  1. Privacy Statement; Collection of Personally Identifiable Information (“PII”). Converged Security Solutions (“CSS”) operates this website. All references to “we,” “us,” “our,” this “website” or this “site” shall be construed to mean CSS. We understand that visitors to this website are concerned about the privacy of information. The following describes our privacy policy regarding information that we collect through this website.
  2. Modification of Privacy Policy. Evolver may modify this Privacy Policy at any time in accordance with ongoing legislative and internal policy changes.  We will notify users of changes by posting changes to the Site or by other appropriate means.
    We recommend you visit this page frequently to determine if any changes have occurred. You can determine when this Privacy Policy was last revised by referring to the “Effective Date” at the top of this page. Any changes to this Privacy Statement will become effective upon posting on this Site. A User’s continued use of the Site or provision of personal information to use the Site following such changes indicates acceptance to the revised Privacy Policy.
  3. Collection of Anonymous, Passive Information. We reserve the right to monitor your use of this site. As you navigate through this site, certain anonymous information may be passively collected (that is, gathered without your actively providing the information) using various technologies such as cookies, Internet tags, and navigational data collection (log files, server logs, clickstream). For example, as explained in more detail below, your Internet browser automatically transmits to this site some of this anonymous information such as the Internet Protocol (IP) address and the browser version your computer is currently using. This site may collect anonymous information from your computer through cookies and Internet tags. You may set your browser to notify you when a cookie is sent or to refuse cookies altogether, but certain features of this site might not work without cookies. The following is a listing and a brief explanation of passive information collection methodologies which we may use from time to time to better understand how this site is being used.
  • A “cookie” is a bit of information that this site sends to your Web browser which helps us remember information about you and your preferences.
  • “Session” cookies are temporary bits of information that are used to improve navigation, block visitors from providing information where inappropriate (the site “remembers” previous entries of age or country of origin that were outside the specified parameters and blocks subsequent changes), and collect aggregate statistical information on the site. They are erased once you exit your Web browser or otherwise turn off your computer.
  • “Persistent” cookies are more permanent bits of information that are placed on the hard drive of your computer and stay there unless you delete the cookie. Persistent cookies store information on your computer for a number of purposes such as retrieving certain information you have previously provided, helping to determine what areas of the site you may find most valuable, and customizing the site based on your preferences on an ongoing basis. Persistent cookies placed by this site in your computer do not hold PII.
  • You can set your browser to accept all cookies, to reject all cookies, or to notify you whenever a cookie is offered so that you can decide each time whether to accept it. To learn more about cookies and how to specify your preferences, please search for “cookie” in the “Help” portion of your browser.
  • An Internet Protocol (IP) address is a number assigned to your computer by your Internet service provider so you can access the Internet and is generally considered to be non-personally identifiable information because, in most cases, an IP address is dynamic (changing each time you connect to the Internet) rather than static (unique to a particular user’s computer). The IP address can be used to diagnose problems with a server, report aggregate information, determine the fastest route for your computer to use in connecting to a site, and administer and improve the site.
  • “Internet tags” (also known as Web Beacons, single-pixel GIFs, clear GIFs, and invisible GIFs) are smaller than cookies and tell the Web site server information such as the IP address and browser type related to the visitor’s computer. Tags may be placed on both online advertisements that bring people to the site and on different pages of the site. Such tags indicate how many times a page is opened and which information is consulted.
  • “Navigational data” (log files, server logs, and clickstream data) is used for system management, to improve the content of the site, market research purposes, and to communicate information to visitors.
  1. Use and Sharing of Anonymous, Passive Information. This site may make full use of passively collected anonymous information through the collection methods described above for our own internal operational purposes including, without limitation, the right to use such information to provide better service to site visitors, customize the site based on your preferences, compile and analyze statistics and trends, and otherwise administer and improve this site for your use. We reserve the right to share this information in the same manner as provided below for PII.
