| taxandcustomstechnology.com
is committed to protecting your privacy and ensuring the security
of the information you submit to us. We want your use of the
Taxandcustomstechnology.com web site, and the services we offer,
to be productive and safe. Taxandcustomstechnology.com's Privacy
Policy illustrates our commitment to your privacy and security.
When you register at Taxandcustomstechnology.com, we request
your name, e-mail address, phone number, postal address, ZIP
Code, state, and country. We use this data to manage registrations,
and, when you place an order, to contact you about your order
and to print your return address on Taxandcustomstechnology.com
envelopes.
We may use your e-mail address, mailing address and/or phone
number to contact you regarding new product offerings and other
aspects of your use of the Taxandcustomstechnology.com web site.
If, however, you do not wish to receive such communications,
you have the ability to "opt-out" at any time.
In order to take payment for your order, we collect credit card
information. To maintain the highest level of security, your
credit card information is encrypted using secure sockets layer
(SSL) technology. SSL is secure server software that protects
against any unauthorized access. Taxandcustomstechnology.com
uses your credit card information for the sole purpose of accepting
payment for your order.
From time to time, we may ask you to answer surveys regarding
current or future Taxandcustomstechnology.com products. Participation
in these surveys is always optional. Survey responses are only
used in the aggregate, and are never linked to an individual.
While our survey data is primarily for use within Taxandcustomstechnology.com
only, we may occasionally share the aggregate survey data with
our development partners (e.g. web design, advertising and marketing
agencies) in order to facilitate new product development.
We may occasionally have a special relationship with another
company, an entity that we think of as a marketing partner.
By this we mean that a portion or version of our web site is
integrated into our partner's web site or is integrated with
our partner's content or branding. In such a circumstance, because
we are jointly presenting our web site with our partner, and
because the partner is referring customers to Taxandcustomstechnology.com,
we may agree to share information with the partner as part of
our formal contract with that partner, including confidentiality
and use obligations and restrictions regarding how the partner
may use the information. In these instances where Taxandcustomstechnology.com
and a partner jointly promote Taxandcustomstechnology.com's
Services, Taxandcustomstechnology.com may provide the partner
certain personal information, such as the name, address, and
username as a result of the joint promotion of Taxandcustomstechnology.com.
We only share this information for users coming to Taxandcustomstechnology.com
from a partner web site. Again, at the point of registration,
you have the option to "opt-out" of receiving e-mails
or promotional materials. If you have linked to Taxandcustomstechnology.com
through a marketing partner as described here, the web page
you view will be co-branded with the marketing partner. If you
would like information about the information use and practices
of a marketing partner, Taxandcustomstechnology.com recommends
that you view the policy of the marketing partner.
Tracking Information
Like most every web site, the Taxandcustomstechnology.com web
site records certain tracing information any time someone visits
the site. For every web page that is viewed, our web server
records an IP address, the operating system, browser version
and the name of the page that was viewed. This information is
not linked to any specific user and is used in the aggregate
to maintain and improve the Taxandcustomstechnology.com web
site.
Cookies
A cookie is a small piece of information that is stored by your
browser on your computer's hard drive. Taxandcustomstechnology.com
uses cookies to track your order process without having to re-verify
your password on each page of the site. Rather than storing
this information on Taxandcustomstechnology.com's server, the
cookie is stored in your computer and is activated only when
you visit the Taxandcustomstechnology.com site. Your privacy
and security are not compromised when you accept a cookie from
the Taxandcustomstechnology.com web site. No one can access
the information except Taxandcustomstechnology.com.
Links to Other Sites
Our web site contains links to sites developed by other companies
and organizations. Please be aware that these sites' privacy
policies may differ from ours.
"Opt Out" Policy
By default, we do not send Taxandcustomstechnology.com users
any unsolicited e-mail. We only send notifications of product
updates, etc., if a user has specifically requested this information.
The choice of whether or not to receive these notifications
can be changed at any time by sending an e-mail to info@Taxandcustomstechnology.com.
Updating Your Information
All of your personal information can be corrected or updated
at any time by visiting the "My Account" section of
the Taxandcustomstechnology.com site.
Taxandcustomstechnology.com Website Security
The Taxandcustomstechnology.com web site uses secure sockets
layer (SSL) to encrypt the transfer of sensitive information,
such as your account password and billing information, from
your web browser to our web server.
The same SSL protocol also acts to authenticate the www.Taxandcustomstechnology.com
site and prevent unauthorized "hackers" from masquerading
as the Taxandcustomstechnology.com site. This is accomplished
through a "digital certificate", which is an unforgeable
electronic "identity card".
If another website attempts to falsely identify itself as www.Taxandcustomstechnology.com,
your web browser will display a warning indicating that there
is a problem with the digital certificate for www.Taxandcustomstechnology.com.
Do not log in to the Taxandcustomstechnology.com site if you
see any such warning.
How You Can Help Keep Your Information Secure
The most important step you can take to keep your information
secure is to keep your password secure. Do not give your password
to other people and avoid choosing "easily guessed"
passwords (e.g. any single word in the dictionary, proper names
of people and places easily associated with you, etc.). Change
your password immediately if you suspect someone has been accessing
your account without your permission (click on the "Profile"
section of the Taxandcustomstechnology.com web site after logging
in). If for any reason you suspect a security violation has
occurred, please immediately send an e-mail to info@Taxandcustomstechnology.com.
with a description of the situation.
Your Consent
In addition to the circumstances described above, Taxandcustomstechnology.com
may disclose or release information when we, in good faith,
believe that doing so is reasonably necessary to (i) comply
with the law, (ii) enforce or apply the terms of any of our
user agreements, or (iii) protect the rights, property or safety
of Taxandcustomstechnology.com, our users, or others. By using
our web site, you consent to the collection and use of information
by Taxandcustomstechnology.com as described in this Privacy
Policy. If we decide to change our policy, we will post those
changes here so you will always know what information we gather,
how we use it and under what circumstances we disclose it.
If you have any questions regarding Taxandcustomstechnology.com's
privacy policy and practices, please direct them to the Taxandcustomstechnology.com
Support Team.
Aggregate
When a site states that they collect information in the aggregate,
they mean for summary purposes only. For example, sites that
collect IP addresses "in the aggregate" do so to answer
such questions as: "How many people from America Online
visited our site last week?"
IP Address
When you are connected to the Internet, your computer has a
unique Internet ID called an IP address. Most people that connect
through a dial-up service, such as America Online, get a different
IP address each time they login. Others logging in from work
or school might have a permanently assigned IP address, called
a static IP address. It is difficult or impossible for a web
site to collect personal information about you (i.e., your name,
e-mail address, etc.) from your IP address alone, although a
static IP Address can be used to identify a little bit more
about you (i.e. your company name, or university name).
SSL (Secure Sockets Layer)
SSL is a communication protocol that accomplishes two things:
It allows your web browser to verify that a web site you're
visiting is actually the site that you think it is (and not
some site posing as another).
It lets your web browser and a web server communicate with each
other (i.e. pass web pages back and forth) in a completely secure
fashion through the use of very strong encryption techniques.
This encrypted communication makes it impossible for anyone
else to see any information passed between your web browser
and our web server.
