Privacy Policy

Date:  April 8, 2006

 This statement discloses the privacy practices for the CertiPath.com web site and informs you about: 

(1)     what personally identifiable information is collected;

(2)     what organization is collecting the information;

(3)     how the information is used and disclosed to third parties;

(4)     what choices are available to you regarding collection, use and distribution of the information;

(5)     how to correct, update or delete personally identifiable information; and

(6)     what kind of security procedures are in place to protect the loss, misuse or alteration of information under the company’s control. 

“Personally identifiable information” is information that would allow someone to identify or contact you, including, for example, your full name, address, telephone number or email address.  

Questions regarding this Privacy Policy should be sent via email to “Support” at support@certipath.com. 

This policy only addresses our activities from our servers.  Other sites (including those that we link to and third party sites or services which we co-brand) may have their own policies, which we do not control, and thus are not addressed by this policy.  

(1)  What Personally Identifiable Information Is Collected.

You provide certain personal information to us when you register to receive white papers or other similar information from CertiPath.com retrieved from this site.  If we collect personal information from you at other points on our site, we will state that that personal information is being collected.

 (2)  What Organization Is Collecting the Information. 

CertiPath LLC owns and operates the CertiPath.com web site and is the company that collects personal information on our site.  Our mailing address 13530 Dulles Technology Dr., Ste 200
Herndon, VA 20171, our telephone number is 703.793.7870, and our customer service email address is support@certipath.com.  Our servers automatically collect information about which sites users visit and which pages are viewed within CertiPath.com, but in these instances, we do not obtain personally identifiable information about you. 

 (3)  How the Information Is Used and Disclosed to Third Parties.

As a general practice, we do not provide your personally identifiable information to third parties.  So, for example, we do not sell your email address or your name and personal demographic information to mass marketers.  However, on particular pages where we ask for your personally identifiable information, we may explicitly tell you that the data we are collecting on that page will be shared with third parties, in which case those disclosures shall override anything to the contrary in this policy.  We may use your information on an aggregated basis to do such things as operate and enhance our site. 

 (4)  Controlling the Collection, Use and Distribution of Your Information.

You can control the content of your personal information by following the instructions stated below in section 5.  Please note that if you provide any information directly to parties who provide service to our web site or any other sites you encounter on the Internet (even if these sites are branded with our branding), different rules may apply to their use or disclosure of the personal information you disclose to them.  We encourage you to investigate and ask questions before disclosing information to third parties.

 (5)      Correcting, Updating and Deleting Personal Information.

You can access, update, or delete your personal information by sending an email with your request or instructions to support@certipath.com.  If you delete such information, it cannot be used by us or disclosed to third parties in the future.  Even if you delete or change some personal information in our registration database, it may still be stored on other databases (including those kept for archival purposes). 

 (6)      Our Security Procedures.

We have established and maintain reasonable security procedures to protect the confidentiality, security and integrity of your personally identifiable information.  “Perfect security,” however, does not exist on the Internet.  Although your privacy is very important to us, due to the existing legal regulatory and security environment, we cannot fully ensure that your private communications and other personally identifiable information will not be disclosed to third parties.  For example, we may be forced to disclose information to the government or third parties under certain circumstances, or third parties may unlawfully intercept or access transmissions or private communications.  Additionally, in the unlikely event we need to investigate or resolve possible problems or inquiries, we can (and you authorize us to do so) disclose any information about you to private entities, law enforcement or other government officials as we, in our sole discretion, believe necessary or appropriate. 

We hope this policy clarifies our procedures regarding your personal information.  We may amend this policy at any time by sending the amended policy to the email address you provide to us, or by posting the amended version on our home page.
