Privacy Policy effective as of April 2005

OrgInfo Privacy Statement:  OrgInfo has created this privacy statement ("Statement") in order to demonstrate our commitment to customer privacy.  Privacy on the OrgInfo web site (the "Site") is of great importance to us.  Because we gather important information from our visitors and customers, we have established this Statement as a means to communicate our information gathering and dissemination practices.  We reserve the right to change this Statement.

Confidentiality:  OrgInfo regards and treats your information as completely confidential and private.  Subscribed administrators of each directory are in complete control over which members are added and what access privileges each member will have.  Best efforts are used to maintain security and confidentiality of users' data.  Mailing lists are not disclosed, rented or sold to any individuals or organizations outside of OrgInfo or outside of OrgInfo's direct subcontractors who are needed to provide OrgInfo on the web.  Despite Orginfo's efforts to keep data confidential, Orginfo will not be responsible or liable for any damage as a result of any data being lost or stolen or inadvertently released.

Collected Information:  We require customers who register to use the services offered on our Site (collectively, the "Service") to give us contact information, such as their name, company name, address, phone number, and e-mail address, and financial qualification and billing information, such as billing name and address, credit card number, and the number of users within the organization that will be using the Service.  At the time you express interest in attaining additional information, or when you register for the Service, we may also ask for additional personal information, such as title, department name, fax number, or additional company information, such as annual revenues, number of employees, or industry.  Customers can opt out of providing this additional information by not entering it when asked.  Customers can update or remove their personal information at any time by signing into the Website and editing their Personal Information.  Customers can view their updated profile to confirm their edits have been made.

OrgInfo uses the information that we collect to set up the Service for individuals and their organizations.   Customer email addresses and any personal customer information will not be distributed or shared with third parties.  Separately, customers are also asked to provide an email address when registering for the Service, in order to receive a username and password.  We may also e-mail information regarding updates to the Service or company.  Again, e-mail addresses will not be distributed or shared.

Except as we explicitly state at the time we request information, or as provided for in the OrgInfo Master Subscription Agreement, we do not disclose to third parties the information provided.  All financial and billing information that we collect through the Site is used solely to check the qualifications of prospective customers and to bill for the Service.  This billing information is not used by OrgInfo for marketing or promotional purposes.  OrgInfo uses a third-party intermediary to manage the credit card processing.  This intermediary is solely a link in the distribution chain, and is not permitted to store, retain, or use the information provided, except for the sole purpose of credit card processing.  Other third parties, such as content providers, may provide content on the web Site but they are not permitted to collect any information nor does OrgInfo share user information with these parties.

Customers of the Service will be using the Site to host data and information ("Data").  OrgInfo will not review, share, distribute, print, or reference any such Data except as provided in the OrgInfo Master Subscription Agreement, or as may be required by law.  Individual records may at times be viewed or accessed only for the purpose of resolving a problem, support issue, or suspected violation of the Master Subscription Agreement, or as may be required by law.  Of course, customers are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality and security of their user registration and password.

OrgInfo may also collect certain information from visitors to and customers of the Site, such as Internet addresses. This information is logged to help diagnose technical problems, and to administer our Site in order to constantly improve the quality of the Service.  We may also track and analyze non-identifying and aggregate usage and volume statistical information from our visitors and customers and provide such information to third parties.

Cookies:  When you interact with the OrgInfo Website we strive to make that experience easy and meaningful.  When you come to our Web site, our Web server sends a cookie to your computer.  Cookies are files that Web browsers place on a computer's hard drive and are used to tell us whether customers and visitors have visited the Site previously.

Standing alone, cookies do not identify you personally.  They merely recognize your browser. Unless you choose to identify yourself to OrgInfo, either by responding to a promotional offer or opening an account, you remain anonymous to OrgInfo.  Cookies come in two flavors:  session and persistent-based.  Session cookies exist only during an online session.  They disappear from your computer when you close your browser software or turn off your computer.  Persistent cookies remain on your computer after you've closed your browser or turned off your computer. They include such information as a unique identifier for your browser.

OrgInfo uses session cookies containing encrypted information to allow the system to uniquely identify you while you are logged in.  This information allows OrgInfo to process your online transactions and requests.  Session cookies help us make sure you are who you say you are after you've signed in and are required in order to use the OrgInfo application.  OrgInfo do not use persistent cookies.  If we use them in the future, we would use persistent cookies that only OrgInfo can read and use, to identify the fact that you are a OrgInfo customer or prior OrgInfo Website visitor (whatever the case may be).  We are especially careful about the security and confidentiality of the information stored in persistent cookies.  For example, we do not store account numbers or passwords in persistent cookies.  Users who disable their Web browsers' ability to accept cookies will be able to browse our Website but will not be able to successfully use our Service.

Correcting & Updating Your Information:   If customers need to update or change registration information they may do so by editing the user or organization record.  To update a User Profile, a user may sign into OrgInfo to do this if the user has been given the permission by the Organization's Administrator, otherwise the Administrator can update the User Profile.  To update Organization's data, the Organization's Administrator must sign into OrgInfo to modify the Organization's record.
