III. Protection of Information

How The Seam Handles Privacy Internally

In this section of our Policy, we discuss the security measures we take to protect information that we have collected about you.

Security

The Seam uses customary security methods to determine the identity of its registered users so that appropriate rights and restrictions can be enforced for that user. Reliable verification of a user's identity is called authentication. The Seam utilizes usernames, passwords, and unique identifiers to authenticate. In certain restricted and limited situations, IP addresses may be used for authentication. Users are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality and security of authentication data.

The Seam is committed to operating its website and systems with customary internal controls and the highest ethical standards. The Seam uses reasonably available information security measures and techniques to protect users' data. However, transmitting information over the internet is never completely secure and any computers linked to the internet run the risk of being hacked, and thus your information runs the risk of being intercepted, collected, used or disclosed by others. The Seam cannot and does not guarantee complete security.

Third Parties

In addition to aggregated information (discussed previously), we may share some kinds of information with third parties as described below.

Companies and People Who Work for Us: We may contract with other companies and individuals to help us provide services. For example, we may host some of our websites on another company's devices, hire technical consultants to maintain our systems and websites, or work with companies to remove repetitive information from customer lists, analyze data, provide marketing assistance, and provide customer service. In order to perform their jobs, these other companies may have limited access to some of the personal information we maintain about our users. We require all such companies to comply with the terms of our privacy policies, to limit their access to any personal information to the minimum necessary to perform their services, and not to use the information they may access for purposes other than fulfilling their responsibilities to us. We use our best efforts to limit the use of other companies in areas where personally identifiable information may be involved.
Legal Requirements: We may release account and other personal information when we believe release is required to comply with law. We may release such information, if, in our judgment : the release is compelled by law or regulation, the release may be necessary to prevent violation of law or serious injury, or the information is not confidential.

IV. Your Privacy Choices

On certain of our websites, when you complete registration, you may be given the option of receiving informational/promotional emails from The Seam and/or third parties. You may opt-out from receiving these emails at any time. You can unsubscribe from such emails by following the unsubscribe instructions on such email or contacting The Seam's customer support.
