CONSUMER PRIVACY
I. INFORMATION WE COLLECT: INDIVIDUAL INTERNET
CONSUMERS
A. Personally Identifiable Information (PII).
Dimensional Documentation Design, Inc. Network sites are designed to
promote and facilitate the business of the Dimensional Documentation
Design, Inc. companies with consumers, advertisers and marketers. These
sites do they seek any PII from consumers. PII may be collected should a
consumer contact a Dimensional Documentation Design, Inc. company on
his/her own initiative or respond to a Dimensional Documentation Design,
Inc. advertisement and provide any PII. Under no circumstances does the
Dimensional Documentation Design, Inc. Network request or collect
sensitive PII such as an Internet user's medical/health conditions; racial
or ethnic origin; political, religious or philosophical beliefs or
affiliations; trade union membership or sex life.
B. Non-Personally Identifiable Information (Non-PII).
When a consumer responds to or views an Internet advertisement served by a
Dimensional Documentation Design, Inc. company (such as through
third-party Web sites or email solicitation) or visits a Dimensional
Documentation Design, Inc. Network site, we may send a cookie
and/or gif file ("Cookies") to assign an anonymous, unique
identifier to the end user's Internet browser. Cookies are small data
files commonly used on the Internet to help optimize and personalize the
Internet end user experience and identify repeat visitors to Web sites.
The function of these Cookies is to provide Dimensional
Documentation Design, Inc. with information for the purpose of paying
commissions when an Internet user clicks on a link, creates a lead, or
makes a purchase on an advertiser's Web site; and also to optimize and
personalize the Internet user's experience.
Like most standard Web site servers, we use log files to
collect Internet protocol (IP) addresses, browser type, Internet service
provider (ISP), referring/exit pages, platform type, and date/time stamp.
We use the information to analyze site usage, administer the site,
understand usage and navigation trends in aggregate, and determine the
relevance of content. This information, however, is not linked to any
personally identifiable information.
Dimensional Documentation Design, Inc. does not use
Cookies or log files to collect end users' names, physical addresses,
email addresses, phone numbers, credit card numbers, social security
numbers, or any other information that can be used to identify a specific
person. We may match the IP address and user profile with email address
data obtained separately in order to better target campaigns to meet
user's interests, but will not share this information with third parties.
In some cases, Dimensional Documentation Design, Inc.
receives and records partial email addresses of Internet users, only in
circumstances where the user voluntarily provided its identity and contact
information through the Network’s site, an Advertiser's site, or
third-party marketer's site. This partial email address does not enable
Dimensional Documentation Design, Inc. to personally identify an Internet
User. However, users may sign up for optional site features such as
newsletters. In this case email addresses are retained for only such
agreed upon purposes. We do not sell or transfer email addresses to third
parties.
II. INFORMATION SHARING
The Dimensional Documentation Design, Inc. Network may release account and
any other personal information when we believe release is appropriate to
respond to a subpoena or otherwise comply with the law; enforce or apply
our site terms and other agreements; or protect the rights, property, or
safety of Dimensional Documentation Design, Inc. or others. This includes
exchanging information with other companies and organizations for fraud
protection. When possible under the law, we will inform you of any such
activities.
III. CONSUMER CHOICE AND ACCESS
A. Opting Out.
Some Dimensional Documentation Design, Inc. Cookies have an
"opt-out" option. This process does not remove the Dimensional
Documentation Design, Inc. Cookie from your system; it simply replaces it
with an opt-out Cookie that does not contain any unique identifiers. If
this site provides such a process it is detailed below.
Some of Dimensional Documentation Design, Inc.'s Cookies
do not have an "opt-out" option, yet you still have the option
of blocking the use of Cookies by changing a setting in your Internet
browser. Please see your browser supplier's Web site for details on how to
do this.
This site does not maintain a process for an individual
consumer to opt-out of a Dimensional Documentation Design, Inc. ad serving
Cookie.
