INFORMATION WE COLLECT AND HOW WE USE IT

ACCESS TO YOUR INFORMATION AND COMPLAINTS


Introduction

MicroSurvey ("MicroSurvey," or "we," as appropriate) is committed to safeguarding the privacy of visitors to our Web sites and the pages therein (collectively, the "Site") and users of the other services available through our Site (the "Service(s)"). We will use the efforts described under the “Security” heading below to ensure that the information you provide us remains private and is used only for the purposes set forth herein.
The MicroSurvey Privacy Policy details our commitment to protect your information and the limited manner in which we will use that information to provide and improve our provision of the Services. We've developed our Privacy Policy from industry guidelines and standards, and local, national, and international laws and requirements. All privacy practices and methods described herein only apply insofar as permitted by the applicable standards, laws and requirements and as limited by the website or interactive banner you are visiting.

Important Terms Used Throughout This Privacy Policy

Throughout the MicroSurvey Privacy Policy we use several specialized terms. "Personally Identifiable Information" is information that tells us specifically who you are, like your name, street address, email address, billing address, credit card number and expiration date. "User Information" means all Personally Identifiable Information and any other forms of information discussed in the MicroSurvey Privacy Policy, including the Internet Protocol (IP) address of a user's computer. We use the term "aggregate" when we combine information from various persons or users. Information is said to be "anonymized" if it does not identify individual persons or entities or associate a particular person or entity with such information.

We use this information to measure the number of visitors to sections of our sites, to determine from where our visitors linked and to where our visitors link from the sites and to help us make our sites more useful. For example, we organize and analyze IP addresses so that we can provide efficient service, enhance security, monitor appropriate usage and produce traffic volume statistics. This type of information is sometimes shared with affiliates of MicroSurvey as well as third parties, such as when we aggregate and disclose site traffic information for marketing and commercial purposes. When we share such information with third parties we will require them to abide by the standards of the MicroSurvey Privacy Policy. MicroSurvey is the sole owner of the information collected on this Site.
