Online Privacy Statement
Equidigm Financial Solutions, LLC (Equidigm)
respects your privacy and is committed to protecting the personal information
you share with us. This statement describes how Equidigm collects and uses your
personal information to provide services that you request or when you choose to
provide us with your personal information.
Information Collection
Personal information means any information that
may be used to identify an individual, including, but not limited to, a first
and last name, email address, a home, postal or other physical address, other
contact information, title, occupation, industry, personal interests, and other
information when needed to provide a service or product or carry out a
transaction you have requested.
When you browse our website, you do so
anonymously, unless you have previously registered with us. We do not
automatically collect personal information, including your email address. We may
log your IP address (the Internet address of your computer) to give us an idea
of which part of our website you visit and how long you spend there. But we do
not link your IP address to any personal information unless you have registered
with us. Like many other commercial websites, the Equidigm website may use a
standard technologies, such as “cookies” and other HTML tools, to collect
information about how you use the site or to record that you opened an email
marketing message.
Equidigm collects personal information when you
register with one of Equidigm's website, when you use certain Equidigm products
or services, when you register to attend a seminar or participate in an online
survey, when you ask to be included in an email or other mailing list, or when
you submit an entry for a sweepstakes or other promotions, or when you submit
your personal information to Equidigm for any other reason. From time to time,
Equidigm receives personal information from business partners and vendors.
Equidigm only uses such information if it has been collected in accordance with
acceptable privacy practices consistent with this Privacy Statement and
applicable laws.
Access to certain Equidigm web pages requires a
login and a password. The use of those web pages, and the information or
programs downloadable from those sites, may be governed by a separate written
agreement. Unless you request deactivation of your personal information as
specified below, your personal information may be retained by Equidigm to verify
compliance with the agreement, log software/information licenses granted, track
software downloaded from those pages, or track usage of other applications
available on those pages.
Notice
When personal information is collected, we will
inform you at the point of collection the purpose for the collection. Equidigm
will not transfer your personal information to third parties without your
consent, except under the limited conditions described under the discussion
entitled "Information Sharing and
Disclosure" below.
In most cases we will provide you with the
opportunity to "opt in" prior to receiving direct marketing or market
research information. This means we will require your affirmative action to
indicate your consent before we use your information for purposes other than the
purpose for which it was submitted. At a minimum, we will always give you the
opportunity to "opt out" of receiving such materials. This means we
assume you have given us your consent to collect and use your information in
accordance with this Privacy Statement unless you take affirmative action to
indicate that you do not consent, for instance by clicking or checking the
appropriate option or box at the point of collection.
Cookies and Other Tracking Technologies
A cookie is a small data file that certain
websites write to your computer’s hard drive when you visit them. A cookie
file can contain information such as a user ID that the site uses to track the
pages you have visited, but the only personal information a cookie can contain
is information you supply yourself. A cookie cannot read data off your hard disk
or read cookie files created by other sites. Some parts of Equidigm's website
use cookies to track user traffic patterns. We do this in order to determine the
usefulness of our website information to our users and to see how effective our
navigational structure is in helping users reach that information.
Some Equidigm websites and HTML-formatted
e-mail newsletters may use web beacons in conjunction with cookies to understand
user behavior. A web beacon is an electronic image, called a single-pixel (1x1)
or clear GIF. Web beacons can recognize certain types of information on a
visitor's computer, such as a visitor's cookie number, time and date of a page
view, and a description of the page where the web beacon is placed. Some Web
beacons may be unusable if you elect to reject their associated cookies.
Equidigm may also use customized links or other similar technologies to track
email links that you click. We may associate that information with your personal
information in order to provide you more focused e-mail communications or
purchase information. Each e-mail communication includes an unsubscribe link
allowing you to stop delivery of that type of communication.
