New Image Studio strives to offer its visitors the many advantages of Internet technology and
to provide an interactive and personalized experience. We may use personally
identifiable information (your name and e-mail address) subject to the terms of this privacy policy.
We are committed to keeping all your personal details safe and secure.
The intention of our privacy policy is to protect the security of your personal information and honor your choices for its intended use.
How We Gather
Information From Users Of This Site
How we collect and
store information depends on the page you are visiting, the activities in
which you elect to participate and the services provided. For example, you
may be asked to provide information to access our business partners' web sites. You may provide information when you send an email to us. Like most Web sites, New Image Studio also
collects information automatically and through the use of electronic tools
that may be transparent to our visitors. For example, we may use cookie technology to provide statistical information agregated from visitors to our site. As we adopt
additional technology, we may also gather information through other means. In
certain cases, you can choose not to provide us with information, for example
by setting your browser to refuse to accept cookies, but if you do you may be
unable to access certain portions of the site and we may not be able to customize the site’s
features according to your preferences. If we provide a newsletter and if you sign up to receive an email newsletter or newsletters from us,
you will always have the ability to opt out of receiving the newsletter
by clicking a link in the emails that you receive.
What We Do With The
Information We Collect
Like other Web
publishers, we collect information to enhance your visit and communicate with you. We respect your privacy and will only use the information collected about you in accordance with the Data Protection Act of 1998. For purposes of Data Protection, the Data Controller is newimagestudio.com
Aggregated Information
(information that does not personally identify you) may be used in many ways.
For example, we may combine information about your usage patterns with
similar information obtained from other users to help enhance our site and
services (e.g., to learn which pages are visited most or what features are
most attractive). This information does not include
any Personally Identifiable Information about you or allow anyone to identify
you individually.
Personally Identifiable
Information collected by New Image Studio may also be used for other
purposes, including but not limited to site administration, troubleshooting
and other similar communications with you. Certain third parties who
provide technical support for the operation of our site (our Web hosting service
for example) may access such information. We will use your information only
as permitted by law. We may also disclose your information in response to a
court order, at other times when we believe we are reasonably required to do
so by law, in connection with the collection of amounts you may owe to us,
and/or to law enforcement and other appropriate authorities whenever we deem it appropriate or
necessary. Please note that we may not provide you with notice prior to disclosure
in such cases.
Affiliated Sites,
Linked Sites & Advertisements
New Image Studio
expects its partners and affiliates to respect the privacy of
our users. Be aware, however, that third parties, including our partners,
affiliates and other content providers accessible through our
site, may have their own privacy and data collection policies and practices.
For example, during your visit to our site you may link to certain content that is actually
created or hosted by a third party. Also, through New Image Studio you
may be introduced to, or be able to access, information, Web sites or features
offered by other parties. New Image Studio is
not responsible for the actions or policies of such third parties. You should
check the applicable privacy policies of those third parties when providing
information on a feature or page operated by a third party.

does not knowingly collect or solicit Personally Identifiable Information
from or about children under 13 except as permitted by law. If we discover we
have received any information from a child under 13 in violation of this
policy, we will delete that information immediately. If you believe

Changes To This
Policy
New Image Studio
reserves the right to change this policy at any time. Please check this page
periodically for changes. Your continued use of our site following the
posting of changes to these terms will mean you accept those changes.
Information collected prior to the time any change is posted will be used
according to the rules and laws that applied at the time the information was
collected.
Governing Law
This policy and the use
of this Site are governed by North Carolina law. If a dispute arises under this Policy
we agree to first try to resolve it with the help of a mutually agreed-upon
mediator in the state of North Carolina. Any costs and fees other than
attorney fees associated with the mediation will be shared equally by each of
us.
If it proves impossible
to arrive at a mutually satisfactory solution through mediation, we agree to
submit the dispute to binding arbitration in the state of North Carolina, under the rules of the American Arbitration Association. Judgment upon
the award rendered by the arbitration may be entered in any court with
jurisdiction to do so.
