net4sec UG ("net4sec") is committed to
protecting the privacy of personal information you may provide to us when using
any of our online services. This Privacy Policy describes how we treat
information we receive when you transmit data to net4sec.
When
you purchase, download trial or evaluation versions, or register net4sec
software or services, we may collect personal information including your name,
address, email address, etc. for the purpose of recording the transaction when
you engage in activities on our web site or within the net4sec software or
services. When we use a payment processing merchant we ensure that the same
strict privacy criteria are in place. We do not (knowingly) collect personal
information from persons under the age of eighteen. We also give users the
option of receiving useful product information (such as updates, pest alerts
and associated product offerings), via opt-in permission based email. We fully
ensure your privacy and value your trust. We will never sell, rent, lease or
trade your personal information to any third party. Likewise, your information
will not be shared with a third party in any other way unless net4sec is
required to do so by law. net4sec may engage the services of a third party
from time to time and may provide certain information that includes personal
information in order for the third party to perform such services. Any third
parties who provide services to net4sec have agreed not to disclose your
information or use it for any other purpose, and are required to implement or
adopt a Privacy Policy that is no less stringent than net4sec's Privacy
Policy. You may opt out of receiving emails from us at any time by clicking the
unsubscribe link in the email. By choosing to enter and submit the requested
information when prompted, you are consenting to net4sec's collection, use,
and disclosure of such information for the purposes as outlined herein.
Any
information that you post to a chat room, public bulletin or forum is available
to all users of that site. net4sec cannot control, nor is it responsible for
the use, disclosure, or dissemination of such information by any third parties.
We
may automatically collect IP addresses and Web site usage information when you
access our online services. This information helps us evaluate how our visitors
navigate our sites on an aggregate basis, including but not limited to the
number and frequency of visitors, length of visits, etc.
We
may use information collected in the following ways:
§
To process, validate and verify
purchases.

To contact you to reconfirm or
verify accuracy of information provided.

We
may disclose and use personally identifiable information in special
circumstances where it is necessary to enforce our service agreements or terms
of use (for example protect our intellectual property rights), and your
compliance with the applicable End User License Agreement(s) contained within
the net4sec software or services. We may also disclose or use your personal
information when we, in good faith, believe that the applicable law may require
us to do so.
We
define a cookie as any string of data and information that is automatically
stored on your computer upon access to our services. net4sec employs cookies
to assign temporary identification numbers to machines that access our
services. This information enables us to deliver faster service capabilities to
our customers or to our affiliates and/or other sales partners, prevent denial
of service attacks on our systems, detect and prevent fraudulent transactions,
and assist with awarding proper sales credit to our partners. All net4sec
cookies are 1) of limited duration, 2) less than 5KB in length, 3) only visible
to net4sec, and 4) devoid of any personally identifiable information. Our
Cookies are mainly maintained to track our affiliates and/or other sales
partners to ensure proper payments for their sales and tracking activities
relating to their affiliate relationship with us.
We
may offer links from our website to other third party websites which may be
hosted by our co-branding partners or by unrelated companies which we think may
be of interest to you. Such websites are not governed by this privacy policy
and net4sec makes no representation as to their practices for dealing with
your personal information. We recommend that you check the privacy policy of
any website at the beginning of your visit.
The
personally identifiable information we collect about you is stored in limited
access servers. We maintain such safeguards to protect security of servers and
your personally identifiable information. We retain personally identifiable
information only as long as necessary to complete a purchase, provide customer
service, or maintain your account with us.
We
may change this Privacy Policy at any time without notice to you in order to
reflect our practices and provide greater protection for your information. Any
changes to this Privacy Policy will be posted promptly here, so please check
back periodically.
By
using the net4sec services, accessing the net4sec web site, or purchasing net4sec
products you are consenting to the practices relating to information collection
and use that are described in this Privacy Policy.
