How Your Information Is Shared with Third Parties

We may share the Information we collect from you for one or more of the following business or commercial purposes:

With our service providers. We may share your Information with our service providers who work on our behalf. For example, artists and designers who ship orders to you; service providers who handle payment processing, sales tax management, data management, website feature administration, email distribution, market research, or analytics; and advertising partners. These service providers will only have access to the Information needed to perform these limited functions on our behalf.

On our website. For example, we may display the Information you post on product reviews, Wish List, or Blog website features. Note: We recommend that you do not post any Information in these features that you do not want to share publicly.

For marketing and direct mail campaigns. We may disclose certain Information (including name, mailing address, and non-sensitive transactional Information such as your purchase history, amounts paid, and products ordered) to trusted marketing partners (such as data co-operatives) for trade or rental purposes. A data co-operative collects purchase data and customer information across a range of different categories from US retailers; this is a common practice amongst catalog-oriented companies that helps us market to prospective customers.

With third parties for online marketing. We may share your Information directly with advertising and analytics partners. We also employ third-party companies to serve ads and provide analytics when you visit our website. These companies may use cookies, web beacons, or similar technologies to collect non-personally identifiable information (such as time and date of visit, browser type, clickstream data, subject of ads clicked or scrolled over) during your visit to this and other websites in order to provide advertisements about goods and services that may be of interest to you. To find out more about internet-based advertising or to opt out of having your web browsing data used for advertising purposes, visit the Network Advertising Initiative. We have no control over and are not responsible for cookies, web beacons, or similar technologies that third-party partners may use.

Via social media sharing. Our Services may use social networking or “share functionality” or may contain links to third-party websites or applications that are not owned or controlled by us. Your use of these features may result in the collection or sharing of Information about you by these sites or applications, depending on the feature. We assume no responsibility for the content, policies, or practices of any third-party website we may link you to. You are subject to the policies of those third parties.

With our company affiliates. We may share your Information with companies affiliated with Guild Brands, LLC in order to inform you of related services or products, provide joint content and services, or improve your experience. Affiliates include our subsidiaries, owners, and other companies that they own.

With successors to all or part of our business. This may include an asset sale, corporate reorganization, or other change of control.

To comply with the law or to protect ourselves. For example, this could include responding to a court order, sharing Information requested by a government agency, or sharing Information if we were investigated for potential fraud.

Note that certain features of our website may not work if you delete or disable cookies. In addition, disabling cookies may cancel opt-outs that rely on cookies, such as web analytics or targeted advertising opt-outs.

Security and Fraud Prevention

We are committed to keeping your personal Information private and secure.

All Information that you provide while using our website is encrypted for your protection. A username and password are needed to access certain areas of our website. Uno Alla Volta uses reasonable means to safeguard personal Information under our control. We have appropriate security measures in place in our physical facilities to protect against the loss, misuse, or alteration of Information that we have collected from you. We take precautions to carefully screen orders when they are made and to prevent credit card fraud to the extent possible. However, because the Internet is never completely secure, we encourage you to use caution whenever you access the Internet. It is your responsibility to protect your username and password.

Disclosures. For purposes of exercising your rights above, please note the following about how we collect, use, and sell your personal Information as described in this Privacy Policy:
