For purposes of this Privacy Statement, “Personal Information” consists of information that specifically identifies or relates to a specific person.  Personal Information does not include anonymous or aggregated information or information that no longer identifies or relates to a specific person.

By using the CPaT Site or Services or providing us your Personal Information, you expressly agree to this Privacy Statement and agree to our End User Terms and Conditions of Use [www.cpat.com/insert link].  If you do not agree with any term in this Privacy Statement, please do not provide us your Personal Information or use the Site.

CPaT may transfer to, store or process your Personal Information in the United States or any other county in which CPaT or its affiliates, subsidiaries or service providers maintain operations.  By using and providing information to CPaT through the Site or use of the Services, you agree and consent to the transferring, storing and processing of your Personal Information in any such country to enable CPaT to provide the Site and Service.

Anyone not of sufficient age to form a legally binding contract under applicable state law may not use our Site or Services.  CPaT does not knowingly collect Personal Information from such persons.

  • Location information: Location information from your device if you agree to allow us to collect such information.

HOW WE USE THE PERSONAL INFORMATION WE COLLECT

We use your Personal Information to:

  • Fulfill your requests for certain products and Services;
  • Respond to your inquiries about our Services;
  • Analyze Site usage and improve the Services provided through the Sites;
  • Alert you to software compatibility issues and to improve our Site design and functionality;
  • Deliver to you administrative notices or alerts and communications relevant to your use of the Services;
  • Offer you other products, programs, or services that we believe may interest you;
  • Perform market research, project planning, product development, troubleshooting problems, analysis of user behavior, marketing and promotions;
  • Detect and protect against errors, fraud, or other criminal activity;
  • Enforce our Terms and Conditions of Service and this Privacy Statement; and
  • Inform you of a major company transaction such as a merger, sale of substantially all of our assets or corporate reorganization.

In addition, we may need to use your Personal Information as follows:

  • Verify Identity: In order to allow you to use certain Services, we may require that you verify your identity.  To do so, we may, directly or through third parties, use information you provide to order a credit report or to verify information you provide against third party databases or through other sources.  We may also use your Personal Information to verify your identity if you contact us for assistance with the Sites or Services.
  • Pre-Fill Forms: We may use your Personal Information to pre-fill form fields on the Sites for your convenience.
  • Pay Fees: We may use the credit card information you provide to charge your account to pay for Services to which you subscribe.
  • Third Party Sites: We may access Third Party Sites on your behalf using Personal Information to obtain information that you requested.
  • Mobile Applications: When you use CPaT’s mobile application (“App”) or mobile versions of our Sites on various mobile devices (e.g., tablets, smartphones, etc.) we may collect the unique device identifier assigned to that device by phone makers, carriers or makers of the operating system (“Device ID“).  Device IDs allow App developers, advertisers and others to identify your device for purposes of storing application preferences and other data.
  • Mobile Device Security: We may use your Device ID for security purposes.  For example, if you have activated a feature that limits access to a Service from a specific device, our systems will access the Device ID from each device you attempt to access the Service with to determine CPaT has specifically authorized that device.
  • Suspicious Activity: Additionally, we may use Device IDs to monitor suspicious activity.  For example, if we detect that multiple devices access a single account on a Site, as determined by tracking the Device IDs that access an account, we may contact you to ensure that you authorized such access.
HOW WE DISCLOSE PERSONAL INFORMATION

We will not, without your permission, sell, publish, or share your Personal Information to third parties for their marketing or any other similar purpose.

CPaT may share your Personal Information with its affiliates and subsidiaries; however, our affiliates and subsidiaries will send you marketing communications only if you have requested such communications.

We may share your Personal Information with third party service providers to enable them to assist in fulfilling the requests you make or the transactions you conduct using the Sites, including the operation of certain Site functions and Services.  We ensure that any third party acting on our behalf has agreed contractually to abide by our privacy practices and not use the information for any other purpose.

We reserve the right, in our sole discretion, to share or disclose your Personal Information with law enforcement, government officials, and other third parties:

  • To respond to subpoenas, court orders, or legal process;
  • To investigate, prevent, defend against, or take other action regarding violations of our Terms and Conditions of Use, illegal activities, suspected fraud or situations involving potential threats to the legal rights or physical safety of any person or the security of our network, Sites or Services;
  • To respond to claims that any posting or other content violates the rights of third parties;
  • In an emergency, to protect the health and safety of our Sites’ users or the general public; or

  • Third parties for their research, marketing and promotional purposes and those third parties may publicly report the findings of their research or analysis; and,
  • Organizations that conduct research into industry trends.

If a third party acquires our company or our assets, or if we undergo a merger, consolidation, change in control, transfer of substantial assets, reorganization or liquidation, we may transfer, sell, or assign to third parties, information concerning your relationship with us, including, without limitation, your Personal Information.  Such third parties will assume responsibility for the Personal Information collected by us in connection with our business operations or through our Sites and such third parties will assume the rights and obligations regarding such information as described in this Privacy Statement.
