NETSTAIRS ENHANCED DATA AND CONSUMER PRIVACY

NETSTAIRS provides market-leading managed services to business Clients for powering rich media, dynamic transactions, and enterprise applications online. Some of these services help publishers and advertisers across our Client base gather non-personally identifiable information about and gain better insight into their consumer end users which, in turn, enables our Clients to provide more personalized on-line experiences, including through better targeted advertising.

Information We May Collect About Consumers

The information that NETSTAIRS finds useful to provide the enhanced data services mentioned above does not require the identification of individual people. Eclsuding when visitor completes a registration or webform, as a policy, NETSTAIRS does not collect, store, or use personally identifiable information such as names, addresses, e-mails, phone numbers or social security numbers from the consumer end users of our business Clients on our own behalf. NETSTAIRS also does not integrate the information we collect with names, addresses, e-mails, or other data in a way that would allow us to identify any individual person. Among the ways NETSTAIRS provides this insight to our Clients is by gathering statistical and user preference data about consumers through the use of cookies and other similar mechanisms. The information we may collect includes web analytics information, URLs, usage data regarding pages viewed, date and time, browser type, domain type, geographic location information, and other non-personally identifiable information. From time to time, we may also use cookies and other similar mechanisms to collect, store, and use information about your computer system and associate this information with other non-personally identifiable information. NETSTAIRS retains the non-personally identifiable information we collect for no more than twelve months.

Using Data to Provide Better Insight

As mentioned above, NETSTAIRS uses the non-personally identifiable information we collect to provide our business Clients with better insight into their consumer end users, thereby enabling them to provide more personalized on-line experiences, including through better targeted advertising. In addition, NETSTAIRS may use the information we collect to support and complete current on-line interactions between our business Clients and their consumer end users, to facilitate Web site and system administration, and for research and development. NETSTAIRS may also distribute the information we collect on our own behalf to other NETSTAIRS companies, our agents, and our business Clients, so long as they agree not to integrate such information with names, addresses, e-mails or other data in a way that would allow them to identify an individual person. On occasion, NETSTAIRS acts as a service provider providing back-end services to a specific business Client and collects information from that Client’s websites. In those instances, the use of the data is governed by that business Client’s privacy policy.

How to Contact Us

As specified above, in providing managed services and creating NETSTAIRS enhanced data, NETSTAIRS seeks to maintain the anonymity of individuals whose data may be collected, used, or disclosed by NETSTAIRS. NETSTAIRS wants to know if you believe your personally identifiable information has been improperly used, and is prepared to respond appropriately. Should you have reason to believe NETSTAIRS or our business Clients have failed to protect your personally identifiable data properly, we want to know about it. Please contact us at [email protected]. We will act expeditiously to remove or to disable access to any identifiable personal information regarding an individual we may have stored upon obtaining actual knowledge of the fact that the information may have been obtained in violation of a privacy law or agreement.

Consumer Choice

NETSTAIRS believes in giving consumers choice. To enable this choice, we provide consumers with the ability to opt out of allowing NETSTAIRS to collect non-personally identifiable information to enable our business Clients to customize their Web sites through targeted advertising. If you would like to exercise your right to opt-out of this use of your non-personally identifiable information, send an email to [email protected]. When you opt-out using this method NETSTAIRS will place an opt-out cookie on your browser. You should note that if you delete, block or otherwise restrict cookies, or if you use a different computer or browser, you may need to renew your opt-out choice. Once you have opted out, NETSTAIRS will no longer use information we have collected to help deliver targeted advertisements. However, we may use such information for related purposes described above, including to support and complete current on-line interactions between our business Clients and their consumer end users, to facilitate Web site and system administration, and for research and development, as well as for other purposes unrelated to targeted advertising.

Prior to January 2010, you should opt-out again using the NAI’s consumer opt-out page located at http://www.Platformsadvertising.org/managing/opt_out.asp to ensure that your choice is saved and recognized by NETSTAIRS.

II. PERSONALLY IDENTIFIABLE INFORMATION ON INDIVIDUAL CONSUMERS.

1. Except as required by law or recognized public policy, NETSTAIRS will not knowingly collect, store or use sensitive personal data, except with the individual’s permission. As specified above, in distributing content, streaming media, and delivering applications for our business Clients, NETSTAIRS generally has no direct relationship with consumers and does not collect personally identifiable data on them. However, the Internet is evolving with incredible speed, and so is NETSTAIRS. We don’t want to wait until the day our business involves many direct relationships with consumers to have a consumer privacy policy. So NETSTAIRS wants you to know that the company and our subsidiaries will not knowingly collect, use or disclose sensitive personal data, except with the individual’s permission, or under one of the principles specified in applicable U.S. and international privacy laws, discussed below. Sensitive personal data includes personal data revealing racial or ethnic origin, political opinions, religious or philosophical beliefs, health or sexual activity.

