The information collected and stored by the third party remains subject to the third party's privacy practices, including whether the third party continues to share information with us, the types of information shared, and your choices with regard to what is visible to others on that third party website or service.
To the extent that you submit any Personal Information to any third party (for example, via a third-party software application or service, including any social media service – that is included in, available through or linked to from the L'Atelier Paris Online Properties), such third party's collection, use and disclosure of such information may be governed by its privacy policy, and not by our Privacy Policy.

Please also be aware that we may use third-party cloud service providers that provide hosting, data storage and other services pursuant to standard terms and conditions that may be non-negotiable; these service providers have informed us or the general public that they apply security measures they consider adequate for the protection of information within their system, or they have a general reputation for applying such measures.
Please exercise caution in submitting Personal Information via the L'Atelier Paris Online Properties, especially if you are accessing the L'Atelier Paris Online Properties using a WiFi hotspot or public network. If you have reason to believe that your interaction with us is no longer secure (for example, if you feel that the security of any account that you might have with us has been compromised, or if you are unable to utilize our SSL technology in connection with the L'Atelier Paris Online Properties), please immediately notify us of the problem and place any orders with us over the telephone or in person, instead of using the L'Atelier Paris Online Properties.
