PRIVACY POLICY FOR MASTER PLASTER

Effective Date: October 21, 2021

This Privacy Policy is about how Master Plaster collects and uses information from people who use our Services.

The word “Services” in this Privacy Policy means our websites and mobile apps.

Master Plaster is also referred to as “MP,” “we,” “us,” and “our” in this Privacy Policy.

CHILDREN

Some of our Services are attractive to or intended for use by children under the age of 13, while other Services or portions of them are intended for use by persons over the age of 13. When we collect information on our Services or sections of our services that are child-directed, we do so following the principles of the Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA).

In general, we do not ask persons under the age of 13 to provide us with personally identifying information like a name, email address, telephone number, birth date, or address.

We may ask persons aged 13 and older to provide personally identifying information to use certain aspects of our Services, such as signing up for our newsletter, using our contact form, or making a purchase in our shop. Areas of our Services that ask for such personally identifying information have an age gate intended to prevent children under the age of 13 from accessing them.

We understand the importance of providing greater privacy protections when it comes to children. Master Plaster does not knowingly collect or use personally identifying information from users under the age of 13, except where permitted by the Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA).

If Master Plaster learns that we have, without our knowledge, collected personally-identifying information from a user under the age of 13, we will notify the child’s parent if possible and/or delete all information relating to that child and cease to collect any more personal information from that child.

WHAT INFORMATION DO WE COLLECT?

Information That Is Collected Automatically. When our Services are used we may collect some information automatically. This helps us analyze and optimize the performance of our Services. We do not use this information to personally identify users. Information we collect automatically includes information such as user device properties, IP address, Media Access Control (“MAC”) address and unique device identifier or other device identifiers (“UDID”); user device software platform and firmware; user’s mobile phone carrier; user’s internet service provider; the search terms used on our website; specific web pages users visit; the duration of use of our website; geographical data; and other non-personally-identifying information as is reasonably required to enhance our website and other Master Plaster products and services.

This information may be collected from all users of the Services, including children under the age of 13.

User Information That We May Ask For. To use some parts of our Service we request users to provide certain information. For example:

When a user contacts customer support, we ask for the user’s name and email address.
When a user subscribes to our newsletter, we ask for the user’s name, email address, birth date, and country of residence.
When a user enters one of our online contests, we may ask for the user’s name, email address, and birthdate.
When making a purchase from our online shop, we ask for the user’s name, email address, billing information, billing address, shipping address (when necessary), and phone number.
We do not knowingly collect this information from users under the age of 13. Where we ask for this information, we include an age-gate intended to only allow access to users aged 13 or over.