If you prefer not to receive cookies while
browsing our website or via HTML-formatted emails, you can set your browser to
warn you before accepting cookies and refuse the cookie when your browser alerts
you to its presence. You can also refuse all cookies by turning them off in your
browser, although you may not be able to take full advantage of Equidigm's
website if you do so. In particular, you may be required to accept cookies in
order to complete certain actions on our website. You do not need to have
cookies turned on, however, to use/navigate through many parts of our website,
except access to certain of Equidigm's web pages may require a login and
password.
How We Use Information Collected
Equidigm uses information for several general
purposes: to fulfill your requests for certain products and services, to
personalize your experience on our website, to keep you up to date on the latest
product announcements, information or software updates, special offers or other
information we think you would like to hear about either from us or from our
business partners, and to better understand your needs and provide you with
better services. We may also use your information to send you, or to have our
business partners send you, direct marketing information or contact you for
market research.
Because Equidigm is a global company, your
personal information may be shared with other Equidigm offices or subsidiaries
around the world. All such entities are governed by this Privacy Statement or
are bound by appropriate confidentiality and data transfer agreements.
Your personal information is never shared
outside Equidigm without your permission, except under conditions explained
below. Inside Equidigm, data is stored in controlled servers with limited
access. Your information may be stored and processed in the United States or any
other country where Equidigm, its subsidiaries, affiliates or agents are
located.
Equidigm may send your personal information to
other companies or people under any of the following circumstances:
- when we have your consent to share the
information;
- if sharing your information is necessary to
provide a product or service you have requested (If your information is
shared with third parties we will only provide the information they need to
deliver the service. Also, such companies are prohibited from using your
information for any other purpose);
- as part of a joint sales promotion or to
pass sales leads to one of our distribution partners; and
- • to keep you up to date on the latest
product announcements, information updates, special offers or other
information we think you would like to hear about either from us or from our
business partners (unless you have opted out of these types of
communications).
We will also disclose your personal information
if required to do so by law, to enforce our Terms of Use, or in urgent
circumstances, to protect personal safety, the public or our websites.
Your Ability to Access, Update or Deactivate
Your Information
You may also request deactivation of your
Equidigm account or any of your personal information held by us by sending an
email to privacy@equidigm.com. If
you choose to deactivate your account, we will retain in our files some personal
information you have requested to remove to prevent fraud, resolve disputes,
troubleshoot problems, enforce our Terms of Use, respect your opt-out
preferences, and comply with legal requirements as permitted by law.
Data Security
Your Equidigm account information is
password-protected for your privacy and security. Equidigm safeguards the
security of the data you send us with physical, electronic, and managerial
procedures. In certain areas of our websites, Equidigm uses industry-standard
SSL-encryption to enhance the security of sensitive data transmissions. While we
strive to protect your personal information, we cannot ensure the security of
the information you transmit to us, and so we urge you to take every precaution
to protect your personal data when you are on the Internet. When applicable,
change your passwords often, use a combination of letters and numbers, and make
sure you use a secure browser.
Children and Privacy
Our websites do not target and are not intended
to attract children. Equidigm does not knowingly solicit personal information
from children under the age of 16 or send them requests for personal
information.
Third Party Sites
Equidigm's website contains links to other
sites. Equidigm does not share your personal information with those websites and
is not responsible for their privacy practices. We encourage you to learn about
the privacy policies of those companies.
Our website may contain links to websites
operated by other companies. Some of these third-party sites may be co-branded
with a Equidigm logo, even though they are not operated or maintained by
Equidigm. Although we choose our business partners carefully, Equidigm is not
responsible for the privacy practices of web sites operated by third parties
that are linked to our site. Once you have left our website, you should check
the applicable privacy statement of the third party website to determine how
they will handle any information they collect from you.
Changes to this Privacy Statement
Equidigm will amend this privacy statement from
time to time. If we make any substantial changes in the way we use your personal
information we will make that information available by posting a notice on this
site.

collection, use, or disclosure of your personal information, please email us at privacy@equidigm.com.
