HOW DOES THIS PRIVACY POLICY DEFINE “PERSONAL INFORMATION”?
"Personal Information" means information that can be associated with a specific person and could reasonably be used to identify you and which is submitted to and/or collected by Aequa Web sites and maintained by Aequa in an accessible form. Examples of personal information include your name, your postal address, your telephone number, email address, financial profiles, identification number and credit card information.
HOW DOES AEQUA COLLECT INFORMATION ONLINE?
Aequa collects information in two ways:
-Personal Information you submit: Aequa collects personal information that you enter into data fields on Aequa Web sites. For example, you may submit your name, postal address, e-mail address, and/or other information in order to receive information about various subjects, contact Aequa customer service, or respond to Aequa surveys. To protect your privacy, you should not provide Aequa with any information that is not specifically requested or that you do not wish to share.
-Passive Collection of Unidentifiable Information: Aequa Web sites may collect information about your visits to Aequa Web sites without you actively submitting such information. Unidentifiable information may be collected using various technologies, such as cookies, Internet tags, and web beacons. Your Internet browser automatically transmits to Aequa Web sites some of this unidentifiable information, such as the URL of the Web site you just visited and the browser version your computer is operating. Passive information collection technologies can make your use of Aequa Web sites easier by allowing Aequa to provide better service, customize sites based on consumer preferences, analyze trends, and otherwise administer and improve Aequa Web sites. Information collected by these technologies cannot be used to identify you without additional identifiable information.
