We may disclose your Personal Information to any of our employees, officers, insurers, professional advisers, agents, Third Party Service Providers, suppliers or subcontractors, to the extent that such disclosure is reasonably necessary for the purposes set out in this Privacy Policy.
YOUR CONSENT
GRAFICO obtains your consent to collect, use or disclose your personal information, except as permitted by law. The method of obtaining consent depends on the circumstances and the sensitivity of the information. Consent may be oral or written, express or implied. Your express consent (verbal, written or electronic agreement) is obtained to collect, use or disclose sensitive personal information. Implied consent is obtained in circumstances where a customer relationship already exists, express consent has previously been given, or the purpose of using the personal information is reasonably apparent to you. You can change your consent preferences at any time by contacting our designated Privacy Officer at the e-mail address referred to in the section “MISCELLANEOUS” below.
You may “opt-out” or withdraw your consent to the collection, use and disclosure of your Personal Information as set out in this Privacy Policy at any time.

Such automatically gathered information may be used by GRAFICO for the operation of the Services provided to you via the Web Site or otherwise, to maintain the quality of the Services provided through the Web Site or otherwise, and to provide GRAFICO with general statistics relating to use of the Services and/or Web Site. We may use IP addresses to analyze trends, administer the web site, track user’s movement, to determine what Services are the most popular, advertise, and gather broad demographic information for aggregate use.
HOW WE PROTECT AND SECURE YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION
GRAFICO secures your Personal Information from unauthorized access, use and disclosure by third parties. We use a variety of security technologies and procedures to help protect your Personal Information. For example, we may secure the Personal Information you provide on computer servers in a controlled, secure environment, protected from unauthorized use. We may also protect Personal Information through the use of encryption software. All of our Third Party Service Providers are required under their contracts with us to maintain your confidentiality and may not use your information for any unauthorized purpose. We review our procedures and security measures regularly to ensure that they are properly administered and remain effective and appropriate for the sensitivity of the information.
There are always risks associated with providing Personal Information and sensitive data, whether in person, by phone, mobile, or tablet device, via the Internet or via other technologies. You acknowledge that the transmission of information and data over the Internet is inherently insecure, and there are no security systems that are completely safe or fool-proof against hacking or tampering. We will take reasonable precautions to prevent and minimize such risks in connection with your Personal Information, but GRAFICO offers no (and hereby expressly disclaims any) guarantee, representation, warranty, or covenant of any kind with respect to securing your Personal Information from unauthorized access, use and disclosure by third parties.
You are solely responsible for controlling access to your accounts associated with the Web Site and/or the Services and maintaining the confidentiality and security of your accounts and related password information.
We will not keep Personal Information for any longer than is necessary for the purposes identified in this Privacy Policy. Personal Information no longer required will be destroyed, erased, or made anonymous.
