2. PERSONAL DATA

2.1.  COLLECTION OF PERSONAL DATA

“Personal Data” is used herein to refer to any data that allows someone to identify or contact an individual User; in the case of the Site, Personal Data is likely to include a User’s: avatar, ID, name,
surname, address, email, telephone number, bank details, credit card details, dates of birth and identification documents and is largely collected when the User creates his User account. Credit card details will be stored by the designated third party professional payment platform and not by RZ GRAPHICS, who accepts no responsibility or liability whatsoever for any loss in any way related to such Personal Data; the User should familiarise themselves with the relevant third
party professional payment platform’s data privacy policy which applies in this instance, and not this Data Privacy Policy document, which would cease to apply. The Site uses technology to automatically collect information from the User which does not, of itself, directly identify the individual User. Such information could include: data on the User’s visit to the Site (such as browser type, operating system, internet protocol address, domain name, location, language, time spent on site, date and time stamp of visit, etc.), which may be used by the Site to administer the Site, analyze User trends, track User movements around the Site, gather demographic information on Users, etc.; and also data on the User’s performance (such as sales and conversions data, Image prices, Image completion date, and time stamp, job completion and closure data, etc.), which may be used by the Site to improve a User’s experience with the Site. RZ GRAPHICS reserves the right to link such automatically collected information to a User’s Personal Data for the purpose of security and protecting the Site against fraudulent and/or non-professional activity on behalf of any User. The Site uses Google Analytics to collect data on Users, including the collection of cookies and user IDs; Users should refer to the following link for information on the data collected by Google Analytics: http://www.google.com/intl/en/policies/ We will not upload any data that allows Google to personally identify an individual (such as name, Social Security Number, email address, or
any similar data), or data that permanently identifies a particular device (such as a unique device identifier if such an identifier cannot be reset).

2.2.  USE OF PERSONAL DATA

Personal Data is, in general, used by RZ GRAPHICS to allow and subsequently improve the User’s and/or other Users’ experience with the Site. RZ GRAPHICS uses Personal Data to: allow the creation of a single, secure User account which will allow the User access to the Site and its services; identify a User’s movements and interactions within the Site; inform internal research and development that could improve the Site and its services; customise the Site to match a User’s preferences; respond to a User’s request; send administrative notifications and promotional materials to Users; block Site access to suspended Users; marketing and surveys; sending service update notices; enabling sales and other transactions; processing payments
and settlement; sending payouts; handling orders; providing receipts; providing customer service; providing dispute resolution, chargebacks, refunds, or related issues; recovering debt and collections; detecting and preventing fraud; detecting and preventing violations of our legal agreements; measuring, improving, and customizing our services; fulfilling other technical, financial, legal, compliance, administrative, or back-office functions.

2.3. DISCLOSURE OF PERSONAL DATA

The disclosure of Personal Data to other Users is kept to a minimum. The more sensitive elements of a User’s Personal Data (such as the User’s name, surname, address, email, telephone number, bank details, and/or credit card details) are visible solely to the User himself and RZ GRAPHICS.
RZ GRAPHICS may have to disclose some or all of a User’s Personal Data to third-party service providers so that RZ GRAPHICS may, with the assistance of these third-party service providers, deliver the Site’s services to the User. These third-party service providers are required to use a User’s Personal Data solely to provide the services requested by RZ GRAPHICS; any Personal
Data in the possession of a third-party service provider will be subject to that third-party service provider’s own data privacy policy, and not RZ GRAPHICS Data Privacy Policy document. 2Checkout (2CO), the third-party professional payment platform currently used by the Site, collects and stores its own Personal Data through the Site. The Site’s programmer will also have
access to the Site for the purpose of maintenance, revisions, updates, etc. Other disclosures of Personal Data may occur where RZ GRAPHICS believes, in good faith, that such disclosure is necessary, for example: in conjunction with any disputes, investigations and/or legal proceedings; in compliance with any relevant laws and regulations; in defense of RZ GRAPHICS or any other Users’ rights and property; etc.

2.4. STORAGE OF PERSONAL DATA

RZ GRAPHICS is committed to protecting the security of the Site’s contents, including a User’s Personal Data; the Site uses password hashing to protect a User’s account, and it is fully and solely the User’s responsibility to keep said password safe and unknown to other Users and/or unauthorized persons; whilst credit card details are stored off-Site by a third party professional payment platform.

2.5. MODIFYING PERSONAL DATA

A User can modify their User Content, including Personal Data, through their User account. Any changes to Personal Data will require the User to be reapproved by RZ GRAPHICS prior to gaining access to the Site and its services. Where a User intends to delete the entirety of his User Content by deleting his User account, then provision 1.7. of this Data Privacy Policy document applies in its entirety.

