Online Survey

At times we conduct online surveys to better understand the needs and profiles of our visitors. When we conduct a survey, we will try (but are not obligated) to let you know how we will use the information at the time we collect information from you on the Internet.

The following provides an overview of how we protect your privacy during your visit.

What information do we gather?

Information on adoptforce.com is gathered in two ways: (1) indirectly (for example, through our site’s technology); and (2) directly (for example, when you provide information on various pages of adoptforce.com).

One example of information we collect indirectly is through our Internet access logs. When you access adoptforce.com, your Internet address is automatically collected and is placed in our Internet access logs.

We collect information directly from you in a number of ways, some of which we describe in this Privacy Statement. One way is through the use of cookies. Cookies are small files of information which save and retrieve information about your visit to adoptforce.com—for example, how you entered our site, how you navigated through the site, and what information was of interest to you. (If you are uncomfortable regarding the use of cookies, please keep in mind that you can disable cookies on your computer by changing the settings in preferences or the options menu in your browser).

We also collect information when you voluntarily submit it to us. Throughout our site, we provide the opportunity to request for information, submit a query, register for an event or conference, order a white paper, or participate in an online survey. It is completely up to you whether or not you want to provide it.

How do we use this information?

We analyze it to determine what is most effective about our site, to help us identify ways to improve it, and eventually, to determine how we can tailor adoptforce.com to make it more effective. We may also use data for other purposes, which we would describe to you at the point we collect the information.

We also use this information to send out EDMs (Electronic Direct Mails) to announce the launch of our new services, invitations to our events and other informational mails from our senior management. Users may opt-out of receiving future mailings by choosing the unsubscribe option in the mail.

Will we share this with outside parties?

As a global organization, the data we collect may be transferred internationally throughout Adoptforce’ worldwide organization. We will not sell any individual’s information and will share it only with our employees and trusted partners. This site may contain links to other sites; Adoptforce is not responsible for the privacy practices or the content of such Web sites.

Do we give you access to your information?

You are entitled to know whether we hold information about you and, if we do, to have access to that information or if you require it to be corrected in case it is inaccurate, you can do so by sending us an e-mail at support@adoptforce.com.

What about data security?

We take appropriate steps to maintain the security of all your data on adoptforce.com. You should understand that the open nature of the Internet is such that data may flow over networks without security measures and may be accessed and used by people other than those for whom the data is intended. Having said that, this site has security measures in place to protect the loss, misuse, and/or alteration of information under our control. The data resides behind a firewall, with access restricted to authorized Adoptforce personnel.
