Analytics:
We use Google Analytics, which uses cookies and similar technologies to collect and analyze information about use of services and to generate reports on activities and trends. This service may also collect information regarding the use of other websites, apps and online resources. You can learn about Google’s privacy practices at www.google.com/policies/privacy/partners/, and opt out by downloading the Google Analytics opt-out browser add-on, available at https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout.
IP Address:
Your IP address is a number that is automatically assigned to the computer that you are using by your Internet Service Provider. An IP address may be logged automatically in our server log files whenever you access services, along with the time of the visit and the pages visited. Collecting IP addresses is done automatically by many websites, applications and other services. We use IP addresses for purposes such as calculating usage levels, diagnosing server problems and administering the services. We may also derive your approximate location from your IP address. Using pixel tags and similar technologies:
Pixel tags (also known as web beacons and clear GIFs) may be used in connection with some services to track the actions of users (including email recipients), measure the success of our marketing campaigns and compile statistics about use of the Services and response rates.
How is your information used?
We may use your information to:
- Notify you of changes to our services;
- Send you communications which you have requested and that may be of interest to you;
- Promotions of our associated services.
We review our retention periods for personal information on a regular basis. We will hold your personal information on our systems for as long as is necessary for the relevant activity, or for the duration stipulated in any relevant contract you hold with us.
Who has access to your information?
Your information is not used for any purpose other than described above and is not shared with outside parties.
We will not sell or rent your information to third parties.
Finally, we never use or share the personally identifiable information provided to us online in ways unrelated to the ones described above without also providing you an opportunity to opt-out or otherwise prohibit such unrelated uses.
Security precautions in place to protect the loss, misuse or alteration of your information.
To prevent unauthorized access, maintain data accuracy, and ensure the correct use of information, PLC Multipoint has put in place appropriate physical, electronic, and managerial procedures to safeguard and secure the information we collect online. All pages are encrypted and protected with 128 Bit SSL encryption. When you are on a secure page, a lock icon will appear on the bottom of web browsers such as Microsoft Internet Explorer.
Non-sensitive details (your email address, etc.) are transmitted normally over the Internet, and, as such, can never be guaranteed to be 100% secure. As a result, while we strive to protect your personal information, we cannot guarantee the security of any information you transmit to us, and you do so at your own risk. Once we receive your information, we make our best effort to ensure its security on our systems. Where we have given (or you have chosen) a password which enables you to access certain parts of the software product, you are responsible for keeping this password confidential. We ask you not to share your password with anyone.

Overall, cookies help us provide you with a better website by enabling us to monitor which pages you find useful and which you do not. A cookie in no way gives us access to your computer or any information about you, other than the data you choose to share with us.
