Information Gathered through the SecureScout Site
SecureScout will track the domains from which people visit the SecureScout Site in order to gain aggregate data that may be analyzed for trends and statistics. Subject to the provisions of this Privacy Statement, SecureScout may use accumulated aggregate data for several purposes including, but not limited to, marketing analysis, evaluation of SecureScout's services, and business planning.
SecureScout may conduct surveys or other studies of its user base and usage for marketing and planning purposes. Participation in such surveys is at the user's option, but SecureScout does reserve the right to conduct mandatory surveys in the future. With respect to information collected from such surveys or studies, and in the event that responses are to be publicly disclosed, users will be notified at the time they take the survey and SecureScout will disclose only aggregate information regarding its users and not personal information identifying any specific individual. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in cases where surveys allow users to submit written comments, and where SecureScout advises users of the possibility of such disclosure at the time they take the survey, SecureScout reserves the right to disclose text information provided by any user through such a survey, provided that no personal information identifying that user is disclosed. Circumstances under which SecureScout would publicly disclose aggregate information include, but are not limited to, sharing survey results with the site population, business planning, and publicizing overall usage data in press communications.
