Non-personal information is information that cannot identify you. If you visit this website to read information, such as information about one of our services, we may collect certain non-personal information about you from your computer's web browser. Because non-personal information cannot identify you or be tied to you in any way, there are no restrictions on how we can use or share non-personal information. What is personal information and how is it collected? Personal information is information that identifies you as an individual, such as your name, mailing address, email address, telephone number, and fax number. We may collect personal information from you in a variety of ways: • When you submit an application or other form to us • When you complete a transaction with us, our subsidiaries, or others • When we collect information about you in support of a transaction, such as credit card information • In certain areas of this website, you have the opportunity to submit personal information about yourself, choose to receive specific information, purchase access to one of our products or services, or participate in an activity.

DO COOKIES OR OTHER TECHNOLOGIES COLLECT PERSONAL INFORMATION?

Yes, we may use cookies and related technologies, such as web beacons, to collect information on our website. A cookie is a text file placed on your hard drive by a web page server. Cookies cannot be used to run programs or deliver viruses to your computer. Cookies are uniquely assigned to you and can only be read by a web server on the domain that issued the cookie to you. One of the primary purposes of cookies is to provide a convenience feature to save you time. The purpose of a cookie is to tell the web server that you have returned to a specific page. For example, if you register with us, a cookie helps Xsociety recall your specific information on subsequent visits. This simplifies the process of recording your personal information, such as billing addresses, shipping addresses, and so on. When you return to the same Xsociety website, the information you previously provided can be retrieved, so you can easily use the features you customized. A web beacon is a small graphic image that allows the party that sets the web beacon to monitor and collect certain information about the viewer of the web page, the web-based document, or email, such as the type of browser requesting the web beacon, the IP address of the computer to which the web beacon is sent, and the time the web beacon was viewed. Web beacons can be very small and invisible to the user, but, in general, any electronic image viewed as part of a web page or email, including HTML-based content, can act as a web beacon. We may use web beacons to count visitors to the web pages on the website or to monitor how our users navigate the website, and we may include web beacons in email messages to count how many sent messages were actually opened, acted upon, or forwarded.

Third-party providers may also use cookies on our website. For example, we may contract with third parties who will use cookies on our website to track and analyze anonymous usage and volume statistical information from our visitors and members. Such information is shared externally only on an anonymous, aggregated basis. These third parties use persistent cookies to help us improve visitor experience, manage our website content, and track visitor behavior. We may also contract with a third party to send email to our registered [users/members].

To help measure and improve the effectiveness of our email communications, the third party sets cookies. All data collected by this third party on behalf of Xsociety is used only by or on behalf of Xsociety and is shared externally only on an anonymous, aggregated basis. From time to time, we may allow third parties to post advertisements on our website, and these third-party advertisements may contain a cookie or web beacon served by the third party. This privacy policy does not cover the use of information collected from you by third-party ad servers. We do not control cookies in such third-party ads, and you should check these advertisers' and/or ad services' privacy policies to learn about their use of cookies and other technology before linking to an ad. We will not share your personal information with these companies, but these companies may use information about your visits to this and other websites to provide ads on this website and other sites about goods and services that may be of interest to you, and they may share your personal information that you provide to them with others.

How Xsociety uses your personal data:

Xsociety may retain and use personal information that we collect from or about you to provide you with access to this website or other products or services, to respond to your inquiries, to bill you for products/services you purchased, and to provide ongoing service and support, to contact you with information that may be of interest to you, including information about our and others' products and services, or to solicit your opinion about our products or others' products, for recordkeeping and analytical purposes, and to research, develop, and improve programs, products, services, and content.

Personal information collected online may be combined with information you provide to us through other sources. We may also remove your personal identifiers (your name, email address, social security number, etc.). In this case, you would no longer be identified as a single unique individual. Once we have de-identified information, it is non-personal information and we may treat it like other non-personal information. Finally, we may use your personal information to protect our rights or property, or to protect someone's health, safety, or welfare, and to comply with a law or regulation, court order, or other legal process.

Does Xsociety share your personal data with others?

We will not share your personal information collected from this website with a non-affiliated third party without your permission, except as stated in this privacy policy. In the ordinary course of business, we may share certain personal information with companies we hire to perform services or functions on our behalf. In all cases where we share your personal information with a third party for the purpose of providing a service to us, we will not allow them to retain, disclose, or use your information with others except for the purpose of providing the services we asked them to provide. We will not sell, trade, or publish your personal information, except in conjunction with a corporate sale, merger, dissolution, or acquisition. For certain types of transactions, in addition to our direct collection of information, our third-party service vendors (such as credit card companies, clearinghouses, and banks) who may provide such services as credit, insurance, and escrow services may collect personal information directly from you to assist you with your transaction. We do not control how these third parties use such information, but we ask them to disclose how they use your personal information before they collect it. If you submit a review for a third party (person or business) with our Facebook application for review, during the submission process, we ask for your permission to collect your basic information (such as name and email address) which we then share with the third party for whom you are submitting the review. We may be legally compelled to release your personal information in response to a court order, subpoena, search warrant, law, or regulation.

We may cooperate with law enforcement authorities to investigate and prosecute website visitors who violate our rules or engage in behavior that is harmful to other visitors (or illegal). We may disclose your personal information to third parties if we believe that disclosure is necessary to protect our rights or property, protect someone's health, safety, or welfare, or to comply with a law or regulation, court order, or other legal process. As discussed in the section on cookies and other technology, we may occasionally allow a third party to display advertisements on this website.

The email response or confirmation may contain your personal information. We cannot guarantee that our emails to you are secure from unauthorized interception.

HOW IS PERSONAL DATA SECURED?

We have implemented generally accepted standards of technology and operational security to protect personally identifiable information from loss, misuse, alteration, or destruction. Only authorized personnel and third-party vendors have access to your personal information, and these employees and vendors must treat this information as confidential. Despite these precautions, we cannot guarantee that unauthorized persons will not access your personal information.
