This
website is administered by SafeFab Corporation. The primary purpose of
SafeFab.net is to be a business resource for our clients. We want you to feel
secure when visiting our site and are committed to maintaining your privacy
when doing so.
What
information do we gather?
Information
on SafeFab.net may be gathered in two ways: (1) indirectly (for example,
through our site's technology); and (2) directly (for example, when you provide
information on various pages of SafeFab.net).
One
example of information we collect indirectly is through our Internet access
logs. When you access SafeFab.net, your Internet address is automatically
collected and is placed in our Internet access logs.
We
collect information directly from you in a number of ways, some of which we
describe in this Privacy Statement. One way is through the use of cookies.
Cookies are small files of information which save and retrieve information
about your visit to SafeFab.net—for example, how you entered our site, how you
navigated through the site, and what information was of interest to you. The
cookies we use identify you merely as a number. (If you are uncomfortable
regarding cookies use, please keep in mind you can disable cookies on your
computer by changing the settings in preferences or options menu in your
browser.)
We
also collect information when you voluntarily submit it to us. Throughout our
site, we provide the opportunity to register for an event or conference, order
a white paper, participate in an online survey, or contact us directly. It is
completely up to you whether or not you want to provide it.
How
do we use this information?
We
analyze it to determine what is most effective about our site, to help us
identify ways to improve it, and eventually, to determine how we can tailor
SafeFab.net to make it more effective. We may also use data for other purposes,
which we would describe to you at the point we collect the information, or
simply to contact you at your request or distribute information that you have
requested.
Will
we share this with outside parties?
As
a global organization, data we collect may be transferred internationally
throughout SafeFab's worldwide organization. We will not sell individual
information and will share it only with our advisors and direct associates.
There will be other times when we need to share information, for example, in
the case of an event where we need to provide our caterer with meal preference
information. But again, before you submit any information, we will notify you
as to why we are asking for specific information and it is completely up to you
whether or not you want to provide it.
What
about sensitive personal data?
We
do not generally seek to collect sensitive personal data through this site. If
we do seek to collect such data, we will ask you to consent to our proposed
uses of the data. We may also collect some sensitive personal data
incidentally. By providing us with unsolicited sensitive personal data, you
consent to our using the data subject to applicable law as described in this
Privacy Statement. The references to "sensitive personal data" are to
the various categories of personal data identified by European and other data
privacy laws as requiring special treatment, including in some circumstances
the need to obtain explicit consent. These categories comprise personal
identity numbers, personal data about personality and private life, racial or
ethnic origin, nationality, political opinions, membership of political parties
or movements, religious, philosophical or other similar beliefs, membership of
a trade union or profession or trade association, physical or mental health,
genetic code, addictions, sexual life, property matters or criminal record
(including information about suspected criminal activities).
Do
we give you access to your information?
You
are entitled to know whether we hold information about you and, if we do, to
have access to that information and require it to be corrected if it is
inaccurate. You can do this by contacting us directly.
What
about data security?
We
take appropriate steps to maintain the security of your data on SafeFab.net.
You should understand that the open nature of the Internet is such that data
may flow over networks without security measures and may be accessed and used
by people other than those for whom the data is intended.
We
are interested in maintaining your privacy and creating a valuable resource for
you to use. If you have any questions now or during your visit, please contact
us.
