Your privacy is important to Gravitant®. This Privacy Policy discloses the information practices for Gravitant’s Web Site, including what type of information is gathered and tracked, how the information is used, and with whom the information is shared.
Personal Information
In general, you can visit Gravitant® on the Internet without telling us who you are and without giving any personal information about yourself. There are times, however, when we may need information from you.
You may choose to give us personal information in a variety of situations. For example, you may want to give us information, such as your name and address or e-mail id, to correspond with you when you request quotes, services, support, or information. You may give us a description of your education and work experience in connection with a job opening at Gravitant® that you wish to be considered for. We intend to let you know how we will use such information before we collect it from you; if you tell us that you do not want us to use this information to make further contact with you beyond fulfilling your requests, we will respect your wishes.
The following paragraphs describe in more detail how Gravitant® may use your personal information and with whom we may share it.
Fulfilling Your Transaction Request
If you request something from Gravitant’s Web Site, for example, a product or service, a callback, or specific marketing materials, we will use the information you provide to fulfill your request. To help us do this, we may share information, with others, for instance, shipping companies and postal authorities involved in fulfillment.
Marketing Use
The information you provide to Gravitant® on its Web Site may also be used by Gravitant® and selected third parties for marketing purposes. Before we use it, however, we will offer you the opportunity to choose whether or not to have your information used in this way.
Recruitment
In connection with a job application or inquiry, whether advertised on Gravitant’s Web Site or otherwise, you may provide us with information about yourself, such as a resume or curriculum vitae. We may use this information for the purpose of employment consideration or your inquiry. Except where you tell us not to, we will keep the information for future consideration.
Information Security and Quality
We intend to protect your personal information and to maintain its quality. We implement appropriate measures and processes, such as using encryption when transmitting certain sensitive information, to help us to keep your information secure and to maintain its quality.
Supplementing Information
From time to time we may supplement information you give us via our Web Site with information from other sources, such as information validating your address or other available information about businesses. This is to help us maintain the accuracy of the information we collect and to help us provide a better service.
Use of Suppliers
In some cases Gravitant® uses suppliers to collect, use, analyze and otherwise process information on its behalf. It is Gravitant's practice to require such suppliers to handle information in a manner consistent with Gravitant's policies.
Cookies
We sometimes collect non-identifiable information from visits to our Web Sites to help us provide better customer service. For example, we keep track of the domains from which people visit, and we also measure visitor activity on Gravitant’s Web Site, but we do so in ways that keep the information non-identifiable. This information is sometimes known as "click stream data." Gravitant® or others on Gravitant's behalf may use this data to analyze trends and statistics and to help us provide better customer service.
Also, when we collect personal data from you in a transaction, we may extract some information about that transaction in an non-identifiable format and combine it with other non-identifiable information such as click stream data. This information is used and analyzed only at an aggregate level to help us understand trends and patterns. This information is not reviewed at an individual level. If you do not want your transaction details used in this manner you can disable your cookies.
We collect the information we mentioned in the previous paragraphs through the use of various technologies, including one called "cookies". A cookie is a piece of data that a Web site can send to your browser, which may then be stored on your computer as an anonymous tag that identifies your computer but not you. Some Gravitant® pages use cookies or other technologies to better serve you when you return to our Web Site. You can set your browser to notify you before you receive a cookie, giving you the chance to decide whether to accept it. You can also set your browser to turn off cookies. If you do so, however, some Web sites may not work properly.
Service Quality Monitoring
Certain Web transactions may also involve you calling us or our calling you. Please be aware that it is Gravitant's general practice to monitor and in some cases record such calls for staff training or quality assurance purposes.
Disclosures Required By Law
Please be aware that in certain circumstances, it is possible that personal information may be subject to disclosure pursuant to judicial or other government subpoenas, warrants, or orders.
Privacy Technology
Technology will increasingly help give you more control over your personal information. It will also help organizations to manage their privacy practices and policies. As an information technology provider, Gravitant® actively supports the development of privacy technologies to help achieve these goals and to help create greater trust and confidence in the way personal information is handled.
Other products and services are available which can assist you with the control of your personal information while navigating the Web. See http://www.privacyalliance.org/resources/rulesntools.shtml for an overview of many privacy-related tools. Please note that Gravitant® has not formally evaluated these tools.
