2. SECURITY: MÁS WIRED maintains commercially reasonable safeguards to ensure the security, integrity and privacy of the Personal Information provided by you. Such security safeguards are intended to be appropriate to the sensitivity of the Personal Information collected. To the extent MÁS WIRED transfers any Personal Information to third-parties, MÁS WIRED will use commercially reasonable efforts to assure that such third-parties to whom We may transfer any Personal Information have knowledge of our Privacy Policy and provide sufficient protection of such Personal Information. In particular, MÁS WIRED requires that a secure session be established using Secure Socket Layer (SSL) and Secure Electronic Transaction (SET) protocol when you submit Personal Information to us through your use of the Site to make a donation, input information for payment, and access certain pages. We are committed to properly securing the Personal Information collected online. To help us accomplish this, we take the following steps, and we require our third party service providers to take the following steps: (i) we employ internal access controls to ensure that the only people who see your information are those with a need to do so to perform their official duties; (ii) we train relevant personnel on our privacy and security measures; (iii) we physically secure the areas where we hold hard copies of the information that we collect online; (iv) we regularly back up the information that we collect online to insure against loss; (v) we use technical controls to secure the information that we collect online as appropriate, including but not limited to, Secure Socket Layer (SSL), encryption, firewalls, password protections; and (vi) we periodically test our security procedures to ensure personnel and technical compliance. Please note that all Personal Information stored on the Site will be collected, stored and processed in the United States of America.
3. COOKIES AND WEB BEACONS: The Site may utilize standard technologies (such as a “cookie” or “web beacon”) to collect information about how the Site is used. A “cookie” is a small text file placed on your hard drive by our web page servers. A “web beacon” is a object that is embedded in a web page or e-mail and is usually invisible to the user but allows checking that a user has viewed the page or e-mail. These cookies and web beacons do not collect Personal Information, only Aggregate Information, and we do not combine Aggregate Information collected through cookies or web beacons with other Personal Information to determine who you are or what your e-mail address is. The Site can access the Aggregate Information only from a cookie or web beacon sent by the Site. We cannot access other cookies sent by other web sites or the information contained therein. Additionally, we cannot learn your email address through the use of a cookie or web beacon; however we will collect an IP Address from all visitors to the Site, which is a number that is automatically assigned to your computer when you use the Internet. We use IP addresses and web beacons to help diagnose problems with our server, administer our Site, analyze trends, track users’ movement on the Site, gather broad demographic information for aggregate use in order for us to improve the Site, and deliver targeted content. The only way we would learn such Personal Information is if you specifically submit that Personal Information to us, for example, by making a donation, by setting up a user account, by requesting information, etc. We use cookies and web beacons to customize your experience when you are visiting the Site. By tracking usage, we can best determine what features of the Site best serve the users. Without cookies or web beacons, the Site would “forget” items that may be stored, such as previously viewed product specifications, when you go to a different page. The session information used by the Site is deleted when your browser is closed. We may use cookies and web beacons to track banner advertisement and article review usage. We do provide third parties with Aggregate Information about our users, such as “200 people viewed the following article today,” as more fully set forth below. On those pages of the Site not requiring your registration, you may decline to accept cookies sent by the Site by selecting an option on your browser to reject cookies. However, some portions of the Site may require registration in order to access those areas, such as an account login. In such case, we ask that you register and provide us with basic information on our registration page. Cookies and web beacons enable our server to know that you are a registered user; therefore, our registration system requires that you accept the cookies and web beacons from the Site. Other sites linked to the Site also may send cookies; however we do not control such activities. We also may use a unique assigned number located with each Site’s URL to determine the web site from which you navigated to get to the particular Site. While this number may not be apparent to you, it does not contain your Personal Information.
