ONSTART.NET, Inc's policies and procedures for handling customer information have been created with the understanding that Internet technologies are still evolving and that Internet business methods are continuing to evolve to meet the needs and opportunities of the changing technologies. As a result, ONSTART's policies and procedures are subject to change. ONSTART does not sell, rent or otherwise disclose its mailing lists to third parties. ONSTART is committed to respecting and protecting the privacy of visitors to our web sites as well as the privacy of our Customers. For visitors, we've structured our web sites so that, in general, you can visit us on the web without identifying yourself or revealing any personal information. For Customers, once you choose to provide us personally identifiable information (any information by which you can be identified), you can be assured that it will only be used to support your customer relationship with ONSTART. In the course of serving its Customers, ONSTART acquires, stores and transmits Customer communications and information that Customers may regard as private or sensitive. Some of this information - such as the Customer's name, address, telephone number, and credit card data - is provided to ONSTART by its Customers in order to establish service. Other information - such as the Customer's account status, choice of services, and Customer logs - is created and maintained by ONSTART in the normal course of providing service. ONSTART also uses cookies, which are small pieces of information that a web site can store in a designated file on a user's computer for various reasons. For example, ONSTART uses cookies on the landing pages of products sold online which record the Customer information that is required on the order form. This information is then forwarded to an internal sales tracking database within ONSTART. In addition, ONSTART may store Customers' electronic mail and other communications as a necessary incident to the transmission and delivery of those communications. The information Customer’s provide may be used for the following general purposes: to fulfill your requests for products and services, improve our services, contact you, conduct research, and provide anonymous reporting for internal and external clients. Customer information may be disclosed in the following circumstances: In response to subpoenas, court orders, or legal process, or to establish or exercise our legal rights or defend against legal claims; when ONSTART believes it is necessary to share information in order to investigate, prevent, or take action regarding illegal activities, suspected fraud, situations involving potential threats to the physical safety of any person, violations of ONSTART’S user agreement, or as otherwise required by law; or if ONSTART is acquired by or merged with another company. In this event, ONSTART will notify you before information about you is transferred and becomes subject to a different privacy policy. Security ONSTART takes every precaution to protect our Customers’ and users’ information. When Customers and users submit sensitive information via the website, your information is protected both online and off-line. When our registration/order form asks users to enter sensitive information (such as credit card number and/or social security number), that information is encrypted and is protected with the best encryption software in the industry - SSL. While on a secure page, such as our order form, the lock icon on the bottom of Web browsers such as Netscape Navigator and Microsoft Internet Explorer becomes locked, as opposed to un-locked, or open, when you are just ‘surfing’. ONSTART will protect the confidentiality of its customers' information, account information and personal communications to the fullest extent possible and consistent with the law and the legitimate interests of ONSTART, its partners, its employees and other customers of ONSTART's services. To protect the loss, misuse, and alteration of information that is collected from customers, ONSTART has appropriate physical, electronic, and managerial procedures in place. OnStart reserves the right to send bulletins and other important information regarding our services at our discretion.
