PRIVACY POLICY Web Site Data Collection Practices A visitor to SMYTH's web sites are not asked to reveal any individually identifiable information. We collect some information about visitors indirectly through standard web logs, including IP address, browser, and the domain name from which a visitor entered the site. We do not normally seek to identify individuals unless we believe that someone is using our site improperly. Customers come to our web site with IDs and passwords already assigned. Other users who register at our web site provide contact information. We may also collect a credit card number from those who buy services through the website. We sometimes use Internet "cookies" to store login or other information on your computer to simplify your access and to tailor services to your interests. If information (for example, accounts receivable or trade payment references) is contributed to the Smyth Industry Trade System™, that information then becomes an anonymous but integral part of the SMYTH Industry Trade System database, which may be retained and used by us without restriction, and which will be accessed by other customers. Use and Disclosure - We may share information provided by our visitors and customers with service providers we have retained to perform services on our behalf. These service providers are contractually restricted from using or disclosing the information except as necessary to perform services on our behalf or to comply with legal requirements. In addition, we may disclose information about you (i) if we are required to do so by law or legal process, (ii) to law enforcement authorities or other government officials, or (iii) when we believe disclosure is necessary or appropriate to prevent physical harm or financial loss or in connection with an investigation of suspected or actual illegal activity. We reserve the right to transfer any data you have contributed to our Industry Trade System or information we have about you in the event we sell or transfer all or a portion of our business or assets. Should such a sale or transfer occur, we will use reasonable efforts to direct the transferee to use personal information you have provided through this Web site in a manner that is consistent with this Privacy Statement. We may share your name, address, and information about your transactions and experiences with us (such as your payment history or other facts about your account) with our affiliates. We may also share other personal data that you provide with our affiliates in order to provide you with information about products or services that may interest you. Links to other Sites- We provide links to other Web sites for your convenience and information. These sites may have their own privacy statements in place, which we recommend you review if you visit any linked Web sites. We are not responsible for the content of linked sites or any use of the sites. How We Protect Personal Information. We maintain administrative, technical and physical safeguards to protect against unauthorized disclosure, use, alteration or destruction of the personal information you provide on this Web site. We use secure socket layer (SSL) technology where we feel appropriate to help keep our data and your information secure. Corrections- Users may contact info@smythsolutions.com to change an Internet registration record, opt out of receiving email updates about SMYTH products and services, or to be removed from the SMYTH database. Updates - This Privacy Statement may be updated periodically and without prior notice to you to reflect changes in our online information practices. For questions regarding SMYTH data protection practices, please contact us. We will do our best to resolve any problems as quickly as possible. |
