How we use your personal data
Except as is otherwise provided in this Privacy Policy, at no time is your personal data sold by Hankscraft Inc. to third parties, data brokers, advertisers, or data marketplaces.

Marketing messages
Hankscraft Inc. occasionally sends out emails related to company news and offerings. You may elect to receive these messages by opting in on our communication forms, by requesting an opt-in through our sales team, or by scanning your name tag at a trade show or event.
Hankscraft may also send marketing messages to website visitors who consent to sharing data by visiting our website.
If you decide you no longer want to receive our emails, you may opt-out at any time by sending your request to Hankscraft Customer Service at [email protected].
How long data is kept
We keep your data until you contact us and tell us to modify or delete it from our servers or until we determine that maintaining your data is no longer necessary to provide you with our services, for our own legitimate interests (described above) or so that we can comply with relevant laws. We will actively review the information we hold and when there is no longer a customer, legal or business need for us to hold it, we will either delete it securely or in some cases anonymize it.
How we protect your data
We protect your personal data against unauthorized access, unlawful use, accidental loss, corruption and destruction.
We use technical measures such as encryption and multi-factor authentication to protect your data and the third-party systems in which they are held. We also use operational measures to protect the data—for example: by limiting the number of people who have access to the databases in which our registered users’ information is held.
We review security measures and refer to industry security standards to keep up-to-date with best practices. We cannot guarantee, ensure or warrant the security of any personal information you transmit to us.
How we share and track your data
Except as otherwise set forth in this Privacy Policy, at no time is your personal data sold by Hankscraft Inc. to third parties, data brokers, advertisers, or data marketplaces.
However, for specified reasons, we may share some of your personal data with, or obtain personal data from, the following categories of third parties:
- Third party service providers: We may disclose your data to third-party service providers, including, but not limited to distributors and common carriers to help us process orders, deliver products, and otherwise assist us in running our business.
- Government authorities such as border control and law enforcement: We are sometimes required to provide personal data to government authorities, such as customs officials, to ensure that you receive product/services or to meet our legal and regulatory obligations.
- Where required or permitted by law, such as in conjunction with a subpoena, government inquiry, litigation, dispute resolution, or similar legal process, when we believe in good faith that disclosure is necessary to protect your rights, your safety, or the safety of others, to detect, investigate and prevent fraud, or to conduct screening to ensure you are not on any government list of restricted parties.
If the ownership of all or substantially all of our business changes or we otherwise transfer all or part of our assets relating to our business or the website to a third-party, such as by merger, acquisition, bankruptcy proceeding, joint venture, partnership or otherwise, we may transfer or sell your personal data to the new owner. In such a case, unless you agree differently or unless otherwise permitted by applicable law, your information would remain subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Privacy Policy.
