Privacy Policy

We take your privacy seriously and want your experience on www.agne.com (hereafter referred to as the "Site") to be both satisfying and safe. This Policy sets forth our intent to accomplish this result, and we urge you to read it carefully.

1. What this Policy covers. In order for us to properly and efficiently provide information to you, it may be necessary from time to time for us to collect information about you or the equipment or methods you use to visit the Site. Although we would use this information to better serve you, we understand your concerns about how this information may be used. Accordingly, this Policy explains how we use, and more importantly will NOT use, any personally identifiable information we may collect when you visit or utilize the Site. This Policy also covers our treatment of any personally identifiable information that our business partners share with us or that we may collect on or from a business partner's site.

2. What this Policy does not cover. Information Collection and Usage by us. Our primary goal in collecting personal information is to provide you with a smooth and efficient experience on the Site. We use information collected for the purpose of delivering information and soliciting email inquiries. We will not knowingly transfer your personal information to another party except as disclosed in this Policy. In general, we may gather certain usage information like the numbers and frequency of visitors to the Site. We only use such data in the aggregate. This collective data helps us determine how much our customers use parts of the Site, so we can improve the Site. We may also track certain information about your behavior on the Site. We use this information to do internal research on our users' demographics, interests, and behavior to better understand and serve you and our community. This information may include the URL that you came from (whether this URL is on our site or not), which URL you go to next (whether this URL is on our site or not), what browser you are using, and your IP address. We use information in the file we maintain about you, and other information we obtain from your current and past activities on the Site, to troubleshoot problems or enhance the Site’s efficiency.

3. Cookies. A cookie is information stored directly on the computer you are using, that interacts with the Site when you visit, to assist us in providing customized services. We may use cookies for a variety of purposes, such as to display information more effectively to our users or help us provide information which is targeted to your interest. Any time a cookie is used, personal information is encrypted for our use only and is protected from third party access. Additionally, you may encounter "cookies" or other similar devices on certain pages of the Site that are placed by third parties. We do not control the use of cookies by third parties, and their use of their cookies is subject to their privacy practices and not ours. When you visit the Site, we automatically receive the URL of the site from which you came and the site to which you are going when you leave the Site. We also receive the Internet protocol address of your computer, your computer operating system and type of web browser you are using, as well as the name of your ISP. This information is used to analyze overall trends to help us improve the Site.

4. Disclosure of your Personal Information. As a matter of policy, we do not sell or rent any personally identifiable information about you to any third party. We will not disclose your personally identifiable information to anyone other than us, except as provided in this Policy. We may disclose personally identifiable information about you to other companies or people if we are required to do so by applicable law. It is our policy to cooperate with all law enforcement inquiries, as well as other third parties to enforce laws, such as intellectual property rights, fraud and other rights. We may disclose (and you authorize us to disclose) any information about you to law enforcement in response to subpoenas or court orders, or other government officials or agencies as we, in our sole discretion, believe necessary or appropriate, in connection with an investigation of fraud, intellectual property infringements, or other activity that is a violation or potential violation of law or may expose us or you to legal liability. Due to the possibility of requirements from existing or future regulatory authorities or due to the current or future state of technology, we cannot ensure that all of your private communications and other personally identifiable information will never be disclosed in ways not otherwise described in this Policy. For purposes of illustration only, third parties may unlawfully intercept or access transmissions or private communications, or users may abuse or misuse your information that they collect from the Site. Therefore, although we attempt to achieve the stated goals of our privacy policies, as a matter of practicality we cannot and we do not promise, and you should not expect, that your personally identifiable information or private communications will always remain private.

5. Advertisers. If we collect from the data we receive personally identifiable information, such information will be disclosed to advertisers and other third parties for other marketing and promotional purposes only in a manner which does not personally identify that information (such as disclosing information in the aggregate, by reference to averages or trends, or by reference to a "user" without providing the personally identifying information for that user). We will not disclose to these entities any information that could be used to identify you personally (for example, your name or email address).

6. Security. Even though we utilize various security techniques to protect data from unauthorized access by users inside and outside the company, "perfect security" does not exist on the Internet. Please note that e-mail and internet traffic are not secure. To help safeguard your information, we suggest you remember to sign off once you have sent an email or completed an online session.

7. Spam. We do not condone "spam" or unsolicited junk e-mail. We are not responsible for this unfortunate activity, and cannot stop it from occurring when it originates from outside the Site. We will take reasonable action against any person who uses our email products as the launching pad for spam.

8. Change of Privacy Policy. We reserve the right to change this Policy from time to time. If we make any changes to this Policy, we will post those changes here so that you will always know what information we gather, how we might use that information and whether we will disclose it to anyone. In addition, we may communicate to you through email on the use of the Site.

9. Use of Site. Use of the Site constitutes acceptance of this Policy as it is now written and as it may be modified from time to time and appears on the Site. You specifically agree to check back on the Site from time to time to ensure that you are familiar with this Policy as it may exist from time to time, but also agree that you are bound by such Policy as the same may exist on these pages, whether or not you have actually viewed them in their then existing form.
