DENNIX PRIVACY STATEMENT
Last Updated: 11/1/2007
Dennix recognizes the importance of protecting the privacy of all information provided by users of our web sites, registrants for our events, recipients of our e-mail newsletters and all other customers of our products and services. We created this policy with a fundamental respect for our customers' right to privacy and to guide our relationships with our customers. This Privacy Statement discloses the privacy practices for all products and services owned by Dennix.
INFORMATION COLLECTION AND USE
Dennix collects
information from our website users, subscribers
and other customers. In this section of our
Privacy Statement, we describe the type of
information we collect and how we use it
to provide better services to our customers.
Registration and Ordering
When using some of our website tools and services users must first register. During registration, users are required to give their contact information (such as name, e-mail address, mailing address and phone number). For internal purposes, we use this information to communicate with users and provide requested services, and, for our website visitors, to provide a more personalized experience on our sites. We also may collect information about a user's professional responsibilities (such as job title, purchasing responsibilities, company information and professional certification). We use such information to improve our service, for marketing purposes and/or for industry reporting purposes.
For our services that require payment,
we also collect credit card information (such
as account name, number and expiration date),
which is used for our or our agent's billing
purposes only, and is not otherwise shared.
E-mail Newsletters
If users wish to subscribe to our e-mail newsletters, we ask for contact information (such as name, e-mail address and phone number) and information about the subscriber's professional interests and responsibilities. We use this information in the same manner as we use contact information in the registration and ordering process described above. Recipients of our newsletters can unsubscribe using the instructions listed at the end of the e-mail newsletter.
Communications with Us
We have features where our customers can submit information to us (such
as our feedback forms). Where such submissions
include requests for service, support
or information, we may forward them to our
agents, as needed, to best respond to the specific
request. In addition, we may retain e-mails
and other information sent to us for our
internal administrative purposes and to help
us to serve customers better.
Communications from Us:
Service Updates, Special Offers
In order to
best serve our customers, we may send updates
that contain important information about our
products and services. For example, we send
new members a welcoming message and verify
password and username for our password-protected
areas. We may also communicate with a customer
to provide requested services and for account-related
issues via e-mail, phone or regular mail.
In addition to such service and product-essential
messages, we offer our customers the option
to receive information about our company,
related products, services and special deals.
Automatic Data Collection
Our web sites, newsletters and, from time to time, certain other
products and services have features that automatically
collect information from customers, to deliver
content specific to customers' interests and
to honor their preferences. This information
assists us in creating products and services
that will serve the needs of our customers.
For example, we use "cookies," a piece of data stored on the user's hard drive
containing information about the user. Cookies benefit the user by requiring
login only once, thereby saving time while on our web site. If users reject the
cookies, they may be limited in the use of some areas of our web site.
For our internal purposes, we gather date, time, browser type, navigation history and IP address of all visitors to our web sites. We use this information for our internal security audit log, trend analysis and system administration, and to gather broad information about our user base.
We may combine information supplied by a customer at registration with web site usage data to learn more about users and their preferences in the content of the site. We may use this information to tailor services to your interests or to contact you about offers from our business associates which may be of interest to you. We do not disclose this information to third parties.
WITH WHOM YOUR INFORMATION IS SHARED
Dennix does not share personally identifiable information with anyone. All information gathered is used for our sole purposes as explained in this statement.
CORRECTION/UPDATING PERSONAL INFORMATION
If information which you have submitted to us changes or if you no longer desire our product(s)/service(s), we provide a way to correct or update your personal data: you may either contact Customer Support or use the methods provided in the members section after logging into the system.
SECURITY
Sensitive information that is transmitted to us online (such as credit card number) is encrypted and is transmitted to us securely. In addition, access to all of our customers' information, not just the sensitive information mentioned above, is restricted. Only employees who need the information to perform a specific job are granted access to personally identifiable information. Finally, the servers on which we store personally identifiable information are kept in a secure environment.
LINKS
Our web sites contain links to other sites. Dennix is not responsible
for the privacy practices or content of such
other sites. We encourage our users to be
aware when they leave our site and to read
the privacy statements of each web site to
which we may link that may collect personally
identifiable information.
NOTIFICATION and
CHANGES
If we change our Privacy Statement,
we will post those changes on this page so our users are
aware of what information we collect, how we
use it and under which circumstances, if any,
we disclose it. Users should check this policy
frequently to keep abreast of any changes.
