Privacy Policy
Welcome to www.autocontrol.com
This site is owned by Auto Control Medical Inc. This Privacy Policy
is designed to tell you about our practices regarding collection,
use, and disclosure of information that you may provide via this
site. Please be sure to read this entire Privacy Policy before using
or submitting information to this site. This site is intended for
use by residents of Canada.
Your Consent
By using this site, you agree with the terms of this Privacy Policy.
Whenever you submit information via this site, you consent to the
collection, use, and disclosure of that information in accordance
with this Privacy Policy.
About Children
This site is not intended for children under the age of 13. We will
not knowingly collect information from site visitors in this age
group. We encourage parents to talk to their children about their
use of the Internet and the information they disclose to Web sites.
Information Collection
Like many Web sites, this site actively collects information from
its visitors both by asking you specific questions and by permitting
you to communicate directly with us via e-mail, feedback forms,
and/or chat rooms. Some of the information that you submit may be
personally identifiable information (that is, information that can
be uniquely identified with you, such as your full name, address,
e-mail address, phone number, and so on).
Some areas of this site may require you to submit information in
order for you to benefit from the specified features (such as newsletter
subscriptions, tips/pointers, order processing) or to participate
in a particular activity (such as sweepstakes or other promotions).
You will be informed at each information collection point what information
is required and what information is optional.
Passive Information Collection
As you navigate through a Web site, certain information can be passively
collected (that is, gathered without your actively providing the
information) using various technologies and means, such as Internet
Protocol addresses, cookies, Internet tags, and navigational data
collection.
This site may use Internet Protocol (IP) addresses. An IP Address
is a number assigned to your computer by your Internet service provider
so you can access the Internet and is generally considered to be
non-personally identifiable information, because in most cases an
IP address is dynamic (changing each time you connect to the Internet),
rather than static (unique to a particular user's computer). We
use your IP address to diagnose problems with our server, report
aggregate information, determine the fastest route for your computer
to use in connecting to our site, and administer and improve the
site.
A "cookie" is a bit of information that a Web site sends
to your Web browser that helps the site remember information about
you and your preferences. We do not use "cookies" at this
site.
"Navigational data" ("log files," "server
logs," and "clickstream" data) are used for system
management, to improve the content of the site, market research
purposes, and to communicate information to visitors. This site
uses navigational data.
Use and Disclosure of Information
Except as otherwise stated, we may use your information to improve
the content of our site, to customize the site to your preferences,
to communicate information to you (if you have requested it), for
our marketing and research purposes, and for the purposes specified
in this Privacy Policy.
If you provide personally identifiable information to this site,
we may combine such information with other actively collected information
unless we specify otherwise at the point of collection. We will
take reasonable measures to prevent personally identifiable information
from being combined with passively collected information, unless
you consent otherwise.
We may disclose your personally identifiable information to other
Auto Control Medical affiliates worldwide that agree to treat it
in accordance with this Privacy Policy. In addition, we may disclose
your personally identifiable information to third parties, located
in Canada and/or any other country, but only to contractors we use
to support our business (e.g., fulfillment services, technical support,
delivery services, and financial institutions), in which case we
will require such third parties to agree to treat it in accordance
with this Privacy Policy; in connection with the sale, assignment,
or other transfer of the business of this site to which the information
relates, in which case we will require any such buyer to agree to
treat it in accordance with this Privacy Policy; or where required
by applicable laws, court orders, or government regulations. In
addition, we will make full use of all information acquired through
this site that is not in personally identifiable form.
Access and Correction
If you wish to update, correct or remove personally identifiable
information in our possession that you have previously submitted
via this site, please contact us as specified below.
Security
We take reasonable steps to protect your personally identifiable
information as you transmit your information from your computer
to our site and to protect such information from loss, misuse, and
unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, or destruction. You
should keep in mind that no Internet transmission is ever 100% secure
or error-free. In particular, e-mail sent to or from this site may
not be secure, and you should therefore take special care in deciding
what information you send to us via e-mail. Moreover, where you
use passwords, ID numbers, or other special access features on this
site, it is your responsibility to safeguard them.
Links to Other Web Sites
This site may contain links or references to other Web sites. Please
be aware that we do not control other Web sites and that, in any
case, this Privacy Policy does not apply to those Web sites. We
encourage you to read the privacy policy of every Web site you visit.
Other Terms
Your use of this site is subject to our Copyright
& legal notice.
