This information is used to analyze trends, administer the site and track site usage.

How we use “Cookies” and why

Personal Information collected from site visitors

Any additional information you provide us, such as your name, organization, address, telephone number, e-mail address, interests and products you subscribe to is only collected upon your request.

In a few areas on our Web Site, we ask you to provide information that will enable us to verify whether you are entitled to access and use certain information, materials and services available from our Web Site, or to enable us to enhance your site visit, to assist you with customer service or technical support issues, or to follow up with you after your visit, or to otherwise support your customer relationship with GalleryWatch.com. It is completely optional for you to participate. However, failure to participate may mean that you cannot access and use certain information, materials and services.

For example, we request information from you when you:

1.    Log-on to certain areas of our Web Site, such as the GalleryWatch.com and USBudget.com subscription services, where you may be prompted to provide us with your GalleryWatch.com ID name and password as a condition to gaining access to certain information, materials or services 

2.    Subscribe to a newsletter or desire to be added to our mailing lists for other products or services 

3.    Participate in a promotional offer, request a trial, request additional product or services information, receive technical or customer support, or receive information outside of subscription services 

4.    Provide feedback in an online survey. 

In each of the instances above, we typically ask for your name, e-mail address, phone number, address, areas of legislative interest, product preference information, as well as other similar personal information that is needed to register or subscribe you to services or offers. On occasion, we may ask for additional information to enable us to provide you with access to and use of certain information, materials and services. In the case of newsletters or mailing lists, you will be able to "unsubscribe" to these mailings at any time.

Circumstances may arise where we are required to disclose your personal information to third parties for purposes other than to support your customer relationship with GalleryWatch.com such as if disclosure is required by law or is pertinent to judicial or governmental investigations or proceedings.
