This Security and Privacy Statement, together with the LibertyID Terms and Conditions posted on our Website, set forth the general rules and policies governing your use of our Website. Depending on your activities when visiting our Website, you may be required to agree to additional terms and conditions.
Ascente Business Consulting, LLC, DBA LibertyID (“LibertyID”) keeps this Security and Privacy Statement posted on our Website. You should review it frequently, as it may change occasionally without notice. Any changes will be effective immediately upon the revised Security and Privacy Statement. WHEN YOU ACCESS OUR WEBSITE, YOU CONSENT TO THE TERMS OF THIS SECURITY AND PRIVACY STATEMENT. IF YOU DO NOT AGREE TO THIS SECURITY AND PRIVACY STATEMENT OR ANY CHANGES WE MAY SUBSEQUENTLY MAKE, IMMEDIATELY STOP ACCESSING OUR WEBSITE.
You will know you are in a secure area by the presence of “https” in the address link or a lock that appears on the bottom of your screen. The exact position of the lock depends upon which internet browser you are using. You may move in and out of secure areas when you visit our website. You will be in a secure area whenever you are on a registration page.
Additionally, LibertyID restricts access to information you provide only to those employees who need to know such information to provide and process the information you have requested or to investigate matters you have requested to be investigated. LibertyID maintains physical, electronic, and procedural safeguards to guard your information.
Privacy Policy
When visiting this Web site, LibertyID’s Web server will collect two types of information: (a) information that you provide that personally identifies you and (b) information that does not personally identify you that we automatically collect and store, such as the following information:
- The name of the domain from which you access the Internet
- The date and time you access this site
- The Internet address of the Web site from which you linked directly to this site
- This information is used for security and to measure the number of users on this site
When you visit our website, we assign your computer one or more “cookies.” A cookie is a small text file containing information we can later read to facilitate your access to our website and personalize your online experience.
We use both session ID cookies and persistent cookies. Specifically, we use session-based cookies in order to store language and other country-specific preferences, such as support contact information. LibertyID may also utilize cookies to track internal metrics of site usage. This information will never be provided or sold to third-party affiliates or marketing companies. A session ID cookie expires when you close your browser.
A persistent cookie remains on your hard drive for an extended period. Persistent cookies also enable us to track and target the interests of our users to enhance the experience on our site. You can remove persistent cookies by following the directions in your Internet browser’s “help” file.
Our Privacy Policy does not cover the use of cookies by our partners and tracking utility service providers. We do not have access or control over these cookies. Our partners and tracking utility service providers use persistent cookies to help us with site optimization.
Overall, cookies help us provide subscribers with a better experience by enabling us to monitor which pages you find useful and which you do not. A cookie does not give us access to your computer or any information about you other than the data you choose to share with us.
You can choose to accept or decline cookies. Most web browsers automatically accept cookies, but you can usually modify your browser settings to decline cookies if you prefer. However, this may prevent you from taking full advantage of the website.
Our third-party web analytics partner employs a software technology called clear gifs (a.k.a. Web Beacons/Web Bugs) that help us better manage content on our site by informing us what content is effective. Clear gifs are tiny graphics with a unique identifier, similar in function to cookies, and are used to track the online movements of Web users. In contrast to cookies, which are stored on a user’s computer hard drive, clear gifs are embedded invisibly on Web pages and are about the size of the period at the end of this sentence. We do not tie the information gathered by clear gifs to our subscribers’ personally identifiable information.
We may use clear gifs in our HTML-based e-mails to let us know which e-mails have been opened by recipients. This allows us to gauge the effectiveness of certain communications and the effectiveness of our marketing campaigns. If you would like to opt out of these e-mails, please contact us using the methods described below.
Our website may contain links to other websites of interest. However, once you have used these links to leave our site, you should note that we do not have any control over that other website. Therefore, we cannot be responsible for the protection and privacy of any information you provide while visiting such sites. This Privacy Policy does not govern such sites. You should exercise caution and look at the privacy statement applicable to the website in question.
Personally identifiable information: Our definition of personally identifiable information includes any information that may be used to specifically identify or contact you, such as your name, postal and email addresses, phone number, credit card information, etc. In certain circumstances, we may request, allow, or otherwise provide you an opportunity to submit your personally identifiable information in connection with a feature, a service, or some other aspect of our Website. For instance, you may: (a) provide your name, address, and email address to register on our Website to use software services or applications; (b) provide certain demographic information about yourself (e.g., age, gender, purchase, preference, usage, frequency, etc.) when registering on our Website; (c) provide payment information when ordering products or services on the Website, or (d) post a general comment and recommendation on our Website. Certain information may not be personally identifiable when standing alone (e.g., your age) but may become so when combined with other information (e.g., your age and name). Whether or not you provide this information is your choice; however, this type of information is often required to participate in or purchase a particular activity or service or gain access to certain content on our Website.
We have appropriate physical, technical, and organizational measures in place to protect your data when held by LibertyID that comply with relevant legal and best practice requirements. When you enter sensitive information (such as a credit card number) as part of the enrollment process, we encrypt the transmission of that information using secure socket layer technology (SSL). When you submit information to us through our Website, you should be aware that your information is transmitted across the Internet and that no method of transmission over the Internet is 100% secure. Although we take reasonable security measures to protect your information when we receive it, you also need to ensure you take appropriate steps to protect your information. We will obtain assurances from any agents we may use to help provide this service that they will safeguard personal information consistently with this Privacy Policy.
