Thank you for visiting Ampacet Corporation’s internet website, www.ampacet.com. We hope you were able to find information of interest to you about our company. Ampacet Corporation and its subsidiaries (“Ampacet”) are committed to comply with its internet privacy policy and applicable law to maintain the privacy of your personal information collected at this website. We encourage you to read this privacy statement carefully. Unless you have “opted out” of receiving direct marketing contacts (as described below), when you provide any of the information described in this Privacy Statement (including information that may be automatically generated), you consent to the use and disclosure of that information as described by this statement.
A. The Information We Collect
Ampacet may collect the following types of information from you at this website:
1. Automatically Collected Information
In general, you can visit Ampacet’s website without telling us who you are or revealing any information about yourself, including e-mail address. In these instances, we may passively collect information that is automatically sent to us by your web browser or your internet service provider. This information typically includes your domain name, your user name, and your numerical IP address. The amount of information sent by your web browser depends on its settings. Please refer to your browser if you want to learn what information it sends. We use this type of information to see which web pages you visit at our website, which website you visited before coming to our website, and where you go after you leave our website. We can then develop statistics that help us understand how our visitors use our website and how we can improve it.
2. Cookie Generated Information
Ampacet may actively obtain information about you by installing a marker on your computer commonly called a "cookie." Cookies enable us to know you by a computer-generated, unique identifier. By providing you with a unique cookie, we are able to create a database of your previous choices and preferences, and in situations where these choices or preferences need to be collected again; they can be supplied by us automatically, saving you time and effort. Your computer may be specially configured to reject cookies; please refer to your browser for more information. Ampacet’s website will allow you to visit without accepting cookies, but some features of our website may not work properly if you choose to reject cookies.
3. User Generated Information
We collect information at this website when you contact us or respond to the surveys, questionnaires or applications we make available. If you e-mail us, you are voluntarily releasing the content of your e-mail to us (including your e-mail address). If you answer questions we have placed on the website page, you are also voluntarily releasing that information to us. You may decide not to answer any questions presented to you on our website; if you do, you may still continue your visit, but we may elect not to provide you with services or features related to the questions you choose not to answer.
B. How Information is Used and Shared
Ampacet may use any of the information gathered at this website for any legal purpose. We may analyze personal information for historical or statistical purposes, or we may store the personal information for your convenience should you return to this website in the future. In the course of any of these activities, we may transmit any of the information we have collected to another country or share it with Ampacet affiliates or third parties including contractors, dealers, distributors and retailers. An example of a third party that could receive your personal information is a data processing contractor that operates computer systems on our behalf. Whenever any personal information is transferred to an affiliate or third party, that party will be contractually bound to abide by our privacy policy.
We may also use your personal information to investigate security breaches to cooperate with government authorities pursuant to a legal matter. Personal information collected online may also be combined with information you have provided to Ampacet through other sources such as product registrations, call centers, or publicly such as at trade shows or seminars.
C. Consent to Use Information
By using this website you agree to the terms of this privacy statement. By agreeing to the terms of this privacy statement you are consenting to our continued use of previously collected information under the terms of this privacy statement.
