A CANADIAN LANDSCAPE AND WILDLIFE ARTIST
We will treat your information responsibly and with respect in order to earn your trust.
This Privacy Policy describes how and when I collect, use, and share information when you purchase an item from me, contact me, or otherwise use my services through my website.
This Privacy Policy does not apply to the practices of third parties that I do not own or control, including Squarespace, Federation of Canadian Artists or any other third parties.
HOW IS CONSENT DEFINED?
When an individual contacts me and/or purchases something from my website, they need to provide personal information such as name, address, email address in order to receive their item(s). This constitutes as an agreement for me to process and use this data for the purpose intended.
PURCHASE ORIGINAL ART
As part of the buying and selling process, when you purchase original artwork or reproduction prints (Giclée or Lithographic) from my website, personal data such as your name, address & email needs to given. The information you supply enables me to send your item and provide updates about your purchase.
FINANCIAL TRANSACTIONS
Financial transactions relating to my website will be handled with Interac e-transfer and by our payment services providers Paypal and Squarespace [Squarespace Privacy Policy). We do not have access to bank details or credit card details.
Personal data that we process for any purpose or purposes shall not be kept for longer than is necessary for that purpose or those purposes. You can request for this data to be deleted at any time, by going to CONTACT, on website and completing form.
INFORMATION REQUESTS
For information requests only, the name, address and email records will be kept for one month, then deleted.
FUTURE REPRODUCTIONS (Giclée and/or Lithographic)
For the purpose of creating reproductions of original artworks in either Giclée and/or Lithographic form, the artist may need access to original art purchaser records, name, address and email for the purpose of obtaining a high resolution digital image of the original art. This image functions as an intermediary in the process of making reproductions.
In most cases these images have already been created before purchaser obtains the original art. There are times when this has been inadvertently missed and there is a demand for reproductions to be made. A request like this can only happen with the co-operation of the current owner of the original art and the artist.
FUTURE RETROSPECTIVE SHOWS
For the purpose of retrospective art shows which can occur between ten and twenty years apart, the artist may need access to original art purchaser records, name, address and email for the purpose of borrowing art for use in a retrospective show. A show like this can only happen with the co-operation of the current owner of the original art and the artist.
A Retrospective is an exhibition that shows off the entire oeuvre of an artist's career. Typically arranged chronologically and later in an artist's life, retrospectives treat art viewers to the progression of the work in a single space.
Note: The official website of Harvey Bodach will continue to grow, with additions and changes in service. In order to better serve you better, the Launch Date and major Updates will be published in the FOOTER area of the website.
