We and our subsidiaries respect the privacy of our customers, business partners, and other visitors to our website who may choose to provide personal information. We recognize the need for appropriate protections and management of personal information that you provide to us. This Privacy Policy describes the types of information we may collect, how that information may be used, and with whom the information may be shared.
We collect contact information from you when you register on our site, subscribe to our newsletter, register for an event, respond to a survey or fill out a form. When ordering or registering on our site, we may collect information such as your name, address, telephone number or email address, user IDs and passwords, billing and transaction information, credit card or other financial information, and contact preferences. Personal information collected online may be supplemented with information you provide to us through other services and sources such as trade shows or seminars, as well as other data collection methods. You may, however, visit our site anonymously. In this case, we do not collect personal information when you visit our site unless you choose to provide it to us. Please note however that certain services (including without limitation the support services) require you to provide personal information, and if you choose not to provide such information, such services shall not be available to you.
Yes. Cookies are small files that a site or its service provider transfers to your computer’s hard drive through your Web browser (if you allow cookies) that enable the sites or service providers’ systems to recognize your browser and capture and remember certain information.
We use cookies to compile aggregate data about site traffic and site interaction so that we can offer better site experiences and tools in the future. We may contract with third-party service providers to assist us in better understanding our site visitors. These service providers are not permitted to use the information collected on our behalf except to help us conduct and improve our business.
We do not sell, trade, or otherwise transfer to outside parties your personally identifiable information. This does not include trusted third parties who assist us in operating our site, conducting our business, or servicing you, so long as those parties agree to keep this information confidential. We may also release your information when we believe release is appropriate to comply with the law, enforce our site policies, or protect ours or others’ rights, property, or safety. However, non-personally identifiable visitor information may be provided to other parties for marketing, advertising, or other uses.
In accordance with applicable law, personal information collected on our site may be transferred, stored and processed in the United States or any other country in which we or our affiliates, subsidiaries or service providers maintain facilities, even if the level of data privacy required is less than that required by the European Union or under the U.S. Department of Commerce Safe Harbor framework. By entering your personal data, you consent to worldwide processing of your personal information.
We are committed to making reasonable efforts to secure the personal data you choose to provide us. To protect the privacy of any personal information you may have provided, we employ industry-standard physical and logical access controls that change in response to the changing regulatory and threat environments including Internet firewalls, network monitoring, and, where appropriate, Secure Socket Layer (SSL) or similarly encrypted browsers. If a password is used to help protect your accounts and personal information, it is your responsibility to keep your password confidential.
