General
We are sensitive to the private nature of information you provide to us over the Internet. Generally, you can browse through our website without giving us any personally identifiable information about yourself. When we do need your personally identifiable information to provide services that you request online or when you choose to provide us with your personal information online, this policy describes how we collect and use such information. Please read our Privacy Policy carefully.

Information We Collect

General. When you request demos or information from us, and at other times, we will be collecting personally identifiable information from you. The personally identifiable information we collect may include your name, address, phone number and email address, as well as information about your profession, membership and affiliations. However, we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under the age of thirteen.

Web Site Usage Information. Our web servers automatically collect web site usage information from you when you visit our web site, such as IP addresses, web pages viewed, length of visit to a web page, etc. Web site usage information informs us about how our visitors use and navigate our web sites, including the number and frequency of visitors and subscribers to each web page, and the length of their stays.

How We Use and Share Information Collected

We may use the information collected for a variety of reasons, such as to provide you with the demos and information you have requested and for the purposes for which you specifically provided the information, to improve the content and navigation on our web site, to alert you to new products and services, and special offers, and for internal business purposes.

We may use third party suppliers and service providers to facilitate our services and may share your personal information with such third party suppliers and service providers to the extent necessary for them to provide services to us. We require that our third party suppliers and service providers maintain the confidentiality of the personal information we provide to them.

In addition to the disclosure of your personal information noted above, we may use and disclose any information about you to law enforcement, other government officials, or other third parties, as we in our sole discretion believe necessary or appropriate, in connection with an investigation of fraud, intellectual property infrigement, or other activity that is illegal or may expose us to legal liability. We may also disclose such information to third parties as we believe necessary or appropriate, in connection with any merger or consolidation with, or sale of substantially all of our assets to, a third party, provided that such a third party agrees to comply with the privacy policy that applies to your personal information and that appropriate notices are provided to you.

Your Ability to Choose

Opt Out. You can let us know that you do not wish to receive information about our products and services and special offers by opting out at the time you give us your personally identifiable information or by contacting us at info@sierracp.com.

Opt In. In addition, several of the services we provide are entirely voluntary. You will not receive such services unless you opt in, or expressly chose to do so.

Links to affiliated or third-party web sites. We may make content from third-party web sites available to you from links located on our own web site. These web sites are not subject to this Privacy Policy, and should have their own individual privacy policy. We recommend that you review the privacy policy at each such web site to determine how that web site protects your privacy.

Cookies and Web Beacons

Like most web sites, we may also employ cookie technology to help visitors and subscribers move faster through our site. A cookie is a string of information that is sent by a web site and stored on your hard drive or temporarily in your computer's memory.

Web beacons, also known as “clear gif technology,” or “action tags,” may assist in delivering the cookie. This technology can tell us how many visitors clicked on key elements (such as links or graphics) on our web page. We may use web beacons to compile aggregated statistics about our web site usage.

Most web browsers are initially set up to accept cookies. If you prefer, you can reset your browser to notify you when you have received a cookie, or to refuse acceptance of cookies altogether. While we do not require that you use cookies, you should understand that certain areas of this web site will not function properly or may be considerably slower, if you set your browser to refuse all cookies or if you reject a cookie.

Security

The personally identifiable information we collect about you is stored in limited access servers. We will maintain stringent safeguards to protect the security, integrity, and privacy of these servers and of your personally identifiable information.



Policy Modifications

We may change this Privacy Policy from time to time. We will post any changes here, so be sure to check back periodically. If we make any substantial changes in the way we use your personal information we will make that information available by posting a notice on this site.
