Privacy Policy

This website is owned and operated by Trace Systems Inc. We are committed to protecting the privacy of our visitors while they interact with the content on this site (the “Site”). This Privacy Policy applies to the Site only. It does not apply to other websites to which we link. Because we gather certain types of information about our users, we want you to understand what information we collect about you, how we collect it, how that information is used, and how you can control our disclosure of it. You agree that your use of the Site signifies your assent to this Privacy Policy. If you do not agree with this Privacy Policy, please do not use the Site.

I. Personally Identifiable Information

No personally identifiable information (i.e. name, address, telephone number, email) will be collected unless it is voluntarily submitted to us via a comment or an email address form. By submitting that information to us, you consent to the use and method of disclosure as described in this Privacy Policy.

Trace Systems Inc. only uses your personal information for the original purposes it was given. If you give us personally identifiable information, we will only use it as follows:

1. We may share your personal information with our agents, contractors, or partners in connection with services that these individuals or entities perform for, or with, Trace Systems Inc., such as sending email messages, managing data, hosting our databases, providing data processing services, or providing online consulting services. These agents, contractors or partners have entered into legal agreements with us whereby they are restricted from using this data in any way other than to provide services for Trace Systems Inc.

2. We retain the right to disclose collected information if required to do so by law or in exceptionally rare instances if acting on a good faith belief that such disclosure is necessary to protect national, state, or organizational security, or to respond to an emergency situation.

3. If you enter your email address in the “Contact” form or on a registration form, and complete the process to opt in to receive emails from our mailing list, we may contact you with updates on our ongoing activities or appeals for action. Each email will contain a link enabling you to unsubscribe from receiving future messages from the Trace Systems Inc. email list.

We do not solicit any personal information from children. If you are not 18 years of age or older, you are not authorized to use the Site. Parents should be aware that there are parental control tools available online that can be used to prevent children from submitting information online without parental permission or from accessing material that is harmful to minors.

We are committed to protecting the information we receive from you. We take appropriate security measures to protect your information against unauthorized access, unauthorized alteration, unauthorized disclosure, or improper destruction of data. To prevent unauthorized access, maintain data accuracy, and ensure the correct use of information, we maintain appropriate physical, electronic, and managerial procedures to safeguard and secure the information and data stored on our system. While no computer system is completely secure, we believe the measures we have implemented reduce the likelihood of security problems to a level appropriate to the type of data involved.

You will receive notice when your personally identifiable information might be provided to any third party for any reason other than as set forth in this Privacy Policy, and you will have an opportunity to request that we not share such information.
