THE URBAN TWIST, a division of Phoenix Stokes Media Group (“THE URBAN TWIST”) believes that you should control the dissemination of the personally identifiable information that you provide when using the THE URBAN TWIST web site (“the Site”). Please review this policy carefully to understand how we will treat the personally identifiable information that you give to us and other information in connection with the Site. This policy applies only to the Site.

Your use of this Site in any fashion constitutes your agreement to the terms of this Privacy Policy and our Terms of Use. Please review this page periodically. If we decide to change our Privacy Policy, we will post those changes on this page so that you are always aware of what information we collect, how we use it and under what circumstances we disclose it. Your continued use of the Site constitutes your agreement to any such changes.

What personally identifiable information is collected on this Site?
You do not have to provide any personally identifiable information to use the Site. However, when you use the Site to obtain our products and services, to enter giveaways/contests, to post messages on the Site, or for other reasons, you may choose to provide THE URBAN TWIST with certain personally identifiable information as indicated in each such area of the Site, such as your name, physical address, email address, zip code, phone number, and gender. THE URBAN TWIST will make an effort to include a link to the Privacy Policy whenever we ask you for personally identifiable information.

How is my personally identifiable information used by THE URBAN TWIST?
We use the personally identifiable information to provide you with the services you have requested and as otherwise described in this Privacy Policy. We may use the personally identifiable information to send you advertising from selected THE URBAN TWIST partners and advertisers (unless you have opted out of receiving these types of communications).

We may also aggregate the information we collect to develop certain summary reports for our partners and/or advertisers. We provide this information to assist our partners and/or advertisers in determining how to promote their products and services. In doing so, we do not reveal personally identifiable information.

Who has access to my personally identifiable information?
THE URBAN TWIST makes reasonable efforts to ensure that your information is treated securely and in accordance with this Privacy Policy. Except as otherwise described in this Privacy Policy, we do not share your personally identifiable information with any third parties other than our contractors who assist us in providing our services. Unfortunately, no data transmission over the Internet can be guaranteed secure. While we take steps to protect your personally identifiable information, we cannot guarantee the security of any information you transmit to us or from the Site, and you use the Site at your own risk.

What personally identifiable information is disclosed to third parties?
THE URBAN TWIST may share the following personally identifiable information with its advertisers, sponsors, and partners in the following circumstances:

Information you provide when entering into a giveaway, contest, sweepstakes, or promotion sponsored by the Site and/or one of our advertisers/partners/sponsors.

Information you provide when you register to receive goods or services from THE URBAN TWIST or from one of our advertisers/partners/sponsors.

Unless you have opted out of receiving special offers or emails from selected third parties, we may provide a report to an advertiser or partner which tells them who responded to a particular offer. For example, we might send you an email which offers you a discount on a particular product. If you click on that e-mail or accept an offer or discount contained therein, we may provide the advertiser with the personally identifiable information necessary to provide you with that discount.

THE URBAN TWIST may disclose your personally identifiable information if we believe in good faith that we are required to do so in order to comply with applicable law, a subpoena, or other legal processes. THE URBAN TWIST may also disclose information when we have reason to believe that disclosing this information is necessary to identify, contact or bring legal action against someone who may be violating our Terms of Use, or to protect the safety of our users or the public. THE URBAN TWIST may transfer your personally identifiable information in connection with the sale or merger, in whole or in part, of THE URBAN TWIST, its assets or the division responsible for the services being provided to you.

You should be aware that personally identifiable information which you voluntarily include and transmit online in a posting may be viewed and used by others. We are unable to control such uses of your personally identifiable information, and by using such services you assume the risk that the personally identifiable information provided by you may be viewed and used by third parties.

How do I opt out of the collection, disclosure and distribution of personally identifiable information?
You can always choose whether or not to disclose personally identifiable information and that choice will not prevent you from using the Site. Please note, however, that you must provide some personally identifiable information in order to use certain services on the Site. In addition, you can always choose to opt-out of certain uses of your personally identifiable information at any time.

If you do not want your personally identifiable information shared with third parties for their marketing purposes, then please email us at privacy@theurbantwist.com.

However, we are not responsible for removing your personally identifiable information from the lists of any third party who has previously been provided your information in accordance with this policy.
