Tandem Technologies recognize the importance of protecting your privacy and our
policy is designed to assist you in understanding how we collect, use and safeguard
the personal information you provide to us and to assist you in making informed
decisions when using our site. This policy will be continuously assessed against
new technologies, business practices and our customers’ needs.
What Information Do We Collect?
When you visit this web site you may provide us with two types of information: personal
information you knowingly choose to disclose that is collected on an individual
basis and Web site use information collected on an aggregate basis as you and others
browse our Web site.
1. Personal Information You Choose to Provide:
Registration Information
When you register for any of our products, services or newsletters you will provide
us information about yourself.
Email Information
If you choose to correspond with us through email, we may retain the content of
your email messages together with your email address and our responses. We provide
the same protections for these electronic communications that we employ in the maintenance
of information received by mail and telephone.
2. Web Site Use Information
Similar to other commercial Web sites, our Web site utilizes a standard technology
called “cookies” (see explanation below, “What Are Cookies?”) and web server log
files to collect information about how our Web site is used. Information gathered
through cookies and Web server logs may include the date and time of visits, the
pages viewed, time spent at our Web site, and the Web sites visited just before
and just after our Web site.
How Do We Use the Information That You Provide to Us?
Broadly speaking, Tandem Technologies use personal information for purposes of administering
our business activities, providing the products and services you requested , to
monitor the use of the service, our marketing and promotional efforts and improve
our content and service offerings, and customize our site’s content, layout, services
and for other lawful purposes. These uses improve our site and better tailor it
to meet your needs.
Personally identifiable information or business information will not be shared with
parties except as required by law.
Occasionally, we may also use the information we collect to notify you about important
changes to our Website, new services, and special offers we think you will find
valuable. You may notify us at any time if you do not wish to receive these offers
by emailing us at the link provided on the newsletter.
What Are Cookies?
A cookie is a very small text document, which often includes an anonymous unique
identifier. When you visit a Web site, that site’s computer asks your computer for
permission to store this file in a part of your hard drive specifically designated
for cookies. Each Web site can send its own cookie to your browser if your browser’s
preferences allow it, but (to protect your privacy) your browser only permits a
Web site to access the cookies it has already sent to you, not the cookies sent
to you by other sites. Browsers are usually set to accept cookies. However, if you
would prefer not to receive cookies, you may alter the configuration of your browser
to refuse cookies. If you choose to have your browser refuse cookies, it is possible
that some areas of our site will not function as effectively when viewed by the
users. A cookie cannot retrieve any other data from your hard drive or pass on computer
viruses.
How Do We Use Information We Collect from Cookies?
As you visit and browse our Web site, the site uses cookies to differentiate you
from other users. In some cases, we also use cookies to prevent you from having
to log in more than is necessary for security. Cookies, in conjunction with our
Web server’s log files, allow us to calculate the aggregate number of people visiting
our Web site and which parts of the site are most popular. This helps us gather
feedback to constantly improve our Web site and better serve our clients. Cookies
do not allow us to gather any personal information about you and we do not intentionally
store any personal information that your browser provided to us in your cookies.
IP Addresses
IP addresses are used by your computer every time you are connected to the Internet.
Your IP address is a number that is used by computers on the network to identify
your computer. IP addresses are automatically collected by our web server as part
of demographic and profile data known as traffic data so that data (such as the
Web pages you request) can be sent to you.
Sharing and Selling Information
Tandem Technologies do not share, sell, lend or lease any of the information that
uniquely identify a subscriber (such as email addresses or personal details) with
anyone except to the extent it is necessary to process transactions or provide services
that you have requested.
How Can You Access and Correct Your Information?
You may request access to all your personally identifiable information that we collect
online and maintain in our database by emailing us at the usual address.

Tandem Technologies are not responsible for the practices employed by Web sites
linked to or from our Web site or the information or content contained therein.
Often links to other Web sites are provided solely as pointers to information on
topics that may be useful to the users of our Web site.
Please remember that when you use a link to go from our Website to another web site,
our Privacy Policy is no longer in effect. Your browsing and interaction on any
other web site, including web sites, which have a link on our Website, is subject
to that Web site’s own rules and policies. Please read over those rules and policies
before proceeding.
