Our collection of

collected directly from you.
Generally, you can visit Secura Key's websites without entering any personal

title, company/organization name, e-mail address, telephone and fax numbers, and
physical address; information about your company, and job function; your e-mail
marketing preferences; financial information (including credit card or account
information); information such as your nationality and country of residence that
allows us to determine your eligibility under export control regulations to

information that assists us in identifying the products and services that best
meet your requirements; event registration information; and feedback from you

You are not required to provide any of this information, but if you do not, we
may not be able to provide you the requested service or complete your
transaction.
Information collected automatically We collect information about your
visit to our sites, including what pages you view, the number of bytes
transferred, the links you click, the materials you access, and other actions
taken within Secura Key's sites. On sites that you enter with a user ID, we may
connect this information with your identity to determine your potential
interests in our products and services. We also collect certain standard
information that your browser sends to every website you visit, such as your
Internet Protocol (IP) address, your browser type and capabilities and language,
your operating system, the date and time you access the site, and the website

identity.
Our use of information
Services and
transactions.
We use your personal information to deliver services or carry out transactions
you have requested, such as providing information on Secura Key products,
registering purchased products, processing product orders, handling warranty
claims, replacing product manuals, answering customer service requests,
facilitating use of our websites, and so forth. In order to offer you a more
consistent experience in your interactions with Secura Key, information
collected by our websites may be combined with information we collect by other
means.
Website improvement. We may use your personal information to improve our
websites and related Secura Key products or services, or to make our websites
easier to use by eliminating the need for you to repeatedly enter the same
information or by customizing our websites to your particular preference or
interests.

information gathered via our websites to inform you of products or services
available from Secura Key. When collecting information that might be used to
contact you about our products and services, we will always give you the
opportunity to opt-out of receiving such communications. Moreover, each e-mail
communication we send includes an unsubscribe link allowing you to stop delivery
of that type of communication. If you elect to unsubscribe, we will remove you
from the relevant list within 10 business days.
Employment Applications. In connection with a job application or inquiry,
you may provide us with information about yourself, such as a resume or
curriculum vitae. We may use this information throughout Secura Key and its
controlled subsidiaries and affiliates for the purpose of employment
consideration. We will keep the information for future consideration unless you
direct us not to do so.
Our use of cookies and web beacons
Cookies are small files that websites save to your hard disk or to your
browser's memory. We may use them to track the number of times you have visited
the site, to track the number of visitors to the site, to determine and analyze
visitors' use of our sites (including the effectiveness of online advertising),
to store information that you provide such as your preferences, and to store
technical information useful for your interactions with our websites. We may use
session cookies (cookies that are deleted when your browser session ends) to
store your user ID, elements of your user profile, to facilitate your movement
around our websites (particularly in connection with information searches and
order placement) and other information useful in administering the session. You
have the ability to accept or decline cookies. Most Internet browsers
automatically accept cookies, but you can usually modify your browser settings
to decline cookies or to notify you when a cookie is being placed on your
computer. If you choose to decline cookies, you may not be able to fully
experience the features of Secura Key's websites or other websites that you
visit. Our sites also may contain electronic images known as web beacons -
sometimes called single-pixel gifs - that allow us to count the number of users
who have visited those pages. We may include web beacons in promotional e-mail
messages or Newsletters in order to determine whether messages have been opened
and acted upon.
Disclosure of your personal information
Except as described below, personal information you provide to Secura Key
through our websites will not be shared outside of Secura Key and its controlled
subsidiaries and affiliates without your permission.
Disclosure to service providers. Secura Key contracts with other
companies to provide services on our behalf, such as hosting websites, sending
out information, processing transactions, and analyzing our websites. We provide
these companies with only those elements of your personal information they need
to deliver those services. These companies and their employees are prohibited
from using that personal information for any other purpose.
Disclosure to distributors. In responding to a request made by you, we
may share your personal information with companies that distribute our products.
In those cases, we provide these companies with only those elements of your
personal information they need to respond to your request, and these companies
and their employees are prohibited from using that personal information for any
other purpose. In some cases, we may seek your permission to share your
information with distributors for marketing purposes other than responding to a
request from you. However, we will not share your information for such marketing
purposes unless we have obtained your express consent to do so.
Disclosure in connection with transactions. In connection with certain
transactions, we may disclose some or all of your personal information to
financial institutions, government entities, and shipping companies or postal
services involved in fulfillment.
Disclosures in connection with acquisitions or divestitures.
Circumstances may arise where for strategic or other business reasons Secura Key
decides to sell, buy, merge or otherwise reorganize businesses in some
countries. Such a transaction may involve the disclosure of personal information
to prospective or actual purchasers, or receiving it from sellers. It is Secura
Key's practice to seek appropriate protection for information in these types of
transactions.
Disclosure for other reasons. We may disclose personal information if
required to do so by law or in the good-faith belief that such action is
necessary to comply with legal requirements or with legal process served on us,
to protect and defend our rights or property, or in urgent circumstances to
protect the personal safety of any individual.
Security
Secura Key is committed to protecting the security of your personal information.
We use a variety of security technologies and procedures to help protect your
personal information from unauthorized access, use, or disclosure. For example,
we store the personal information you provide on computer systems with limited
access that are located in facilities to which access is limited. For sites to
which you login, it is your responsibility to ensure the security of your
password and not to reveal this information to others. When you move around a
site to which you have logged in, or from one site to another that uses the same
login mechanism, we verify your identity by means of an encrypted cookie placed
on your machine.
Consent to international transfers of personal
information
The personal information we collect on our website may be sent to the United
States or to any other country in which Secura Key or its affiliates,
subsidiaries or agents maintain facilities. We may also store and process the
information there. Although the laws that protect personal information in those
countries may differ from the laws where you live, we will take reasonable steps
to ensure that your privacy is protected. By using our websites and giving your
information to us, you consent to the transfer of the data outside of your
country.
Children's information
Secura Key does not knowingly collect information from children and does not
target or direct its websites to children.
Links to other sites
Our websites may contain links to other sites such as Secura Key distributors
and sales affiliates, professional and government organizations, and
publications. We also link to third-party providers that host, maintain and
operate on-line training curricula. While we try to link only to sites that
share our high standards and respect for privacy, we are not responsible for the
content, security, or privacy practices employed by other sites.
