We collect several types of information from and about users of our Site, including information:
By which you may personally identified (“personally identifiable information”), such as your first and last name, e-mail address, street address, zip code, phone number, subscriber status, age, gender, and credit or debit card information. We may also retain the details of purchases and other transactions, or payments made with us.
From your browser or device, such as your IP address, the time you spend on our Site, your email address, your browser type, operating system and platform, your purchase history, product and pages you view, products and services you search for, length of page visits, and other browser interaction information and/or, about your internet connection, the equipment you use to access our Site, and other general usage details.
We collect personal information that you may provide, including: your name, mailing address, phone number, email address, credit card number, and financial information, and records and copies of your correspondence. The non-personal information that we may collect includes your browser type, the URL of the previous website you visited, your ISP, operating system, and your Internet protocol (IP) Address. The non-personal information is not used by us to personally identify you and is not readily usable for that purpose.
The information we receive from your web browser and device is not, in and of itself, personally identifiable. However, we may combine it with other information in an attempt to identify you or we may combine it with information that does identify you. We may also review our server logs for security purposes—for example, to detect intrusions into our network—and we might share our server logs, which contain visitors’ IP addresses, with the appropriate investigative authorities who could use that information to trace and identify you.
Whenever we collect information about you, we will make an effort to link to our Privacy Policy.
How We Collect Information

When you subscribe to our service or otherwise make a purchase through our Site, we will collect your name, mailing address, telephone number, credit card number, email address, and other information that we request during the registration process.

We also receive information from you as a result of your visiting our site, sending us emails including your IP address, your email address, your browser type and version, your operating system and platform, your purchase history, products you view, products you search for, length of visits to pages and other browser interaction information.
We may use analytic and reporting technologies, including but not limited to Google Analytics, to record non-personal information such as Internet domain and host names, Internet protocol (IP) addresses, browser software, operating system types, click patterns, and the dates and times that the Site and our services are accessed by you. We may in contract with a third party to help us manage, monitor and optimize our Site and measure the effectiveness of our advertising, communications and use of the Site. We may use web beacons and cookies (described below) for this purpose.
The information we collect automatically is used for statistical data and will not include personal information. We use this data to improve our Site and our service offerings.
How We Use Your Information
Our primary goal in collecting personal information is to provide you with a customized experience, to fulfill your requests for products and services (including purchases) or any other purposes for which you provide it, to provide you with notices about your account, to improve the content and overall look and feel of our Site and services, to conduct internal research as necessary, and in any other may we describe when you provide the information. We use your personal information primarily for our own internal purposes, such as providing, maintaining, evaluating, and improving our Site and the products and services we offer and sell, to collect credit card payments for subscription fees and other purchases you make, and to provide customer support.
From time to time, we may use non-identifiable aggregate information to better design our Site and to share with select advertising partners, sponsors, and/or affiliates and to assist us in providing, maintaining, evaluating, and improving our Site and the services and products we offer and sell. For example, we may tell an advertiser that X number of individuals visited a certain area on our Site, or that Y number of men and Z number of women filled out our registration form, but we would not disclose anything that could be used to personally identify those individuals.
Release or Disclosure of Your Information
As a general rule, we do not sell, rent, lease or otherwise transfer any information collected whether automatically or through your voluntary action, except to provide products or services you’ve requested through us, or in response to a validly issued subpoena, court order, or other legal process, including to respond to any government or regulatory request, to enforce our Terms of Use HERE and any other agreement(s), including for billing and collection purposes, or when necessary to establish or exercise our legal rights, or defend against legal claims made by you or on your behalf.
We will disclose your personal information to a third party, including a lawyer or collection agency, when necessary, to protect or enforce our legal rights and policies, including our Terms of Service, or Terms and Conditions, to protect or enforce the legal rights of a third party, or as we in good faith believe we are required to do so by law (such as to comply with a subpoena, court order, or to cooperate with a legal investigation, for example) or if we believe disclosure is necessary or appropriate to protect the rights, property, or safety of Crush Studio, our customers, or others.
We may contract with various third parties who help us provide, maintain and improve the Site and the services we provide and the services and products we offer and sell, and such third parties may have access to your personal information in order to perform their services. For example, we use a third party to process payments made to us, and may subcontract out production, fulfillment, analytics, reporting or other operations. We may contract with third party contractors to help us manage, monitor and optimize our Site and the services and products we offer and sell. We may also use third party contractors to help us measure the effectiveness of our advertising, and communications.
We may disclose non-personal Information, in aggregate form, to potential strategic partners, advertisers, investors, customers, and others. You may not opt-out of the sharing of this information.
