privacypolicy
Online Privacy is a constantly evolving subject and First Trace plans to take all reasonable
efforts to maintain up to date and effective online privacy standards and practices. We
have linked every page of our Web site to this page for your convenience and you may also
contact us at
privacy@FirstTrace.com with any questions or concerns that you may have.
Introduction
First Trace, Inc. is committed to respecting your online privacy and recognize your
need for appropriate protection and management of any personally identifiable information
("Personal Information") you share with us.
First Trace has established this Online Privacy Policy so that you can understand the care
with which we intend to treat your Personal Information.
Personal Information means any information that may be used to identify an individual,
including, but not limited to, a first and last name, a home or other physical address and
an email address or other contact information, whether at work or at home. In general, you
can visit the First Trace Web site without telling us who you are or revealing any Personal
Information about yourself.
If you choose to provide us with your Personal Information on the Web, we may transfer
that Information within First Trace or to First Trace third-party solution providers, across
borders, and from your country or jurisdiction to other countries.
First Trace works diligently to comply with all applicable laws that are designed to protect
your privacy. Although legal requirements may vary from country to country, First Trace intends
to adhere to the principles set forth in this Online Privacy Policy even if, in connection with
the above, we transfer your Personal Information from your country to countries that may not
require an "adequate" level of protection for your Personal Information. In other words, our
goal is to provide protection for your Personal Information no matter where that Personal
Information is collected, transferred, or retained.
Cookies and Other Tracking Technologies
Some of our Web pages utilize "cookies" and other tracking technologies. A "cookie" is a
small text file that may be used, for example, to collect information about Web site
activity. Some cookies and other technologies may serve to recall Personal Information
previously indicated by a Web user. Most browsers allow you to control cookies, including
whether or not to accept them and how to remove them.
You may set most browsers to notify you if you receive a cookie, or you may choose to
block cookies with your browser, but please note that if you choose to erase or block
your cookies, you will need to re-enter your original user ID and password to gain access
to certain parts of the Web site.
Tracking technologies may record information such as Internet domain and host names;
Internet protocol (IP) addresses; browser software and operating system types; clickstream
patterns; and dates and times that our site is accessed. Our use of cookies and other
tracking technologies allows us to improve our Web site and your Web experience. We may
also analyze information that does not contain Personal Information for trends and
statistics.
Notice
Where First Trace collects Personal Information on the web, we intend to post a purpose
statement that explains why Personal Information will be collected and whether we plan to
share such Personal Information outside of First Trace or with those working on the behalf of
First Trace. First Trace does not intend to transfer Personal Information without your consent to
third parties who are not bound to act on the behalf of First Trace unless such transfer is
legally required.
Choice
You may choose whether or not to provide Personal Information to First Trace. The notice we
intend to provide where First Trace collects Personal Information on the Web should help you
to make this choice. If you choose not to provide the Personal Information we request, you
can still visit most of the First Trace Web site, but you may be unable to access certain
options, offers, and services that involve our interaction with you.
If you chose to have a relationship with First Trace, such as a contractual or other business
relationship or partnership, we will naturally continue to contact you in connection with
that business relationship.
Security
Wherever your Personal Information may be held within First Trace or on its behalf, we intend
to take reasonable and appropriate steps to protect the Personal Information that you share
with us from unauthorized access or disclosure.
Access/Accuracy
To the extent that you do provide us with Personal Information, First Trace wishes to maintain
accurate Personal Information. Where we collect Personal Information from you on the Web,
our goal is to provide a means of contacting First Trace should you need to update or correct
that Information. If for any reason those means are unavailable or inaccessible, you may
send updates and corrections to
privacy@FirstTrace.com
and we will make reasonable efforts to incorporate the changes in your Personal Information
that we hold as soon as practicable.
Third Party Services
Third parties provide certain services available on FirstTrace.com on behalf of First Trace.
First Trace may provide information, including Personal Information, that First Trace collects on the Web
to third-party service and solution providers to help us deliver programs, products, information,
and services. Service and solution providers are also an important means by which First Trace maintains
its Web site and mailing lists. First Trace will take reasonable steps to ensure that these third-party
providers are obligated to protect Personal Information on behalf of First Trace.
First Trace does not intend to transfer Personal Information without your consent to third
parties who are not bound to act on behalf of First Trace unless such transfer is legally
required. Similarly, it is against First Trace policy to sell Personal Information collected
online without consent.
Children's Privacy
FirstTrace.com is not structured to attract children. Accordingly, we do not intend to
collect Personal Information from anyone we know to be under 13 years of age.
Commitment
We are committed to privacy and support current industry initiatives to preserve individual
privacy rights on the Internet. Protecting your privacy online is an evolving area, and the
First Trace Web site is constantly evolving to meet these demands.
If you have any comments or questions regarding the First Trace Online Privacy Policy, please contact us at
privacy@FirstTrace.com.
While we cannot guarantee privacy perfection, we will address any issue to the best of
our abilities as soon as possible.
Your Consent
By using this Web site, you consent to the terms of our Online Privacy Policy and to
First Trace's processing of Personal Information for the purposes given above as well as those
explained where First Trace collects Personal Information on the Web. Should the Online Privacy
Policy change, we intend to take every reasonable step to ensure that these changes are
brought to your attention by posting all changes prominently on our web site for a
reasonable period of time.
