Administrative Messages

PotteryDaily may periodically email you with administrative messages. PotteryDaily will not sell or rent your personal information to third parties for their marketing purposes without your explicit consent. Your information may be combined with information PotteryDaily collects from other companies and used to improve and personalize services, content and advertising. If you don't wish to receive administrative messages or participate in these programs, simply opt-out by emailing support@PotteryDaily.com.

PotteryDaily offers subscriptions to PotteryDaily email newsletters. To opt-in, PotteryDaily will ask for your email address and the newsletter(s) you wish to receive. This email address will only be used for this feature. You may change your subscription or unsubscribe at anytime by following the instructions contained in the email.

Friend Features

"Invite a Friend" is a feature in which members can send a one-time email message to invite someone to join PotteryDaily. "Tell a Friend" allows members to share information about a specific item listed on PotteryDaily by sending a personalized email message.

If you choose to use PotteryDaily's "Invite a Friend" or "Tell a Friend" features, PotteryDaily will ask for the information needed to send the message, such as your friend's email address. PotteryDaily will then automatically send your friend an email, inviting your friend to visit the site. For the "Invite a Friend" feature, PotteryDaily stores the information for the purpose of sending this message, limiting the ability to send invitations to one per recipient-sender combination and tracking the success of this feature (registration referrals). PotteryDaily does not store "Tell a Friend" information on our servers. Your friend may utilize the "unsubscribe" link in the email to opt-out of receiving future "Tell a Friend" emails from PotteryDaily.

Choice/Opt-out

If you no longer wish to receive administrative messages, you may opt-out by emailing support@PotteryDaily.com. Please note that if you do not wish to receive administrative messages from us, those notices will still govern your use of the PotteryDaily website and service, and you are responsible for reviewing such notices for changes.

You can configure your browser to accept all cookies, reject all cookies, or notify you when a cookie is set. If you reject all cookies, you will not be able to use PotteryDaily products or services that require you to "sign in," and you may not be able to take full advantage of the PotteryDaily service. PotteryDaily uses its own cookies for a number of purposes, including to: Access your information when you "sign in"; keep track of preferences you specify while you are using PotteryDaily's services; display the most appropriate advertising banners, based on your interests and activity on PotteryDaily; estimate and report PotteryDaily's total audience size and traffic; conduct research to improve PotteryDaily's content and services.

Information Sharing and Disclosure

When you post a message, your PotteryDaily ID or alias is visible to other users. If you post personal information online that is accessible to the public, you may receive unsolicited messages from other parties in return. PotteryDaily may be required to disclose personally identifiable information under special circumstances, such as to comply with subpoenas or when your actions violate the PotteryDaily Terms of Use. PotteryDaily may disclose personally identifiable information to parties in compliance with PotteryDaily's Copyright and Intellectual Property Policy, as PotteryDaily in PotteryDaily's sole discretion believes necessary or appropriate in connection with an investigation of fraud, intellectual property infringement, piracy, or other unlawful activity. In such events, PotteryDaily may disclose name, street address, city, state, zip code, country, phone number, email address and company name. PotteryDaily may share aggregated demographic information with business partners.

PotteryDaily will not rent, sell, or share personal information about you with nonaffiliated parties except as specified in this Privacy Policy to provide products or services you have requested or when PotteryDaily has your permission. It may be necessary to share information in order to investigate, prevent, or take action regarding illegal activities, suspected fraud, situations involving potential threats to the physical safety of any person, violations of PotteryDaily's Terms of Use, as specified in this Privacy Policy or as otherwise required by law. In some cases, PotteryDaily may choose to buy or sell assets. In these types of transactions, customer information is typically one of the business assets that is transferred. PotteryDaily will transfer information about you if PotteryDaily is acquired by or merged with another company. In this event, PotteryDaily will notify you by email or by putting a prominent notice on the PotteryDaily web site before information about you is transferred and becomes subject to a different privacy policy.

As part of the buying and selling process, you may obtain another PotteryDaily user's email address, shipping address and/or other information. Pursuant to PotteryDaily's Terms of Use, you have a limited license to use this information. This information should only be used for PotteryDaily-related communications or for PotteryDaily-facilitated transactions. PotteryDaily has not granted you a license to use the information for unsolicited commercial messages. Without limiting the foregoing, without express consent from the user, you are not licensed to add any PotteryDaily user to your email or physical mail list.

Without limiting the above, in an effort to respect your privacy and PotteryDaily's ability to keep the community free from bad actors, PotteryDaily will not otherwise disclose your personal information to law enforcement, other government officials, or other third parties without a subpoena, court order, legal process, or substantially similar legal procedure, except when PotteryDaily believes in good faith that the disclosure of information is necessary to protect PotteryDaily's rights, prevent imminent physical harm or financial loss, or to report suspected illegal activity.

Forums / Chat Rooms

If you use a forum or chat room on this site, you should be aware that any personally identifiable information you submit there can be read, collected, or used by others or could be used to send you unsolicited messages. PotteryDaily is not responsible for the personally identifiable information you choose to submit in these forums.

Third Parties

Except as otherwise expressly included in this Privacy Policy, this document addresses only the use and disclosure of information PotteryDaily collects from you. If you disclose your information to others, whether they are buyers or sellers on PotteryDaily or throughout the internet, different rules may apply to their use or disclosure of the information you disclose to them. PotteryDaily does not control the privacy policies of third parties, and you are subject to the privacy policies of those third parties where applicable.

Security

The security of your personal information is important to us. Your PotteryDaily account information is protected by a password for your privacy and security. You need to work to protect against unauthorized access to your password and to your computer by signing off once you have finished using a shared computer. When you enter sensitive information (such as credit card number) for registration PotteryDaily encrypts that information using secure socket layer technology (SSL). PotteryDaily follows generally accepted industry standards to protect the personal information submitted to us, both during transmission and once PotteryDaily receives it. No method of transmission over the Internet, or method of electronic storage, is 100% secure. Therefore, while PotteryDaily strives to use commercially acceptable means to protect your personal information, PotteryDaily cannot guarantee its absolute security. If you have any questions about security on PotteryDaily's Web site, you can email PotteryDaily at support@PotteryDaily.com.
