Effective: October 1, 2005
At DMCAR, we are fully committed to the protection and
security of any information you provide to us as our members and as
visitors to our website. We want you to know that we truly respect and
will protect your privacy, so you can enjoy using our services which allow
us to better serve your needs.
Our Privacy Policy discloses our approach to privacy
and how your personal information is collected and used. Your use of our
website constitutes your acceptance of this Privacy Policy and your
consent to the practices it describes.
What Information We Collect
Generally speaking, our website is informational. Your
"personally identifiable information", that is, information about you as
an individual which would permit someone to contact you, is only requested
by DMCAR in order for us to send you information such as our
newsletter, to enable us to provide search functionality and to provide
the various account management tools we offer to assist you in your
membership. We do not collect any personally identifiable information
unless you voluntarily provide it.
As is the case when you visit most websites, to
administer our site, your visit triggers the automatic logging of certain
anonymous information about your computer system such as the type of
browser you use, the server name and your "IP" (Internet Protocol)
address. When your web browser or email application requests a web page or
email from another computer using the Internet, it automatically gives
that computer your computer's "address" so it knows where it should send
the information. This is called your computer's "IP address." This
anonymous information does not contain any personally identifiable
information about you.
How We Protect Your Information
We protect the confidentiality and security of any
personal information we may have by using industry-recognized security
safeguards such as firewalls, coupled with carefully developed security
procedures to protect your information from loss, misuse or unauthorized
alteration. Our employees are trained and required to safeguard your
information and, using physical, electronic and procedural safeguards, we
restrict access to any sensitive personal information to those employees
and agents for business purposes only. Additionally, we use internal and
external resources to frequently review the adequacy of our security
procedures. You need to know, however, that due to the open communication
nature of the Internet we cannot guarantee that communication between you
and us, and between us and you, will be free from unauthorized access by
third parties nor can we be responsible for information stolen from our
servers by information harvesting software which may have the ability to
scrape data.
How We Use Your Information
When we ask you for information, we tell you, or it
will be clear, why we need any personally identifying information from you
either to fulfill a request from you or to provide information or services
to you.
We Do Not Sell Or Rent Your Personal Information
Aside from our own use of your personal information,
we do not share any personal information we may have about you with third
parties for promotional use without your consent. Also, you control what
marketing information you receive from us, by simply letting us know if
you wish to opt out and not receive information from us. We may, however,
have to disclose, transfer, sell or assign your information obtained
through this website, or otherwise in our possession, to a third party as
a result of a sale, merger, consolidation, change in control, transfer of
substantial assets, reorganization or liquidation of DMCAR. We may also
have to make information obtained through this website, or otherwise in
our possession, available to law enforcement personnel and agencies when
requested to do so or as required by law.
We Want To Provide Only Information You Want
At any time, you may let us know whether or not you
want to continue to receive information from us. If you do not wish to
receive information from us, you can specify your preference by emailing
us at
customercare@dmcar.com.
Cookie Technology
Cookie technology is employed when you access our
site. For DMCAR Property Database Xceligent users, it is part of the
authentication process when you enter your User Name and Password. For our
visitors it helps us keep track of the pages you visit while on our
website. "Cookies" are small text files sent by Web servers to be stored
on the computers of website users. These files often contain
personalization settings or unique identifiers to keep track of your
information and to help us understand the movements of users within and
between websites.
Privacy Statement Changes
We reserve the right to change or amend our Privacy
Policy to address new issues of privacy and information security and to
reflect changes to our website or business practices. Any new changes
and/or amendments will be noted on our Home Page and will always be posted
in this section of the DMCAR website.
