ARTMargins is committed to protecting your privacy and ensuring you have a positive experience on our website. This policy outlines our personal information data handling practices. If you give us personal information, we will treat it according to this policy.
This policy covers the ARTMargins global website.
A. Information We Collect
When ARTMargins collects any personal information through our website, we will indicate our need for the personal data at the time of collection. Personal information is any information that can be used to identify you as an individual, and may include, but is not limited to, name, email address, postal or other physical address, title, occupation, and other information required to provide a service, deliver a product, or to carry out a transaction you have requested.
The personal information that we may collect or receive broadly falls into the following three categories:
- Information ARTMargins receives directly from clients or potential customers: For example, an individual interested in ARTMargins services may provide personal information to engage in our services or sign up for an information newsletter or any other direct ARTMargins interaction.
- Information ARTMargins collects automatically when you interact with the ARTMargins website: For example, we may collect information about your device and interaction with our website. Please see our Cookies & Tracking Technology Policy below for additional information about our use of cookies.
- Information ARTMargins collects from other sources: For example, we may obtain information about you from third-party sources, such as social media platforms and third-party data providers.
B. Use of Personal Information
We will only use your personal information in the way we specified when it was collected. We will not subsequently change the way your personal information is used without your consent. Some of the ways we may use your personal information include:
- To contact you and provide you with billing information
- To provide customer feedback and support
- To provide you information on our services in accordance with your preferences
- In response to your online inquiry to provide you with information or services that you have requested from us

- To understand more about you, so we can personalize newsletters and websites to your preferences
- To allow you to forward information to another individual such as a friend or co-worker. ARTMargins does not store the personal information of the third party. We collect the information for the sole purpose of sending a one-time email. If you choose to use our referral service to inform a colleague or friend, we will only ask for a contact name and email address
- To meet contract obligations
- To carry out other legitimate business purposes, as well as other lawful purposes.
C. Legal Basis for Processing
Before ARTMargins collects and uses personal information, it will be deemed necessary and compliant with global privacy best practice legal standards.
We will collect and use personal information from you where the processing is in our legitimate interests, including improving, maintaining, providing, and enhancing our services, ensuring the security of the services and our websites, and for our marketing activities. We will be respectful to not override your data protection interests or fundamental rights and freedoms.
D. Retention of Data
ARTMargins will retain personal records indefinitely unless we have been asked to destroy information based on a contractual obligation or if you have asked to be removed or “deleted” from all personal data lists (see Other Data Protection Rights below).
E. Other Data Protection Rights
You have the right to request access, correction, withdrawal of consent or deletion of your personal information. ARTMargins takes reasonable steps to ensure that the data we collect is reliable for its intended use, accurate, complete, and up to date. You may contact us directly at any time about accessing, correcting, or deleting your personal information by emailing us at info@artmargins.com.
ARTMargins will respond to all requests we receive from individuals wishing to exercise their data protection rights in a timely manner. We may ask you to verify your identity in order to help us respond efficiently to your request.