2.6. TESTIMONIALS AND FEEDBACK

The Site allows all Users to supply feedback, testimonials, and/or endorsements; any feedback is viewed solely by RZ GRAPHICS, whilst testimonials and endorsements may be displayed on the Site along with the User’s name, unless said User wishes to remain anonymous, in which case the User’s avatar will be used. Once submitted, all feedback, testimonials, and endorsements belong to RZ GRAPHICS, but may be modified, updated, and/or deleted by the author (User) by emailing or calling RZ GRAPHICS.

2.7. THIRD PARTIES, LINKED SITES, AND ADVERTISEMENTS

When a User follows a linked Site or advertisement from the Site and/or in any way leaves the Site, the User may end up on another Site and/or in contact with an entity other than RZ GRAPHICS, which may decide to collect their own data from the User, including Personal Data. RZ GRAPHICS Data Privacy Policy document will cease to apply the instant the User navigates away for the Site, including those instances where the User leaves the Site by following any link found on the Site and/or any prompt received by the Site; and the User will then be subject to that Site’s and/or entity’s own data privacy policy (whether or not that Site and/or entity has one), which RZ GRAPHICS has in no way vetted or approved, and for which RZ GRAPHICS accepts no responsibility in whatsoever form.

3. NON-PERSONAL DATA

3.1.  NON-PERSONAL USER DATA

In order to make full use of the Site and its services, the User will have to submit Non-personal Data, examples of which could include: any task details as required by the Site’s task form; any detailed project files; any information shared on the collaboration page; etc. The Non-personal Data entered in the Site’s task form by a User is considered low sensitivity and will be posted on the Site’s task board; the task board will be visible solely to RZ GRAPHICS, but not to any other Users. Non-personal Data such as the detailed project files is treated as being more sensitive and will be posted on the collaboration page only; any User Content posted on the collaboration page, including any conversation between the User and the RZ GRAPHICS, is visible solely to the User and RZ GRAPHICS.

3.2.  DATA OWNERSHIP

All User Content, including both Personal Data and Non-personal Data, as posted by a User belongs fully and solely to that User, including any intellectual property rights associated with that User Content and all the possible liabilities and/or responsibilities that come with such ownership of that User Content; nonetheless, the User hereby agrees that any images present within an RZ GRAPHICS portfolio and can be used by RZ GRAPHICS, at RZ GRAPHICS full and
sole discretion, for advertising purposes. The only transfer of intellectual property rights allowed on the Site occurs through the Image Transfer Agreement document, where the intellectual property rights of those Images marked as completed by the User on the relevant collaboration page are transferred from the RZ GRAPHICS, who created said Images, to the User, who commissioned said Images, as evidenced in the relevant User/ RZ GRAPHICS Agreement; whilst still allowing for the use of said Images by the RZ GRAPHICS, within his portfolio, and for advertising purposes.

3.3.  STORAGE OF NON-PERSONAL DATA

RZ GRAPHICS is committed to protecting the security of the Site’s contents, including a User’s Non-personal Data; the Site uses password hashing to protect a User’s account, and it is fully and solely the User’s responsibility to keep said password safe and unknown to other Users and/or unauthorized persons. Following task closure, the collaboration page, its files, messages, marks, and images are deleted. The high-resolution images will be accessible by the Client through his User account, but only for a finite period of time as deemed reasonable exclusively by RZ GRAPHICS. It is fully and solely the User’s responsibility to ensure he has obtained and made backups of the final high-resolution images.

4. CHANGES TO THIS PRIVACY POLICYTECHNOLOGY

RZ GRAPHICS reserves the right to make changes to this privacy policy at any time by giving notice to its Users on this page. It is strongly recommended to check this page often, referring to the date of the last modification listed at the bottom. If a User objects to any of the changes to the Policy, the User must cease using this Site and can request that the RZ GRAPHICS removes the Personal Data. Unless stated otherwise, the then-current privacy policy applies to all Personal Data the RZ GRAPHICS has about Users.

When a project begins, all our clients become beneficiaries of one of the 2 types of rights to their project results.

5.1.  Standard Image Rights

This is the type of rights all RZ GRAPHICS clients benefit from by default. This means that we reserve the right to use the project imagery for our marketing and advertising purposes. The materials we can use them for include, but are not limited to, social media posts and advertisements, printed and online catalogs, price lists, booklets, blog articles, our portfolio, posts on any other platforms.
