Privacy
Policy
At Acquasys, the privacy of our customers is important to us. We are committed
to protecting the information we gather from you on any of the Acquasys sites.
We have created this privacy policy in order to demonstrate our company's
commitment to privacy. The following discloses the information gathering
and dissemination practices for our Web site and our company. If you have
questions about Acquasys' privacy policy or if you feel that we are not abiding
to the terms of this privacy policy, please contact us.
Information Collection and Use
Acquasys may collect information from users at several different points on its
Web site and it is the sole owner of any information collected on this site.
We do not sell, share, or rent this information to others in ways different from
what is disclosed in this statement. Acquasys Web site contains links to other
sites. Acquasys is not responsible for the privacy practices or the content of
Web sites that link to or from Acquasys.
Registration and Contact Forms
In order to use some of our services, users may have to complete forms on our
site. These forms may require users to supply their contact information (e.g.,
name and address). In such cases, we will use this contact information to repond
to users about the services for which they have inquired or to notify them of
special offers. It is optional for users to provide certain information (such
as organizational information), but we encourage users to provide this information
so that we can provide a more personalized experience on our web site.
Cookies
A cookie is a piece of data stored on the user's hard drive containing information
about the user. Acquasys may use cookies to store visitors preferences, record
session information, such as items that consumers add to their shopping cart,
what pages users access or visit, and record past activity in order to provide
better service when returning to our site.
Acquasys does not require users to accept cookies in order to enter or view the
site. However, if you reject cookies, you may not be able to access some parts
of our site. You can set your browser to reject cookies, or to notify you when
Acquasys or another company sends you a cookie. If you have questions about how
to change your browser's "cookie" settings, please contact the software
manufacturer.
Log Files
We use your IP (Internet Provider) address to help diagnose problems with our
server, and to administer our Web site. Your IP address is used to help identify
you and your preferences. We use IP addresses to analyze trends and gather broad
demographic information for aggregate use. IP addresses are not linked to personally
identifiable information.
Data Sharing
We do not give out, sell or rent visitors addresses, credit or debit card information
except where needed to deliver a product or service that a visitor has ordered
or to comply with valid legal process or in special cases. We may occasionally
share aggregated user demographic information with our partners and advertisers.
This is not linked to any personal information that can identify an individual
person.
Links To Other Web Sites
This Web site may contain links to other sites. Please be aware that Acquasys
is not responsible for the privacy practices of sites which link to or from Acquasys.
We encourage our users to read the privacy statements of every web site they
visit that collects personally identifiable information.
Surveys & Contests
From time-to-time Acquasys may request information from visitors via surveys
or contests. Participation in these surveys or contests is voluntary. Information
requested may include contact information (such as name and shipping address),
and demographic information (such as zip code and age). This contact information
will be used to notify the winners and award prizes. Survey information will
be used to make improvements to our Web site. This information may also be shared
with advertisers on an aggregate basis (no individual demographic information
will be supplied to advertisers).
Product Registrations
Acquasys products do not normally collect any personal information from your
system. However, since certain products may require registration before they
are fully activated, this information may be passed from the product to our web
site for verification. This information is used only to verify that the product
has been legally purchased and registered, and is treated in full accordance
with this Privacy Policy. The information that may be submitted includes the
following:
- The unique identification code assigned to the product by Acquasys.
- The registration name provided by the end user to Acquasys when the product
was purchased and/or registered.
- The registration code provided by Acquasys to the end user when the product
was purchased and/or registered.
Security
Acquasys has security measures in place to protect the loss, misuse and alteration
of the information under our control. Acquasys takes every precaution to protect
our visitors' information. We also take precautions to protect visitor information
off-line. All of our visitor's information, not just the sensitive information
mentioned above, is restricted in our offices. Only authorized employees who
need the information to perform a specific job (for example, our billing clerk
or a customer service representative) are granted access to personally identifiable
information.
Correspondence With Users
From time to time, we may send Web site and service announcement updates that
contain important information about the services on our Web site. In addition,
our Customer Service Department may, as the individual situation warrants, communicate
with users via telephone or email to provide them with services they have requested
or to follow-up on issues relating to their account.
We do not sell, rent or otherwise provide our registered users email addresses
to third parties. However we occasionally send e-mail messages to our registered
visitors informing them of our new products, services, or special services. Users
who do not wish to receive this correspondence should send an email specifying
their request along with their name, email, and address to: contact@acquasys.com.
Public Forums/Email Communication
This site makes use of message boards and news groups. Please remember that any
information that is disclosed in these areas becomes public information and users
should exercise caution when disclosing personal information. Acquasys does not
monitor the online communication (including email) which take place on our site
except to comply with valid legal process, to protect the rights or property
of Acquasys, or for emergencies.
Note To Parents
At Acquasys we are aware that many children may want to visit us on the internet.
Although we welcome browsing, we encourage children to receive permission from
their parents before submitting any personal information over the internet. Acquasys
believes parents should be responsible for supervising the online activities
of their children and taking into account various tools that allow them to provide
their children with a controlled, child-friendly internet. These tools are designed
to preclude children from releasing personal information online without the permission
of their parents.
Notification of Changes to This Privacy Policy
Our privacy policy is posted in the Contact section of our site. If at any point
we decide to use personally identifiable information in a manner different from
that stated at the time it was collected, we will update our privacy policy and
notify our registered users via email.
