This document sets forth the NINIVA Online Privacy Policy (the "Privacy Policy") for this Web site, www.Langware.com (the "Site"). If you have objections to the Privacy Policy, you should not access or use this Site. This Privacy Policy does not govern privacy practices associated with offline activities or other NINIVA web sites.
Collection of personal information As a visitor to this Site, you can engage in many activities without providing any personal information. In connection with other activities, such as subscribing to the collaboration services offered on the Site or utilizing online software applications, NINIVA may ask you to provide certain information about yourself by filling out and submitting an online form. It is completely optional for you to engage in these activities. If you elect to engage in these activities, however, NINIVA may ask that you provide us personal information, such as your first and last name, mailing address (including ZIP code), e-mail address, employer, job title and department, telephone and facsimile numbers, and other personal information. When ordering products or services on the Site, you may be asked to provide a credit card number. Depending upon the activity, some of the information that we ask you to provide is identified as mandatory and some as voluntary. If you do not provide the mandatory data with respect to a particular activity, you will not be able to engage in that activity.
When you use the Site, NINIVA or third parties authorized by NINIVA may also collect certain technical and routing information about your computer to facilitate your use of the Site and its services. For example, we may log environmental variables, such as browser type, operating system, CPU speed, and the Internet Protocol ("IP") address of your computer. We use these environmental variables to facilitate and track your use of the Site and its services. NINIVA also uses such environmental variables to measure traffic patterns on the Site. Without expressly informing you in each particular circumstance, we do not match such information with any of your personal information.
When you submit personal information to NINIVA through this Site, you understand and agree that this information may be transferred across national boundaries and may be stored and processed in any of the countries in which NINIVA and its affiliates and subsidiaries maintain offices, including, without limitation, the United States. You also acknowledge that in certain countries or with respect to certain activities, the collection, transferring, storage, and processing of your information may be undertaken by trusted vendors of NINIVA. Such vendors are bound by contract not to use your personal information for their own purposes or provide it to any third parties. One instance where this could occur is in conjunction with framed pages in which the URL for the pages is not visible and the pages are being hosted by a vendor of NINIVA.
NINIVA has established relationships with various service providers whose services are available to you from this Site or from Web sites that are linked to this Site. Typically, these providers offer services that NINIVA customers might find useful, such as those that can be used in conjunction with NINIVA services and products. In order to use those services, you may be required to provide personal information to the providers. Unless expressly provided to the contrary, personal information that you provide while you are visiting a provider's Web site will be subject to the privacy policy posted on such site, and personal information that you provide while on this Site in conjunction with a provider's service will be subject to this Privacy Policy. You should be aware that our agreements with these service providers often provide that they will share with NINIVA personal information collected from you. In such instances, NINIVA may use this information in a manner consistent with this Privacy Policy. In the situation where sites have an NINIVA "look and feel," and you reasonably believe you are on an NINIVA site, the site is collecting information in a solely intermediary capacity and does not use personal information for secondary purposes. How your personal information is used NINIVA collects your information in order to record and support your participation in the activities you select. If you subscribe to a service or register a product, for example, the information is used to register your rights, if any, to technical support or other benefits that may be made available to registered users. As another example, if you enter a contest, information is collected to qualify the entry and contact you regarding the contest or prize awards. Your personal information is also used to keep you informed about product upgrades, special offers, and other products and services of NINIVA and selected third parties if you have so opted to receive such communications.
NINIVA may collect information about the use of the Site, such as the types of services used and how many users we receive daily. This information is collected in aggregate form, without identifying any user individually. NINIVA may use this aggregate, non-identifying statistical data for statistical analysis, marketing, or similar promotional purposes. Your choices with respect to personal information NINIVA recognizes and appreciates the importance of responsible use of information collected on this Site. Without your consent, NINIVA will not communicate any information to you regarding products, services, and special offers available from NINIVA, although we may find it necessary to communicate with you regarding your use of the services on this Site. Except in the particular circumstances described in this Privacy Policy, NINIVA will also not provide your name to other companies or organizations without your consent.
There are other instances in which NINIVA may divulge your personal information. NINIVA may provide your personal information if necessary, in NINIVA 's good faith judgment, to comply with laws or regulations of a governmental or regulatory body or in response to a valid subpoena, warrant, or order or to protect the rights of NINIVA or others. Protection of your personal information The personal information that you provide in connection with registering yourself as a user of NINIVA products or services or registering an NINIVA product is classified as Registration Information. Registration Information is protected in several ways. Access by you to your Registration Information is available through a password and unique customer ID selected by you. This password is encrypted. We recommend that you do not divulge your password to anyone. In addition, your Registration Information resides on a secure server that only selected NINIVA personnel and contractors have access to via password. NINIVA encrypts your personal information and thereby strives to prevent unauthorized parties from viewing such information when it is transmitted to NINIVA.
Personal information that you provide that does not constitute Registration Information also resides on a secure server and is only accessible to selected NINIVA personnel and contractors via password. Since this information is not accessible by you, you will not be asked to select a password in order to view or modify such information.
Please note that any information you post to a public bulletin board or chat room, such as the NINIVA User to User Forums (the "Forums"), is available to all persons accessing that location. Your e-mail address will not automatically be posted on the Forums unless you modify the default setting to permit that. Your e-mail address would then be available to all persons accessing the Forums. In addition, you should be aware that the Forums offers a service in which subscribers are e-mailed a copy of all messages posted to the Forums on a particular topic. Consequently, if you post a message to the Forums, your e-mail address will be sent to those subscribers that have indicated an interest in the topic of your message.
Use of cookies When you visit this Site, you can browse the Site and access important information without revealing your identity. In order to improve our Site, we use "cookies" to track your visit. A cookie is a small amount of data that is transferred to your browser by a Web server and can only be read by the server that gave it to you. It functions as your identification card, and enables NINIVA to record your passwords, purchases, and preferences. It cannot be executed as code or deliver viruses.
Most browsers are initially set to accept cookies. You can set your browser to notify you when you receive a cookie, giving you the chance to decide whether to accept it. (For some Web pages that require an authorization, cookies are not optional. Users choosing not to accept cookies will probably not be able to access those pages.)
In your correspondence, please indicate with as much detail as possible the location on this Site where you provided your personal information.
Privacy-related inquiries and complaints NINIVA takes its users' privacy concerns seriously. If you believe that NINIVA has not complied with this Online Privacy Policy with respect to your personal information or you have other related inquiries or concerns, you may write to the NINIVA Privacy Officer at the address indicated above.
Please note that if you provide NINIVA with inconsistent privacy preferences (for example, by indicating on one occasion that third parties may contact you with marketing offers and indicating on another occasion that they may not), NINIVA cannot guarantee that your most recent privacy preference will be honoured.
Also, please note that NINIVA is not responsible for the content or privacy practices of non-NINIVA Web sites to which this Site or any other NINIVA Web site may link. You should review the privacy policy of such sites before using the sites. Last updated: Feb, 2010 Copyright © 2001-2010 NINIVA. All rights reserved.
