Veraterm.com Statement of Privacy
(This document was last updated on January 12, 2004)
Thank you for visiting the Veraterm.com web site and reviewing our
privacy policy. Veraterm.com is owned by Data Management Associates,
Inc. (DMA). DMA believes in the privacy of personal information, and has
established these standards of conduct for itself and for the confidence
of Veraterm.com users. The statements that follow describe DMA's
policies and practices for personal information gathering, sharing,
access by others, security and data integrity. If you have additional
questions about your privacy on this web site, please
contact us.
Personal Information
Personal information is any information that identifies you or is
personal to you. Examples include your name, contact information, job
title, areas of job responsibility, and, if you are ordering products,
credit card information.
In general anyone may visit Veraterm.com without disclosing any
personal information. Certain activities initiated by you may require you
to disclose personal information. Examples are ordering products or
demonstration products, (including patches and maintenance-releases),
corresponding with us, or requesting information by completing an on-line
form. On any occasion when we request personal information, we will
provide a link back to this page, so that you may review these policies
before you decide whether to give us your personal information. In
addition, we allow you to opt out of allowing us to share your personal
information with third parties or use it for purposes unrelated to the
purpose for which you disclosed it.
Business Partners
If you are visiting Veraterm.com as a representative of one of our
resellers, solution providers, distributors or other organization with
whom we have business alliances, our practices and policies may differ
from those stated here. Please visit the DMA Partners area for more
information about this.
Use and Disclosure of Personal Information
DMA uses your personal information to communicate with you about DMA
products and services you have purchased, to provide information you have
requested, and, unless you have opted out of other uses, to inform you of
product developments and new products. Our relationships with our
customers (including the individuals through whom we establish the
customer relationship) and customer database are valuable assets. We
treat our customer database with care and respect, and as a consequence
are selective about sharing it or your personal information with third
parties. In general, we allow access to this information only to entities
who resell our products or with whom we have business alliances. Again,
if you do not wish to be contacted by other parties, you may opt out of
this use. We may disclose your personal information if we are required by
law to do so, by a subpoena or similar document, law or regulation, or in
connection with a sale or merger of our business or line of business or
other similar event.
Visitors Under the Age of Eighteen
Veraterm.com is not directed toward children. DMA nonetheless is
committed to comply with applicable laws, such as the Children's Online
Privacy Protection Act. If you are eighteen years old or younger, please
do not submit personal information to Veraterm.com without permission
from your parent or guardian.
Correction of Errors and Data Security
DMA endeavors to maintain current information, and occasionally may
contact you or someone from your organization to verify the accuracy of
contact information. If you notice an error in information pertaining to
you, you may contact us or simply reply to the communication containing
the error. We will make a sincere effort to respond quickly to your
request for correction. DMA uses restrictive technologies and processes
to ensure against loss, misuse, destruction and unauthorized access of
all of its data, including your personal information. Technologies
include commercial quality anti-virus software and firewall protection.
Cookies and Aggregate Information
Some pages on Veraterm.com may use "cookies," a small file of data that
a web site sends to your browser for storage on your hard drive. The
cookie does not contain personal information, but allows DMA to maintain
a better web site by recording how and when users visit the site, and to
serve you better on your next visit. You may disable cookies by choosing
that mechanism on your browser. DMA may collect aggregate information
through a web site log file. Information in a log file might include your
IP address, referring or exit pages, platform type, date and time stamp,

patterns, and is not reviewed at a personal level.
Advertising and links on Veraterm.com
DMA on occasion may allow others to advertise on Veraterm.com.
Generally the only permitted advertisers would be resellers of DMA
products or others with whom DMA has a business alliance or affiliation.
These companies may collect personal information, and may share it with
us. If you wish to restrict an advertiser's use or further disclosure of
your personal information, you must visit their web site and follow any
steps outlined there for protection of your privacy.
For convenience Veraterm.com may provide links to other web sites.
