The Internet is an amazing tool. It has the power to change the way we live, and we see that potential every day. With only a few mouse-clicks, you can follow the news, look up facts, buy goods and services, and communicate with others from around the world. It’s important to Geosavi (hereinafter ‘GEOSAVI’) to help our customers retain their privacy when they take advantage of all the Internet has to offer.

Because your privacy is important to you and to us, we‘re committed to protecting the information you share with us. To protect your privacy, GEOSAVI follows different principles in accordance with worldwide practices for customer privacy and data protection.

• We won’t sell or give away your name, mail address, phone number, email address or any other information to anyone.
• We’ll use state-of-the-art security measures to protect your information from unauthorized users.

How we collect and store information depends on the page you are visiting, the activities in which you elect to participate and the services provided. We will ask you when we need information that personally identifies you (personal information) or allows us to contact you. Generally, this information is requested when you create a Client ID on the website or when you download free software, enter a contest, make a purchase, order email newsletters, join a limited-access premium website, or participate in an interactive area of our website such as message boards or chat rooms. We use your Personal Information for four primary purposes:

• To make the website easier for you to use by not having to enter information more than once.
• To help you quickly find software, services or information.
• To help us create content most relevant to you.
• To alert you to product upgrades, special offers, updated information and other new services from WCC.

If you choose not to register or provide personal information, or set your browser to refuse to accept cookies, you can still use most of www.geosavi.com. However, you will not be able to access certain portions of the website that require registration. You may also be asked to re-enter your username and password, and we may not be able to customize the websites features according to your preferences.

If you decide to register, you will be able to select the kinds of information you want to receive from us by subscribing to various services, like our electronic newsletters, blog posts or product promotions. If you do not want us to communicate with you about other offers regarding GEOSAVI products, programs, events, or services by email, postal mail, or telephone, you may select the option stating that you do not wish to receive marketing messages from GEOSAVI.

We will provide you with the means to ensure that your personal information is correct and current. You may review and update this information at any time in your client profile. There, you can:

• View and edit personal information you have already given us.
• Tell us whether you want us to send you marketing information, or whether you want third parties to send you their offers by postal mail.
• Sign up for electronic newsletters about our products and services.
• Register. Once you register, you won’t need to do it again. Wherever you go on www.geosavi.com, your information stays with you.

GEOSAVI has taken strong measures to protect the security of your personal information and to ensure that your choices for its intended use are honored. We take strong precautions to protect your data from loss, misuse, unauthorized access or disclosure, alteration, or destruction.

We guarantee your e-commerce transactions to be 100% safe and secure. When you place orders or access your personal account information, you’re utilizing secure server software SSL, which encrypts your personal information before it’s sent over the Internet. SSL is one of the safest encryption technologies available.

In addition, your transactions are guaranteed under the Fair Credit Billing Act. In the event of unauthorized use of your credit card, you must notify your credit card provider in accordance with its reporting rules and procedures.

Your personal information is never shared outside the company without your permission, except under conditions explained herein. Inside the company, data is stored in password-controlled servers with limited access. Your information may be stored and processed in the United States or any other country where GEOSAVI, its subsidiaries, affiliates or agents are located.

You also have a significant role in protecting your information. No one can see or edit your personal information without knowing your user name and password, so do not share these with others.

Parents or guardians: we want to help you guard your children’s privacy. We encourage you to talk to your children about safe and responsible use of their Personal Information while using the Internet.

The GEOSAVI website does not publish content that is targeted to children. However, if you are concerned about your children providing GEOSAVI any personal information without your consent, please contact us immediately by email at: [email protected]

If for some reason you believe GEOSAVI has not adhered to these principles, please notify us by email at [email protected], and we will do our best to determine and correct the problem promptly. Be certain the words Privacy Policy are in the Subject line.

When you buy and install a new product, we may ask you to register your purchase electronically. When you do, we merge your registration information with any information you’ve already left with us (we call that information your personal profile). If you haven’t previously registered with us, we create a personal profile for you from your product registration information. If you ever want to review or update that information, you can visit the Profile Center, click on Update Profile, and edit any of the Personal Information in your profile. If you haven’t already created a Registration ID, we will ask you to do so. This ensures that only you can access your information.

