Please read all of this Privacy & Security Policy carefully. By using the Website, you agree to the Website's Terms of Use as well as the terms of this Privacy & Security Policy.

We make all reasonable efforts to ensure our Website is secure and that we respect your right to privacy. We want every customer to feel as comfortable as possible visiting our Website and using its services. We are sensitive to the expectations of privacy by our Users and are committed to making sure your personal information remains confidential. Personal Information that you provide in the course of obtaining services from us will not be disclosed, sold, or otherwise transferred to unaffiliated third parties. Ultrasonics Depot reserves the right to amend the policies governing this Website by posting the amended terms on the Website and revisions to this policy be posted and noted by amended date coding of last revision made herein body of text; August 20, 2009.

Use of our Website without registering or submitting any Personal Information is allowable but in that case, the only information we collect will be non-personal information collected through the use of cookies (see details below). However, in order to have access to certain services, you are required to create an account and complete a registration form in order to access those Services and/or purchase some products.

Anonymous (or sometimes referred to as "aggregate") information is information that cannot be traced back to a specific individual. For example, we know how many times the Website and certain portions of the Website are visited, but we do not know the names, email addresses or gender of our Users unless our Users specifically provide that information through registration. We may use this anonymous information to obtain a better understanding of how Users interact within our Website and to make decisions on how to improve it. Each time a User comes to the Website, we collect some information in an effort to improve the overall quality of your online experience. We may at times collect the User's domain name (e.g. whether the user is logged on from yahoo.com, aol.com etc), referral data (e.g., the address of the last URL a user visited prior to clicking through to our website), and browser and platform type (e.g., a specific browser on a Macintosh platform). In addition to collecting these types of information, Ultrasonics Depot may collect aggregate queries for internal reporting. We may also count, track, and aggregate User activity into our analysis of general traffic flows at our site (e.g. tracking where traffic comes from, how traffic flows within our site, etc.). Your Personally identifiable information is information you provide that lets us know specific facts about you so that we can respond to your requests. Depending on the portion of the Website you visit and the information you provide, this information could range from your email address, name, physical address and ZIP code, which you provide in order to receive information from us about certain services, or more detailed Personal Information when buying products or subscribing to Services. Personal information collected on our Website is used only to allow us to fulfill your request for Services. For instance, if you enroll to receive newsletters, use our Website tools and calculators, register to open an account or purchase items from our online store, we collect personal information from you in order to complete transactions you request. We also may collect information you provide voluntarily through responses to surveys, questionnaires, and the like. The information you provide may be furnished to a third party in order to facilitate the transaction. In each case, we use your personal information only for the purpose it is submitted to us, which may include providing it to third parties with whom we have relationships to deliver the information or Services you request. If you chose to use an online service that asks for specific information (i.e., making an online purchase, subscribing to an e-newsletter or mailing list, personalizing the content of the Web site, sending an email, completing any online transaction, or submitting information within an online service) more detailed data will be collected. If you choose to submit information to us, it should be transmitted in a secure fashion to our internal databases. It is voluntary for you to engage in these activities. We may also use this information to send you emails with special promotions or newsletters with content that we think may be of interest to you. You can always opt-out of receiving such emails or unsubscribe to newsletters at the time you register or at any time. If you do not wish to conduct electronic business with us, our staff is available to assist you by phone. We also collect anonymous, non-personal information about your use of our site through the use of "Cookies," which are small computer files that we transfer to your computer's hard drive that allow us to know how often someone visits our site and the activities they conduct while on our site. Every computer may be assigned a different cookie by Ultrasonics Depot. The information collected by cookies may help us generate advertising and content on web pages specifically designed for you and also allows us to statistically monitor how many people are using our site and for what purpose. We may use cookie information to target certain advertisements to your browser or to determine the popularity of certain content. Your browser software can be set to reject all cookies. Most browsers offer instructions on how to reset the browser to reject cookies in the "Help" section of the toolbar. If you reject our cookie, certain functions and conveniences of our site may not work properly but you do not have to accept our cookie in order to productively use our site. While it may be possible to link non-personal cookie information to Personal Information collected in other ways, we want you to know that if you accept our cookie we will not, without your consent, link the cookie information we collect to Personal Information you provide to us on our site. 

