This privacy policy describes how we collect and use the personal information you provide on our website. By accessing and using our website, you indicate your agreement to this privacy policy.
Please read these terms carefully.
Information we collect
We collect information from you when you subscribe to our email list to receive news and be informed of our classes, when you register for a course, respond to a survey or fill out a form (contact form, payment plan request etc.).
When subscribing or registering, you may be asked, as appropriate, your first and last name, your email address, your mailing address, your preferred language and your credit card information.
Like most website operators, we collect non-personally-identifying information of the sort that web browsers and servers typically make available, such as the browser type, language preference and the referring site. We use this type of information to administer the site and provide the highest possible level of service to you.
The use of your Information
We use the information you provide
– to communicate with you about Emily May’s art and newsletters,
– to improve our products, services and website,
– to process transactions.
Information sharing
We do share your information with trusted third parties who assist us in operating our website, conducting our business and servicing students and visitors, such as our payment processors (Paypal and Stripe), our email service processor, etc. These trusted third parties agree to keep this information confidential. We will never share your personal information with unrelated third parties.
We don’t store your payment card details. That information is provided directly to our third-party payment processors whose use of your personal information is governed by their own privacy policy. These payment processors adhere to the standards set by PCI-DSS as managed by the PCI Security Standards Council, which is a joint effort of brands like Visa, Mastercard, American Express and Discover. PCI-DSS requirements help ensure the secure handling of payment information.
We will never sell or give away the information we collect to anyone other than to satisfy any applicable law, regulation, legal process or governmental request, as required by law.

We do not knowingly collect any information from anyone under 16 years of age. No personally-identifiable information should be given by visitors under 16 years of age without the prior written consent of their parent or guardian.
Security
To protect your personal information, we take reasonable precautions and follow industry best practices to make sure it is safely kept.
But no Internet data exchange can be guaranteed to be fully secure.
