In this Privacy Policy, Factorytalk describes our commitment to privacy. Factorytalk may, in its discretion, amend this Privacy Policy from time to time. Any material changes to our policy will be reflected on this page, so that you remain informed about the information we collect and how we use it.

Information That We Collect, and How We Use It Factorytalk collects information from our users when they request copies or publications, seek additional information regarding our services or employment opportunities, or register for conferences and other Factorytalk-sponsored events. Some of our Site's registration, enrollment, account setup and other forms may ask users to give us contact information, unique personal identifiers, financial information, subject areas of interest and / or demographic information. Factorytalk also may conduct user surveys on the Web, which usually are intended to provide Factorytalk with information on a number of areas, such as user identity, user viewing habits, whether or not users found what they were searching for, whether the Site content is relevant to user needs, and the like. Factorytalk uses the information gathered from such surveys to improve our web content, navigation, and overall visitor experience. Any personal information that you provide, such as your name, address, e-mail address, phone number, subject areas of interest, etc., allows Factorytalk to inform you about updates to the service and to notify you about other product and services offered by Factorytalk that may be of interest to you. We will not sell, share, or rent or otherwise make available any of that information to other parties, except that we may disclose the information to third parties who perform services on our behalf in connection with the Site and have a need to access the information in connection with those services. Individuals that subscribe to e-mail newsletters are given the opportunity to opt-out or promotions, news, and information at the time sign up. Our Site also provides users the opportunity to opt-out of receiving communications from us at the points where we request information. You may also feel free to contact us as indicated below. E-Mail Addresses We may collect the e-mail addresses at the point of subscription, of users who wish to receive e-mail notification of publications and press releases in identified subject areas of interest, and of those who send us e-mail messages. We will not, however, share any e-mail addresses with any third party or send unsolicited e-mail to any of the addresses we collect, except in very limited circumstances as set forth in this policy. Security Processes Factorytalk has in place technological and operational security processes designed to protect personally identifiable information from loss, misuse, alteration or destruction. Only authorized employees and contractors will have access to any data provided by you, and that access is limited by need. Each employee or contractor having access to any personally-identifiable information is obligated to maintain its confidentiality. Although we take steps that are generally accepted as industry standard to protect your personally-identifiable information, Factorytalk cannot guarantee that your personally-identifiable information will not become accessible to unauthorized persons.
