1. What Information Do We Collect?

We collect two types of information through our website: “Personal Information” (or “PII”) and “Non-Personal Information” (or “Non-PII”). Personal Information is information that identifies you as an individual (such as your residential address, phone number, or billing information), and Non-Personal Information is wholesale information, demographic information, IP addresses, and other information that does not directly identify you.

a. Non-Personal Information: When you visit our site or interact with our site, Emc and third parties contracted by Emc to provide services may collect your Non-Personal Information (such as a catalog of the Site pages you visited). Non-Personal Information is anonymous and does not identify you personally. Non-Personal Information is usually collected through our Site from four different sources: Internet protocol addresses and web logs; cookies, pixel tags, and other similar technologies; and other Non-Personal Information you willingly provide as described below.

i. IP Protocol Addresses and Web Logs: We collect and store your IP address to diagnose problems on our servers, manage our website, ensure your access to the data service that will connect you with our website in the fastest way, and provide a personalized experience based on your preferences regarding the language used and the region accessed on the Site. Our website servers automatically collect the IP addresses and log files of visitors. Your IP address is automatically assigned by your Internet Service Provider (ISP) to your computer when you visit our Site. This number is automatically identified and stored in our server log files along with the time of your visit(s) and the page(s) you visited. This information is generally collected and does not contain any Personal Information.

ii. Cookies: We and third-party service providers may use a standard technology called “cookies” to collect information about how you use our site. Cookies stay on your computer and help your computer’s browser recognize our server. For example, when you log into your Emc account, cookies will be used to save your email address and name to speed up the process and simplify it for you. This way, when you visit from the same computer next time, we will “remember” your name and email address to expedite your transaction. From time to time, a “session cookie” that helps us manage our site may also be installed. The session cookie ends when you close your browser and does not retain any information about you after it ends. If you do not want information collected through cookies, you should change your browser preferences to present you with choices regarding cookies. If you choose to reject cookies, you may not be able to use certain services of our site (e.g., services requiring you to log in to the site). If Personal Data is collected through cookies, we will request your permission in accordance with the method and content detailed below, as required by the Law on Protection of Personal Data.

iii. Pixel Tags (Pixel Tags): We and our service providers may use “pixel tags,” “web beacons,” “clear GIFs” (collectively “Pixel Tags”) or similar tools and HTML-formatted email messages to track your use of our website following the pages of our site with Pixel Tags associated with the site’s pages. A Pixel Tag is typically an electronic image of one pixel (1X1) that is usually invisible to visitors to our site and can usually be associated with cookies on your hard drive. Pixel Tags allow us to count users who visit certain pages of our site that visitors do not see and are associated with cookies on visitors’ hard drives, allowing us to track users who visit certain pages of our site that visitors do not see. When used in HTML-formatted email messages, Pixel Tags can indicate whether an email has been opened to the sender.