Except as noted below or as agreed to by you, no Personal Information we gather from you on our Website will be disclosed. We may release Personal Information to third parties: (1) to comply with valid legal requirements such as a law, regulation, search warrant, subpoena or court order; or (2) in special cases, such as a physical threat to you or others. In the event that we are legally compelled to disclose your Personal Information to a third party, we will notify you unless doing so would violate the law or court order. Personal Information may be disclosed to its corporate subsidiaries and affiliates. All information provided to subsidiaries and affiliates will be treated by those subsidiaries and affiliates of Ultrasonics Depot in accordance with the terms of this Privacy Policy. We also may share this information you provide about yourself when placing an order on the Website Online Store with our affiliates, suppliers, partners and service providers to the extent necessary to process, bill, and ship your order. Be assured that your highly sensitive credit card information will be protected and secured by our on-line credit card services. Making sure your confidential information is secure is also an important responsibility for you. You’re responsible for ensuring your personal password remains secure, so you should not reveal your password to anyone. If at any time you believe an unauthorized person has gained access to it, you should change it immediately. As part of good security practices, you should change your password regularly and never walk away from your computer if you’re in the middle of a session. Always close a window when exiting a secure Site. You should also review our Terms of Use for more information. Non-personal information may be provided to third parties about you that does not allow you to be identified or contacted and that is combined with the non-personal information of other users. We do require third parties to whom we disclose Aggregate Information to agree that they will not attempt to make this information personally identifiable by combining it with other databases or otherwise. If you choose to link to one of these third party Websites, you should review the privacy policy posted on this other site to understand how that Third Party Website collects and uses your Personal Information.

 

You should be aware that it is not technologically possible to remove each and every record of the information you have provided. The need to back-up our systems to protect information from inadvertent loss means that a copy of your personal information may exist in a non-erasable form that will be difficult or impossible for us to locate. Nevertheless, we promise that upon receiving your request, all personal information stored in the databases we actively use for research and daily business activities, and other readily searchable media, will be deleted. You can always contact us in order to (1) delete your Personal Information from our systems, (2) update the Personal Information that you have provided to us, and (3) change your preferences with respect to marketing contacts or other activities, by emailing us at info@ultrasonicsdepot.com or mailing to our address in contacts page. Such changes will not have any effect on other information that is maintained.

Your Personal Information at Ultrasonics Depot is to remain as secure as possible. This is why we utilize leading technical safeguards and a code of conduct for employees that are permitted to access your Personal Information. Utilizing Secure Socket Layer (SSL) encryption technology in transmitting your personal information to our servers to help ensure the integrity and privacy of the Personal Information you provide to us via the Internet. This encryption involves systematically scrambling numbers and letters, so that even if someone managed to intercept the information, they would not be able to make sense of it. In order to take advantage of this encryption technology, you need to have an Internet browser that will support 128-bit encryption, such as Netscape or Microsoft Explorer. A limited number of employees are authorized to access your Personal Information. Employees must abide by our Privacy Policy. Although we will make every reasonable effort to protect your Personal Information from loss, misuse, or alteration by third parties, you should be aware that there is always some risk involved in transmitting information over the Internet. There is also some risk that thieves could find a way to corrupt our security systems.

While we take precautions to ensure your information remains confidential, you must keep in mind as you navigate through our Website that any message you may send through the Website or through email is not secure and may be susceptible to third party interception. As a result, you transmit information to us at your own risk. Select pages within our site, such as those dealing with e-commerce, may run in a secure-server environment. In locations like these, where our website asks you to enter sensitive information, that information is encrypted and is protected with the encryption software SSL. While on a secure page, the lock icon on the bottom of web browsers such as Netscape Navigator and Microsoft Internet Explorer becomes locked. You will be alerted to a secure page by a padlock icon on your browser and/or warning pop-up window.

All reasonable measures to secure your data on our servers. The data centers we use are both physically and electronically secured. Our servers are isolated from the Internet by using a firewall which is a hardware and software system that blocks access by unauthorized parties. Access to your account is controlled by a login ID and a password, which you chose. Strict login ID and password rules virtually eliminate the unauthorized user from gaining access. Ultrasonics Depot handles all of your Personal Information with respect to its confidentiality and privacy. We ask that you follow your Provider’s policy on communicating sensitive information in your relationship with them.

Your choices of privacy are strictly yours and when you complete the Registration to open an Account or update your profile, you will be given the option of receiving recurring informational/promotional emails from Ultrasonics Depot and/or third parties. You may opt out of receiving emails at Registration by removing the automatic check mark from the statement that expresses a preference for receiving these emails and newsletters. You may also opt out of receiving these emails and or newsletters at any time by changing your preferences within your profile.

This privacy statement applies only to the Ultrasonics Depot website. The site does contain links to other sites. Once you enter another website through a content link, be aware that Ultrasonics Depot is not responsible for the privacy practices of such other sites. We encourage you to look for and review the privacy statements of each and every web site that you visit through a link or advertisement on any website that collects Personal Information from you.
