Information Collected and Stored Automatically

If you do nothing during your visit but browse through the Website, read pages, or download information, we will gather and store certain information about your visit automatically.  However, this information does not identify you personally.  We automatically collect and store information like the following concerning your visit:
  (i) the Internet domain (e.g., “company.com” or “school.edu”);
  (ii) your IP address from which you access the Website;
  (iii) the type of browser and operating system used to access the Website;
  (iv) the date and time you access the Website;
  (v) Website pages you visit; and

We use this information to help us make the Website more useful to visitors, to learn about the number of visitors to the Website, and the types of technology our visitors use.  

Cookies

The technologies we use for this automatic data collection include so-called “cookies,” which consist of a small file placed on the hard drive of your computer.  You may refuse to accept browser cookies by activating the appropriate setting on your browser.  However, if you select this setting you may be unable to access certain portions of the Website.  Unless you have adjusted your browser setting so that it will refuse cookies, our system will issue cookies when you direct your browser to our Website.

Additionally, certain features of our Website may use locally stored objects (“Flash cookies”) to collect and store information about your preferences and navigation to, from and on our Website. Flash cookies are similar to browser cookies, except that they can store data more complex than simple text.  Flash cookies, by themselves, cannot do anything to or with the data on your computer.  In addition, flash cookies cannot access or remember your e-mail address or other personal information unless you provide the information on our site.  We use flash cookies to provide you with a better user experience.  Flash cookies are not managed by the same browser settings as are used for browser cookies. 

Information You Provide to Us

We do not collect personally identifiable information unless you choose to provide it to us.  If you provide us with personally identifiable information by, for example, sending us an e-mail or filling out a form and submitting it through the Website, we use that information to respond to your message and to help us provide you with the information and services that you request.  Uses of that information are described on the pages containing such form.  Submitting voluntary information constitutes your consent to the use of the information for the stated purpose. When you click the “Submit” button on any of the forms found on the Website, you are indicating your voluntary consent to use of the information you submit for the purpose stated.

The information we collect on or through our Website may include
  (i) information that you provide by filling in forms on our Website;
  (ii) records and copies of your correspondence, if you contact us; and
  (iii) your search queries, if any, on the Website.

We use information that we collect about you or that you provide to us, including any personal information:
  (i) To present our Website and their contents to you.
  (ii) To provide you with information that you request from us.
  (iii) To fulfill any other purpose for which you provide it.
  (iv) To carry out our obligations and enforce our rights arising from any contracts entered into between you and us, as applicable.
  (v) To notify you about changes to our Website.

We make every effort to disclose clearly how information is used at the point where it is collected so you can determine whether you wish to provide the information.

Disclosure of Your Information

We may disclose aggregated information about our users and information that does not identify any individual without restriction. We may disclose personal information that we collect or you provide as described in this Policy:
  (i) To our affiliates and subsidiaries - To contractors, service providers and other third parties we use to support our business and who are bound by contractual obligations to keep personal information confidential and use it only for the purposes for which we disclose it to them.
  (ii) To a buyer or other successor - In the event of a merger, divestiture, restructuring, reorganization, dissolution or other sale or transfer of some or all of Company’s assets, whether as a going concern or as part of a proceeding, in which personal information held by us about our Website’s users is among the assets transferred.
  (iii) To fulfill the purpose for which you provide it.

We may also disclose your personal information:
  (i) To comply with any court order, law or legal process, including to respond to government or regulatory requests.
  (ii) To enforce or apply our terms of use and other agreements, including for billing and collection purposes.
  (iii) If we believe disclosure is necessary or appropriate to protect the rights, property, or safety of Company, our customers, or others.

We destroy the information we collect when the purpose for which it was provided has been fulfilled unless we are required to keep it longer by statute or official policy.  Electronically submitted information is maintained and destroyed according to the principles of the Federal Records Act and the regulations and records schedules approved by the National Archives and Records Administration, and in some cases information submitted to us may become an agency record and therefore might be subject to a Freedom of Information Act request.

Also, Company is not responsible for the privacy practices employed by non-Company sites that may link to the Company’s Website.

Data Security

We have implemented measures designed to secure your personal information from accidental loss and from unauthorized access, use, alteration and disclosure.  However, the safety and security of your information also depends on you.  Where we have given you (or where you have chosen) a password for access to certain parts of our Website, if applicable, you are responsible for keeping this password confidential.  We ask you not to share your password with anyone.  Unfortunately, the transmission of information via the Internet is not completely secure. Although we do our best to protect your personal information, we cannot guarantee the security of your personal information transmitted to our Website. Any transmission of personal information is at your own risk. We are not responsible for circumvention of any privacy settings or security measures contained on the Website.

For site security purposes and to ensure that this service remains available to all users, Company’s systems may employ software programs to monitor network traffic to identify unauthorized attempts to upload or change information, or otherwise cause damage. If such monitoring reveals evidence of possible abuse or criminal activity, such evidence may be provided to appropriate law enforcement officials.  Unauthorized attempts to upload or change information on this server are strictly prohibited and may be punishable under the Computer Fraud and Abuse Act of 1986 and the National Information Infrastructure Protection Act or other law.

Accessing and Correcting Your Information

If applicable, with respect to those portions of the Website where your personal information may be stored, you can review and change your personal information by logging into the Website and visiting your account profile page.  You may also send us an e-mail to request access to, correct or delete any personal information that you have provided to us. We cannot delete your personal information except by also deleting your user account. We may not accommodate a request to change information if we believe the change would violate any law or legal requirement or cause the information to be incorrect.  If you delete your user contributions from the Website, copies of your contributions may remain viewable in cached and archived pages, or might have been copied or stored by other users of the Website. 

Changes to Our Privacy Policy

It is our policy to post any changes we make to this Policy on this page.  If we make material changes to how we treat our users' personal information, we will notify you by e-mail to the e-mail address specified in your account or through a notice on the Website. The date this Policy was last revised is identified at the top of the page. You are responsible for ensuring we have an up-to-date active and deliverable e-mail address for you, and for periodically visiting our Website and this privacy policy to check for any changes.
