OMEC is deeply committed to protecting the privacy of Internet users and customers. Below is information outlining our continued support for the responsible management of visitor's information.
DATA COLLECTION
OMEC, as well as most sites on the Internet, use "cookies" to enhance your experience on the web. OMEC cannot use these cookies to personally identify you in any way. What are cookies and why do we use them? A cookie is a unique number that is provided to you the first time OMEC serves you an ad. This unique number, which is stored in a cookie file on your computer, helps OMEC to set pages up for you. For instance, it will pre-fill in your forms on the Discussion Forum. Cookies are also used by our Advertising affiliate. This cookie can help OMEC ensure that we don't serve you the same ad multiple times, and help our advertisers understand what you like and don't like about their offerings so that they can cater better to your needs the next time you are interested in their products or services. While we believe that cookies enhance your Internet experience by limiting the number of times you see the same ad and delivering more relevant content to you, they are not required for OMEC to deliver you an ad.
If you do not want the benefit of cookies, there is a simple procedure to manually delete your cookies. Please consult your web browser's Help documentation for more information.
CONSUMER INFORMATION
During the process of storing cookies or delivering an ad to you, OMEC does not collect any personally identifiable information about you such as name, address, phone number, or e-mail address. However, OMEC does obtain some types of non-personally identifiable information such as the Internet Service Provider you use to connect to the Internet, your browser type, or the type of computer operating system you use (Linux or Windows, for example). All web sites collect this information in their logs. The information collected by OMEC is used for the purpose of targeting ads, statistical purpose and measuring ad effectiveness on behalf of our advertisers.
In some cases, you may voluntarily provide personal information, such as by using your name and email address on the Discussion Forum, or on an interactive ad (this ad may ask you to fill out a survey or provide your zip code). If this does occur, OMEC may collect this information on behalf of an advertiser. This information is used by an advertiser to respond to your request. In addition, OMEC may combine this information with other users' information and review it in an aggregate form to understand the type of individuals who view a specific type of ad or visit a particular kind of website. |
