We may also use such technologies to collect information when you interact with services we offer through third-party brand partners.
What does Fabrica Collective do with the information?
We strongly believe in both minimising the data we collect and limiting its use and purpose to only that for which we have been given permission, as necessary to deliver the Services you interact with, and where we might be required or permitted for legal compliance or other lawful purposes.
We process information (either personally-identifiable or not) we collect, that has either been provided directly or in-directly by you or automatically collected for certain business legitimate interests which may include some or all of the following:
Personal Information that you supply to us:
We receive and hold any information you enter on our Service or supply to us in any other way to help personalise the service, and improve our offerings. The categories of Personal Information gathered may include your name, email address, phone number, device information, and browser information. The Personal Information you supply is employed for such ends as: enabling you to interact with us, making improvements to the Service, customizing the promotions and content you see, and communicating with you regarding special offers and new components or aspects of the Service. We may also draw upon this Personal Information in order to modify the Service to your requirements, to confirm the effectiveness and consumer appeal of our Service, and to originate new products, services, features, and functions.
Automatic Collection of Personal Information:
We collect and hold certain categories of information whenever you interact with our Service. Fabrica Collective automatically collects and records cookie information, the information you requested, and the information delivered to you. Generally, our Service automatically collects usage information, such as the quantity and frequency of visitors. Fabrica Collective uses this information in aggregate form only for statistical purposes, and not in a way that could identify you personally. This category of aggregate information allows us to determine, among other things, how frequently users employ elements of the Service so that we can ensure the Service remains as broadly appealing as possible.

The site permits you to connect with certain third party services (e.g., Twitter, Facebook and other similar services).

Will personal information be shared with others?
Personal Information about our users is a key component of our business. We do not rent or sell your Personal Information on an individualized, personally-identifiable basis to anyone. We may share your Personal Information only as set out below:
We use a number of third party services to help us deliver our service– for example, our site servers are backed up using a third party service called InMotion Hosting.
We have identified these services in full below; we have verified that these third party services are GDPR compliant (or are working towards GDPR compliance), and are certified under the EU-US Privacy Shield Framework (or are working towards certification) where these organisations are based outside of the EU.
