We take your privacy seriously. We’re committed to keeping your data safe and giving you full control over if and how your data is used. The following policy is for www.robinhostickart.com, and only applies to information collected through this web site unless otherwise stated in the policy. Read on for more information about the types of information collected, who it is shared with, how it can be corrected, how it is secured, how we’ll communicate policy changes, and what to do if you have any concerns about our policy or the use of your information.

Security
We take a variety of important measures to help ensure your information is kept safe both online and offline.
Any sensitive information you share through our website is encrypted and protected using current SSL certificates managed by Squarespace (web site host) storefront. Our website is enabled with secure SSL settings, which can be verified by the lock icon in your browser, as well as the “https” prefix on the web address. All credit card transactions are processed through the secure storefront operated by Squarespace.com, with credit card orders processed through Stripe.com. Click here to see Stripe.com security practices. Purchases are also enabled through Apple Pay and PayPal.
Credit card numbers must be entered anew for each purchase; Robin Hostick Art does not currently use customer accounts. Robin Hostick Art does not collect or store any credit card numbers.
We do not, and will not, use email to request or transmit sensitive personal information like credit card numbers. For orders paid by credit card, your order confirmation emails will only display the last four (4) digits of your credit card number.
All orders processed through the embedded fineartamerica.com print shop storefront are handled according to Fine Art America’s privacy policies, terms and conditions, which may be viewed here.
In addition to encryption security for online purchases and sharing of personal information, we also take measures to keep your information secure offline.
