When you visit our Website, our Website automatically records
certain information, such as the IP address, date and time of the visit or the
referral website that sent you to our Website, which we will store for a
limited period of time. We also use other external services of traffic

services do not have access to certain personal Data provided by Users of this
Website.
Any Data used by such parties is used only to the extent
required by them to perform the services that Blueberry Studio requests.
However, certain third-party service providers, such as payment gateways and
other payment transaction processors, have their own privacy policies in
respect to the information we are required to provide to them for your
purchase-related transactions.
For these providers, we recommend that you read their privacy policies so you
can understand the manner in which your personal information will be handled by
these providers.
In particular, remember that certain providers may be
located in or have facilities that are located in a different jurisdiction than
either you or us. So if you elect to proceed with a transaction that involves
the services of a third-party service provider, then your information may
become subject to the laws of the jurisdiction(s) in which that service
provider or its facilities are located.
As an example, if you are located in Canada and your transaction is processed
by a payment gateway located in the United States, then your personal
information used in completing that transaction may be subject to disclosure
under United States legislation, including the Patriot Act.