  2. Use of 3rd Party Cookies. This site reserves the right to use web analytics services provided by third parties. These services use cookies (sometimes referred to as 3rd party cookies) which are text files placed on your computer to help us analyze how users use this site. The information generated by the cookie about your use of this site (including your IP address) will be transmitted to and stored by the service provider. We use this information for the purpose of evaluating your use of this site, compiling reports on website activity for website operators, and providing other services relating to website activity and internet usage. These services may transfer this information to third parties where required to do so by law, or where such third parties process the information on the service’s behalf. You may refuse the use of cookies by selecting the appropriate settings on your browser; however, please note that if you do this you may not be able to use the full functionality of this site. By using this site, you consent to the processing of data about you by third party analytics services in the manner and for the purposes set out above.
  3. Collection of PII. We will ask you when we need to collect PII (defined above). PII which we collect may vary depending on the services you select and may include, without limitation, one or more of the following categories of information: name, physical address, an email address, and phone number.
  4. Use And Sharing of PII– General Policy. Except as described below, it is our general policy that we will not share, sell, or rent your PII to others. The only exceptions to this general policy are: (i) described in the subsections below, and (ii) if explicitly approved by you through our site.
  5. Unless prohibited by law, we may use and share PII within any companies that may be legally affiliated with us (such as any parent, subsidiary, or brother or sister entity) for the purposes of providing service and account maintenance, to help us design and improve products and services, and to offer products and services that may be of interest to you.
  6. Third-Party Service Providers. We may hire other companies to provide services on our behalf such as web or application hosting or management. We may share or make PII accessible to such third parties; however, all such third parties are required to maintain the confidentiality of PII and are prohibited from using PII for any purpose other than for the services they provide, which may include emails, but only to the extent email is integral to their services.
  7. In the Event of Merger, Sale, or Bankruptcy. In the event that we are acquired by or merged with a third party entity, we reserve the right, in any of these circumstances, to transfer or assign the information we have collected from our users as part of such merger, acquisition, sale, or other change of control. In the unlikely event of our bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, receivership, or assignment for the benefit of creditors, or the application of laws or equitable principles affecting creditors’ rights generally, we may not be able to control how your PII is treated, transferred, or used.
  8. Legal Process. We reserve the right to share PII with third parties in response to a subpoena, to prevent fraud, to comply with an inquiry by a government agency or other regulator, or as necessary for other legal purposes.
  9. Security of PII. We have adopted reasonable and appropriate security measures to protect your PII and other sensitive information. Unfortunately, no data transmission over the Internet or method of data storage can be guaranteed 100% secure. Therefore, while we strive to protect your PII with reasonable and appropriate security measures, we cannot ensure or warrant the absolute security of any information you transmit to us or archive at this site. In the event any PII is released to third parties despite our reasonable efforts to protect such PII, you agree that we have no liability for such release.
  10. Email And Other Messages Through This Site and ECPA Notice. This site treats email messages and other electronic messages that are sent through this site and not viewable by others as confidential and private, except as required by law, including without limitation, the Electronic Communications Privacy Act of 1986, 18 U.S.C. Sections 2701-2711 (the “ECPA”). The ECPA permits this site’s limited ability to intercept and/or disclose electronic messages, for example (i) as necessary to operate our system or to protect our rights or property; (ii) upon legal demand (court orders, warrants, subpoenas); or (iii) where we receive information inadvertently which appears to pertain to the commission of a crime. This site is not considered a “secure communications medium” under the ECPA.
  11. USA Patriot Act Notice. The federal USA Patriot Act (“USA Patriot Act”) provides generally for the operator of a communication host and law enforcement to be able to monitor any content upon request of the operator. We anticipate fully complying with all our obligations and availing ourselves of all our rights under the USA Patriot Act.
  12. Children’s Online Policy. This site is a general audience site. Consistent with the Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA), we will not knowingly collect any information from, or sell to, children under the age of 13. If you are a parent or guardian who has discovered that your child under the age of 13 has submitted his or her personally identifiable information without your permission or consent, we will remove the information from our active list, at your request. To request the removal of your child’s information, please contact us as provided below or under “Contact Info” and be sure to include in your message the same information that your child submitted.
