intelligentmarktingsystems.net PRIVACY POLICY

At intelligentmarktingsystems.net, protecting your privacy is very important to us. Our goal is to treat the personal information you furnish us with the utmost respect, and in accordance with the Privacy Policy. This Privacy Policy is currently applicable only to our United States customers and visitors when they interact with our website. Please read on for details about our practices for handling and securing your personal information.

WHAT INFORMATION DO WE COLLECT? HOW DO WE USE IT?

Anonymous Browsing You can visit IMS on the World Wide Web without telling us who you are or revealing any information about yourself, including your e-mail address. In this case, our web servers collect the name of the domain you used to access the Internet (such as aol.com) and the web site you came from and visit next. This information is used by us and our business partners to measure the number of visits, average time spent, page views, and other statistics about visitors to our web site in general. We also use this data to monitor site performance and to make the site easier and more convenient to use. Personal Information Collection There are times when we may ask you for information about yourself to assist us in meeting your various needs, including:

  • Providing you with products or services you have requested.
  • Servicing your account.
  • Improving our services.
  • Developing and/or informing you of additional products or services that may be of interest.
In these cases, your browsing will no longer be anonymous to us. To provide these services, we may need to ask you directly to provide, among other things, your name, physical address, zip code, e-mail address, and phone number. Also, you may elect to apply online for one of our products or services, which may require us to gather additional information to determine your eligibility. Cookies If you are browsing, a cookie is used to help us measure the number of visits, average time spent, page views, and other statistics relating to our web site. This cookie, by itself, doesn't tell us your e-mail address or who you are. If you decide to register online with one of IMS’s business units, we may collect additional information to provide tailored offerings or content to you. In this case, we use Cookies to recognize you on subsequent visits and make your online experience more convenient.

SHARING OF INFORMATION AND CONSUMER CHOICE

When you provide information to us, we may share your information with our affiliated companies and third parties for the purpose of fulfilling your requests as well as offering you other products and services that may be of interest to you. When you submit personal information to us during your visit to intelligentmarktingsystems.net, we will let you know how you can prevent disclosure of this information to third parties for marketing purposes, if you so choose. We may also aggregate statistics that we gather about our customers, sales, traffic patterns, and services and provide these statistics to third parties; however, when we do, these statistics will not include any personal information that identifies individuals.

E-MAIL COMMUNICATION AND ONLINE SURVEYS

Occasionally, we will send you e-mail communications with information, which may be useful to you, including information about our products and services or about offering from affiliates or third parties. When you first provide us with your e-mail address, you will be given the option of not receiving any such e-mail if you choose. We will include instructions in our e-mail messages on how to unsubscribe if you later decide you do not want to receive any future e-mails. At times, we conduct online surveys to better understand the needs, profiles, and experience of our visitors. You will be given the option of not participating in such surveys.

HOW IS YOUR INFORMATION SECURED AND PROTECTED?

intelligentmarktingsystems.net uses encryption and authentication tools to protect your personal information. E-mails you send us are not necessarily secure when they are transmitted to us. If your communication is very sensitive or include highly confidential information, you may want to send it via regular mail instead. We instruct our employees with access to your information that it is to be used only in adherence with the principles set forth in this Privacy Policy and the laws applicable to each specific business. Employees who misuse customer information are subject to disciplinary action.

HOW DO YOU ACCESS AND UPDATE YOUR INFORMATION?

In some cases, you may want to update the information that you have provided to us. This may require you to use a unique user name and password (or "PIN"). Also, where the capability exists, you may request that we modify or delete information we have gathered during your visit.
