For example, if you access our websites or Service through a third-party connection or log-in, for example, through Instagram or through Facebook, by “following,” “liking,” adding a 3D Control Systems application, linking your account to the 3D Control Systems Service, etc., that third party may pass certain information about your use of its service to 3D Control Systems.

We may group this and other information with your personal information. We may use the information regarding your hobbies, interests, and other information you make available through third party services for the purpose of suggesting content to you that we believe you will find interesting.

How we share information


Service Providers:

    We may share your information with third parties who provide services to 3D Control Systems such as supporting and improving the Services, promoting the Services, processing payments, or fulfilling orders. These service providers will only have access to the information necessary to perform these limited functions on our behalf and are required to protect and secure your information.

Affiliates and Acquirers of our Business or Assets:

    We may share your information with third parties who provide services to 3D Control Systems such as supporting and improving the Services, promoting the Services, processing payments, or fulfilling orders. These service providers will only have access to the information necessary to perform these limited functions on our behalf and are required to protect and secure your information.

Legal Requirements:

    We may also transfer information about you if the Company is acquired by or merged with another company. In this event, we will notify you before information about you is transferred and becomes subject to a different privacy policy.

Third Party Business via API or Other Integrations:

    When you use or connect to a 3D Control Systems website or download the 3D Control Systems mobile app by or through a Third Party Platform, such as Facebook or other social networking site, you allow us to access and/or collect certain information from your Third Party Platform profile/account (such as your Facebook account) or via any cookies placed on your device by such Third Party Platform as permitted by the terms of the agreement and your privacy settings with the Third Party Platform. We will share such information with the Third Party Platform for their use as permitted by the terms of the agreement and your privacy setting with the Third Party Platform. We will share some of the information we collect from you upon install of the mobile app with vendors and other service providers who are engaged by or working with us in connection with the operation of the services we provide to you and/or for analytics purposes which may require the reproduction and display of such information in an aggregated and anonymized manner such that will not in any way identify you.


How we store and protect your information


Safeguarding your information:

    We take several measures to safeguard the collection, transmission and storage of the data we collect. Although we strive to employ reasonable protections for your information that are appropriate to its sensitivity, we do not guarantee or warrant the security of the information you share with us and we are not responsible for the theft, destruction, loss or inadvertent disclosure of your information or content. No system is 100% secure. The Services uses industry standard Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) technology to allow for the encryption of personal information and credit card numbers. The Services are registered with site identification authorities so that your browser can confirm 3D Control Systems identity before any personally identifiable information is sent. In addition, 3D Control Systems secure servers protect this information using advanced firewall technology. To help ensure that these measures are effective in preventing unauthorized access to your private information, you should be aware of the security features available to you through your browser. You should use a security-enabled browser to submit your credit card information and other personal information at the Services. Please note that if you do not use a SSL-capable browser, you are at risk for having data intercepted. Most browsers have the ability to notify you if you change between secure and insecure communications, receive invalid services identification information for the Services you are communicating with, or send information over an unsecured connection. 3D Control Systems recommends that you enable these browser functions to help ensure that your communications are secure. You can also monitor the URL of the services you are visiting (secure URLs begin with https:// rather than http://), along with the security symbol of your browser to help identify when you are communicating with a secure server. You can also view the details of the security certificate of the services to which you are connected. Please check the validity of any Services you connect to using secure communications.
    3D Control Systems accounts require an email and password to log in. You must keep your email and password secure, and never disclose it to a third party. Account passwords are encrypted, which means we cannot see your passwords. We cannot resend forgotten passwords either. We will only reset them.

Notice of Breach of Security:

    If a security breach causes an unauthorized intrusion into our system that materially affects you or your information, then 3D Control Systems will notify you as soon as possible and later report the action we took in response.

Disclaimer:

    While 3D Control Systems continues to work hard to protect your personal information, no data transmission over the Internet can be guaranteed to be absolutely secure, and 3D Control Systems cannot ensure or warrant the security of any information you transmit to 3D Control Systems. Transmitting personal information is done at your own risk.
