Our communications will include notices about your account (for example, change in password or payment method, confirmation e-mails and other transactional information) and information concerning or related to our service. These communications are part of your relationship with 2xtudios and you receive them as part of the 2xtudios membership.

As part of your registration on our website to use the Services, our website, you agree that you may receive certain administrative communications from us, such as administrative announcements and customer service messages regarding Services and products during the period that we provide Services to you. You may not opt out of receiving such administrative communications.

2xtudios  user interfaces use credit card information solely to check the financial qualifications of prospective customers and to collect payment for the Services.

Our website also uses automatic information obtained through cookies and Web beacons to operate and improve. We may also use automatic information alone or in combination with personal information about our customers to provide personalized information about 2xtudios.com

2xtudios contracts with third-party advertising networks who collect IP addresses and other identifiers on our websites and emails and on third-party websites. Ad networks follow your online activities over time by collecting information through automated means, including through the use of cookies. They use this information to provide advertisements about third-party products and services tailored to your interests. You may see these advertisements on other websites. This process also helps us manage and track the effectiveness of our marketing efforts. 2xtudios, however, does not grant third parties access to any personal information.

Information We Share

We share your personal information with your consent or as necessary to provide the Services. In addition, we share personal information with vendors or agents to provide the Services. For example, companies we’ve hired to provide customer service support may need access to personal information in order to provide those functions. In such cases, these companies must abide by our Privacy Policy and security requirements and are not allowed to use personal information they receive from us for any other purpose. In cases of onward transfer to third parties of data of EU or Swiss individuals received pursuant to EU-US or US-Swiss Privacy Shield, 2xtudios is potentially liable. We may also disclose personal data as part of a corporate transaction such as a merger or sale of assets. We will access, transfer, disclose, and preserve personal information, when we have a good faith belief that doing so is necessary to: (i) comply with applicable law or respond to valid legal process, including from law enforcement or other government agencies; (ii) protect our customers; (iii) operate and maintain the security of our Services, including to prevent or stop an attack on our computer systems or networks; or (iv) protect the rights and interest of 2xtudios. Finally, 2xtudios also may be required to disclose an individual’s personal information in response to a lawful request by public authorities, including to meet national security or law enforcement requirements.

2xtudios does not support Do Not Track technology.

Opting out

2xtudios does not use personal information for marketing its services, either through email or direct mailing. 2xtudios may send some non-marketing communications that are not subject to general opt-out, such as information that you request we send to you or to third parties with whom you do business, and disclosures to comply with legal requirements and other informational notices.

Our newsletter is used as a general means of communication and may include updates to the Services as well as new partner agreements. You have the option to unsubscribe to our newsletter at anytime. If we intend to use your information for a purpose that is not compatible with these purposes or if we intend to disclose it to a type of third party not previously identified, we will notify you and offer you the opportunity to opt out of such uses and/or disclosures.

2xtudios will offer individuals the opportunity to choose (opt out) whether their information is to be disclosed to a third party or to be used for a purpose other than the purpose for which it was originally collected or subsequently authorized by the individual should the occasion arise.

Our Use of Cookies and Other Identifiers

We use identifiers such as cookies, Web beacons and IP addresses to make interactions with users easy and meaningful.

Cookies

When you visit 2xtudios.com, 2xtudios’s servers send a cookie to your computer. Standing alone, cookies do not identify you. They merely recognize your Web browser. Unless you choose to identify yourself to 2xtudios, either by responding to a promotional offer, opening an account, or filling out a Web form, you remain anonymous to 2xtudios.

We use cookies that are session-based and persistent-based. Session cookies exist only during one session. They disappear from your computer when you close your browser software or turn off your computer. Persistent cookies remain on your computer after you close your browser or turn off your computer.

If you have identified yourself to 2xtudios.com, we use session cookies containing encrypted information to identify you uniquely. Each time you log into the Services, your browser saves a session cookie containing an encrypted, unique identifier tied to your account. These session cookies allow 2xtudios.com to identify you uniquely while you are logged into the Services and to process your online transactions and requests. Use of the Services requires session cookies.

2xtudios.com uses persistent cookies that only we can read and use to identify users who have visited our website previously. When you purchase the Services or provide us with personal information, our website assigns a unique identifier to you. This unique identifier derives from a persistent cookie that 2xtudios.com places on your Web browser. We especially are careful about the security and confidentiality of the information stored in persistent cookies. For example, we store neither account numbers nor passwords in persistent cookies. If you disable your Web browser’s ability to accept cookies, you will be able to navigate 2xtudios.com, but you will be unable to use the Services successfully.

We may use information from session and persistent cookies in combination with data about 2xtudios’s website users to provide you with information about us and the Services.

The Help portion of the toolbar on most browsers will tell you how to prevent your browser from accepting new cookies, how to have the browser notify you when you receive a new cookie, and how to disable cookies. You also can disable or delete similar data used by browser add-ons, such as Flash cookies, by changing the add-on’s settings or visiting the website of its manufacturer. We recommend that you leave cookies turned on, however, because they allow you to take advantage of some of 2xtudios’s essential features.

Web Beacons

We use Web beacons alone or in conjunction with cookies to compile information about usage of 2xtudios.com and user interaction with emails from 2xtudios.com. Web beacons are clear electronic images that can recognize certain types of information on your computer, such as cookies, when you viewed a particular website tied to the Web beacon, and a description of a website tied to the Web beacon. For example, we may place Web beacons in marketing emails that notify 2xtudios.com when you click on a link in the email that directs you to 2xtudios.com. 2xtudios uses Web beacons to operate and improve 2xtudios.com and email communications.

2xtudios may use information from Web beacons in combination with data about users to provide you with information about 2xtudios.com and the Services.

When you visit 2xtudios.com, we collect your Internet Protocol (“IP”) addresses to track and aggregated non-personal information. For example, we use IP addresses to monitor the regions from which users navigate 2xtudios.com.

We also collect your IP address when you log into the Services as part of our security features.

Third Party Cookies

We occasionally engage third parties to track and analyze usage and volume statistical information from users of 2xtudios’s user interfaces, including our website, 2xtudios.com. We also may use other third-party cookies to track the performance of our advertisements. The information provided to third parties includes no personal information, but this information may be re-associated with personal information after we receive it.

Users may elect to use our WebPartner Affiliate Program to inform friends about 2xtudios. We request the name and email address of each referred friend. 2xtudios will send a one-time automatic email to the friend inviting him or her to visit our user interfaces.
