Sypris Test and Measurement Privacy Statement
Sypris Test and Measurement has created this
Privacy Statement in order to demonstrate our
company's commitment to privacy. Your right to
privacy and data security is a primary concern.
When you visit any Sypris Test and Measurement Web site, we help you maintain
control over your personal data on the Internet. Below are the guidelines we use
for protecting the information you provide us during a visit to our Internet
sites.
Information Gathering and
Usage
Sypris Test and Measurement gathers information about you from data that you
provide through such things as optional or mandatory registration, online
surveys, and contests. The types of personal information collected can include
name, mailing address, phone number, email address, transaction and credit card
information. We may also ask you to provide us with demographic information such
as your job function, industry, application, contact preferences or experience
with our products. Sypris Test and Measurement may enhance or merge your
information collected on our site with other operational data as well as data
from third parties for purposes of marketing products or services to you. Such
information enables us to better tailor our content to your needs.
The information you provide will be used to support your professional
relationship with Sypris Test and Measurement and our products. Among other
things, we want to help you quickly find information on Sypris Test and
Measurement Web sites and alert you to information on our products, services and
programs. We also use this information to help you complete a transaction and in
some cases to contact you for market research.
Links to Other Sites
This Web site contains links to other sites that are not owned or
controlled by Sypris Test and Measurement. Links to other sites will open in a
new browser window. Please be aware that Sypris Test and Measurement is not
responsible for the privacy practices of such other sites. We encourage you to
be aware when you leave our site and to read the privacy statements of each and
every Web site that collects personally identifiable information. This privacy
statement applies only to information collected by this Web site.
Message Boards/Forums
This Web site may make forums and message boards available to you.
Please remember that any information that is disclosed in these areas becomes
public information. You should exercise caution when deciding to disclose your
personal information.
Electronic Newsletters
Sypris Test and Measurement may offer various free electronic
newsletters. We don't spam, never sell or rent email addresses, and
there's an easy unsubscribe in every email you'll receive. Alternately users may
remove themselves from mailing lists by sending an email to
privacy@Sypris.com.
Contests
Sypris Test and Measurement offers contests in which we request certain
personal information. At a minimum, the required information includes name and
email address. In some cases, the entrant must answer mandatory survey questions
about a range of technical interests and personal data. The information gathered
in the entry form is used to verify the entrant's identity and eligibility, to
contact winners or prize recipients, and to market and sell our products.
Because the rules and terms of each contest can vary, all information about each
contest is clearly posted during the event.
Forward to a Friend Feature
If you choose to use our referral service to tell a friend about our
site, we will ask you for your friend's name and email address. Your email
address will appear as the sender of the email and we will automatically send
your friend a one-time email inviting him or her to visit the site. Both your
email address and the recipient's email address will not be used for any other
purpose except to facilitate the sending of this one-time email to your friend.
Sypris Test and Measurement stores this information for the sole purpose of
sending this one-time email and tracking the success of our referral program.
Log Files
Like most standard Web site servers, we use log files to automatically
log 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. We log this information to analyze trends, administer the
site, track user movement in the aggregate, and gather broad demographic
information for aggregate use. For areas of our site that require registration,
we log the user's email address and specific information concerning the user's
activity on the site. This information may be tied to the user's other personal
information and, if so, it is used to support the user's professional
relationship with Sypris Test and Measurement and our products.
