privacy statement

Updated August 13, 2003

Insilicos is determined to be a fair business partner, and to respect the personal privacy of our customers and website users. We endeavor to conduct our business accordingly. This statement describes Insilicos' policy regarding personal information about individuals who visit our web pages.
If you have questions or concerns regarding this statement, contact customer support at info@insilicos.com.

information collection and use
Information Collection Insilicos is the sole owner of the information collected on insilicos.com. Insilicos collects information from our users at several different points on our website.
Registration To use some parts of this website, users must first complete a registration form. During registration, users provide contact information (such as name, organizational affiliation, and email address), and/or unique identifiers (such as username and password). We use this information to determine if users are authorized to have access to certain parts of this website, and to contact users about services on our site for which they have expressed interest. We sometimes offer users the opportunity, at their option, to provide demographic or other information.
Order We request information from customers on our order form. Customers must provide contact information (such as name, email, and shipping address), and financial information (such as a credit card number). This information is used for billing purposes and to fill customers' orders. If we have trouble processing an order, the information may be used to contact the customer regarding the order.
Cookies A cookie is a piece of data stored on the user's computer tied to information about the user. We use cookies to control access to restricted areas of the website and to improve the performance of certain functions of the website. By changing the settings of your browser, you may disable our website from creating cookies on your computer. If so, you are still allowed to use the website. However, some areas of the website may be inaccessible or may not provide their complete functionality if cookies are disabled.
Log Files Like most standard website servers, we use log files. This log typically includes information such as internet protocol (IP) addresses, browser type, internet service provider (ISP), referring/exit pages, platform type, date/time stamp, and number of clicks. This information is used to measure and improve the performance of the website, analyze trends, administer the website, determine typical usage patterns of the website, and gather broad demographic information for aggregate use.

communications from the website
When you register for a service or function of the site, we will usually send you a welcoming email, for example to verify your password and username.
Some restricted parts of this website are only available to purchasers of specific products and services. Prior to granting you access to such restricted parts, we will verify that you are (or are an authorized employee of) a purchaser of the appropriate products and services.
Special Offers and Updates Registrants will occasionally receive communications such as information on products, services, special deals, or a newsletter. Out of respect for the privacy of our users, we present the option to not receive these types of communications. See the Opt-out section, below.
Service Announcements On rare occasions, it is necessary to send out a strictly service-related announcement. For instance, if our service is temporarily suspended for maintenance we might send users an email. Generally, users may not opt-out of these communications, though they can deactivate their account. However, these communications are not promotional in nature.
Customer Service We communicate with users on a regular basis to provide requested services and to communicate regarding issues relating to their account, or products or services ordered.

sharing
Third Parties Except as provided below, we do not share personal information with third parties.
Legal Compliance We may disclose personal information when required by law wherein we have a good-faith belief that such action is necessary to comply with a current judicial proceeding, a court order, or legal process served on our website.
Third Party Intermediaries We provide necessary information to third-party intermediaries. For example, we use a shipping company to ship orders, and a credit card processing company to bill users for goods and services. These companies are not authorized by Insilicos to retain, share, store, or use personally identifiable information for any secondary purposes.
Business Transitions In the event Insilicos undergoes a business transition, such as a merger, being acquired by another company, or selling a portion of its assets, users' personal information will, in most instances, be part of the assets transferred. You will be notified via a prominent notice on our website (and also by email in most foreseeable circumstances) prior to a change in privacy policy as a result of a change of ownership or control of your personal information. If, as a result of the business transition your personally identifiable information will be used in a manner different from that stated at the time of collection, you will be given a choice consistent with our Notification Of Changes section, below.
Links This website contains links to other sites. However, this privacy statement applies solely to information collected by this website. Please be aware that Insilicos is not responsible for the privacy practices of such other sites. We encourage you to note when you leave our site and to read the privacy statements of each and every website to which you provide personally identifiable information.
Surveys and Contests From time-to-time, our site requests information from users via surveys or contests. Participation in these surveys or contests is voluntary and the user therefore has a choice whether or not to disclose information requested by the survey or contest. The requested information typically includes contact information (such as name and shipping address), and may include demographic information. Users' personally identifiable information is not shared with third parties unless we give notice in the contest or survey. Though we may use an intermediary to conduct these surveys or contests, the intermediary is not authorized by Insilicos to use users' personally identifiable information for any secondary purposes.
Security This website takes commercially reasonable precautions to protect our users' information. When you submit sensitive information via the website, this information is protected both online and off-line.
When our registration/order form asks users to enter certain sensitive information (such as a credit card number), that information is protected with encryption. We also protect user-information off-line. All of our users' information, not just the sensitive information mentioned above, is restricted in our offices. 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. If you have any questions about the security of our website, send email to info@insilicos.com
Normal Business Practices We engage in normal business practices. We retain typical business records on our customers, such as purchasing history. In many cases, we are required by law, accounting regulations, agreements with our banks, or our governance documents to retain this information for years or even indefinitely.
Credit Check We offer payment terms to some customers. To determine if a customer qualifies for payment terms, we use information such as name and tax ID to request a credit report, D&B report, or other report.

changes

Opt-out Users who no longer wish to receive our newsletter or promotional communications may opt out of receiving these communications by replying with "unsubscribe" in the subject line in the email, or by emailing us at info@insilicos.com.
Updating Personal Information If your personally identifiable information changes, if you no longer desire our services, or if your employer changes and you are no longer an appropriate contact for a customer relationship we have with your former employer, email info@insilicos.com. We will delete or deactivate personally identifiable information from our website records to the extent that it is practical to do so and to the extent we are permitted to do so by law, accounting regulations, agreements with our banks, and our governance documents.
Notification of Changes If we decide to change our privacy policy, we will post those changes to this privacy statement and other places we deem appropriate, so our users are always aware of what information we collect, how we use it, and under what circumstances, if any, we disclose it. We will use information in accordance with the privacy policy under which the information was collected.
If, however, we plan to use your personally identifiable information in a manner different from that stated at the time of collection, we will notify you via email. You may then request that we update or delete or deactivate your personally identifiable information as described above under Updating Personal Information.
