C3 Business Solutions (“C3”) has adopted this privacy statement in order to ensure users of our commitment and dedication to privacy. The following privacy guidelines apply to the website “c3biz.com” (Site). Privacy is very important to us. We also understand that privacy is very important to you. This Privacy Statement tells you how we protect and use information that we gather through this Site.
By using this web site, you agree to the terms of the most recent version of this Privacy Statement. You may be subject to additional terms that may apply when you access particular services or materials on certain areas in the Site, or by following a link from the Site.
Introduction
The information we receive, and how we use it, depends on what you do when visiting the Site. We collect and use your non-personal information (information that is not identifiable to you personally) differently than your personal information.
What Is Non-personal Information?
Non-personal information is information we collect through the Site that does not identify you as an individual person. It may include information such as the following:
- the type of web browser software you use (for example, Firefox or Internet Explorer)
- the name of the domain from which you access the Internet
- the Internet address of the web site from which you linked directly to the Site
- the date and time you access the Site
- which pages you have visited on the Site
- personal information that has been de-identified
If you visit the Site to read or download information, we may collect certain non-personal information about you from your computer. This information is collected from your computer’s web browser. If you only read or download information on the Site, we do not collect or learn your name, e-mail address, home address, or other personal information about you. We may place a text file called a cookie in the browser files of your computer when you visit. The cookie may be stored on your computer’s hard drive. The information that we collect using cookies is non-personal information. US Government Information Bulletin (I-034) contains a good description of cookie technology at: http://www.ciac.org/ciac/bulletins/i-034.shtml. You are always free to decline our cookies if your browser permits, but some parts of the Site may not work properly for you if you do so. We will not allow third parties to place cookies on the Site.
What Does C3 Business Solutions Do with Non-personal Information?
Because non-personal information cannot identify you or be tied to you in any way, there are no restrictions on the ways that we can use or share non-personal information. We are always looking for ways to better serve you and improve the Site. We will use non-personal information from you to help us make the Site more useful to visitors. We also will use non-personal information for other business purposes. For example, we may use non-personal information or aggregate de-identified personal information to:
- create reports for internal use to develop programs, products, services or content
- customize the information or services that are of interest to you
- share it with or sell it to third parties
- provide aggregated “traffic statistics” and “response rates” to third parties
What Is Personal Information?
Personal information is information we collect through the Site that we can use to specifically identify you, such as your:
- name
- telephone number
- e-mail address
In some places on the Site you have the opportunity to send us personal information about yourself. For example, you may fill out a form to request information from C3.
You also may choose to allow us to personalize your visits to the Site, in which case we will ask you for certain personal information to make your visits to our Site more helpful to you.
When this information is combined with the non-personal information that we collect through cookies (described above), we will be able to tell that you have visited our Site before and can personalize your access to Site, for example, by telling you about new features that may be of interest to you.
