Information Collection and Use
Information Collection
Versaic is the sole owner of the information collected on www.versaic.com. Versaic collects information from our users at several different points on our Web site.
Registration
In order to use this Web site, a user must first complete the registration form. During registration a user is required to give contact information (such as name and contact information) and unique identifiers (such as username and password). We use this information to contact the user with account information and, if necessary for technical support or other usage we may deem necessary for you to effectively utilize the system. It is optional for the user to provide some information (such as income level and gender), but encouraged so we can provide a more personalized experience on our site.
Submission & Registration
We request information from the user via forms and other data input mechanisms. A user usually must provide contact information (such as name, email, and address) and other information specific to the submission as specified by our clients.
Information Use
Versaic uses the information provided to organize and present to our corporate clients. By use of this site, you are authorizing our clients to use this information and, if necessary, share the information with its business partners, agencies, affiliated companies and/or its franchisees.
Cookies
A cookie is a piece of data stored on the user’s computer tied to information about the user. (Usage of a cookie is in no way linked to any personally identifiable information while on our site.) We may use both/one of session ID cookies and/or persistent cookies. For the session ID cookie, once users close the browser, the cookie simply terminates. At this time Versaic does not use any persistent cookies.
Log Files
Like most standard Web site servers we use log files. This includes internet protocol (IP) addresses, browser type, internet service provider (ISP), referring/exit pages, platform type, date/time stamp, and number of clicks to analyze trends, administer the site, track user’s movement in the aggregate, and gather broad demographic information for aggregate use. IP addresses, etc. are not linked to personally identifiable information.
Communications from the Site
Special Offers and Updates
We send all new users a welcoming email to verify password and username. Established users may occasionally receive information on services we provide. Out of respect for the privacy of our users we present the option to not receive these types of communications. Please see the Choice and Opt-out sections.
Service Announcements
On rare occasions it is necessary to send out a strictly service related announcement. For instance, if our service is temporarily suspended for maintenance we might send users an email. Generally, users may not opt-out of these communications, though they can deactivate their account. However, these communications are not promotional in nature.
Customer Service
We communicate with users on a regular basis to provide requested services and in regards to issues relating to their account we reply via email or phone, in accordance with the users’ wishes.
Sharing
Legal Disclaimer
Though we make every effort to preserve user privacy, we may need to disclose personal information when required by law wherein we have a good-faith belief that such action is necessary to comply with a current judicial proceeding, a court order or legal process served on our Web site.
Aggregate Information (non-personally identifiable)
We share aggregated demographic information with our partners. It is our practice to share information with our business and marketing partners that could help better inform them on trends and opportunities. Such information is not linked to any personally identifiable information.
These are the instances in which we will share users’ personal information:
We share information you enter to our corporate clients to whom you’ve submitted your information.
Third Party Intermediaries
We may use an information verification processing company to check the validity of certain data that is entered. These companies do not retain, share, store or use personally identifiable information for any secondary purposes.
Service Providers
We may partner with third parties to provide specific services (for example, emailing service to users). We provide information that is necessary for the third party to provide these services. These third parties are not allowed to use or retain personally identifiable information except for the purpose of providing these services.
Business Transitions
In the event Versaic goes through a business transition, such as a merger, being acquired by another company, or selling a portion of its assets, users’ personal information will, in most instances, be part of the assets transferred. Users will be notified via email prior to a change of ownership or control of their personal information. If as a result of the business transition, the users’ personally identifiable information will be used in a manner different from that stated at the time of collection they will be given choice consistent with our notification of changes section.
Choice/Opt-out
Our users are given the opportunity to opt-out of having their information used for purposes not directly related to our site at the point where we ask for information and/or after receiving an initial communication.
Users of our site are always notified when their information is being collected by any outside parties. We do this so our users can make an informed choice as to whether or not they should proceed with services that require an outside party.
Links
This Web site contains links to other sites. Please be aware that we, Versaic, are not responsible for the privacy practices of such other sites. We encourage our users to be aware when they leave our site and to read the privacy statements of each and every Web site that collects personally identifiable information. This privacy statement applies solely to information collected by this Web site.
Security
This Web site takes every precaution to protect our users’ information. When users submit sensitive information via the Web site, their information is protected both online and off-line.
When our registration/order form asks users to enter sensitive information (such as credit card number and/or social security number), that information is encrypted and is protected with the best encryption protocol in the industry - SSL. While on a secure page the lock icon on the bottom of someWeb browsers becomes locked, as opposed to unlocked, or open, when users are just surfing.
While we use SSL encryption to protect sensitive information online, we also do everything in our power to protect user-information off-line. All of our users’ information, not just the sensitive information mentioned above, is restricted in our offices. Only employees who need the information to perform a specific job (for example, our billing clerk or a customer service representative) are granted access to personally identifiable information.
If users have any questions about the security at our Web site, users can send an email to privacy@versaic.com.
Correcting/Updating/Deleting/Deactivating Personal Information
If a user’s personally identifiable information changes (such as zip code, phone, email or postal address), or if a user no longer desires our service, we provide a way to correct, update or delete/deactivate users’ personally identifiable information. This can usually be done by logging in at our website at www.versaic.com.
Notification of Changes
If we decide to change our privacy policy, we will post those changes to this privacy statement, the homepage, and other places we deem appropriate so our users are always aware of what information we collect, how we use it, and under what circumstances, if any, we disclose it. We will use information in accordance with the privacy policy under which the information was collected.
If, however, we are going to use users’ personally identifiable information in a manner different from that stated at the time of collection we will notify users via email. Users will have a choice as to whether or not we use their information in this different manner. However, if users have opted out of all communication with the site, or deleted/deactivated their account, then they will not be contacted, nor will their personal information be used in this new manner. In addition, if we make any material changes in our privacy practices that do not affect user information already stored in our database, we will post a prominent notice on our Web site notifying users of the change. In some cases where we post a notice we will also email users, who have opted to receive communications from us, notifying them of the changes in our privacy practices.
