Microken Privacy Statement
Microken is committed to protecting your privacy. Microken reserves the right to
update the Microken Privacy Statement at any time without notice to you. The most
current version of the Microken Online Privacy Statement can be reviewed by clicking
on the "Privacy Statement" hypertext link located at the bottom of our Web pages.
This Microken Privacy Statement applies to data collected by Microken through its
Web sites and services, as well as its offline product support services.
Collection of Your Personal Information
In order to access some Microken services, you will be asked to sign in with an
e-mail address and password, which we refer to as your credentials. As part of creating
your credentials, you may also be requested to provide questions and secret answers,
which we use to help verify your identity and assist in resetting your password,
as well as an alternate email address. Some services may require added security,
and in these cases, you may be asked to create an additional security key. Finally,
a unique ID number will be assigned to your credentials which will be used to identify
your credentials and associated information.
We may ask you to provide personal information, such as your e-mail address, name,
home or work address or telephone number. We may also collect demographic information,
such as your ZIP code, age, gender, preferences, interests and favorites.
We may collect information about your visit, including the pages you view, the links
you click and other actions taken in connection with Microken sites and services.
We also collect certain standard information that your browser sends to every website
you visit, such as your IP address, browser type and language, access times and
referring Web site addresses.
Use of Your Personal Information
Microken collects and uses your personal information to operate and improve its
sites and deliver the services or carry out the transactions you have requested.
These uses may include providing you with more effective customer service; making
the sites or services easier to use by eliminating the need for you to repeatedly
enter the same information; performing research and analysis aimed at improving
our products, services and technologies; and displaying content and advertising
that are customized to your interests and preferences.
We also use your personal information to communicate with you. We may send certain
mandatory service communications such as welcome letters, billing reminders, information
on technical service issues, and security announcements. We may also occasionally
send you product surveys or promotional mailings to inform you of other products
or services available from Microken and its affiliates.
Sharing of Your Personal Information
Except as described in this statement, we will not disclose your personal information
outside of Microken.
We occasionally hire other companies to provide limited services on our behalf,
such as handling the processing and delivery of mailings, providing customer support,
hosting websites, processing transactions, or performing statistical analysis of
our services. Those companies will be permitted to obtain only the personal information
they need to deliver the service. They are required to maintain the confidentiality
of the information and are prohibited from using it for any other purpose.
We may access and/or disclose your personal information if we believe such action
is necessary to: (a) comply with the law or legal process served on Microken; (b)
protect and defend the rights or property of Microken (including the enforcement
of our agreements); or (c) act in urgent circumstances to protect the personal safety
of users of Microken services or members of the public.
Security of Your Personal Information
Microken is committed to protecting the security of your personal information. We
use a variety of security technologies and procedures to help protect your personal
information from unauthorized access, use, or disclosure.
If a password is used to help protect your accounts and personal information, it
is your responsibility to keep your password confidential. Do not share this information
with anyone. If you are sharing a computer with anyone you should always choose
to log out before leaving a site or service to protect access to your information
from subsequent users.
Changes to This Privacy Statement
We will occasionally update this privacy statement to reflect changes in our services
and customer feedback. When we post changes to this Statement, we will revise the
"last updated" date at the top of this statement. We encourage you to periodically
review this statement to be informed of how Microken is protecting your information.
