  • External Sites: NOS is not responsible for the content of external internet sites. You are advised to read the privacy policy of external sites before disclosing any personal information.
  • Cookies: A “cookie” is a small data text file that is placed in your browser and allows NOS to recognize you each time you visit this site (customization etc). Cookies themselves do not contain any personal information, and NOS does not use cookies to collect personal information. Cookies may also be used by 3rd party content providers such as news feeds. We include a cookie notice on this site and you have the choice to agree to the use of cookies or to not use this site.
  • Remember The Risks Whenever You Use The Internet: While we do our best to protect your personal information, we cannot guarantee the security of any information that you transmit to NOS and you are solely responsible for maintaining the secrecy of any passwords or other account information. In addition, other Internet sites or services that may be accessible through NOS have separate data and privacy practices independent of us, and therefore we disclaim any responsibility or liability for their policies or actions.
  • What information is being collected? Cookies active on this site might log your IP address so we know whether or not you are a first-time visitor to our site and/or which browser platform you are using to view this site, for examples. No other data is collected unless you choose to give it voluntarily.
  • Who is collecting it? Night Owl Services is a sole proprietorship of Janice F McClintock in the state of Pennsylvania.
  • Do you share it? No one else sees any data *unless it is necessary for the completion of a project requested by you, for auxiliary functions like paying fees or sending content files, or if you agree to my use of a subcontractor for any portion of a project.
  • How is it collected? Other than site cookies, you must choose to send us information via our contact form, our “sharing” pop-up, if you post a comment, or you send data about your or your company’s future project using a questionnaire.
  • Where is it stored? Data is stored on the web site hosting server in a secure Virtual Private Server (VPS), unless we must use it for replying to you via email or completing a project you request.
  • Can I have that data deleted? Upon your written request via email or postal mail, NOS will be glad to securely and completely delete any data we have that pertains to you in any way.

Once payment is received in full, NOS grants the Client copyright and full rights to use the original artwork/graphics.
