We automatically collect certain non-personal information regarding users of the website, such as IP address, operating system, region and language as well as the date and time the website was accessed, what features or pages of the website are accessed or visited and the websites visited immediately before you visit parasiticsanalytics.com. This information is collected in order for us to analyze and improve the quality of our services and to develop aggregate statistics about our website use. This information is not linked to you as an identifiable individual. Please go to "Cookies, Web Beacons and Tracking" below for more information. 

Parasitics LLC collects personal information when you: create an account on our website; register to attend a seminar, webinar, participate in an online survey or access a whitepaper, ask to be included in an email, newsletter or other mailing list; submit an entry for a contest or promotion; purchase a product or service from our online store, ask to contact our sales team directly; attend an investor event or trade show and provide your personal information to us; or submit your personal information to Parasitics LLC for any other reason. From time to time, Parasitics LLC receives personal information from business partners, vendors and distributors. Parasitics LLC uses personal information in accordance with this Privacy Statement and applicable laws. 

Access to certain Parasitics LLC web pages requires a login and a password. The use of those web pages, and the information or programs downloadable from those sites, may be governed by a written agreement between your employer and Parasitics LLC. Unless you request deletion of your personal information as specified below, your personal information may be retained by Parasitics LLC to verify compliance with the agreement, log software licenses granted, track software downloaded from those pages, or track usage of other applications available on those pages. 

When ordering a product from the Online Store, we need to know your first and last name, billing and shipping addresses, company name, telephone number, email address, and credit card information in order to process and ship your order. 

Cookies and Other Tracking Technologies

Parasitics LLC may use non-identifiable information collected from visits to our web sites to help us provide better customer service. Parasitics LLC tracks website usage and measures web activity on Parasitics LLC websites, but we do so in ways that keep the information non-identifiable. This information is sometimes known as "click stream data." Note that information is only gathered while you are on Parasitics LLC websites. Parasitics LLC automatically receives such information from your browser and records it on our server logs. We use this data to analyze trends and statistics and to help us provide better customer service. 

Like many other commercial websites, we use a standard technology called a "cookie" to collect information about how you use the site. A cookie is a small data file that certain sites write to your hard drive when you visit them. A cookie file can contain information such as a user ID that the site uses to track the pages you have visited, but the only personal information a cookie can contain is information you supply yourself. A cookie can't read data off your hard disk or read cookie files created by other sites. Some parts of Parasitics LLC websites use cookies to track user traffic patterns. We do this in order to determine the usefulness of our website information to our users and to help users reach that information. This information is not reviewed at an individual level. If you do not want your transaction details used in this manner you can disable your cookies. 

Parasitics LLC websites may also use Web beacon or other technologies to better tailor those sites to provide better customer service. These technologies may be in use on a number of pages across our websites. When a visitor accesses these pages, a non-identifiable notice of that visit is generated which may be processed by us. These Web beacons usually work in conjunction with cookies. You can set your browser to warn you before accepting cookies and refuse the cookie when your browser alerts you to its presence. You can also refuse all cookies by disabling them in your browser; although you may not be able to take full advantage of Parasitics LLC websites if you do so. In particular, you may be required to accept cookies in order to complete certain actions on our websites. You do not need to have cookies turned on, however, to use/navigate through many parts of our website. We recommend keeping cookies enabled to experience the full capabilities of our website. 

We use Google Analytics remarketing codes to log when web visitors view specific pages or take specific actions on our website. This allows us to provide targeted online advertising in the future. If you do not wish to see this type of advertising from us, you can opt out using the DoubleClick opt-out page or the Network Advertising Initiative opt-out page.

Merger and Acquisitions

Circumstances may arise where, whether for strategic or other business reasons, Parasitics LLC decides to sell, buy, merge or otherwise reorganize businesses in some countries. Such a transaction may involve the disclosure of personal information to prospective or actual purchasers, or receiving it from sellers. It is Parasitics LLC's practice to seek appropriate protection for information in these types of transactions.

Information Sharing and Disclosure

If you choose to provide us with your personal information, we may transfer that information, within Parasitics LLC or to third parties as provided for in this privacy statement. 

Parasitics LLC provides access to personal information about our customers only to those employees, contractors and agents who require it as part of their job in order to process customer payments and provide customer service. Parasitics LLC currently collects, stores and processes your personal information on servers located in the USA, but because of the global nature of Parasitics LLC’s business, your personal information may be accessed outside of the USA by authorized personnel who will then use and disclose your personal information in accordance with this privacy statement. 

Parasitics LLC may transfer personal information to outside agents or service providers ("Service Providers") that perform services on Parasitics LLC’s behalf, for example repair services, technical support, mailing, billing, marketing, information technology and/or data hosting or processing services or similar services, or otherwise collect, use, disclose, store or process personal information on Parasitics LLC’s behalf for the purposes described in this privacy statement. Some of these service providers could be located outside of the USA. 

Parasitics LLC takes commercially reasonable contractual or other measures to protect your personal information if processed or handled by these Service Providers. While your personal information is located outside the USA it will be subject to the legal requirements in those foreign countries applicable to our service providers, for example, lawful requirements to disclose personal information to government authorities in those countries. 

Parasitics LLC may send your personal information to other companies or people as expressly set out in this Privacy Statement or under any of the following circumstances: when we have your consent to share the information; when we need to share your information to provide the product or service you have requested (such as sharing information with your preferred distributor); when we need to send the information to companies who work on behalf of Parasitics LLC to provide a product or service to you (we will only provide those companies the information they need to deliver the service, and they are prohibited from using that information for any other purpose); or if required to do so by law, to enforce our Terms of Use, in urgent circumstances, or to protect personal safety, the public or our websites. 

Your Ability to Access, Review and Delete Your Account and Information

If you are receiving marketing materials it is because you have “signed up” on our websites for an account or with a sales representative to receive information from us. By opting in at the point of collection [by clicking the applicable opt in boxes] you have given us your consent to collect, use and disclose your information in accordance with this privacy statement. 

You may make a request to gain access to your personal information under Parasitics LLC’s care or control. Such requests must be in writing and require proof of identity. Parasitics LLC may charge you a minimal fee for providing you with access to your personal information. Parasitics LLC will respond to your request within thirty (30) business days, and will give you written notice if more time is needed or if your request is refused under applicable law. 

If you are a registered Parasitics LLC account user, you may request an update to or deletion of your personal information held by us by sending an email to: privacy@parasiticsanalytics.com. If you want to unsubscribe from any of our email communications or other publications, please follow the unsubscribe instructions at the bottom of each publication you receive by email.
