Network Critical Online Privacy Statement

Network Critical is committed to respecting and protecting your privacy.  We've structured our web site so that, in general, you can visit Network Critical on the Web without identifying yourself or revealing any personal information.

Once you choose to provide us personally identifiable information (i.e. any information by which you can be identified), you can be assured that it will only be used to support your customer relationship with Network Critical.

This statement regarding the privacy of the personally identifiable information you provide online covers the five foundation principles of fair information: Awareness, Choice, Accuracy and Access, Security and Oversight.

Awareness
Network Critical provides this Online Privacy Statement to make you aware of our privacy policy and practices and of the choices you can make about the way your information is collected and used.

What we collect
On this web site, you can make requests and register to receive materials.  The types of personal information collected at these pages are name and contact details.  In order to tailor our subsequent communications to you and continuously improve our products and services (including registration), we may also ask you to provide us with information regarding your professional interests, experience with our products and more detailed contact preferences.  Some electronic newsletters record anonymous data about articles you have expressed interest in.

How we use it
Network Critical uses your information to better understand your needs and provide you with better service.  Specifically, we use your information to help you complete a transaction, to communicate back to you, to update you on service and benefits and to personalize our web site for you.  From time to time, we may also use your information to contact you for market research or to provide you with marketing information we think would be of particular interest.  At a minimum, we will always give you the opportunity to opt out of receiving such direct marketing or market research contact.  We will also follow local requirements, such as allowing you to opt in before receiving unsolicited contact, where applicable.

Who we share it with
Network Critical will not sell, rent, or lease your personally identifiable information to others.  Unless we have your permission or are required by law, we will only share the personal data you provide online with business partners who are acting on our behalf for the uses described in "how we use it".  Such business partners are governed by our privacy policies with respect to the use of this data and are bound by the appropriate confidentiality agreements.  Data collected online may also be combined with information you provide when you register your ownership of Network Critical distributed products.

Choice
Network Critical will not use or share the personally identifiable information provided to us online in ways unrelated to the ones described above without first letting you know and offering you a choice. As previously stated, we will also provide you the opportunity to let us know if you do not wish to receive unsolicited direct marketing materials from us and we will do everything we can to honour such requests.  Your permission is always secured first, should we ever share your information with third parties that are not acting on our behalf and governed by our privacy policy.

Accuracy and Access
Network Critical strives to keep your personally identifiable information accurate.  Links to third party web sites on the site are provided solely as a convenience to you.  If you use these links, you will leave the Network Critical site.  Network Critical has not reviewed all of these third party sites and does not control and is not responsible for any of these sites, their content or their privacy policy.  Thus, Network Critical does not endorse or make any representations about them, or any information, software or other products or materials found there, or any results that may be obtained from using them.  If you decide to access any of the third party sites linked to this site, you do so at your own risk.

Security
Network Critical is committed to ensuring the security of your information. To prevent unauthorized access or disclosure, maintain data accuracy and ensure the appropriate use of information, we have put in place appropriate physical, electronic and managerial procedures to safeguard and secure the information we collect online.