As mentioned above, every registered customer has a unique personal profile. Each profile is assigned a unique personal identification number, which helps us ensure that only you can access your profile.

When you register, we create your profile, assign a personal identification number, and then send this personal identification number back to your hard drive in the form of a cookie, which is a very small bit of code. This code is uniquely yours. It is your passport to seamless travel across www.geosavi.com, allowing you to download free software, order free newsletters, and visit premium websites without having to fill out registration forms with information you’ve already provided. Even if you switch computers, you won’t have to re-register – just use your Registration ID to identify yourself.

When you join us, you provide us with your contact information, including your name and email address. We use this information to enhance your visit and deliver more individualized content, to send you updates about your order, questionnaires to measure your satisfaction with our service and announcements about new services that we offer. When you order from us, we ask for your credit card number and billing address. We use this information only to bill you for the product(s) you order at that time. For your convenience, we do save billing information in case you want to order from us again, but we don’t use this information again without your permission.

Aggregated Information (information that does not personally identify you) may be used in many ways. For example, we may combine information about your usage patterns with similar information obtained from other users to help enhance our website and services (e.g., to learn which pages are visited most or what features are most attractive). Aggregated Information may occasionally be shared with our advertisers and business partners. This information does not include any Personally Identifiable Information about you or allow anyone to identify you individually.

GEOSAVI may use personal information collected on its company websites to communicate with you about your registration and customization preferences, our Terms of Service and Privacy Policy, services and products offered by GEOSAVI and other topics we think you might find of interest.

Personal information collected by GEOSAVI through any of its company web websites may also be used for other purposes, including but not limited to website administration, troubleshooting, processing of e-commerce transactions, administration of sweepstakes and contests, and other communications with you. Certain third parties who provide technical support for the operation of our website (our web hosting service for example) may access such information. We will use your information only as permitted by law. In addition, from time to time, as we continue to develop our business, we may sell, buy, merge or partner with other companies or businesses. In such transactions, user information may be among the transferred assets

We occasionally hire third party companies to provide limited services on our behalf, including but not limited to packaging, shipping, mailing and delivering purchases, answering customer questions about products or services, sending postal mail and processing event registration. We will only provide those companies the information they need to deliver the service, and they are prohibited from using that information for any other purpose.

GEOSAVI will disclose your personal information, without notice, only if required to do so by law or in the good faith belief that such action is necessary to: (a) conform to the edicts of the law or comply with legal process served on GEOSAVI or the website; (b) protect and defend the rights or property of GEOSAVI and its family of websites, and, (c) act in urgent circumstances to protect the personal safety of users of GEOSAVI, its websites, or the public.

Geosavi and our company websites expect its partners, advertisers and affiliates to respect the privacy of our users. Be aware, however, that third parties, including our partners, advertisers, affiliates and other content providers accessible through our website, may have their own privacy and data collection policies and practices. For example, during your visit to our website you may link to, or view as part of a frame of content, products or services that are actually created or hosted by a third party. Also, through our company websites you may be introduced to, or be able to access, information, websites, features, contests or sweepstakes offered by other parties. Geosavi is not responsible for the actions or policies of such third parties. You should check the applicable privacy policies of those third parties when providing information on a feature or page operated by a third party.

While on our website, our advertisers, promotional partners or other third parties may use cookies or other technology to attempt to identify some of your preferences or retrieve information about you. For example, some of our advertising is served by third parties and may include cookies that enable the advertiser to determine whether you have seen a particular advertisement before. Other features available on our website may offer services operated by third parties and may use cookies or other technology to gather information. Geosavi does not control the use of this technology by third parties or the resulting information and is not responsible for any actions or policies of such third parties.

You should also be aware that if you voluntarily disclose personal information on message boards or in chat areas, that information can be viewed publicly and can be collected and used by third parties without our knowledge and may result in unsolicited messages from other individuals or third parties. Such activities are beyond the control of Geosavi and this policy.
