Active provides this Privacy Statement to make users aware of Active's privacy practices.
Users of the Active “Site” represent people that are of legal age to create binding and financial obligations. Our website(s) are targeted toward professional business people, and we do not knowingly request or collect personal information from children. You shouldn't provide information about children on our “Site”.
Active may collect two types of information from users of the “Site”: “personally identifiable information” (such as name, email address, postal address, telephone, birth date) and “aggregate information” (such as frequency of visits to “Site”, IP address, “Site” pages most frequently accessed, browser type). Personally identifiable information is any piece of information which can potentially be used to uniquely identify, contact, or locate a user of the “Site”. Aggregate information is non-personally identifiable/anonymous information about users of the “Site”. Aggregate information is used in a collective manner and no single person can be identified by that compiled information.
On the “Site”, users may from time to time be able to order products or services, and register to receive materials. Personally identifiable information collected on the “Site” includes contact and billing information, email address, postal address, telephone, fax, and transaction information.
In order to tailor Active's subsequent communications to users and continuously improve the “Site” products and services, Active may also ask users to provide information regarding their interests, demographics, experience with its products, and detailed contact preferences.
Active uses cookies on the “Site”. A cookie is a unique text file that may be used for data analysis, and enables a web site to tailor information presented to a user based on a user's browsing program. Active may use cookies to personalize a user's pages at a “Site”, to remember a user when the user registers for products or services, or to track visits to a “Site”. If a user does not want Active to deploy cookies in the user's browser, the user may set the browser to reject cookies or to notify the user when a web site tries to place cookies in the browser program. Rejecting cookies may affect a user's ability to use some of the products, features, functions, or services on the “Site”. Cookies do not contain personally identifiable information. A session cookie expires when you close your browser and is used to make it easier for you to navigate our website. A persistent cookie remains on your hard drive for an extended period of time. For security purposes, we will encrypt any usernames, passwords, and other user or member account-related data that we store in such cookies. In the case of sites and services that do not use a user or member ID, the cookie will contain a unique identifier. We may allow our authorized service providers to serve cookies from our “Site” to allow them to assist us in various activities, such as doing analysis and research on the effectiveness of our site, content and advertising.
Web beacons (also known as clear gifs, pixel tags or web bugs) are tiny graphics with a unique identifier, similar in function to cookies, and are used to track the online movements of web users or to access cookies. Unlike cookies which are stored on the user's computer hard drive, web beacons are embedded invisibly on the web pages (or in email) and are about the size of the period at the end of this sentence.
Web beacons may be used to deliver or communicate with cookies, to count users who have visited certain pages and to understand usage patterns.
Active web servers may automatically log aggregate information, such as a user's IP address, domain name, browser type, date and time of access, and other log file data. This information may be used to analyze trends or administer the “Site”. Log files do not contain personally identifiable information.
With respect to activedynamics.com, Active contracts with third party mirror providers, who deliver integrated communications services, including Internet access services, to deploy mirrors of downloads in order to make file downloading via Active's website faster and more convenient. Active does not sanction the capture and sharing of information through mirror providers of services.
Active may use the personally identifiable information a user submits for any purposes related to Active's business, including, but not limited to:
User names, identifications (“IDs”), and email addresses (as well as any additional information that a user may choose to post). Such personally identifiable information may be used by visitors of these pages to send unsolicited messages. Active is not responsible for any consequences which may occur from the use of personally identifiable information that a user chooses to submit to public pages.
A user makes the decision whether to proceed with any activity that requests personally identifiable information. If a user does not provide requested information, the user may not be able to complete certain transactions.
Users who use the personally identifiable information of other users agree to use such information only for:
With whom may Active share information?
Active will not sell, rent, or lease a user's personally identifiable information to others, except as described in this Privacy Statement. Unless Active has a user's permission or as required by law, Active will only share the personally identifiable information a user provides online with other entities that are part of the Active corporate family and/or outside service providers who may be used to ship products, process credit cards, provide technical support, handle order processing, or otherwise act on Active's behalf. These third parties are prohibited from using users' information for any other purpose, including their own marketing.
When Active uses third parties to assist in processing the “Site” users personally identifiable information, Active has agreements that they will comply with Active's privacy practices, and other appropriate confidentiality and security measures.
In certain instances, it may be necessary for Active to disclose a user's personally identifiable information without a user's permission to government officials or otherwise as required by legal obligations. Active may disclose such personally identifiable information when responding to subpoenas, court orders, or legal process, or to establish or exercise legal rights or defend against claims, including fraud or infringement investigations.
Data collected online may be combined with information a user provides through other means of communication, such as postal mail or third parties to further carry out the purposes described above under the heading “NOTICE, How Active uses the information collected regarding users”.
When users choose to provide Active with personally identifiable information, users consent to the transfer and storage of such information by Active servers in the United States.
In addition, Active reserves the right to share aggregate information collected from users of the “Site”, without prior notice, with entities that are part of the Active corporate family and unrelated third parties. As stated earlier, aggregate information is used in a collective manner and no single person can be identified by such compiled information.
Links to third party web sites on the “Site” are provided solely as a convenience to the user. When a user uses these links, the user leaves the “Site”. Active has not reviewed all of these third party sites, does not control, and is not responsible for, any of the third party sites, their content or privacy practices. Active does not endorse or make any representations about the third party sites, or any information, services, or products found on the sites. If a user decides to access any of the linked sites, Active encourages the user to read their privacy statements. The user accesses such sites at the user's own risk.
Should a user find inaccuracies in such user's information, or desire to close an account or view the personally identifiable information Active may have regarding the user, the user may contact Active through the communication methods described below, or when technically feasible, directly on the “Site”. Active will make commercially reasonable efforts to respond to requests for access within thirty (30) days of receiving requests. Active may decline to process user's access or update requests to their personally identifiable information if the requests require disproportionate technical effort, jeopardize the privacy of other users, or are impractical (for instance, requests concerning information residing on backup resources such as tapes and cloud resources).
To prevent unauthorized access or disclosure, maintain data accuracy, and ensure appropriate use of information, Active implements physical, electronic, and managerial procedures to safeguard and secure the information Active collects. Active uses encryption when collecting or transferring sensitive personally identifiable information.
Internal Active access to user's non-public personally identifiable information is restricted to Active's administrators and individuals on a need-to-know basis. These individuals are bound by confidentiality agreements.
In the event Active becomes aware that the security of the “Site” has been compromised or user’s personally identifiable information has been disclosed to unrelated third parties as a result of external activity, including but not limited to security attacks or fraud, Active reserves the right to take reasonable appropriate measures, including but not limited to, investigation and reporting, and notification to and cooperation with law enforcement authorities.
If Active becomes aware that a user’s personally identifiable information has been disclosed in a manner not permitted by this Privacy Statement, Active will make reasonable efforts to notify the affected user, as soon as reasonably possible and as required by law, of what information has been disclosed, to the extent that Active knows this information.
If a user has comments or questions about Active’s website privacy statement, please contact:
