What Information C3 Collects: This Privacy Policy applies to all information collected by or submitted to C3 (or carefully selected third parties acting on our behalf), including both personally identifiable information (“Personal Information”) and non-personally identifiable information. Personal Information refers to information that identifies you directly, such as your name, business affiliation, postal address, telephone number, e-mail address and credit card information. We collect Personal Information only when you voluntarily provide it to us. We may also collect information that does not identify you personally, which we use to track your use of the Site. For instance, we may collect information about what type of Web browser you use and what pages of the Site you visit to help us understand how the Site is being used. You do not need to provide Personal Information to simply browse the Site, and you have the right to request that the Site deletes your Personal Information.

How C3 may use your information: C3 collects and uses your information, including your Personal Information, to operate and improve the Site and provide the services or carry out the transactions you have requested. These uses may include providing you with more effective customer service, making the Site or Services easier to use by eliminating the need for you to repeatedly enter the same information, performing research and analysis aimed at improving our Site and Services, and displaying content and advertising that are customized to your interests and preferences.
We also use your Personal Information to communicate with you. We may send certain mandatory service communications such as welcome letters, information updates, billing information, information on technical service issues, and security announcements. We may also contact you to inform you of other services available from C3.
Sharing of your Personal Information: C3 will not sell, rent, or lease your information, including your Personal Information, to others. C3 shares Personal Information with companies working on our behalf. Except as described in this statement, we will not disclose your Personal Information to third parties for their own marketing purposes unless you have provided consent.
In some cases, C3 uses contractors to collect, use, analyze, and otherwise process information, including Personal Information, on its behalf. It is C3’s practice to require such suppliers to handle information in a manner consistent with Site’s policies.
If you request something from the Site (for example, a service or a callback), we will use the information you provide to fulfill your request or inquiry. To help us do this, we may share information with others, such as financial institutions, shipping companies, and postal or government authorities involved in fulfillment. As part of a transaction, we may also contact you as part of our customer satisfaction surveys or for market research purposes.
We may occasionally hire other companies to provide limited services on our behalf, such as handling the processing and delivery of mailings, providing customer support, hosting websites, processing transactions, or performing statistical analysis of our services. Such companies will be permitted to obtain only the Personal Information they need to deliver the service. They are required to maintain the confidentiality of the information and are prohibited from using it for any other purpose.
We may access or disclose your information, including your Personal Information, if we believe such action is necessary to: (a) comply with the law or legal process served on the Site or C3; (b) protect and defend the rights or property of the Site or C3 (including the enforcement of our agreements); or (c) act in urgent circumstances to protect the personal safety of users of the Site or services or members of the public.
Your choices: C3 provides a number of ways for you to “opt-out” of receiving additional information from us, or having us provide your Personal Information to third partis. We may offer you these choices at the time you give us your Personal Information.
If you do not wish to continue receiving certain marketing materials (e.g., email messages), you can opt-out of receiving these materials by following the unsubscribe instructions provided in the materials. This option does not apply to communications primarily for the purpose of providing services, contracts, support, or other administrative and transactional notices.
How to update your Information: You can modify the contact information that you have provided to us by contacting dawn@c3-ag.com.
Safeguarding your Personal Information: In order to protect your information, including your Personal Information, from improper disclosure, C3 uses commercially reasonable efforts to maintain a secure operating environment to protect any information we collect. We use the most accurate and current information you provide in order to process your request. Once received, we limit access of your information to only those employees with a legitimate business need to review them. Furthermore, whenever you transmit Personal Information, we take care to dispose of your information properly so that third parties will not be able to access it. This includes destroying, erasing, or making unreadable the information. While we are committed to protecting your privacy, please be aware that no transaction over the Internet can be completely secure.
