CONSUMER PRIVACY

I. INFORMATION WE COLLECT: INDIVIDUAL INTERNET CONSUMERS

A. Personally Identifiable Information (PII).
Dimensional Documentation Design, Inc. Network sites are designed to promote and facilitate the business of the Dimensional Documentation Design, Inc. companies with consumers, advertisers and marketers. These sites do they seek any PII from consumers. PII may be collected should a consumer contact a Dimensional Documentation Design, Inc. company on his/her own initiative or respond to a Dimensional Documentation Design, Inc. advertisement and provide any PII. Under no circumstances does the Dimensional Documentation Design, Inc. Network request or collect sensitive PII such as an Internet user's medical/health conditions; racial or ethnic origin; political, religious or philosophical beliefs or affiliations; trade union membership or sex life.

B. Non-Personally Identifiable Information (Non-PII).
When a consumer responds to or views an Internet advertisement served by a Dimensional Documentation Design, Inc. company (such as through third-party Web sites or email solicitation) or visits a Dimensional Documentation Design, Inc. Network site, we may send a cookie and/or gif file ("Cookies") to assign an anonymous, unique identifier to the end user's Internet browser. Cookies are small data files commonly used on the Internet to help optimize and personalize the Internet end user experience and identify repeat visitors to Web sites.

The function of these Cookies is to provide Dimensional Documentation Design, Inc. with information for the purpose of paying commissions when an Internet user clicks on a link, creates a lead, or makes a purchase on an advertiser's Web site; and also to optimize and personalize the Internet user's experience.

Like most standard Web site servers, we use log files to collect Internet protocol (IP) addresses, browser type, Internet service provider (ISP), referring/exit pages, platform type, and date/time stamp. We use the information to analyze site usage, administer the site, understand usage and navigation trends in aggregate, and determine the relevance of content. This information, however, is not linked to any personally identifiable information.

Dimensional Documentation Design, Inc. does not use Cookies or log files to collect end users' names, physical addresses, email addresses, phone numbers, credit card numbers, social security numbers, or any other information that can be used to identify a specific person. We may match the IP address and user profile with email address data obtained separately in order to better target campaigns to meet user's interests, but will not share this information with third parties.

In some cases, Dimensional Documentation Design, Inc. receives and records partial email addresses of Internet users, only in circumstances where the user voluntarily provided its identity and contact information through the Network’s site, an Advertiser's site, or third-party marketer's site. This partial email address does not enable Dimensional Documentation Design, Inc. to personally identify an Internet User. However, users may sign up for optional site features such as newsletters. In this case email addresses are retained for only such agreed upon purposes. We do not sell or transfer email addresses to third parties.

II. INFORMATION SHARING
The Dimensional Documentation Design, Inc. Network may release account and any other personal information when we believe release is appropriate to respond to a subpoena or otherwise comply with the law; enforce or apply our site terms and other agreements; or protect the rights, property, or safety of Dimensional Documentation Design, Inc. or others. This includes exchanging information with other companies and organizations for fraud protection. When possible under the law, we will inform you of any such activities.

III. CONSUMER CHOICE AND ACCESS

A. Opting Out.
Some Dimensional Documentation Design, Inc. Cookies have an "opt-out" option. This process does not remove the Dimensional Documentation Design, Inc. Cookie from your system; it simply replaces it with an opt-out Cookie that does not contain any unique identifiers. If this site provides such a process it is detailed below.

Some of Dimensional Documentation Design, Inc.'s Cookies do not have an "opt-out" option, yet you still have the option of blocking the use of Cookies by changing a setting in your Internet browser. Please see your browser supplier's Web site for details on how to do this.

This site does not maintain a process for an individual consumer to opt-out of a Dimensional Documentation Design, Inc. ad serving Cookie.

IV. SECURITY

The Dimensional Documentation Design, Inc. Network employs industry standard security measures to ensure the security of all data. Any data that is stored on Dimensional Documentation Design, Inc.'s servers is treated as proprietary and confidential and is not available to the public. Dimensional Documentation Design, Inc. has an internal security policy with respect to the confidentiality of customer and other data, allowing access only to those employees or third parties who have a need to know such information for the purpose of effectively delivering Dimensional Documentation Design, Inc. products and services by means of user login and password requirements. The Dimensional Documentation Design, Inc. Network routinely evaluates its data security practices to identify security threats or opportunities for improvement.

No transmission of data over the Internet is guaranteed to be completely secure. It may be possible for third parties not under the control of Dimensional Documentation Design, Inc. to intercept or access transmissions or private communications unlawfully. While we strive to protect your PII, Dimensional Documentation Design, Inc. cannot ensure or warrant the security of any information you transmit to us.

V. CONSENT AND CHANGES

The Dimensional Documentation Design, Inc. Network may find it necessary or be legally obligated to update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When we do, we will post those changes on this page and update the effective date so that you are always aware of the information we collect, how we use it, and under what circumstances we disclose it.

VI. CHILDREN'S PRIVACY AND SPAM

The Dimensional Documentation Design, Inc. is very sensitive to the issue of children's privacy and makes every effort to protect the privacy of children using the Internet. Dimensional Documentation Design, Inc.'s Web site, products, and services are not developed for or directed at children. Children (persons under the age of 18) are not eligible to do business with us and we do not collect personal information from any person we actually know is under that age. If you believe your child has provided the Dimensional Documentation Design, Inc. Network with any personally identifiable data by registering at a Dimensional Documentation Design, Inc. Web site, please email the site’s webmaster to have them removed.

The Dimensional Documentation Design, Inc. Network is committed to proper Internet practices and full compliance with the CAN-SPAM Act of 2003 (15 U.S.C. § 7701). It is our policy to prohibit the sending of unsolicited or "Spam" e-mail by Dimensional Documentation Design, Inc. or any of its marketing partners.

Please note that under the CAN-SPAM Act, an advertiser is required to provide an opt-out mechanism for consumers to unsubscribe from future emails about the advertiser. Although not required to by law, many email marketers also include an opt-out mechanism to enable consumers to be removed from their mailing list. This has caused some confusion for consumers in opting out. The table below clarifies which opt-out mechanism you should use for commercial emails.

VII. DATA PROCESSING/SAFE HARBOR

The European Union ("EU") maintains strict privacy laws. These rules differ significantly from US laws. To reconcile these differences, the US and the EU have created a Safe Harbor that defines mutually acceptable privacy operations. Dimensional Documentation Design, Inc., Inc. adheres to the Safe Harbor principals. For more information see www.export.gov/safeharbor.

By providing information to Dimensional Documentation Design, Inc. Network sites, you acknowledge that they operate in the United States and agree to (i) permit Dimensional Documentation Design, Inc. to transmit and use your User information anywhere necessary, including across international boundaries, to affect the services and transactions provided by this Site; and (ii) that such use by Dimensional Documentation Design, Inc. shall be subject to the terms and conditions stated in this Privacy Statement and our Terms and Conditions.

VIII. NETWORK ADVERTISING INITIATIVE

Dimensional Documentation Design, Inc., Inc. is not a member of the Network Advertising Initiative ("NAI"). The NAI is a group of third party network advertisers committed to increasing consumer confidence and contributing to the growth of electronic commerce. Although we are not members, we strive to provide consumers with a clear explanation of what data we collect, how we use them, and why the use of data can benefit consumer's experience online.
