Privacy Policy |
|
Introduction |
At CMSI, we respect your privacy. We want to maintain your confidence in our handling
of any data and information that is collected during your visit to our web site. We have
developed and provided this Privacy Policy to inform you of our practices and policies
regarding the collection, use, maintenance, and disclosure of your personal data and
information. |
We are committed to providing you with adequate information so you can make an
informed decision whether to visit our web site and whether you wish to voluntarily
provide any personal data or information, e.g., your name, e-mail address, telephone
number, etc. Our Privacy Policy is described in the following sections. |
|
Cookies |
"Cookies" are small data files that are written to and stored on your hard drive when you
visit a web site. They do not read files on your hard drive. |
Like most web sites, we use cookies to personalize a user's experience of our web site
and to make it easier for users to complete forms. Our cookies do not track user
movement once you leave our web site, except for noting your destination address.
Most web browsers allow the user to be notified upon the proposed installation of a
cookie and the user can then decline the cookie. Even if you decline the cookie, you may
continue to use our entire web site. |
We use data and information received from our cookies for marketing purposes and to
improve our on-line offering of services and products. We may also do so to evaluate our
site's technical capacity and to review the navigational structure of our site, e.g., to revise
or restructure our web site for easier and more intuitive movement throughout.
Currently, the data and information we collect with cookies is only reviewed in an
aggregated form, which is not personally identifiable. In the future, however, we may
correlate the data and information received from cookies with personally identifiable
information, to identify specific users and track their web site usage. This personally
identifiable information will be limited to contact information, such as the user's name,
address, phone number, fax number, and e-mail address. Our use of this combined
information will continue to be solely for the purposes stated above with respect to
information collected through cookies. |
Whether or not the data and information received from cookies is correlated to any
specific user, we do not, and will not, disclose, sell, rent or share any data or information
derived from cookies with any third parties other than to CMSI's affiliated companies
("Affiliates"), except for personally identifiable information saved in cookies when you
register for or enroll in a program or service as we disclose in accordance with our policy
for Voluntarily Provided Information set forth below, or as otherwise stated in this
Privacy Policy. |
|
Log Files |
We also review data and information contained in log files located on our web server,
which record the date and time of each visit to our web site, the user's IP (internet
protocol) address, the referring IP address or domain (the prior web site visited), and the
files viewed on our web site (including HTML pages, graphics, etc.). We use log file
information to analyze data in the aggregate to determine the trends and usage of our site.
We can not correlate the log data to identify specific users. |
We do not, and will not, disclose, sell, rent or share any information derived from log
files with any third parties other than to Affiliates, or as otherwise stated in this Privacy
Policy. |
|
Voluntarily Provided Information |
If you register for or enroll in a program or service through our web site, make purchases
from our on-line offerings, respond to a request for information or make any other on-line
request of us, you will be voluntarily providing personally identifiable information. If you
do not agree with this Privacy Policy, we ask that you please do not provide the requested
information. You may nevertheless continue to use most of our web site, subject,
however, to the collection of information through cookies and log files as discussed
above. If you have previously provided personally identifiable information by registration
through our web site, you may request to be removed from our active database of mailing
lists (see the discussion below). |
Voluntarily provided information is used to send you announcements of new products,
updates, and promotional information, as well as to provide the services or goods that you
request and give you better customer service. We share personally identifiable
information with our Affiliates, as well as with our third-party business partners, sales
representatives and distributors (collectively, "Partners") who may provide the requested
goods or services to you directly or otherwise contact you directly. Moreover, we rely on
various third-party service companies ("Service Companies") to provide certain services
(e.g., shipping, credit card billing) for which it is necessary to provide users' personally
identifiable information. |
We do not, and will not, disclose, sell, rent or share any personally identifiable
information received as a result of enrollment, registrations or e-commerce transactions
on our web site with any third parties, other than our Affiliates, Partners, Service
Companies, or as otherwise stated in this Privacy Policy. |
Please note that although we may seek to require that Affiliates, Partners, and Service
Companies use information regarding our users only in the ways permitted by this
Privacy Policy, we do not control and are not responsible for their privacy practices, or
