Printing Matters is always conscious of our customers’ privacy.
Printing Matters is committed to protecting the privacy of our customers. We believe it is important that everyone who accesses a Printing Matters website understands what kind of information is or may be collected through the website, how that information is or may be collected and used, and the measures that Printing Matters takes to protect the integrity of any personally identifiable information that you may provide to us.
This Privacy Statement applies to data collected by Printing Matters through its websites (and the services available via these websites) that link through to this Privacy Statement. It does not apply to Printing Matters websites, services and/or products that do not display or link to this statement, or that have their own privacy statements.

Certain information that identifies the type of web browser and language, access times, the domain name and specific pages visited will be automatically captured whenever a visitor accesses a Printing Matters website. Printing Matters does not collect any other data or personally identifiable information unless the user provides it to us.
Printing Matters’s websites are primarily business purposes and transactions.
If you place an order, make a purchase, or sign up for a paid membership or subscription service, Printing Matters will also ask for additional information, such as a credit card number and billing address, and/or bank account information. This information is used to create a customer billing account. Printing Matters may also assign you a unique identification number that is matched against the information you provide to Printing Matters. Your personally identifiable information will also be matched against any material you upload to Printing Matters for print fulfillment.
Once you have registered with Printing Matters, each time you visit our website we may collect information about your visit. This may include the pages you view, the links you click on, and other actions you take as you view and/or use Printing Matters’s sites and services. Should you place an order, request a quote, or utilize one of our interactive graphic design tools, all details of any such transaction will be captured.
If you place an order and upload a data file to Printing Matters for print fulfillment, there may be personally identifiable information contained in this data file (e.g. a name, address, telephone number and e-mail address on a business card file). This information may be yours or that of someone else. If it belongs to someone else, we will assume that this person has authorized you to forward this data to Printing Matters. If you are not authorized to send such data to Printing Matters, you should not upload the file.

Printing Matters uses the information it collects through its websites to operate and improve these websites, deliver the services or carry out the transactions you have requested, administer you account and generally operate our business.
We may use the information we collect in conjunction with analytic tools to help us determine the level of services and products we offer, improve the ease of use of our sites or services (such as by remembering information you have already entered), enhance our customer service, and to display content that can be tailored to specific customer interests, preferences and/or market segments.
Printing Matters does not support third-party advertising on its websites, however, Printing Matters may promote Printing Matters products, services, special promotions, new features, etc., on the websites and we may use some of the information we collect in order to personalize the promotions that may appear when you access our sites. The ads that you may receive may be selected based on your chosen membership level, product categories previously ordered, pages you have viewed and links you have clicked when using Printing Matters websites.
The personal information collected on Printing Matters’s websites may also be used to directly communicate with you. Your e-mail, mailing and/or billing address may be used for welcome letters, order confirmation, upload confirmation, job status updates, billing information and reminders, and technical service issues. Printing Matters may also occasionally send you product or customer service surveys, or promotional correspondence to inform you of other products or services available from Printing Matters.
Information contained in data files uploaded to Printing Matters for print fulfillment is received and stored by Printing Matters, but we do not use this information for any purpose other than fulfilling the requested print job.

Except for the limited Printing Matters-related purposes described in this Statement, your personally identifiable information is not disclosed outside of Printing Matters. We do not sell, rent or lease your name, billing or mailing address, e-mail address, phone number or other personally identifiable information to others.
Some personally identifiable information that you provide to Printing Matters must necessarily be disclosed outside of Printing Matters in order for us to provide our services to you. For example, to ship an order we must disclose the shipping information required by the carrier. Printing Matters may also retain third parties to provided limited services on our behalf, such as hosting websites, programming development, transaction processing, or performing statistical analysis of our service offerings. Under certain circumstances, these third party companies may need or be given access to personally identifiable information in order to deliver their services to Printing Matters. They are required to maintain the confidentiality of the information and are prohibited from using it for any other purpose.
We may access and/or disclose your personal information if we believe such action is necessary to: (a) comply with the law or any legal process served on Printing Matters; (b) respond to authorized requests of governmental or law enforcement agencies; (c) protect and defend the rights or property of Printing Matters (including the enforcement of our agreements); and/or (d) act in urgent circumstances to protect the personal safety of users of Printing Matters services or members of the public.
Circumstances may arise when, for business purposes, Printing Matters may decide to sell, merge, acquire or otherwise reorganize its business. Any such transaction may involve the disclosure and/or receipt of personally identifiable information to or from a prospective buyer, seller, merger partner, etc. For these types of transactions, Printing Matters will seek appropriate protection for any personally identifiable information subject to disclosure.

Printing Matters uses a variety of security technologies and procedures to help protect your personal information from unauthorized access, use, or disclosure. For example, we store the personal information you provide on computer systems with limited access, which are located in controlled facilities. Sensitive information, such as a credit card number, is protected through the use of encryption technology such as the Secure Socket Layer (SSL) protocol, and is maintained in an encrypted database. Please note that we do not regard any of the information provided to us in data files uploaded to us for print fulfillment as sensitive information requiring encryption.
