Consumer Credit
Services (CSC) is committed to protecting any personal information
that you may provide to us. In particular, we believe it is
important for you to know how we treat information about you that
we may receive from this Web site.
Information
Collected
In general,
you can visit this Web site without telling us who you are or
revealing any information about yourself. Our web servers
collect the domain names, not the e-mail addresses, of visitors.
In addition, there are portions of this Web site where we may
need to collect personal information from you for a specific
purpose, such as to provide you with certain information you
request. The information collected from you may include your
name, address, telephone, fax number, or e-mail address. For
electronic access to annual reports and proxy statements, we
collect your tax identification number to verify your
shareholder status. For our supplier diversity site, we
necessarily collect information about gender and ethnicity, such
as whether your business is female-owned.
This Web site is not intended for persons under 13 years of age.
We do not knowingly solicit or collect personal information from
or about children, and we do not knowingly market our products
or services to children.
Use
of Collected Information
Domain name
information that we collect is not used to personally identify
you and instead is aggregated to measure the number of visits,
average time spent on the site, pages viewed, etc. We use this
information to measure the use of our site and to improve the
content of our site.
When other
information is collected from you, such as your name and e-mail
address, we generally let you know at the time of collection how
we will use the personal information. Usually, we use the
personal information you provide only to respond to your inquiry
or to process your request (such as to receive electronic annual
reports or to be added to our supplier diversity database). This
information may be shared with other CSC businesses, but only if
necessary to fulfill your request or for related purposes.
We may share the personal information you provide with other
companies we have hired to provide services for us. These
companies - our vendors - are contractually bound to use
personal information we share with them only to perform the
services we have hired them to provide. We do not share, sell,
or lease personal information about you to any third-parties for
their marketing use. We will release information about you if
you direct us to do so, if we are required by law to do so, or
in other legally limited circumstances (for example, to protect
your account from fraud).
If you register with one of CSC's business units online, they
may use this information to provide you with custom information
about CSC's offerings in support of your business needs. You
should review the privacy policy associated with that CSC
business' Web site for further information about that CSC
business' privacy practices. For example, a technology called
cookies may be used to provide you with tailored information. A
cookie is a tiny element of data that a Web site can send to
your browser, which may then be stored on your hard drive so we
can recognize you when you return. You may set your browser to
notify you when you receive a cookie.
Links
to Other Sites
CSC's Web
site may contain links to other sites such as CSC distributors
and sales affiliates. While we try to link only to sites that
share our high standards and respect for privacy, we are not
responsible for the content, security, or privacy practices
employed by other sites.
Security of Collected Information
We maintain
strict physical, electronic, and administrative safeguards to
protect your personal information from unauthorized or
inappropriate access. We restrict access to information about
you to those CSC workers who need to know the information to
respond to your inquiry or request. Workers who misuse personal
information are subject to disciplinary action.

this privacy policy, we will provide notice to you on this Web
site of any major changes for at least 30 days following the
