PASCO Privacy Statement
At PASCO, customers always come first. We recognize that building a long-term business relationship with you depends a great deal on trust. This trust begins with our commitment to respecting as well as protecting your privacy.
We've structured our web sites so that, in general, you can visit PASCO on the Web without identifying yourself or revealing any personal information. Once you choose to provide us personal information (name, address, e-mail address, phone number, etc.) you can be assured that it will only be used to support your customer relationship with PASCO.
What information we collect
On some PASCO web sites, you can order products or services, download software updates, make requests, and register to receive materials. The types of personal information collected at these pages include name, e-mail address, contact and billing information, transaction, and credit card information. In order to tailor our subsequent communications to you and continuously improve our products and services (including registration), we may also ask you to provide us with information regarding your personal or professional interests, demographics, experience with our products, and contact preferences. Data collected online may also be combined with information you provide when you register your ownership of PASCO products. Personal information can be updated each time you place an order or obtain a quote from the online PASCO store.
PASCO also uses web site logging/analysis software to track how PASCO visitors navigate through the site. This site log, commonly called a "hit" log, allows PASCO to determine which PASCO web site pages are the most popular. The log contains no personal information, only a listing of web site addresses visited by PASCO customers.
How we use the information
PASCO uses your information to better understand your needs and provide you with better service. Specifically, we use your information to help you complete a transaction, to communicate back to you, to update you on services and benefits, and to personalize our web sites for you. Credit card numbers are used only for payment processing and are not retained for other purposes.
From time to time, we may also use your information to contact you for market research or to provide you with marketing information we think would be of particular interest. At a minimum, we will always give you the opportunity to opt-out of receiving such contact.
Whom we share the information with
PASCO will not sell, rent, or lease your personal information to others. Unless you tell us otherwise or law prevents us, we will only share the personal data you provide online with other PASCO entities and/or business partners who are acting on our behalf for the uses described above. Such PASCO entities and/or business partners are governed by our privacy policies with respect to the use of this data and are bound by the appropriate confidentiality agreements.
How PASCO Uses Cookies
A cookie is a piece of text asking permission to be placed on your computer's hard drive. If you agree, then your browser adds the text in a small text file. Cookies help us analyze web traffic and let us know when you visit a particular PASCO web page. Cookies enable web applications to respond to you as an individual. By gathering and remembering information about your preferences, the web application can tailor its operation to your needs, likes and dislikes.
A few PASCO web sites use cookies to track unique IDs as part of the customer web navigation. This cookie, by itself, only tells us that a previous PASCO visitor has returned. If you deny the cookie, you can still use the site anonymously. Certain PASCO web sites use cookies to provide an automated log-in process for previously registered customers. This insures that you will be accurately identified and linked with your registration data.
Overall, cookies help us give you a better, personalized web site to use. PASCO wants to be sure you understand that accepting a cookie in no way gives us access to your computer or any personal information about you, other than the data you chose to share with us. This practice is strictly enforced. We know that a lot of people have concerns about cookies, but in talking with many of our customers, we believe that the benefit we both gain from their proper use is worthwhile. We value the relationships we have with our customers, so we respect these concerns. PASCO works to continuously improve the PASCO web experience and personal data privacy policy and practices.
You may set your web browser to notify you of cookie placement requests or decline cookies completely. You can delete the files that contains cookies; those files are stored as part of your internet browser.
Links to Third Party Web Sites
Links to third party web sites are provided solely as a convenience to you. If you use these links, you will leave the PASCO site. PASCO has not reviewed all of these third party sites and does not control and is not responsible for any of these sites, their content or their privacy policies. Thus, PASCO does not endorse or make any representations about them, or any information, software or other products or materials found there, or any results that may be obtained from using them. If you decide to access any of the third party sites linked to this site, you do this entirely at your own risk.
Security
PASCO is committed to ensuring the security of your information. To prevent unauthorized access or disclosure, maintain data accuracy, and ensure the appropriate use of information, we have put in place appropriate physical, electronic, and managerial procedures to safeguard and secure the information we collect online. We use encryption when collecting or transferring sensitive data such as credit card information.