The personally identifiable information collected through our Website is generally used to fulfill your requests for our products, programs, and services, to respond to your inquiries about our offerings, to personalize your online experience, and in other ways naturally associated with the circumstances in which you provided the information. We also may use this information to contact you later for a variety of reasons, such as customer service, offering you other products, programs, or services that we believe may be of interest to you, or communicating with you about the content or additional information you have posted or shared with us via our Website. We may share your personally identifiable information with third parties, such as our partners, contractors, vendors, consultants, and professional advisors, to the extent necessary for them to perform services on our behalf. We may disclose personally identifiable information in response to a legal process or law enforcement request. We also may disclose personally identifiable information if we believe it is necessary to investigate, prevent, or take action regarding illegal activities, suspected fraud, situations involving potential threats to the physical safety of any person, violations of our terms of use, or as otherwise required by law. In addition, in the event of a merger, acquisition, or any form of sale of some or all of our assets to a third party, we may also disclose your personal information to the third parties concerned or their professional advisors. In the event of such a transaction, the personal information held by LibertyID will be among the assets transferred to the buyer.
We use the non-personally identifiable information that we collect in a variety of ways, including to administer the Website, help us analyze site traffic, understand customer needs and trends, carry out targeted promotional activities, improve the quality of the pages that make up our Website, gather broad demographic information, and to improve our Website services. We may use your non-personal information by itself or aggregate it with information we have obtained from others. We may share your non-personal information with our affiliated companies and third parties to achieve these objectives and others. In no event is this information matched to your personally identifiable information, and aggregate information is anonymous information that does not personally identify you.
If you send us an email with questions or comments, we may use your personally identifiable information to respond to your questions or comments, and we may save your questions or comments for future reference. For security reasons, we do not recommend that you send non-public personal information, such as passwords, credit card information, social security numbers, or bank account information, to us by email. However, aside from our reply to such an email, it is not our standard practice to send you an email unless you request a particular service or sign up for a feature that involves email communications that relate to purchases you have made with us (e.g., product updates, customer support, etc.), we are sending you information about our other products and services, or you consented to be contacted by email for a particular purpose. In certain instances, we may provide you with the option to set your preferences for receiving email communications from us; that is, agree to some communications but not others. We reserve the right to send you transactional emails like customer service communications. If you provide a contact e-mail address, you may receive the newsletter published by LibertyID by e-mail.
Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, we reserve the right to disclose any personally identifiable or non-personal information about you if we are required to do so by law with respect to copyright and other intellectual property infringement claims or if we believe that such action is necessary: (a) to fulfill a government request; (b) to conform with the requirements of the law or legal process; (c) to protect or defend our legal rights or property, our Website, or other users; or (d) in an emergency, to protect the health and safety of our Website’s users or the general public.
Whether or not you provide personally identifiable information is completely your own choice. You are not obligated to answer any question presented to you on or through our Website. You may opt-out from receiving future promotional information from our affiliated companies or us or direct that we not share your information with any affiliated companies, as set forth below. Whether or not you opt-out is your choice; however, in many instances, this type of information is required to participate in a particular activity, realize a benefit we may offer, or gain access to certain content, services, or offers on our Website.
We take special care to protect the safety and privacy of children. Our site is a general audience site. Nevertheless, the features, programs, promotions, services, and other aspects of our Website requiring the submission of personally identifiable information are not intended for anyone under 18 years of age. No one under the age of 13 may provide any information to or on the Website. We do not knowingly collect personally identifiable information from children under the age of 13. If you are under the age of 13, do not use or provide any information on this Website or on or through any of its features/register on the Website, make any purchases through the Website, use any of the interactive or public comment features of this Website or provide any information about yourself to us, including your name, address, telephone number, e-mail address or any screen name or user name you may use. If you are a parent or guardian of a child under the age of 13 and believe they have disclosed personally identifiable information to us, please contact us toll-free at 844-44-LIBERTY (844-445-4237). If we learn we have collected or received personal information from a child under the age of 13 without verification of parental consent, we will delete that information.
We have implemented security measures that we consider reasonable and appropriate to protect against the loss, misuse, and alteration of the information under our control. Please be advised, however, that while we strive to protect your personally identifiable information and privacy, we cannot guarantee or warrant the security of any information you disclose or transmit to us online and are not responsible for the theft, destruction, or inadvertent disclosure of your personally identifiable information. In the unfortunate event that your “personally identifiable information” (as the term or similar terms are defined by any applicable law requiring notice upon a security breach) is compromised, we shall notify you by e-mail (to the extent required by applicate law) to the last e-mail address you have provided to us (or in such other manner to the extent required by law) in the most expedient time reasonable under the circumstances; provided, however, delays in notification may occur while we take necessary measures to determine the scope of the breach and restore reasonable integrity to the system as well as for the legitimate needs of law enforcement if notification would impede a criminal investigation. We evaluate new technology for protecting information from time to time, and when appropriate, we upgrade our information security systems.
