eGismos Privacy Statement
eGismos Corporation Privacy Statement
eGismos is committed to protecting your privacy, so you can visit most pages
on our site without providing information about yourself. However, sometimes
we need information to provide services that you request, and this privacy statement
explains data collection in those situations.
Collection of your personal information
Generally, we request personal information when you are entering a contest,
ordering e-mail newsletters, signing up for an event or training, or purchasing
products.
Personal information is usually limited to name, e-mail address, and phone
number, unless other information is needed to provide the service you requested.
eGismos also collects information about your computer hardware and software,
including your IP address, browser types, operating system, domain name, access
times and Web site addresses. We use this information to maintain the quality
of our Web site, and to obtain general statistics regarding its use.
eGismos also collects information about which pages customers visit. Only
a unique ID number identifies this site visitation data, and it is never linked
with personal information.
Use of your personal information
We use your personal information for the following purposes:
To ensure our site is relevant to your needs.
To make the site easier to use by eliminating the need to enter information
more than once.
To complete online purchases.
To deliver newsletters, product literature, news of events, training schedules,
software updates, etc.
We merge site-visitation data with anonymous demographic information for research
purposes, and may use this information to provide more relevant content.
Unless otherwise stated on the Site, we will share your personal information
only with associated financial institutions, in order to verify credit information
for an online purchase or to establish an account.
eGismos will disclose your personal information only in special cases, such
as: (i) to comply with valid legal requirements, such as a law, regulation,
search warrant, subpoena or court order; or (ii) when eGismos believes that
disclosing this information is necessary to identify, contact or bring legal
action against someone who, intentionally or unintentionally, may be causing
injury or harm to eGismos users or other persons, or may be violating the Terms
and Conditions of Use for this site.
If you do not want eGismos to communicate with you about other eGismos products,
programs, events or services, by e-mail, postal mail, or telephone, you can
select the "Do not wish to receive marketing messages from eGismos"
option when prompted.
Your personal information may be stored and processed in the United States
or any other country in which eGismos or its affiliates, subsidiaries or agents
maintain facilities. By using this site, you consent to any such transfer of
information outside of your country. eGismos abides by the safe harbor framework
as set forth by the U.S. Department of Commerce, regarding the collection, use
and retention of data from the European Union.
Security of your personal information
eGismos is committed to protecting your personal information. We use various
security technologies to protect your personal information from unauthorized
access, use or disclosure. When we transmit sensitive information (such as a
credit card number) over the Internet, we use encryption, such as the Secure
Socket Layer (SSL) protocol.
Non-personally identifiable information
Internet Protocol (IP) Address
A unique number, called an Internet Protocol (IP) address, identifies every
computer on the Internet. Each time you connect to the Internet, your machine
is assigned an IP address. We use your IP address to help diagnose problems
with our Site, to more efficiently administer the Site, and to better tailor
it to your needs.
Cookies
When you enter our Site, we create your profile, assign you a personal identification
number, and then send this personal identification number back to your hard
drive in the form of a "cookie."
This cookie is a very small bit of code (a few kilobytes) that contains no
personal information. But, this code is uniquely yours and allows you to navigate
our Site without having to fill out registration forms with information you
have already provided (as long as you are using the same computer from which
you initially supplied the information).
Other cookies, written as you navigate our Site, allow us to remember what
is in your on-line shopping cart and provide you with the proper pricing for
your location (U.S, Europe, Asia, etc.).
If you are interrupted before finalizing an on-line purchase, the contents
of your order will be preserved for up to two weeks.
Should you delete these cookies, you would simply provide your contact information
again, but would "lose" the contents of your shopping cart.
Should you decide to set your browser to reject cookies, you can still browse
the Site, but on-line ordering and item prices will not be available.
We do not sell customer lists or "cookie swap" with other companies.
Changes to this statement
eGismos Corporation will occasionally update this privacy statement. When we do,
we will revise the "last updated" date on this page. For material
changes to this statement, eGismos Corporation will notify you by placing prominent
notice on the Web site.
