At BSS, the privacy of our customers is important to us. We are committed to
protecting the information we gather from our websites. We have created this
privacy policy in order to demonstrate our company's commitment to privacy.
The following discloses the information gathering and dissemination
practices for our Web site and our company. If you have questions about
BSS's privacy policy or if you feel that we are not abiding to the terms of
this privacy policy, please contact us.
Information Collection and Use
BSS may collect information from users at several different points on its
Web site and it is the sole owner of any information collected on this site.
We do not sell, share, or rent this information to others in ways different
from what is disclosed in this statement. The BSS Web site contains links to
other sites. BSS is not responsible for the privacy practices or the content
of Web sites that link to or from BSS.
Registration
and Contact Forms
In order to use some of our services, users must complete various forms on
our site. These forms require users to supply their contact information
(e.g., name and address). We use this contact information to respond to
users about the services for which they have inquired or to notify them of
special offers. It is optional for users to provide certain information
(such as organizational information), but we encourage users to provide this
information so that we can provide a more personalized experience on our web
site.
Cookies
A cookie is a piece of data stored on the user's hard drive containing
information about the user. BSS may use cookies to store visitors
preferences, record session information, such as items that consumers add to
their shopping cart, what pages users access or visit, and record past
activity in order to provide better service when returning to our site.
BSS
does not require users to accept cookies in order to enter or view the site.
However, if you reject cookies, you may not be able to access some parts of
our site. You can set your browser to reject cookies, or to notify you when
BSS or another company sends you a cookie. If you have questions about how
to change your browser's "cookie" settings, please contact the
software manufacturer.
Log
Files
We use your IP (Internet Provider) address to help diagnose problems with
our server, and to administer our Web site. Your IP address is used to help
identify you and your preferences. We use IP addresses to analyze trends and
gather broad demographic information for aggregate use. IP addresses are not
linked to personally identifiable information.
Data
Sharing
We do not give out, sell or rent visitors addresses, credit or debit card
information except where needed to deliver a product or service that a
visitor has ordered or to comply with valid legal process or in special
cases. We may occasionally share aggregated user demographic information
with our partners and advertisers. This is not linked to any personal
information that can identify an individual person.
Product
Registrations
BSS products do not normally collect any personal information from your
system. However, since certain products may require registration before they
are fully activated, this information may be passed from the product to our
web site for verification. This information is used only to verify that the
product has been legally purchased and registered, and is treated in full
accordance with this Privacy Policy. The information that may be submitted
includes the following:
-
The
unique identification code assigned to the product by BSS.
-
The
registration name provided by the end user to BSS when the product was
purchased and/or registered.
-
The
registration code provided by BSS to the end user when the product was
purchased and/or registered.
Security
BSS has security measures in place to protect the loss, misuse and
alteration of the information under our control. BSS takes every precaution
to protect our visitors' information. We also take precautions to protect
visitor information off-line. All of our visitor's information, not just the
sensitive information mentioned above, is restricted in our offices. Only
authorized employees who need the information to perform a specific job (for
example, our billing clerk or a customer service representative) are granted
access to personally identifiable information.
Correspondence
With Users
From time to time, we may send Web site and service announcement updates
that contain important information about the services on our Web site. In
addition, our Customer Service Department may, as the individual situation
warrants, communicate with users via telephone or email to provide them with
services they have requested or to follow-up on issues relating to their
account.
We
do not sell, rent or otherwise provide our registered users email addresses
to third parties. However we occasionally send postcards to our registered
visitors informing them of our new products, services, or special services.
Users who do not wish to receive this correspondence should send an email
specifying their request along with their name, email, and address to: contactus@bangaloresoftware.com
Public
Forums/Email Communication
This site does not currently make use of chat rooms, message boards, free
email and news groups to its visitors. If in the future we decide to offer
this functionality, please remember that any information that is disclosed
in these areas becomes public information and users should exercise caution
when disclosing personal information. BSS does not monitor the online
communication (including email) which take place on our site except to
comply with valid legal process, to protect the rights or property of BSS,
or for emergencies.
Note
To Parents
At BSS we are aware that many children may want to visit us on the internet.
Although we welcome browsing, we encourage children to receive permission
from their parents before submitting any personal information over the
internet. BSS believes parents should be responsible for supervising the
online activities of their children and taking into account various tools
that allow them to provide their children with a controlled, child-friendly
internet. These tools are designed to preclude children from releasing
personal information online without the permission of their parents.
Notification
Of Changes To This Privacy Policy
Our privacy policy is posted in the main section of our site. If at any
point we decide to use personally identifiable information in a manner
different from that stated at the time it was collected, we will update our
privacy policy and notify our registered users via email.
