Privacy Policy

The ACTA is committed to protecting the privacy and security of web site visitors. Visitors can visit http://www.part68.org without providing any personal information to the ACTA. The ACTA does not obtain personally identifying information about Visitors to the site unless they choose to provide such information to the ACTA.

The ACTA collects personally identifiable information only if specifically and knowingly provided by Visitors. Any information collected within the context of an email inquiry or comment made in connection to the ACTA web site is used only for the expressed purpose of responding to that inquiry or comment. The ACTA does not give, sell, or rent Visitor information to third parties for commercial marketing. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the ACTA reserves the right to access and/or disclose user information as required by courts and/or administrative agencies and to the extent required to permit us to investigate suspected fraud, harassment or other violations of law or the ACTA web site rules or policies.

We will only use your personal data when the law allows us to. Most commonly, we will use your personal data in the following circumstances:

• Where we need to perform a service or contract we have entered into with you.
• Where we keep you informed about our activities or relevant news or information as contained in newsletters, press releases etc., for the receipt of which you have explicitly signed up.
• Where it is necessary for authentication, navigation within and use of the ACTA web site.
• Where it is necessary for our legitimate interests (or those of a third party) and your interests and fundamental rights do not override those interests.
• Where we need to comply with a legal or regulatory obligation.

The ACTA collects non-personal information for various reasons, including site management or for statistical purposes. These statistics include no personal information.

By using the ACTA web site, Visitors are deemed to have consented to the collection, use, and storage of personal and non-personal information as described in this policy.

Change of purpose

We will only use your personal data for the purposes for which we collected it, unless we reasonably consider that we need to use it for another reason and that reason is compatible with the original purpose. If you wish to get an explanation as to how the processing for the new purpose is compatible with the original purpose, please contact us via [acta@atis.org].
If we need to use your personal data for an unrelated purpose, we will notify you and we will explain the legal basis which allows us to do so.

When we receive your personal information, your personal information may be transferred, processed and stored outside of your country of residence, including in the United States. In addition, some of the recipients of your personal information may be located in countries (including the United States) that do not provide a level of data protection equivalent to that set forth by the European Union and some other jurisdictions. If you choose to access or use the programs or services offered by the ACTA, you consent to the transfer, use and disclosure of information in accordance with this Privacy Policy and subject to such applicable laws.

Security

To prevent unauthorized access, maintain data accuracy, and ensure the appropriate use of information, the ACTA has put into place appropriate physical, electronic, and managerial procedures to safeguard and secure the information it collects online.
