Privacy Statement
Information Collection and Use
SCI & Associates is the sole owner of the information
collected on this site. We will not sell, share, or rent this information to
others in ways different from what is disclosed in this statement. SCI &
Associates collects information from our users at several different points on
our website.
E-Mail
Addresses
E-Mail addresses are collected from our order form when a
user requests information. We do not disclose E-Mail addresses to anyone for any
reason. We will not sell E-Mail addresses, names, home addresses, phone numbers
or any information at any time.
Feedback
We request information from the user on our feedback form.
Here a user must provide contact information (like name and e-mail address).
This information is used to address customer's concerns. If we have trouble
processing the feedback, this contact information is used to get in touch with
the user.
Cookies
A cookie is a piece of data stored on the user's hard drive
containing information about the user. Our websites do not use cookies for any
purpose.
Log
Files
We use IP addresses to analyze trends, administer the site,
and gather broad demographic information for aggregate use. IP addresses are not
linked to personally identifiable information, nor are they stored for any other
purposes.
Sharing
We will share aggregated demographic information with our
marketing partners. This is not linked to any personal information that can
identify any individual person. These companies do not retain, share, store or
use personally identifiable information for any secondary purposes. When the
user places an application with us, we will share names, or other contact
information that is necessary for the third party to provide services. These
parties are not allowed to use personally identifiable information except for
the purpose of providing these services.
Links
This web site may contain links to other sites. Please be
aware that SCI & Associates is not responsible for the privacy practices of such
other sites. We encourage our users to be aware when they leave our site and to
read the privacy statements of each and every web site that collects personally
identifiable information. This privacy statement applies solely to information
collected by this Web site.
Surveys
From time-to-time our site may request information from users
via surveys. Participation in these surveys is completely voluntary and the user
therefore has a choice whether or not to disclose personal information.
Information requested may include demographic information (such as zip code, age
level). Survey information will be used for purposes of monitoring or improving
the use and satisfaction of this site.
Security
We take every precaution to protect our users' information.
When users submit sensitive information via the website, your information is
protected. When our request form asks users to enter sensitive information (such
as e-mail address and phone number), that information is stored server-side. We
also do everything in our power to protect user-information off-line. All of our
users' information, not just the sensitive information mentioned above, is
restricted in our offices. Only employees who need the information to perform a
specific job (for example, a customer service representative) are granted access
to personally identifiable information. Furthermore, ALL employees are kept
up-to-date on our security and privacy practices. Every quarter, as well as any
time new policies are added, our employees are notified and/or reminded about
the importance we place on privacy, and what they can do to ensure our
customers' information is protected.
Supplementation of Information
In order for this website to properly fulfill its obligation
to our customers, it is necessary for us to supplement the information we
receive with information from 3rd party sources.
Notification of Changes
If we decide to change our privacy policy, we will post those
changes on our Homepage so our users are always aware of what information we
collect, how we use it, and under circumstances, if any, we disclose it. We will
use information in accordance with the privacy policy under which the
information was collected.
Should you have any questions regarding our policy on protecting your privacy,
please contact our office either by phone or mail via the contact information
listed on the homepage. SCI & Associates appreciates the opportunity to provide
your insurance solutions and will gladly comply with requests for such
information.
