Privacy Policy
 

This Web site is owned and controlled by ESI OnDemand. 

ESI OnDemand is committed to implementing measures designed to protect the privacy of those using our services. Although ESI OnDemand respects the privacy of all those who visit our Site and use our online services, we do collect information from and about our users. Except as set forth within this Privacy Policy, our Terms of Use, and other published guidelines, we do not release personally identifiable information (as described below) about users of this Site without their permission.

Effect of This and Related Documents: This Privacy Policy, together with our Terms of Use and other published guidelines, governs your interaction with this Site, and your registration for and use of ESI OnDemand online services.

Periodic Policy Changes: Please note that ESI OnDemand reviews its privacy practices from time to time (e.g., to track technology and/or legal changes), and that those practices are subject to change. We ask that you bookmark and periodically review this page to ensure continuing familiarity with the most current version of our privacy policy.

The Information We May Gather

Non-personally-identifiable information:

(a) General: When users come to our Site, we collect and aggregate information indicating their home server, but not their e-mail addresses. Such information helps us identify the most popular content and portions of our Site and determine the effectiveness of our various promotional activities. We aggregate such information for internal review and thereafter it's superseded by more recent information.

(b) "Cookies": We also use "cookies" -- that is, small text files placed on your computer's hard drive -- to help you in getting faster access to this Site's contents, and to help us determine the type of content you find of interest and the sites to which you link, the length of time you spend at any particular area of this Site, and the particular ESI OnDemand services you choose to use. Cookies are only read by the server that placed them, and are unable to execute any code or virus. Cookies allow ESI OnDemand to serve you better, and to personalize your Web-browsing experience. Nevertheless, you should be able to control how and whether cookies will be accepted by your Web browser. For more information on how to do this, please refer to the documentation accompanying your browser or third party Web sites.

Personally Identifiable Information:

(a) General: In certain areas of this Site, we require that you provide us with personally-identifiable information, in order to be able to use that portion or those portions of this Site. For instance, the names and contact information of persons who visit our Web sites are added to our data base (presently maintained in Houston, Texas, USA) so that, for example, they may be contacted in the future regarding ESI OnDemand products, services or future opportunities. Such contact may occur by email, telephone or mail, as ESI OnDemand deems appropriate.  

(b) Lack of ESI OnDemand Responsibility For Third Party Content On Site: ESI OnDemand cannot and does not control the acts of the users of its Web site's services or monitor the accuracy of postings by such users. All users should be aware that, when they disclose personally identifiable information in a bulletin board, chat room, or other forum or public area of this Site, the information might be collected, circulated, and used by others.

How We Use The Information We Gather

How We Use Non-Personally Identifiable Information: We aggregate data on users' home servers for internal review purposes, in order to build higher quality, more useful online services and better products, e.g., by performing statistical analyses of the collective characteristics and behavior of our users. Following such internal review, such aggregated information is then superseded by more recent information.

How We Use Personally-Identifiable Information: ESI OnDemand provides notice to users that personally-identifiable (i.e., non-aggregated) information will be collected during the Web-browsing process; this Privacy Policy also serves as notice that such information is collected under those circumstances. ESI OnDemand may use such information to enhance your experience by providing such information to appropriate third parties, including any outsourcers, as reviewed and selected by ESI OnDemand.

ESI OnDemand reserves the right to disclose information contained in our access logs concerning any user as we reasonably feel is necessary to protect our systems or business. In particular, we reserve the right to disclose such when a user is in violation of our current or later Terms of Use or other published guidelines, or initiates or participates (or is reasonably believed so) in any illegal activity, even without a subpoena, warrant, or other court order, and to disclose such information in response to court and governmental orders, civil subpoenas, Electronic Discovery requests, and as otherwise required by law.

In reviewing the information above, please keep in mind that ESI OnDemand cannot and does not assume any responsibility for any actions or omissions of third parties, including other Site users, including the manner in which they might use information received either from ESI OnDemand or independently.
