What is personal information?

Personal information is personally identifiable information such as your name, phone number, e-mail address or other information required for us to transact business with you. It also includes technical information such as the website that referred you to us, your IP address, and the path you take through our web pages when you visit our website. Publicly available information, such as public directory listing of your name, address, telephone number and e-mail address is not considered personal information. GBB collects this information only if you provide it to us and uses it solely for the purpose for which you have provided it, whether it be to request information, make a payment, order a photograph or to contact you for reasons related to your original communication to us. On some pages, we allow you to share personal data with third parties, such as social networks like Facebook. In these instances, you are agreeing to the data being shared and the shared data is subject to the privacy policies of these third parties. We may collect information we receive from those platforms (e.g., likes, page views). Except where required by applicable law or regulation, we do not control and do not assume any responsibility for the use of personal data by such third parties.
