At Padtech Limited we respect and protect the privacy of those who visit or use
our Web sites. When we collect information from you, we want you to know how it
is used. To demonstrate our commitment to fair information practices, we have adopted
leading industry privacy guidelines.
Padtech Limited collects personal information such as name, address, e-mail address
and billing information when you knowingly provide it to us. Our Web servers may
automatically collect statistical information about your visit such as pages visited
and which browsers are used to visit our site. None of this information is associated
with you as an individual (see information about cookies). If collected, we would
use these statistics to monitor our site's performance and to make it easier for
you to use.
When you supply information for a specific purpose such as ordering smartdiary,
we use the information for the purpose of providing that service. If the way we
use personally identifiable information changes, Glance Networks, Inc. will contact
you via e-mail notifying you of this change and giving you the opportunity to opt
out of such use.
When you choose to subscribe from Padtech Limited, we request accurate contact information.
You will be able to choose if your contact information is used to send you company
and product information, special offers and/or newsletters.
If you're a smartdiary customer, we store your name, purchase and usage history
and billing information to allow you to manage your smartdiary account.
In order to improve your experience with us, we may decide to improve our site's
ability to obtain information about users. If we do, we will update this privacy
statement continually to ensure that you are aware of developments in this area.
No, we do not sell individually identifiable information obtained on-line about
our visitors to anyone outside of Padtech Limited. The only exception to this rule
is if we are required by law to release information.
If you provide individually identifiable information at an event PAdtech Limited
sponsors with another company, or if you subscribe or register on a co-sponsored
or co-branded Web site, you may be providing the individually identifiable information
to the co-sponsor. Review the privacy statement on the co-branded site to learn
how the partner uses this information. Be assured that Padtech Limited uses this
information in accordance with this privacy policy.
On occasion, Padtech Limited shares non-personally identifiable information with
non-Padtech Limited companies in order to assess the results of a promotion. This
information is used in aggregate only, and does not contain any information that
would personally identify you. Information could be shared with an authorised Padtech
Limited reseller to fulfill a request for information or to follow up on an inquiry.
We will inform you when your personally identifiable information is being shared
and for what purposes.
Personal information submitted to Padtech Limited through this Site may be transferred
across national boundaries and may be stored and processed in any of the countries
in which Padtech Limited its affiliates or authorised resellers maintain offices,
including, without limitation, the United Kingdom. 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 Padtech Limited. Such vendors are bound by contract not to use your personal
information for their own purposes or provide it to any third parties.
Yes. 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. It cannot be executed as code or deliver viruses.
Glance sets a session cookie when you log into your personal account at the Glance
web site, so the site knows that you are logged in. The cookie is removed when you
exit your browser. The cookie may be read if, at a future date, the person subscribes
to the smartdiary service. This allows Padtech Limited to measure non-personally
identifiable statistics on how users learned about the service.
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. We may also use a cookie to make it easier for you to login and to help us determine
site traffic patterns. This cookie contains no personal information other than a
non discript Padtech ID. You can refuse to accept this cookie and still use smartdiary.
If you are a "cookie-phobe," you can set your browser to not accept any cookies,
not accept permanent cookies, or tell it to erase all cookies at the end of a session.
Personal information you voluntarily supply when obtaining information, purchasing
services or interacting with our advertising may be shared with authorised resellers
or affiliates of Padtech Limited. However, you will be informed when such information
is shared and will be given an opportunity to opt out. Should any changes be made
in the way we use personally identifiable information, Padtech Limited will contact
you via e-mail notifying you of this change and give you the opportunity to choose
to opt out of such use.
At times, we may utilise e-mail for any of these reasons:
- To conduct online surveys
- To respond to a site visitor's e-mail
- To confirm orders placed online
- To send information that a visitor has requested
- To respond to a "Tell a Friend" request
- To reset a password
- To periodically distribute a newsletter
Occasionally, we may use opt-in e-mail lists from third parties to promote our latest
specials. In all of these situations you will be provided with direction on how
to opt out of future e-mails of this nature.
Because of the nature of our business, our Web site is not designed to appeal to
children under the age of 13. Therefore, we do not knowingly attempt to solicit
or receive any information from children.
We are committed to protecting the information you give us, so we implement the
appropriate safeguards to do so. Any information that you give us is protected by
a password for added security. Within Padtech Limited, your information is stored
in password-protected, limited-access servers. Wherever possible, Padtech Limited
servers reside behind a firewall that maintains tight controls on any access to
the system from both our internal network and the Internet. Employees are made aware
of our privacy policy and are trained on procedures to handle privacy-related concerns.
