Privacy Statement
TECHSICO is committed to protecting your privacy and developing technology
that gives you the most powerful and safe online experience. This Statement of
Privacy applies to the TECHSICO Web site and governs data collection and usage.
By using the TECHSICO website, you consent to the data practices described in
this statement.
Collection of your Personal Information
TECHSICO collects personally identifiable information, such as your e-mail address,
name, home or work address or telephone number. TECHSICO also collects anonymous
demographic information, which is not unique to you, such as your ZIP code, age, gender,
preferences, interests and favorites.
There is also information about your computer hardware and software that is automatically
collected by TECHSICO. This information can include: your IP address, browser type,
domain names, access times and referring Web site addresses. This information is used by
TECHSICO for the operation of the service, to maintain quality of the service, and to
provide general statistics regarding use of the TECHSICO Web site.
Please keep in mind that if you directly disclose personally identifiable information or
personally sensitive data through TECHSICO public message boards, this information may be
collected and used by others. Note: TECHSICO does not read any of your private online
communications.
TECHSICO encourages you to review the privacy statements of Web sites you choose to link
to from TECHSICO so that you can understand how those Web sites collect, use and share your
information. TECHSICO is not responsible for the privacy statements or other content on Web
sites outside of the TECHSICO and TECHSICO family of Web sites.
Use of your Personal Information
TECHSICO collects and uses your personal information to operate the TECHSICO Web site and
deliver the services you have requested. TECHSICO also uses your personally identifiable
information to inform you of other products or services available from TECHSICO and its
affiliates. TECHSICO may also contact you via surveys to conduct research about your opinion
of current services or of potential new services that may be offered.
TECHSICO does not sell, rent or lease its customer lists to third parties. TECHSICO may,
from time to time, contact you on behalf of external business partners about a particular offering
that may be of interest to you. In those cases, your unique personally identifiable information
(e-mail, name, address, telephone number) is not transferred to the third party. In addition,
TECHSICO may share data with trusted partners to help us perform statistical analysis, send
you email or postal mail, provide customer support, or arrange for deliveries. All such third
parties are prohibited from using your personal information except to provide these services
to TECHSICO, and they are required to maintain the confidentiality of your information.
TECHSICO does not use or disclose sensitive personal information, such as race, religion,
or political affiliations, without your explicit consent.
TECHSICO keeps track of the Web sites and pages our customers visit within TECHSICO,
in order to determine what TECHSICO services are the most popular. This data is used to
deliver customized content and advertising within TECHSICO to customers whose behavior indicates
that they are interested in a particular subject area.
TECHSICO Web sites will disclose your personal information, without notice, only if
required to do so by law or in the good faith belief that such action is necessary to: (a) conform
to the edicts of the law or comply with legal process served on TECHSICO or the site; (b)
protect and defend the rights or property of TECHSICO; and, (c) act under exigent circumstances
to protect the personal safety of users of TECHSICO, or the public.
Use of Cookies
The TECHSICO Web site use "cookies" to help you personalize your online experience. A cookie is a
text file that is placed on your hard disk by a Web page server. Cookies cannot be used to run programs
or deliver viruses to your computer. Cookies are uniquely assigned to you, and can only be read by a web
server in the domain that issued the cookie to you.
One of the primary purposes of cookies is to provide a convenience feature to save you time. The
purpose of a cookie is to tell the Web server that you have returned to a specific page. For example,
if you personalize TECHSICO pages, or register with TECHSICO site or services, a cookie helps
TECHSICO to recall your specific information on subsequent visits. This simplifies the process of
recording your personal information, such as billing addresses, shipping addresses, and so on. When
you return to the same TECHSICO Web site, the information you previously provided can be retrieved,
so you can easily use the TECHSICO features that you customized.
You have the ability to accept or decline cookies. Most Web browsers automatically accept cookies,
but you can usually modify your browser setting to decline cookies if you prefer. If you choose to
decline cookies, you may not be able to fully experience the interactive features of the TECHSICO
services or Web sites you visit.
Security of your Personal Information
TECHSICO secures your personal information from unauthorized access, use or disclosure.
TECHSICO secures the personally identifiable information you provide on computer servers in a
controlled, secure environment, protected from unauthorized access, use or disclosure. When personal
information (such as a credit card number) is transmitted to other Web sites, it is protected through
the use of encryption, such as the Secure Socket Layer (SSL) protocol.
Changes to this Statement
TECHSICO will occasionally update this Statement of Privacy to reflect company and customer feedback.
TECHSICO encourages you to periodically review this Statement to be informed of how TECHSICO is
protecting your information.

TECHSICO welcomes your comments regarding this Statement of Privacy. If you believe that TECHSICO
has not adhered to this Statement, please contact TECHSICO from the Contact Us page. We will use
