Our Commitment to Privacy: Your privacy is important to us. To better protect your privacy we provide this notice explaining our online information practices and the choices you can make about the way your information is collected and used. To make this notice easy to find, we make it available on our website.
The Information We Collect: This notice applies to all information collected or submitted on the Ability Foundry and/or Bansen Labs websites. On some pages, you can order products, make requests, and register to receive materials. Some of the types of personal information collected on these pages are your name, username, password, and email address. Some of this information, for example, your name and username, is listed publicly on our Services, including on your profile page and in search results. Some Services, such as search, and homepage and video viewing, do not require registration.
We collect and use your information to provide our Services and improve them over time.
Additional Information: You may provide us with additional information to make public, such as a short biography, your location, or a picture. On some pages, you can submit information about other people. For example, if you order a gift online and want it sent directly to the recipient, you will need to submit the recipient's address. In this circumstance, the types of personal information collected may include and are not limited to name, address, and phone number.
The Way We Use Information: We use the information you provide about yourself when placing an order only to complete that order. We do not share this information with outside parties except to the extent necessary to complete that order.
We use the information you provide about someone else when placing an order only to ship the product and to confirm delivery. We do not share this information with outside parties except to the extent necessary to complete that order.
We use return email addresses to answer the email we receive and/or sign up for our mailing list. Such addresses are not used for any other purpose and are not shared with outside parties.
You can register with our website if you would like to use certain services. We will not share this information with outside parties.
We use non-identifying and aggregate information to better design our website and to share with advertisers. For example, we may tell an advertiser that X number of individuals visited a certain area on our website, or that Y number of men and Z number of women filled out our registration form, but we will not disclose anything that could be used to identify those individuals.
Finally, we never use or share the personally identifiable information provided to us online in ways unrelated to the ones described above without also providing you an opportunity to opt-out or otherwise prohibit such unrelated uses.
What you say on the Ability Foundry and/or Bansen Labs websites may be viewed all around the world instantly.

Third Party Services: Ability Foundry and/or Bansen Labs uses Google Analytics to help understand use of our Services.

Our Commitment to Data Security: To prevent unauthorized access, maintain data accuracy, and ensure the correct use of information, we have put in place appropriate physical, electronic, and managerial procedures to safeguard and secure the information we collect online.
Our Commitment to Children's Privacy: Protecting the privacy of children is especially important. For that reason, we never collect or maintain information at our website from those we actually know are under 13, and no part of our website is structured to attract anyone under 13.
Law and Harm: We may disclose your information if we believe that it is reasonably necessary to comply with a law, regulation or legal request; to protect the safety of any person; to address fraud, security or technical issues; or to protect Ability Foundry and/or Bansen Labs’ rights or property.
Business Transfers: In the event that Ability Foundry and/or Bansen Labs is involved in a bankruptcy, merger, acquisition, reorganization or sale of assets, your information may be sold or transferred as part of that transaction. The promises in this privacy policy will apply to your information as transferred to the new entity.

To protect your privacy and security, we will also take reasonable steps to verify your identity before granting access or making corrections if a formal request is made.
We may revise this Privacy Policy from time to time. The most current version of the policy will govern our use of your information and will always be on our homepage. If we make a change to this policy that, in our sole discretion, is material, we will notify you via an e-mail to the email associated with your account.
