Privacy Policy
VoteHere, Inc. ("VoteHere") respects your privacy and has created this Privacy Policy to help you understand when and how personally identifiable information is collected, used and protected by VoteHere. This Privacy Policy applies only to personally identifiable information collected on websites produced and maintained by VoteHere, Inc. where this Privacy Policy is posted (collectively referred to as the "VoteHere Website"). You can travel through most of the VoteHere Website without providing us any personal information about yourself. However, sometimes we do need information in order to fulfill a request from you. Please take a few moments to read this Privacy Policy before using the VoteHere Website.
Personal Information Covered by the Privacy Policy
When we refer to the term "personally identifiable information", we mean information that identifies a particular individual. Personally identifiable information is sometimes referred to in this Privacy Policy as "personal information". Typical personal information might include an individual’s name, mailing address, e-mail address, and/or telephone number(s), but may include other information when needed to provide the information, service, or product you requested.
Personal Information We Collect
Most of the personal information VoteHere receives is provided voluntarily from visitors of the VoteHere Website who: a) request information from us, b) license and/or download one of our products, c) register for demonstrations, events, or newsletters, or d) otherwise send this information to VoteHere on a voluntary basis. In these cases, we may collect your name, company/organization name, job title, mailing address, e-mail address, telephone number(s), and country or location.
VoteHere may supplement personal information that we have collected directly from the VoteHere Website with other information that we obtain from third parties. In the event that we do associate information that we obtain from third parties with personal information that we have collected under this Privacy Policy, we will treat the acquired information in the same fashion as information we collected ourselves. Such information will not be shared with third parties, except as permitted by this Privacy Policy.
Use of Your Personal Information
VoteHere may use your personal information for the following purposes:
To deliver information regarding our company, products, or services
To deliver marketing materials to targeted audiences
To enable you to register for demonstrations, events, or newsletters
To resolve problems and to respond to customer support inquiries
To fulfill your specific requests for information from us
To contact you regarding administrative notices and updates
Except as described below, VoteHere does not share or sell your personal information to third parties without your permission.
We occasionally hire other companies to provide limited services on our behalf, such as marketing or promotional services, customer support, or information processing. We will only provide those companies the information they need to provide the service, and they will be prohibited from using that information for any other purpose.
VoteHere may disclose personal information in the good faith belief that such action is necessary to: a) conform to the edicts of the law or comply with legal process served on VoteHere, Inc., b) protect and defend the rights or property of VoteHere, Inc., c) to enforce or apply our Terms of Conditions or other policies or user/license agreements, or d) act in urgent circumstances to protect the personal safety of VoteHere employees, users of VoteHere’s products or services, or members of the public.
VoteHere may take your personally identifiable information and make it non-personally identifiable, either by combining it with information about other individuals (aggregating your information with information about other individuals), or by removing characteristics (such as your name) that make the information personally identifiable to you (de-personalizing your information). Given the nature of this information, there are no restrictions under this Privacy Policy upon the right of VoteHere to aggregate or de-personalize your personal information, and VoteHere may use and/or share with third parties the resulting non-personally identifiable information in any way.
Control and Access of Your Personal Information
VoteHere will not use or disclose your personal information in a manner that is inconsistent with this Privacy Policy without your permission. You may correct, update or remove the personal information you provided us or opt-out of receiving information at any time by contacting VoteHere using the contact information below.
Security of Your Personal Information
Votehere uses a variety of security technologies and procedures to help protect your personal information from unauthorized access or improper use. For example, we store the personal information you provide on computer servers located in secure facilities and access privileges to your personal information is strictly limited.
VoteHere may provide links from the VoteHere Website to third party websites, and since we do not control those sites, we do not assume responsibility for the privacy practices or the content of other websites.
Use of Cookies
Like many other websites, we also may collect non-personally identifiable information through the use of "cookies". A cookie is a small data file that certain web sites write to your hard drive when you visit them. A cookie file can contain information such as a user ID that the site uses to track the pages you've visited, but the only personal information a cookie can contain is information you supply yourself. A cookie can't read data off your hard disk or read cookie files created by other sites. Some web pages within the VoteHere Website may use cookies to track user traffic patterns. We do this in order to determine the usefulness of information to our users and to see how effective our navigational structure is in helping users reach that information. VoteHere does not associate this information with personally identifiable information, nor do we share this information or sell it to any third party. You can choose to have your computer warn you each time a cookie is being sent, or you can choose to turn off all cookies. You do this through your browser (like Netscape Navigator or Internet Explorer) settings. The Help menu on most browsers will inform you of the correct way to modify your cookies.
Children's Privacy
The VoteHere Website is a general audience site that is not designed nor intended to collect personal information from children under the age of 13. If we become aware that we’ve collected personal information from a child under the age of 13 we will delete it; and, if a parent becomes aware that personal information was submitted by a child under 13, he/she can request that we delete it.

By using the VoteHere Website, you are consenting to VoteHere's Privacy Policy and any changes made in it from time to time by VoteHere. We reserve the right to change this Privacy Policy at any time and will post the date the Privacy Policy was last updated.
