Privacy Policy
Our Privacy Policy was developed as an extension of our commitment to combine the
highest-quality products and services with the highest level of integrity in dealing
with our customers and visitors to our Web site. The Policy is designed to assist
you in understanding how we collect, use the personal information you provide to
us and to assist you in making informed decisions when using our site and our products
and services.
What Information Do We Collect?
When you visit our Web site you may provide us with two types of information: personal
information you knowingly choose to disclose that is collected on an individual
basis and Web site use information collected on an aggregate basis as you and others
browse our Web site.
1. Personal Information You Choose to Provide
Registration Information
You will provide us information about yourself, your firm or company, and your practices
when you register for certain services, or register for email newsletters and alerts.

For example, you may need to provide the following information:
• Name
• Mailing address
• Email address
• Credit card number
• Home and business phone and fax numbers
Email Information
If you choose to correspond with us through email, we may retain the content of
your email messages together with your email address and our responses. We provide
the same protections for these electronic communications that we employ in the maintenance
of information received by mail and telephone.
2. Web Site Use Information
Similar to other commercial Web sites, our Web site utilizes a standard technology
called "cookies" (see explanation below, "What Are Cookies?") and Web server logs
to collect information about how our Web site is used. Information gathered through
cookies and Web server logs may include the date and time of visits, the pages viewed,
time spent at our Web site, and the Web sites visited just before and just after
our Web site.
How Do We Use the Information That You Provide to Us?
We use personal information for purposes of administering our business activities,
providing customer service and making available other products and services to our
customers and prospective customers. Occasionally, we may also use the information
we collect to notify you about important changes to our Web site, new services and
special offers we think you will find valuable. You may notify us at any time if
you do not wish to receive these offers by emailing us at support@eodessa.com
What Are Cookies?
A cookie is a very small text document, which often includes an anonymous unique
identifier. When you visit a Web site, that site's computer asks your computer for
permission to store this file in a part of your hard drive specifically designated
for cookies. Each Web site can send its own cookie to your browser if your browser's
preferences allow it, but your browser only permits a Web site to access the cookies
it has already sent to you, not the cookies sent to you by other sites.
How Do We Use Information We Collect from Cookies?
As you shop on our Web site, the site uses its cookies to differentiate you from
other shoppers so your shopping cart is only available to you. In some cases, we
also use cookies to prevent you from seeing unnecessary advertisements or requiring
you to log in more than is necessary for security. Cookies, in conjunction with
our Web server's log files, allow us to calculate the aggregate number of people
visiting our Web site and which parts of the site are most popular. This helps us
gather feedback in order to constantly improve our Web site and better serve our
customers. Cookies do not allow us to gather any personal information about you
and we do not generally store any personal information that you provided to us in
your cookies.
IP Addresses
IP addresses are used by your computer every time you are connected to the Internet.
Your IP address is a number that is used by computers on the network to identify
your computer. IP addresses are automatically collected by our web server as part
of demographic and profile data known as “traffic data” so that data can be sent
to you.
Sharing Information.
We will not share any information.
Notice of New Services and Changes
Occasionally, we may also use the information we collect to notify you about important
changes to our Web site, new services and special offers we think you will find
valuable. As our customer, you will be given the opportunity to notify us of your
desire not to receive these offers.
How Do We Protect Your Information and Secure Information Transmissions?
Email is not recognized as a secure medium of communication. For this reason, we
request that you do not send private information to us by email. Some of the information
you may enter on our Web site may be transmitted securely via Secure Sockets Layer
SSL, 128 bit encryption services, which are enabled by VeriSign, Inc. Pages utilizing
this technology will have URLs that start with HTTPS instead of HTTP.
Evaluation of Information Protection Practices.
Periodically, our operations and business practices are reviewed for compliance
with corporate policies and procedures governing the security, confidentiality and
quality of our information.
Employee Access, Training and Expectations.
Our corporate values, ethical standards, and practices are committed to the appropriate
protection of customer and visitor information. In general, our business practices
limit employee access to confidential information, and limit the use and disclosure
of such information to authorized persons, processes and transactions.
What About Other Web Sites Linked to Our Web Site?
We are not responsible for the practices employed by Web sites linked to or from
our Web site nor the information or content contained therein. Often links to other
Web sites are provided solely as pointers to information on topics that may be useful
to the users of our Web site. Please remember that when you use a link to go from
our Web site to another Web site, our Privacy Policy is no longer in effect. Your
browsing and interaction on any other Web site, including Web sites which have a
link on our Web site, is subject to that Web site's own rules and policies. Please
read over those rules and policies before proceeding.
Your Consent
By using our Web site you consent to our collection and use of your personal information
as described in this Privacy Policy. If we change our privacy policies and procedures,
we will post those changes on our Web site to keep you aware of what information
we collect, how we use it and under what circumstances we may disclose it.

or update this Privacy Policy at any time by posting a notice that we are changing
