We will ask you when we need information that personally
identifies you (personal information) or allows us to
contact you to provide a service or carry out a transaction
that you have requested such as receiving information
about DeeCall.com products and services, entering a contest,
ordering e-mail newsletters, joining a limited-access
premium site or service, signing up for an event or training,
or when purchasing, downloading and/or registering DeeCall.com
products. The personal information we collect may include
your name, title, company or organization name, work e-mail,
work phone, work or home address, information about your
job function, information about your company, and credit
card information. The Site may collect certain information
about your visit, such as the name of the Internet service
provider and the Internet Protocol (IP) address through
which you access the Internet; the date and time you access
the Site; the pages that you access while at the Site
and the Internet address of the Web site from which you
linked directly to our site. This information is used
to help improve the site, analyze trends and administer
the site. Some of our sites collect information about
your hardware and software in order to provide a requested
service. Windows Update, for example, needs to know information
about your computer in order to recommend needed operating
system updates. DeeCall.com technical communities provide
opportunities to interact with DeeCall.com employees,
experts, and your peers in order to share knowledge and
news about DeeCall.com products and related technologies.
In order to avoid your e-mail address or other personal
information from being gathered and used by others for
inappropriate or harmful purposes, DeeCall.com advises
that you should be cautious about posting a real e-mail
address or other personal information to newsgroups, chats,
or other public forums. Use of your Personal
Information
The personal information collected on this Site will be
used to operate the Site and to provide the service(s)

use personal information to provide you with more effective

about other DeeCall.com products and services, and/or

Use of Session
We use cookies on this Site to ensure the integrity of
the registration process and to personalize the Site.
A cookie is a small text file that is placed on your hard
disk by a Web page server. Cookies cannot be used to run
programs or deliver viruses to your computer. Cookies
are uniquely assigned to you, and can only be read by
a Web server in the domain that issued the cookie to you.
One of the primary purposes of cookies is to provide a
convenience feature to save you time. For example, if
you personalize a web page, or navigate within a site,
a cookie helps the site to recall your specific information
on subsequent visits. This simplifies the process of delivering
relevant content, eases site navigation, and so on. When
you return to the Web site, the information you previously
provided can be retrieved, so you can easily use the site's
features that you customized. Web beacons, also known
as clear gif technology, or action tags, may be used to
assist in delivering the cookie on our site. This technology
is a tool we use to compile aggregated statistics about
DeeCall.com.com Web site usage, such as how many visitors
clicked on key elements (such as links or graphics) on
a DeeCall.com.com Web page, blog or a newsletter. We may
share aggregated site statistics with partner companies.
You have the ability to accept or decline cookies. Most
Web browsers automatically accept cookies, but you can
usually modify your browser setting to decline cookies
if you prefer. If you choose to decline cookies, you may
not be able to fully experience the interactive features
of this or other Web sites you visit. Use
of Web Beacons
DeeCall.com.com Web pages may contain electronic images
known as Web beacons - sometimes called single-pixel gifs
- that allow DeeCall.com.com to count users who have visited
those pages and to deliver co-branded services. DeeCall.com.com
may include Web beacons in promotional e-mail messages
or newsletters in order to determine whether messages
have been opened and acted upon. Some of these Web beacons
may be placed by third party service providers to help
determine the effectiveness of our advertising campaigns
or email communications. These Web beacons may be used
by these service providers to place a persistent cookie
on your computer. Doing this allows the service provider
to recognize your computer each time you visit certain
pages or emails and compile anonymous information in relation
to those page views. DeeCall.com.com prohibits Web beacons
from being used to collect or access your personal information.
Changes to this Statement
We may occasionally update this privacy statement. When
we do, we will also revise the "last updated" date at
the top of the privacy statement. For material changes
to this privacy statement, we will notify you either by
placing a prominent notice on the home page of our Web
site or by directly sending you a notification. We encourage
you to periodically review this privacy statement to stay
informed about how we are helping to protect the personal
information we collect. Your continued use of the service
constitutes your agreement to this privacy statement and
any updates. |
