Privacy Policy
General Information
SKYDATA respects the privacy of our customers, business partners
and employees. We recognize the need for appropriate protections
and management of your personal information that you provide to
us. SKYDATA has therefore established this Privacy Statement to
assist you to understand what information we collect and how that
information is used. This Privacy Statement applies to SKYDATA Corporation
including its Divisions and Subsidiaries.
What personal information does SKYDATA collect?
Personal Information is information that can be used to identify
or contact a specific individual, such as a name, address, telephone
number or email address. SKYDATA may collect certain personal information
from customers, business partners, employees and candidates for
employment. SKYDATA does not collect personal information when you
visit SKYDATA's web sites unless you choose to provide such personal
information.
On SKYDATA web sites you can order products or services, register
products, request information, subscribe to marketing or support
materials, register to a secure extranet site to obtain access to
product information, support, services and training, or apply for
jobs at SKYDATA. The types of personal information you provide to
us on these pages may include name, address, phone number, e-mail
address, user IDs and passwords, billing and transaction information,
credit card or other financial information, contact preferences,
educational and employment background, job interest data and benefit
choices.
How does SKYDATA use personal information?
SKYDATA will use personal information to provide customers and business
partners with information and services and to help us better understand
your needs and interests. Specifically, we use your information
to help you complete a transaction or order, to communicate with
you, to deliver products/services to you, to bill you for products/services
you purchased, and to provide ongoing service and support. Occasionally
we may use your information to contact you to complete surveys that
we use for marketing and quality assurance purposes. Personal information
collected online may be combined with information you provide to
SKYDATA through other sources such as trade shows or seminars.
SKYDATA may share your personal information with third parties
in responding to your requests for products or services or product
evaluations. Also, we may on occasion allow selected partners to
send you special offers in blind mailings. Generally, you will be
given the opportunity to opt out of having your personal information
shared with these third parties. However, if you request information
on any of our products/services, SKYDATA may provide your information
to third party distributors and resellers who may subsequently contact
you directly to purchase such products/services. In these instances,
you will not have the opportunity to opt out of having your information
shared with these third party distributors and resellers.
To the extent that SKYDATA uses personal information to email you
about our product and services, SKYDATA's email practices are in
compliance with current regulations.
Except as provided in this Statement, SKYDATA does not use your
personal information for a purpose other than the stated purpose
for which such information is collected.
Personal information given to SKYDATA may be transferred across
state and country borders for data consolidation, storage and simplified
information management.
With whom does SKYDATA share personal information?
SKYDATA contracts with third party service providers and suppliers
to deliver complete products, services and customer solutions. SKYDATA
may share personal information with its service providers and suppliers
for the sole purpose and only to the extent needed to support the
customers' business needs. Service providers and suppliers are required
to keep confidential the personal information received from SKYDATA
and may not use it for any purpose other than as originally intended.
Third parties receiving personal information are expected to apply
the same level of privacy protection as contained in this Privacy
Statement.
Except as provided above, SKYDATA will not share personal information
with any other third parties without your permission, unless required
by, or in connection with, law enforcement action, subpoena or other
litigation, or applicable law.
SKYDATA will not sell, trade or lease your personal information
to others.
Choice and Consent
SKYDATA does not require that you provide SKYDATA with personal
information. The decision to provide personal information is voluntary.
If you do not wish to provide the personal information requested,
however, you may not be able to proceed with the activity or receive
the benefit for which the personal information is being requested.
Except as expressly stated otherwise in this Privacy Statement,
you may opt out of having SKYDATA share personal information with
third parties as described in this Privacy Statement by notifying
SKYDATA in writing of your desire to do so.

subsequently authorized by the individual, as required by applicable
law.
