Information We Collect by Automated Means

When you visit our website, we collect certain information by automated means, using technologies such as cookies, Web server logs and Web beacons.

Cookies are small text files that websites send to your computer or other Internet-connected device to uniquely identify your browser or to store information or settings in your browser.  Your browser may tell you how to be notified when you receive certain types of cookies and how to restrict or disable certain cookies.  Please note, however, that without cookies you may not be able to use all of the features of our website.

In conjunction with the gathering of information through cookies, our Web servers may log information such as your operating system type, browser type, domain, and other system settings, as well as the language your system uses and the country and time zone where your browser is located.  The Web server logs also may record information such as the address of the Web page that referred you to our site and the IP address of the device you use to connect to the Internet.

To control which Web servers collect information by automated means, we may place tags on our Web pages called "Web beacons", which are small files that link Web pages to particular Web servers and their cookies.

We use third-party web analytics services on this site, such as those of Google Analytics, Omniture and Meteor Solutions.  These service providers use cookies and web beacons to help us analyze how users use the site.  The information collected by the cookies and Web beacons (including your IP address) will be disclosed to these service providers, who use the information to evaluate your use of the website.

We may use the information collected through automated means for market research, data analytics and system administration purposes, such as to determine whether you've visited us before or are new to the site, and for compliance with our legal obligations, policies and procedures.

Information We Share

We may share personal information we collect on this website with our service providers who perform services on our behalf.  These service providers are not authorized by us to use or disclose the information except as necessary to perform services on our behalf or comply with legal requirements.

In addition, when you submit a question for Apolo, we may disclose to him your Username, city, state or province/territory and your question.  We also may publicly post your Username, city, state or province/territory and question online along with Apolo's response.  When you post a comment to the blog, we may publicly disclose your Username and your comment will be publicly viewable on our site.

We also may disclose information about you (i) if we are required or permitted to do so by law or legal process, (ii) to law enforcement authorities, or (iii) when we believe disclosure is necessary or appropriate to prevent physical harm or financial loss or in connection with an investigation of suspected or actual illegal activity.  We also reserve the right to transfer personal information we have about you in the event we sell or transfer all or a portion of our business or assets.  Should such a sale or transfer occur, we will use reasonable efforts to direct the transferee to use personal information you have provided to us in a manner that is consistent with our Privacy Notice.
