Privacy Policy
This policy details the ways in which we collect, store, and use your personal information. This policy is incorporated into the Terms and Conditions which govern your use of The Sound Set Project's website (the "Website"), and all content, products, and services available at or through the Website (collectively, the "Services"). You accept this policy, as part of the Terms and Conditions, when you use, access, or otherwise obtain the Website or Services in any form. Unless explicitly stated otherwise, our current Privacy Policy applies to all information we have about you, your account, and your relationship with us.
Information We Collect and How it's Used
When you visit The Sound Set Project's Website or use The Sound Set Project's Services, we collect your Internet Protocol (IP) address and other standard web log information for each request such as the referring site, browser type, date, time, pages and/or files accessed, operating system, and platform. We collect this information from our servers and may use third-party tools to collect similar information. This information helps us understand how visitors interact with the Website and Services, maintain the integrity of the Website, Services and our other property, and monitor the performance of and improve the content, information, and accessibility of the Website and Services.
We collect and store information you provide us, such as your name, email, address, phone number, computer system, and software through your interaction with the Website and other correspondence with The Sound Set Project. This information is used to process and fulfill the purpose of your interaction with The Sound Set Project, provide Services, and maintain the Website and Services. We may also combine information you provide or that we collect with that of other visitors, anonymously and in the aggregate, for purposes of reporting, statistics, and monitoring trends among our users so we may improve our Website and Services.
The Sound Set Project may require personal information, such as your name, email, address, phone number, order transaction details, and other similar information before permitting you to use the Services or access certain parts of the Website. In some cases, such as placing an order, you may be required to submit information to trusted third-parties that provide services, processing, or other technical resources on The Sound Set Project's behalf and have their own strict privacy standards in place to protect your information. Your sensitive financial information, such as bank account and credit card numbers, is submitted directly to our payment processors and is not collected or stored by The Sound Set Project.
We may use information you provide to contact you related to changes in this Privacy Policy, the Terms and Conditions, other legal notices, or as necessary related to any previous relationship or account established with us. We will not use this information to contact you in regard to other Services or in our marketing campaigns unless you have consented to receive such information (for example, by subscribing to our newsletter or mailing list).
Information collected may be stored even after you have ended your relationship with The Sound Set Project as required by law and for other legitimate business purposes.
The Sound Set Project collects and stores information on servers residing in the United States of America and in some cases the information you provide may be processed outside of your own country. Third-parties which provide services to or on behalf of The Sound Set Project maintain their own servers and data policies which may be located or process information outside of your own country.
Disclosure of Information
The Sound Set Project discloses your personal information only as set forth below:
(A) To its employees, contractors, consultants, affiliates, and service providers that require such information to provide services or process that information on The Sound Set Project's behalf and who have agreed, whether by contract or their own policies, not to disclose it.
(B) To law enforcement, government officials, or other third-parties when compelled to do so by a subpoena, court order, or similar legal procedure, or when we believe in good faith that disclosure is necessary to protect the property, interests, or rights of The Sound Set Project or other third-parties, prevent physical harm or financial loss, to report suspected illegal or fraudulent activity, or to investigate violations of the Terms and Conditions.
The Sound Set Project will not share, rent, or sell your personal information to third-parties for their marketing or other purposes and only shares your personal information with third-parties as described in this Privacy Policy.
Any information you submit directly to a third-party via its website or other application, and that is not entered directly on The Sound Set Project Website, will be shared with that third-party as described in this Privacy Policy and may be subject to its privacy policies.
Cookies
A cookie is a string of information that we transfer to your computer's hard drive through your web browser that allows us to recognize your browser and provide functionality through our Website such as storing items in your shopping cart, checking whether you are logged in, and providing personalized services. A web browser will only allow a cookie to be read by the site which placed it on your computer. Further, our use of cookies does not give us access to your personal computer except that we may collect general non-identifying information about your computer such as described above through the use of a cookie. Cookies may be placed on your system by us or by third-parties which provide services to us or on our behalf when you use the Website. We do not control and are not responsible for the content of third-party cookies.
If you prefer, you may prevent your browser from accepting new cookies, alert you when new cookies are stored, or disable cookies altogether.

You may request certain information we have collected or stored, such as your address, phone number, or email be changed, updated, or deleted by contacting us. We endeavor to make any change within a reasonable period of time after receiving such a request, including deleting information insofar as that information is not otherwise required to be retained by law or for legitimate business purposes. As a protection to your interests and ours, we reserve the right to verify your identity before making any changes to stored information.

Business Transfers
In the unlikely event that The Sound Set Project, or substantially all of its assets, are acquired, or The Sound Set Project enters bankruptcy or otherwise ceases to conduct business, user information would be one of the assets that is transferred or acquired by a third-party. You acknowledge that such transfers may occur and that any user information transferred as part of such a transaction remains subject to the promises made in this Privacy Policy. The Sound Set Project will make good faith efforts to notify you prior to any such transfer or acquisition of assets.
