Data Collected from Registered Users
We need to collect Personal Information such as name, phone number, email address, state, and country in order for you to register for Services or to respond to your requests for information that you may submit to us through the Web Site. We use this information to process your requests, to administer the Services in which you have expressed interest, and to provide information to you relating to our Services. You may have the option to provide additional demographic information (such as job title, corporation affiliation, geographic location, or other data) through the Web Sites. We use this information to analyze interest in the Web Site and to improve the information we make available through the Web Sites.
We may send periodic email updates to registered users, providing information about related products or services. We provide the option not to receive these types of communications, as described below under "Choice and Opt-out." This paragraph applies to users of our TrustWatch service: Your Personal Information may be used in accordance with the applicable TrustWatch Toolbar License Agreement . Certain information including your IP address and information about the sites you visit will be transmitted to Alexa Internet, Inc., which will then become subject to Alexa's privacy policy (http://pages.alexa.com/help/privacy.html). Alexa aggregates and analyzes the information it collects to improve its web traffic analysis services and to prepare non-identifiable reports about aggregate web usage.

In such cases, we will send the referral a one-time email inviting him or her to visit our Web Site. We maintain this information for the sole purpose of sending this one-time email and for tracking the success of our referral program, but will not send further unsolicited communications.
We engage third party services such as TechTarget and KnowledgeStorm to identify potential users of our Services. These services employ their own mechanisms to enable individuals to opt out of email distribution lists.

Please be aware that we are not responsible for the privacy practices of such other sites that you may access from our Web Site.

Automated Web Site Tracking
When you visit one of our Web Sites, statistics about your visit are automatically collected.

This information may include how many people visit the Web Site, the user's Internet Protocol (IP) address, which pages are visited, from which domains our visitors come and which types of browsers these persons use. We use these statistics about your visit for aggregate, analytical purposes only, to help us improve the performance and effectiveness of our Web Site. We retain third party service providers, such as WebTrends (http://www.webtrends.com/), to provide these statistical analysis services. The techniques for collecting this information are described below:

We gather certain information automatically and store it in log files. This information includes IP addresses, browser type, internet service provider (ISP), referring/exit pages, operating system, date/time stamp, and clickstream data.

Unless we separately notify you, we do not link this automatically-collected data to Personal Information.

You may decline to accept cookies or may remove permanent cookies by following directions provided in your Internet browser's "help" file.
We use temporary cookies to help your browser navigate our Web Site, to determine which visitors reach our Web Site from sites of our business partners, and to record during a user's session that the user is properly authenticated. We use permanent cookies to recall your information to save you time in filling out forms and/or revisiting our Web Site and to determine which visitors to our Web Sites have visited them before and if so, for what purposes.
If you reject cookies, you may still generally access the informational material on our Web Sites, but you may be unable to obtain some of our Services or access some portions of our Web Sites.

Certificate Application Information
In order to issue digital certificates and provide our Services, we must collect and maintain Personal Information about prospective Certificate Holders.

This information may include name; corporate affiliation; job title; postal address; telephone numbers; email address; gender; date of birth; dates of employment; and driver's license, passport or other government-issued identification documents numbers. We use this information to document and verify the identities or persons to whom we issue certificates or provide Services. We require documentation establishing that certificate applicants have expressly consented to the use of their Personal Information in connection with our Services.

This information may include name; corporate affiliation; job title; postal address; years at address; telephone numbers; email address; state license status and license numbers; Dun & Bradstreet number; credit card and bank account number and related billing and payment information; and IP addresses. We use this information to administer our Services, contact you in connection with your account, and to provide information about the Services or other offerings that we believe may be of interest to you.

Customer Service
We may send Service-related announcements when we believe it is necessary to do so. For instance, if our Service is temporarily unavailable, we might send you an email. Generally, you may not opt-out of these communications, which are not promotional in nature. If you do not wish to receive them, you may terminate any Services that you receive from us. We will communicate with you in response to your inquiries, to provide the Services you request, and as we determine is necessary to manage your account. We will communicate with you by email, telephone, or postal mail, depending upon the nature and urgency of the matter.
We also provide a web-based form for submitting service-related questions to us. This form requests name, company name, email address, and phone number. This personal information is used to contact the submitter to respond to the service inquiry.

Supplementation of Information
In order to provide the Services, we may supplement the personal information you submitted to us with information from third party sources. For example, we may use the WHOIS database of Internet domain name registrants or may engage third party business information services (such as Dun & Bradstreet, Authentify, or ChoicePoint, among others) to obtain verified information about subscribers, to verify personal identification for certificate applicants, or to assess the continued eligibility or license status of certificate holders or subscribers. We use these sources only to verify information.

All information that you provide us that forms the content of a certificate will be "published" in a repository that can be accessed by third parties. No person should have any expectation of privacy in the contents of a certificate.

A certificate may be revoked or deactivated upon written request by the Subscriber on whose behalf the certificate is issued, in addition to the other bases for revocation provided through our certificate policies.

Security
We consider the protection of all personal information we receive from our Web Site visitors, Subscribers, Relying Parties, and Certificate Holders as a core responsibility. We have security measures in place to protect against the loss, misuse, and alteration of Personal Information. As with any transmission over the Internet, however, there is always some element of risk involved in sending personal information. In order to try to minimize this risk, we encrypt information that you submit to us electronically when submitting requests or ordering certificates.
We implement data security safeguards based upon generally accepted industry standards to protect your Personal Information from unauthorized access, use, disclosure, alteration, or loss. Nonetheless, no data security techniques are 100% effective, and we cannot guarantee its security.
