Syntext respects your right to privacy. A number of our services require you to register for an account or provide us with some personal information. Syntext is committed to protecting the privacy of its customers and visitors. Our practices concerning the collection and use of personal information on the www.syntext.com website or any other Syntext owned, operated, licensed or controlled website (collectively the “Sites”) are tailored to meet this objective.
We want you to be aware of how we handle your private information.
WHAT INFORMATION WE COLLECT
We may collect two types of information from users of the Sites:
-
Personally identifiable information - any piece of information (such as name, email address, postal address, telephone, birth date) which can potentially be used to uniquely identify, contact, or locate a user of the Sites.
On the Sites, users may register for an account to receive materials and order products or services. In order to continuously improve our Sites, products and services, we may also ask users to provide information about their interests and experience of using our products.
We do not collect personally identifiable information from you unless you provide it to us.
-
Aggregate information - non-personally identifiable information about users of the Sites (such as frequency of visits to the Sites, IP address, Site pages most frequently accessed, browser type) which is used in a collective manner and no single person can be identified by that compiled information.
We use information collected from our server log files, cookies and web beacons to get a better understanding of our visitors and customer base in order for us to enhance our Sites, products and services.
HOW WE USE THE COLLECTED INFORMATION
We only process personal information for the purposes described in this Privacy Policy. Such purposes include providing our products and services to users, analysis in order to enhance and improve our Sites, products and services, developing new products and services, and ensuring our network's technical functioning.
If we use any information in a manner different than the purpose for which it was collected, we will ask for your consent prior to such use.
HOW WE MAY SHARE THE COLLECTED INFORMATION
We shall not transfer, sell, rent, or lease a user’s personally identifiable information to others, except as described in this Privacy Policy.
We shall only share personally identifiable information with other companies or individuals outside of Syntext in the following limited cases:
-
We have your consent.
-
We share such information with our subsidiaries, affiliated companies or other trusted parties that act on our behalf for the purpose of processing personal information based on our instructions and in compliance with this Privacy Policy.
-
Disclosure of such information may be reasonably necessary without a user’s prior permission to satisfy any applicable law or governmental request, to detect, prevent, or otherwise address fraud, security or technical issues, or to protect against imminent harm to the rights or property of Syntext or its users as required or permitted by law.
In addition, we reserve the right to provide third parties with aggregate information which does not identify users individually without a prior notice.
Should Syntext become involved in a merger, acquisition, or any form of sale, we shall provide a notice before personal information becomes subject to a different privacy policy.
HOW WE STORE AND PROTECT THE COLLECTED INFORMATION
Internal access to the collected information is restricted to Syntext employees who are bound by confidentiality agreements and need to know that information in order to operate, develop or improve our services, and such information is released strictly on a need-to-know basis.
We take security measures to protect the collected information against unauthorized access, alteration, disclosure, misuse, loss, or destruction. These measures include storage and processing practices as well as physical and electronic safeguards. However, we do not guarantee that third party entities will never defeat the measures and we accept no liability for any unintentional disclosure.
DATA INTEGRITY
We depend on our users to correct their personal information whenever necessary. Should a user find inaccuracies in their information or wish to delete such data if it is not otherwise required to be retained by law or for legitimate business purposes, the user may contact us.
However, we may decline to process requests which are unreasonably repetitive, require disproportionate technical effort, jeopardize the privacy of others, or are impractical.
LINKS TO THIRD PARTY WEBSITES
The Syntext Sites may contain links to other websites. Our Privacy Policy applies solely to information collected by the Syntext Sites and does not apply to these third party websites.
OPT-OUT POLICY
Registered users have the opportunity to opt-out of receiving materials from us.
Syntext users who wish to avoid receiving future communications about our services and product information may contact us. Besides, we provide instructions on how to unsubscribe in each of our emails.
ENFORCEMENT
We regularly review our compliance with this Privacy Policy. Should we become aware that the security of the Sites has been compromised or that a user’s personally identifiable information has been disclosed to a third party in a way not permitted by this Privacy Policy, we reserve the right to take appropriate measures, including but not limited to investigation and cooperation with law enforcement authorities.
CHANGES TO THIS PRIVACY POLICY
We may change this Privacy Policy from time to time. Any changes to the Privacy Policy will be posted on this page and each version of the Privacy Policy will be identified by its effective date.