2. NETSTAIRS recognizes standard domestic and international legal and public policy exceptions to non-disclosure. Important exceptions to the general rule of non-disclosure without permission have been codified internationally in such privacy laws as the 1995 EU Privacy Directive, Title V of the U.S. Financial Services Modernization Act in 1999, and Canada’s Personal Information Protection Act (C-6). In general, information processors such as NETSTAIRS may collect, maintain and use personally identifiable information that could be considered sensitive or controversial with the consent of the subject of the personally identifiable information, or when the processing is necessary for the performance of a task carried out in the public interest, such as processing or publication of material from public record sources or the public media. In addition, NETSTAIRS recognizes other standard legal and public policy exceptions to non-disclosure set forth in these and other relevant statutes. NETSTAIRS may therefore collect, use and disclose personally identifiable information necessary for the establishment, exercise or defense of legal claims, as required by law, or where the collection, use and disclosure is necessary for the purposes of preventive medicine, medical diagnosis, the provision of care or treatment or the management of health-care services. For example, NETSTAIRS may maintain such data in our system for a business Client using NETSTAIRS to store or process health insurance records for the purposes of the coordination of insurance benefits, in conformity with applicable national privacy and security requirements. As provided by applicable U.S. federal law, NETSTAIRS may also disclose personally identifiable information without the consent of the individual to protect the confidentiality or security of the firm’s records pertaining to the Client, the service or product, or the transaction, to protect against or prevent actual or potential fraud, for institutional risk control, to resolve Client disputes or injuries, and for various other purposes provided by law.

3. NETSTAIRS will provide consumers meaningful notice and choice before collecting personally identifiable information on them. While today most of the data that streams through or is maintained by NETSTAIRS is selected by NETSTAIRS’ business clients, NETSTAIRS and our related companies may offer services directly to consumer Clients. In such cases, NETSTAIRS is committed to providing consumers meaningful notice and choice before collecting personally identifiable information on them from non-public sources. If we sell all or part of our business or make a sale or transfer of assets or are otherwise involved in a merger or business transaction, we may transfer your personally identifiable information to a third party as part of that transaction as long as the acquirer agrees to comply with this privacy policy or has in place a substantially similar privacy policy. NETSTAIRS will provide anyone who becomes a consumer Client of NETSTAIRS with the ability to opt out of the provision of personally identifiable information for any purpose other than the service authorized by the consumer.

4. NETSTAIRS will use our best efforts to stop the processing of any disputed personally identifiable information upon notification by an individual that there may be a problem. If you believe NETSTAIRS may be processing or maintaining sensitive or personally identifiable information pertaining to you without your consent, or in violation of applicable domestic or international laws, please let us know at [email protected]. We will act expeditiously to disable access to any sensitive or personally identifiable information about you we may have obtained, while we work to investigate your complaint and to resolve the problem.

5. NETSTAIRS will respect FTC regulations and other applicable federal and state laws governing the handling of personally identifiable information in connection with the purchase, sale, or transfer of the assets of a business. Recent federal bankruptcy litigation and FTC actions have highlighted new questions regarding the handling of personally identifiable information in connection with the resolution of a company’s assets involving the liquidation of those assets. These questions may also have implications for the purchase, sale or transfer of personally identifiable information in connection with other forms of corporate restructuring. Although this area of U.S. law has been in flux, NETSTAIRS is committed to respecting FTC regulations and any other applicable state and federal laws regarding the purchase, sale or transfer of personally identifiable information in connection with any form of purchase, sale or transfer of the assets of a business.

6. NETSTAIRS does not currently knowingly collect, use and disclose personally identifiable data on children under the age of 13. NETSTAIRS will comply with the Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act of 1998 if NETSTAIRS were to offer services to children under the age of 13. In general, any data on children that might be processed or stored by NETSTAIRS would be processed without modification through NETSTAIRS’ role as an intermediary services provider for other businesses. In the event that NETSTAIRS were to collect, use or disclose personally identifiable data on children on its own behalf and not as an intermediary services provider, NETSTAIRS will comply with the Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act of 1998 (“COPPA”) at that time, including but not limited to by obtaining verifiable parental consent, offering choice regarding disclosures to third parties, and providing parental access to information.

The data may be stored for indefinite period of time, as determined by the technical requirements NETSTAIRS develops through working with our business Clients.

6. As a global company, NETSTAIRS acknowledges the importance of international standards to protect personal privacy.

NETSTAIRS expects any of our Clients who we collect, use or disclosure such information and who use NETSTAIRS to process that information to adhere to fair information privacy standards, including the following principles: Notice and Communication. We expect our business clients to communicate explicitly with consumers and other end-users about data collection and use and to identify the purpose for which personally identifiable information is collected and the extent to which it may be shared, by prominently posting clear, human-readable privacy policies on their business to consumer web sites. Preference, Consent and Manage. NETSTAIRS expects business clients to limit their requests for information from consumers to the information necessary for fulfilling the level of service desired by the user. We expect them to obtain informed consent prior to the collection and use of personally identifiable information and to provide users information about their ability to review and when appropriate to correct personally identifiable information. Among the rewards of such an approach are reduced user frustration, increased trust, and the facilitation of consumer relationships through anonymous, customized, or personalized relationships, as appropriate, between our business Clients and their consumer Clients. Fairness & Integrity. NETSTAIRS expects its business clients to treat users and their personally identifiable information with fairness and integrity. We expect our business Clients accurately to represent their information practices in a clear and unambiguous manner, to use information only for the purpose stated and retain the information only so long as is necessary, to ensure that information is accurate, complete and up-to-date, and to provide the means to insure accountability and provide recourse.
