Personally-Identifying Information
Certain users of the Website choose to interact with WestLAN Data Networks in ways that require WestLAN Data Networks to gather personally-identifying information. The amount and type of information that WestLAN Data Networks gathers depends on the nature of the interaction. For example, we ask users who contact us though the Contact Us page or to file a return via the Returns Form to provide a name, company name, address, phone number and an email address. Those who engage in transactions with WestLAN Data Networks are asked to provide additional personally-identifying information, including, as necessary, their first and last name, physical address, telephone number, and additional data such as financial information required to process those transactions. In each case, WestLAN Data Networks collects such information only insofar as is necessary or appropriate to fulfil the purpose of the user interaction with WestLAN Data Networks. WestLAN Data Networks does not share personally-identifying information other than as described below. Users can always refuse to supply personally-identifying information, with the caveat that it may prevent them from engaging in certain Website-related activities.
Sharing of Personally-Identifying Information
WestLAN Data Networks shares personally-identifying information only with those of its employees, contractors and affiliated organizations that (i) need to know that information in order to process it on WestLAN Data Networks’ behalf or to provide services available through the Website, and (ii) that have agreed not to disclose it to others. For instance, WestLAN Data Networks uses third party vendors and hosting partners to provide the necessary hardware, software, networking, data storage, and related technology required to run the services available through the Website. Some of those employees, contractors and affiliated organizations may be located outside of your home country; by using the Website you consent to the transfer of such information to them and their potential sub-contractors. WestLAN Data Networks will not rent or sell personally-identifying information to anyone. Other than to its employees, contractors and affiliated organizations, as described above, WestLAN Data Networks discloses personally-identifying information only when required to do so by law, or when WestLAN Data Networks believes in good faith that disclosure is reasonably necessary to protect the property or rights of WestLAN Data Networks, third parties or the public at large.
Use of Email Addresses and Push Notifications
If you are a user of the Website and have supplied your email address, WestLAN Data Networks may occasionally send you an email to tell you about new features, solicit your feedback, or just keep you up to date with what is going on with WestLAN Data Networks and our products. We primarily use our various product blogs to communicate this type of information, so we expect to keep this type of email to a minimum.
Protection of Information
WestLAN Data Networks takes all measures reasonably necessary to protect against the unauthorized access, use, alteration, loss, or destruction of personally-identifying information.
Do-Not-Track Disclosures
Neither WestLAN Data Networks nor any third party engages in the collection of personally-identifiable information about your online activities over time and across third-party websites or online services when you are accessing or using the Website. For this reason, the Website does not respond to “Do Not Track” signals or other mechanisms providing you the ability to exercise choice regarding the collection of such information.
Age Limitation
The Website is not directed and should not be available to children under 16 years of age. We do not knowingly collect any kind of personal information from children under 16 years of age. If you are under the age of 16, do not use the Website or otherwise provide us with personal information. If we become aware that such information has been collected, we will immediately delete such information. If any parent or guardian learns or otherwise becomes aware of a child under 13 years of age using the Website or otherwise providing personal information to us, please contact us.
