you have provided us; (c) want to opt-out from receiving future commercial correspondence from us; or (d) wish to withdraw your consent to our sharing of your personally identifiable information with companies with whom we have marketing relationships. Please note that using the above process to opt-out of receiving commercial correspondence from us will not necessarily opt you out of receiving correspondence from Pratt Industries or its other divisions/affiliated entities (“Related Entities”) to the extent you have separately given your information to any such Related Entity. To opt-out of communications from Related Entities, please visit their website directly and follow their stated instructions to be removed from additional communications.

GOVERNING LAW AND DISPUTES


This Privacy Policy and any dispute arising hereunder, shall be governed by the laws of the State of Florida, without giving effect to such state’s choice of law or conflict of laws provisions. Any such disputes will be resolved in accordance with the dispute resolution procedures set forth in the Website General Terms and Conditions.