those of any other party. |
|
Collection of Data & Information by Our ISP |
Our Internet Service Provider (ISP) also collects certain information about your visit. It is
the same information contained in a log file that we collect and analyze, i.e., the date and
time of the visit, the user's IP (internet protocol) address, the referring IP address or
domain, and the files viewed on our web site (including HTML pages, graphics, etc.). In
addition, our ISP has access to back-up files containing the personally identifiable
information that you voluntarily provide (even if your input fails). The ISP does not
disclose, share, release, publish, disseminate, rent, or sell any personally identifiable
information to any third parties, but does use the log files to analyze data in an aggregate
form, which is not personally identifiable information. |
|
Links to Third-Party Web Sites |
Through our web pages, you may connect to third parties' web sites via hyperlinks, and
the connections may or may not be obvious. We are not responsible for the collection,
use, maintenance, sharing, or disclosure of data and information by such third parties. We
encourage our users to be aware of the varied privacy policies of web sites that they visit. |
|
Correspondence |
We maintain and review e-mail correspondence that you send to us. We will use (and
maintain in a file specific to you) the personally identifiable information disclosed in the
e-mail. Because such correspondence contains information that is not transmitted through
the operation of our web site, it is not subject to the terms of this Privacy Policy. |
|
Required Disclosures of Data & Information |
In addition to disclosures to our Affiliates, Partners, and Service Companies, and
regardless of anything in this Privacy Policy to the contrary, we may disclose personally
identifiable information, with or without prior notice to you, when we believe that the law
requires it, in response to subpoenas or at the demand of governmental agencies, to
protect our systems or business, to protect other visitors to the web site, or to respond to
an emergency. If you partake, or we reasonably suspect you of partaking in any illegal
activity we may also disclose your personally identifiable information, even without a
subpoena, warrant or court order. We may also make disclosures of your personally
identifiable information with your affirmative consent. |
|
Maintenance & Transmission of Data & Information |
Although we use reasonable efforts to maintain the privacy of your personally
identifiable data and information, due to technological limitations, and the risk of
unlawful interceptions and accessing of transmissions and/or data, we cannot completely
assure you, and you should not expect, that your personally identifiable data and
information, and any other electronically communicated information, will be absolutely
confidential. |
For all e-commerce transactions, we use industry-standard commercial encryption
technology to protect the data and information that you transmit to us via our web site.
Although this technology is not flawless, we believe that it provides reasonable
protection for your data and information. We will endeavor to update our protective
devices as encryption technology develops further. |
Once received, personally identifiable information is protected from outside CMSI by
"firewalls,". We also seek to require our Affiliates, Partners and Service Companies to
exercise reasonable efforts to maintain the confidentiality of your information. |
|
Your Right to Review & Modify Data & Information |
You have the right, at any time, to review and/or modify any of your personally
identifiable information that you provide during registration, or any other voluntarily
provided information. You may also remove yourself from our active databases of e-mail
lists. To do so, you should send an e-mail to privacy@cmsimgmt.com requesting that (a)
we provide a copy of your profile of personally identifiable information, (b) we update or
modify certain personally identifiable information, or (c) you be removed from our
databases of active e-mail lists. We will endeavor to comply with your request as soon as
reasonably possible. To protect your confidentiality, we can only send a requested profile
to the e-mail address listed in the profile. In any event, our back-up files will maintain
copies of your personally identifiable information. We reserve the right to contact former
customers or users of the web site from time to time. |
|
Users Under 13 |
This web site is not directed at children under the age of 13. If you are younger than 13,
please do not provide any personally identifiable information in connection with your use
of the web site. |
|
Assignment |
We reserve the right to transfer any and all information that we collect from our visitors
to a third party in the event that we sell or transfer substantially all of our assets related to
the web site to such third party. |
|
Changes to this Privacy Policy |
Due to changing technological and marketing demands, we must reserve the right to
change our policies regarding the privacy of your personally identifiable information in
the future. If that happens, we will endeavor to promptly update this Privacy Policy. We
may also attempt to provide a message to our customers whose e-mail addresses we have,
in conformity with this Privacy Policy, advising of any such change(s). Your continued
use of the web site following changes to this policy will indicate that you accept the
changes. For ease of your review of any changes, the following is a list of the date of all
revisions to this Privacy Policy: |
