WHAT INFORMATION DO WE COLLECT?
When you visit the ImpactWebSystems.net website, ImpactWebSystems.net may collect from you, through voluntary dialogs, automated monitoring processes and the review of website server log files, information about you. ImpactWebSystems.net refers to this information collectively for all of its users as "User Information". As discussed in more detail below, User Information can take two forms: (1) "Personally Identifiable Information" which is information about a user from which a user's identity can be determined; and (2) "Non-Personally Identifiable Information" which is information about a user from which a user's identity cannot be determined. In some instances, ImpactWebSystems.net receives User Information from its business partners. In such instances, ImpactWebSystems.net treats such User Information as if it was directly collected or entered on the ImpactWebSystems.net website.
Personally Identifiable Information
We do not, through the ImpactWebSystems.net website, collect Personally Identifiable Information about you without your knowledge and voluntary action. Your Personally Identifiable Information is collected mainly through the optional user registration process for the ImpactWebSystems.net website. The information collected through the registration process includes username, name (first and last), company name, company address, phone number, fax number and e-mail address. ImpactWebSystems.net does not control the acts of its users. You should be aware that if you disclose any User Information on a bulletin board or in a chat room, guest book or other open forum that is hosted by ImpactWebSystems.net, others may collect that information and use it to send you unsolicited e-mail from outside ImpactWebSystems.net, or for other purposes. In addition, the ImpactWebSystems.net website provides its registered users with the ability to develop custom surveys/polls which are hosted through ImpactWebSystems.net. Any User Information you provide in response to any surveys/polls other than those developed by ImpactWebSystems.net will be provided to the developer of such survey/poll without being subject to this Privacy Statement. Where ImpactWebSystems.net is the developer of a survey/poll the User Information you provide in response to such survey/poll will be subject to this Privacy Statement. In the event that you encounter any ImpactWebSystems.net user who is improperly collecting or using information about you or other users, please contact us at the following email address: info@ImpactWebSystems.net
.
Non-Personally Identifiable Information
Non-Personally Identifiable Information includes, but is not limited to, information we automatically collect on your use and/or actions on our website (e.g., user traffic patterns, page views on the website, click-through rates, search terms that users enter into our search utility). In addition, when a visitor arrives at our site, we collect the IP address, operating system and browser software used. An IP address (which is not the same as an e-mail address) can tell us the user's internet service provider and, based on that, can suggest the geographic location of the connection. ImpactWebSystems.net recognizes that certain User Information of a key demographic nature (e.g., race, age, gender, national origin, income), while Non-Personally Identifiable Information, is still of a sensitive nature to users. As a general matter, ImpactWebSystems.net does not collect such information about you through the ImpactWebSystems.net website. However, in recognition of the sensitive nature of such information, in the event ImpactWebSystems.net comes into possession of such information, whether through your voluntary submission of such information or in response to a special feature on the ImpactWebSystems.net website or by receiving such information from any of our business partners, such information shall, when coupled with any of your Personally Identifiable Information, itself be deemed to be Personally Identifiable Information and treated by ImpactWebSystems.net as such.
