NetVertex is committed to safeguarding your privacy online. Please read the following statement to understand how your personal information
will be treated as you make full use of this web site. This site is owned and operated by NetVertex.
If you have any questions regarding our privacy statement, please feel free to contact us by e-mail at privacy@netvertex.com.
Voluntary Submission
NetVertex.com does not collect personally identifying information about any individual Web site user except when knowingly provided by such
individual. For example, we may ask you for information when you register for a contest or survey or to receive a newsletter. You always have
the option not to provide the information we request. If you choose not to provide the information we request, you can still visit most of the
Web site, but you may be unable to access certain options and services.
Cookies
A cookie is a data file that certain Web sites write to your computer's hard drive when you visit such sites. A cookie file can contain information,
such as a user identification code, that the site uses to track the pages you have visited. NetVertex.com uses cookies solely to
track user traffic patterns throughout the Web site. We use this data on an anonymous basis and we do not correlate this information with personal
data of any user.
Most Web site browsers automatically accept cookies, but you can usually change your browser settings to display a warning before accepting a cookie,
or to refuse all cookies. However, if you choose to disable the receipt of cookies from our Web site, you may not be able to use certain features of
the site.
Browser Level Information
NetVertex.com Web servers automatically collect information about a site user's IP address, browser type and referrer by reading this information
from the user's browser (information provided by every user's browser). This information is collected in a database and used--in an aggregated,
anonymous manner--in our internal analysis of traffic patterns within our Web site. This information is automatically logged by most Web sites.
Use of Information
Our primary goal in collecting user information is to enhance your experience on our Web site. To develop content targeted to your interests, we use
aggregated user information to determine which areas of our Web site users prefer based upon traffic to those areas. We do not track what individual
users read, but instead how well each page or content area performs overall.
NetVertex.com derives the majority of its revenue from advertising. In order to attract and retain advertisers we use the aggregated,
anonymous information that we gather (as well as information from third-party market researchers) to describe our services to partners and to assist
our advertisers and sponsors to better understand our audience. We do not disclose personally identifying information about our users to these parties.
NetVertex.com may also disclose information about our users when we believe, in good faith, that the disclosure is required by law.
When you are on an area of NetVertex.com and are asked for personal information, you are sharing that information with NetVertex and NetVertex.com
as well as business partners and vendors providing hosting and other services for NetVertex.com. If you do not want your information to be shared,
you can choose not to allow the transfer of your information by not using that particular service. These parties, as well as advertisers who contract
directly with a third-party service to serve their advertisements, may set their own cookies.
In addition, any personally identifiable information provided by our users as part of an advertiser promotion online may be provided directly to
advertisers.
Please be aware that NetVertex.com sponsors, advertisers or Web sites that have links on our site may collect personally identifiable
information about you. The information practices of those parties and Web sites linked to NetVertex.com are not covered by this privacy statement.
NetVertex.com users should also be aware that, when you voluntarily disclose personal information in chat areas or bulletin boards, that information
may be collected by others and may result in unsolicited messages from others.
Kids under 13: Do not send any information about yourself to us--including information such as your name, address, or e-mail address. We do not
knowingly collect personally identifiable information from children under 13. In the event that we learn we have collected any personal information
from a child under the age of 13 without verification of parental consent, we will delete that information from our database as quickly as possible.
E-Mail
NetVertex.com respects the privacy of its viewers and shall not disclose, distribute or rent its e-mail subscriber newsletter list to any third
party, nor shall it permit anyone else to do so. However, NetVertex does make available for rental its list of those registrants who have
expressly provided us with their permission to receive third party information and offers as part of their user profile.