IV. SECURITY
The Dimensional Documentation Design, Inc. Network employs industry
standard security measures to ensure the security of all data. Any data
that is stored on Dimensional Documentation Design, Inc.'s servers is
treated as proprietary and confidential and is not available to the
public. Dimensional Documentation Design, Inc. has an internal security
policy with respect to the confidentiality of customer and other data,
allowing access only to those employees or third parties who have a need
to know such information for the purpose of effectively delivering
Dimensional Documentation Design, Inc. products and services by means of
user login and password requirements. The Dimensional Documentation
Design, Inc. Network routinely evaluates its data security practices to
identify security threats or opportunities for improvement.
No transmission of data over the Internet is guaranteed to
be completely secure. It may be possible for third parties not under the
control of Dimensional Documentation Design, Inc. to intercept or access
transmissions or private communications unlawfully. While we strive to
protect your PII, Dimensional Documentation Design, Inc. cannot ensure or
warrant the security of any information you transmit to us. You
acknowledge and assume this risk when communicating with a Dimensional
Documentation Design, Inc. Network company.
V. CONSENT AND CHANGES
The Dimensional Documentation Design, Inc. Network may find it necessary
or be legally obligated to update this Privacy Policy from time to time.
When we do, we will post those changes on this page and update the
effective date so that you are always aware of the information we collect,
how we use it, and under what circumstances we disclose it. Except as
otherwise required by law, modifications to this Privacy Policy will not
affect the privacy of data collected by Dimensional Documentation Design,
Inc. prior to the effective date of the policy change.
VI. CHILDREN'S PRIVACY AND SPAM
The Dimensional Documentation Design, Inc. is very sensitive to the issue
of children's privacy and makes every effort to protect the privacy of
children using the Internet. Dimensional Documentation Design, Inc.'s Web
site, products, and services are not developed for or directed at
children. Children (persons under the age of 18) are not eligible to do
business with us and we do not collect personal information from any
person we actually know is under that age. If you believe your child has
provided the Dimensional Documentation Design, Inc. Network with any
personally identifiable data by registering at a Dimensional Documentation
Design, Inc. Web site, please email the site’s webmaster to have them
removed.
The Dimensional Documentation Design, Inc. Network is
committed to proper Internet practices and full compliance with the
CAN-SPAM Act of 2003 (15 U.S.C. § 7701). It is our policy to prohibit the
sending of unsolicited or "Spam" e-mail by Dimensional
Documentation Design, Inc. or any of its marketing partners.
Please note that under the CAN-SPAM Act, an advertiser is
required to provide an opt-out mechanism for consumers to unsubscribe from
future emails about the advertiser. Although not required to by law, many
email marketers also include an opt-out mechanism to enable consumers to
be removed from their mailing list. This has caused some confusion for
consumers in opting out. The table below clarifies which opt-out mechanism
you should use for commercial emails.
VII. DATA PROCESSING/SAFE HARBOR
The European Union ("EU") maintains strict privacy laws. These
rules differ significantly from US laws. To reconcile these differences,
the US and the EU have created a Safe Harbor that defines mutually
acceptable privacy operations. Dimensional Documentation Design, Inc.,
Inc. adheres to the Safe Harbor principals. For more information see www.export.gov/safeharbor.
By providing information to Dimensional Documentation
Design, Inc. Network sites, you acknowledge that they operate in the
United States and agree to (i) permit Dimensional Documentation Design,
Inc. to transmit and use your User information anywhere necessary,
including across international boundaries, to affect the services and
transactions provided by this Site; and (ii) that such use by Dimensional
Documentation Design, Inc. shall be subject to the terms and conditions
stated in this Privacy Statement and our Terms
and Conditions.
VIII. NETWORK ADVERTISING INITIATIVE
Dimensional Documentation Design, Inc., Inc. is not a member of the
Network Advertising Initiative ("NAI"). The NAI is a group of
third party network advertisers committed to increasing consumer
confidence and contributing to the growth of electronic commerce. Although
we are not members, we strive to provide consumers with a clear
explanation of what data we collect, how we use them, and why the use of
data can benefit consumer's experience online. For more information about
