1. Collection of Personal Information from Users of our Site.

Information You Actively Submit. We collect any personal data that you actively submit to us when you use interactive features of our Site. For example, if you complete a Contact Us form, we may collect your salutation, name, email address, country, telephone number, company, title, and any comments or queries you choose to submit. In each such instance, you will know what personal information we collect, because you actively submit it. We endeavor to clearly label which information is required and which information is optional in all cases. If you are unable or choose not to provide us with the personal information we reasonably require, we may be unable to provide you with the information you have requested.

Information Passively Submitted. When you use our Site, we may also passively track information about your computer, device or Internet connection, such as the IP address of your computer and/or Internet service provider, the date and time you access our Site, the Internet address of websites from which you come to our Site, the type of device you are using to access the Site, the Web browser and operating system you are using, and your movements and interactions on our Site. This data is generated and collected automatically, as part of the standard operation of the Site. Unless you also actively submit personal information to us, any information that is passively submitted typically does not allow us to identify you personally.

Cookies and Web Beacons. We may place cookies on users’ computers. Cookies can save data about individual users, such as the user's name, password, username, screen preferences, and the pages of a site viewed by the user. When the user revisits the website, we may recognize the user based on any cookies placed on their computer and customize the user's experience accordingly. For more information about our use of cookies, please see our Cookie Policy.

We may also use web beacons to track who has opened our e-mails (which you may receive if you request information from us using the Site). Web beacons are tiny graphic image files embedded in a website page that notify the home server (which can belong to the host website, a network advertiser, or some other third party) on a non-personally identifiable basis that some interaction has taken place. This notice may also result in a cookie being set on your device, as described above.

2. Use of Personal Data Collected.

We use personal information that we collect about you through our Site to respond appropriately to any inquiries you submit, provide you with, and maintain, secure and improve our Site, perform any contract between you and us, and comply with any legal obligations that apply to us. We also perform statistical analyses of the users of our Site to improve the content, design and navigation of the Site. In these cases, we use aggregate or statistical data that cannot reasonably be used to identify you.

3. Sharing of Information.

We do not share your personal information with others, except in the following circumstances and in accordance with applicable law:

• With your consent;
• To our agents and service providers, who act on our behalf and under confidentiality agreements to deliver services, provide IT support, and help us fulfill the other purposes set forth above;
• To our affiliates and partners under confidentiality agreements who work with us to improve our and their services and business practices;
• As required by applicable law, including, without limitation, in response to any government or regulatory agency request, to cooperate with law enforcement investigations, or upon receipt of any court order; and
• To courts and public authorities to protect you, us, or third parties from harm, such as fraud.

4. Security Measures.

We take steps to protect personal information submitted via our Site and have implemented technical and administrative security features to help prevent the unauthorized release of or access to personal information we receive. Please note, however, that while we have endeavored to create a secure and reliable Site for users, the confidentiality or accuracy of any communication or material transmitted to/from us over the Internet cannot be guaranteed. You are responsible for the security of information that you transmit via the Internet.
