Your Privacy
At SightSpeed, we recognize that when you choose to provide us with information about yourself, you trust us to act in a responsible manner. That's why we have put a policy in place to disclose to you how your personal information may be used. You may visit our public web site and browse without giving us any personally identifying information, however certain functions on the public web site, certain areas of the site requiring login, and other SightSpeed sites may require giving us information (for example, username, password, name, address, and the like). Please read on for more details about our privacy practices.
What information does SightSpeed collect? How does SightSpeed use it?
At times we may request that you voluntarily supply us with personal information. Generally this information is requested when you register for an online service or when you provide information in connection with an online transaction.
- When you order, we ask you for your name, e-mail address, shipping and billing addresses, telephone number, and credit card information.
- When we render technical support for you, we may gather information related to your reported problem, system configuration, and other related information.
- When you enter a contest or other promotional event, we may ask for your name, address, telephone number and
e-mail address so we can administer the contest and notify winners.
- If you choose to give us personal information via the Internet or otherwise that we or our business partners may
need – for example, to correspond with you, process a credit card order, deliver a product, or for the purposes set forth in the next paragraph, it is our intent to let you know how we will use such information. If you tell us that you do not wish to have this information used as a basis for further contact with you, we will respect your wishes.
- SightSpeed, the service providers for it, all vendors providing products or services through our web site, and partners with whom we work to promote SightSpeed use your personal information: to operate our web site and/or effect your transactions; to create and share reports about your transactions and usage among themselves; to provide you with information about products and services; and to perform credit fraud screening services for transactions between you and us and/or others. For purposes of this agreement, “partners” refers to those third-party vendors, suppliers, or independent contractors with whom we’ve entered into marketing or supply relationships.
- We may automatically track certain information based upon your behavior on our site. We use this information to do internal research on our users' demographics, interests, and behavior to better understand and serve you and our customers generally. This information may include the URL that you just came from (whether this URL is on our site or not), which URL you next go to (whether this URL is on our site or not), what browser you are using, and your IP address. We may share this information with our service providers, vendors, and the partners described above.
How does SightSpeed protect consumer information?
We take reasonable steps to protect the customer data we collect from unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, or destruction. Due to the existing regulatory environment, we cannot ensure that all of your private communications and other personally identifiable information will never be disclosed in ways not otherwise described in this Privacy Statement. By way of example (without limiting the foregoing), we may be forced to disclose information to the government or third parties under certain circumstances, third parties may unlawfully intercept or access transmissions or private communications, or users may abuse or misuse your information that they collect from our site. Therefore, although we use industry standard practices to protect your privacy, we do not promise, and you should not expect, that your personally identifiable information or private communications will always remain private.
What about "cookies"?
"Cookies" are small pieces of information that are stored by your browser on your computer's hard drive. Our cookies enable us to provide you with more personal service. Most web browsers automatically accept cookies, but you can usually change your browser to prevent that if you would rather not store the information for future use.
Will SightSpeed disclose the information it collects to outside parties?
SightSpeed may store and disclose personal information as allowed or required by applicable law, including making disclosures that are necessary or advisable to: (a) protect the rights, safety or property of users of our web site, the public, or SightSpeed or our web site suppliers; and (b) conform to legal or regulatory requirements.
SightSpeed may provide aggregate statistics about our customers, sales, traffic patterns, and related site information to third-party vendors and partners, but except for those partners whose networks we use or with whom users already have a preexisting relationship related to their use of SightSpeed services (such as broadband providers) these statistics will not include any personally identifying information.
