We respect privacy

TCPWave Global Privacy and Data Protection Web Site Policy Statement

TCPWave recognizes that our employees, and the individuals who represent companies with whom we conduct business, value their privacy. However, in order to conduct a global business in this increasingly electronic economy, the collection of the personal data of individuals is often necessary. We respect your right to privacy and are committed to protecting your personal data. It is our goal to balance the benefits of e-commerce with your right, as an individual, to prevent the misuse of your personal data.

What Is Personal Data
Personal data means any information that, when used alone or combined with other data, may be used to identify an individual. This includes, but is not limited to, an individual’s first and last name, e-mail address, mailing and/or residential addresses, telephone number, title, birth date, gender, occupation, customer contact information and/or other personal information that may be required in order for us to provide a service you request, or may have requested, at our web sites.

Compliance With Laws
TCPWave strives to comply with all applicable and known laws around the world that are designed to protect your right to privacy and prevent misuse of your personal data. Although legal requirements may vary from country to country, we intend to adhere to the principles set forth in this Global Privacy and Data Protection Web Site Policy Statement even if we transfer your personal data from your country of residence to countries that may not provide the same privacy rights or require the same level of protection for your personal data. Our commitment is to protect your personal data no matter where it is collected, transported, processed or retained.

Web Sites Covered by Our Privacy Statement
This TCPWave Global Privacy and Data Protection Web Site Policy Statement applies to all web sites and domains of TCPWave (www.TCPWave.com). TCPWave web sites may provide links to unaffiliated third-party web sites for your convenience and information; however, TCPWave does not control those unaffiliated third-party web sites or (except where TCPWave is providing your personal data to a third party with whom TCPWave has contracted for services) their privacy policies or practices as they relate to the use and protection of your personal data. You may visit those third-party links at your sole discretion and should read their privacy policies and statements before providing them your personal data.

Collecting Your Personal Data
You will be able to browse our web sites anonymously unless you have previously indicated that you wish TCPWave to remember your login identification and/or password. In some circumstances, we may request you to provide personal data. Your response to such a request is strictly voluntary. TCPWave uses this personal data to customize your experience on our web sites. We also may use your personal data for other business purposes, such as alerting you to products and services that can assist you in your business, promoting site registration, order processing and online customer service.

When you visit certain TCPWave web pages, you may need to be registered and create a password in order to log in. The use of those web pages, and the downloadable information on such web pages, may be governed by a written agreement between you, or your employer, and TCPWave. Unless you request your personal data to be deleted, it may be retained by TCPWave, pursuant to applicable laws, to: (i) verify compliance with the agreement, (ii) track software and documents you download; or (iii) track page visits and usage of other applications available on the TCPWave web sites.

We also may receive your personal data from our business partners and suppliers. We intend to use such personal data only if it has been collected in accordance with acceptable privacy practices consistent with the TCPWave Global Privacy and Data Protection Policies as well as applicable laws.

In general, you can visit our web sites without divulging any personal data. However, there are areas of our web sites that require us to collect personal data to complete the customization functions for which they are designed that may not be available to those individuals who elect not to provide the personal data requested. You are always welcome to visit the public portion of the TCPWave web sites without revealing any personal data.

Use of Your Personal Data
When we collect your personal data from you, we will inform you at the time as to the reason we are requesting such personal data. The personal data will be used only for TCPWave business purposes such as: (i) responding to your requests for products, documentation and/or services; (ii) processing your order or invoice; (iii) conducting a commercial transaction; (iv) corresponding with you and/or your company; (v) enabling your subscription or event registration; (vi) handling a job application; (vii) sending direct marketing information; and/or (viii) performing market research. We will also use your personal data to personalize the content you review and to better understand how you use the web sites in order to improve the services TCPWave provides as well as the web site information.

Upon your acceptance of the Terms of Use, which this CPWave Global Privacy and Data Protection Web Site Policy Statement is a part, such an acceptance will include your permission to us to collect and use your personal data. However, you have the right to request TCPWave not to contact you for the purposes of sending you newsletters, customer surveys, direct marketing materials and/or market research information. You can exercise this right by clicking on the appropriate option or checkbox at the point where the personal data is collected or by editing your personal data we have collected.

In specific cases, TCPWave may request your direct consent to use your personal data by providing an “opt-in” and/or “opt-out” checkbox in information fields before your personal data can be used for any additional purposes to that for which your consent has been or is given.

Disclosure of Your Personal Data to Third Parties
If you elect to provide us with personal data, we may transfer that personal data within the TCPWave entities or to TCPWave affiliated third parties or business partners. Your personal data may be transferred within your country and/or across borders from your country of residence or jurisdiction to TCPWave entities, affiliated third parties and/or business partners in other countries around the world so that such TCPWave entities, affiliated third parties and/or business partners may provide services and other operations required to transact business with you. Such personal data may include, but is not limited to, account information, credit card information and ordering/invoicing information.

In addition, TCPWave may share your personal data (with the exception of account, credit card, and ordering information) with other TCPWave business partners who may desire to alert you to new products and services to improve your competitive edge, and only in cases where we believe your business interests will be served. TCPWave will share your personal data with its business partners only if you have provided us with your consent to do so. If you do not want to receive marketing materials from any of our business partners, please do not provide contact information via the Internet, or let them know directly that you wish to be removed from their contact list.

TCPWave works with certain companies that deliver TCPWave advertising and undertake surveys on behalf of TCPWave. These companies may collect information to help us determine which products, services and offerings are of most interest to our current and future customers. Unless you have given your consent, implicitly or explicitly, the information collected is not identifiable at an individual level. However, it may be identifiable at a company level, with or without your consent, or aggregated at an anonymous level to provide us with general statistics and trends.

In the event that TCPWave sells a part or parts of its business, the personal data that we have collected could be transferred to the acquiring company unless you instruct TCPWave not to do so in writing.

TCPWave reserves the right to share your personal data to respond to information requests by duly authorized governmental authorities and subject to applicable laws. In exceptionally rare circumstances, where national, state or company security is at issue (such as with the World Trade Center terrorist act in September 2001), TCPWave reserves the right to share our entire database of employees, visitors, vendors and customers with the appropriate governmental authorities duly authorized by applicable laws.

Collecting Your Domain Information

Securing Your Information
