KEMTECK INC respects the privacy of visitors to its Web site and
its member companies. KEMTECK INC strongly believes that if electronic
commerce and online activities are to flourish, consumers must
be assured that information provided online is used responsibly
and appropriately.
To protect online privacy, KEMTECK INC has implemented the following
policy. What Information Does KEMTECK INC Collect? Most data KEMTECK
INC collects are not personal but business related to help KEMTECK
INC better serve its members. From the General Public Using Unrestricted
KEMTECK INC Files. KEMTECK INC does not collect any personal information
from users browsing its Web site. Users to the public areas of
KEMTECK INC's Web site browse anonymously. Only aggregate data
-- such as the number of hits per page -- are collected. Aggregate
data are only used for internal and marketing purposes and do
not provide any personally identifying information. From KEMTECK
INC Members, Conference Registrants, Award Nominees and Other
Customers.
To gain access to some of the members-only or subscription-based
areas of KEMTECK INC's Web site, users are asked to provide some
limited information. These data are submitted voluntarily. KEMTECK
INC asks users to provide their name, job title, company, business
address, business phone, fax and e-mail, and users may choose
to provide KEMTECK INC with their credit card accounts to make
payments. Similar information may be submitted to KEMTECK INC
through membership applications, conference or seminar registration,
publication orders, subscriptions and contest registrations. KEMTECK
INC does not collect home addresses, home phone numbers or home
e-mail accounts, except for those specifically requesting home
office correspondence.
From People Reporting Software Piracy to KEMTECK INC All information-identifying
people who report software piracy is kept strictly confidential
by KEMTECK INC, unless disclosure is required by law. Because
of the nature of anti-piracy enforcement, however, KEMTECK INC
assumes no responsibility (absent a written agreement otherwise)
to keep confidential the identities of potential software pirates.
A Note About Children. KEMTECK INC does not knowingly market its
goods or services to minors. KEMTECK INC encourages its younger
visitors to get their parents' permission before providing any
information to KEMTECK INC Although the nature of the Internet
makes it impossible for KEMTECK INC to know the age of its visitors,
keep in mind that KEMTECK INC does not collect any personal information
about people of any age who visit the unrestricted areas of its
Web site. Moreover, it is unlikely that KEMTECK INC will inadvertently
collect personal information voluntarily submitted, as through
conference registrations or order forms, because KEMTECK INC requires
the name of an employer or a credit card account number - information
that should exclude all but the most precocious minor.
How Does KEMTECK INC Use Data Collected? KEMTECK INC uses other
information voluntarily submitted by members, conference registrants,
award nominees and other customers in the following ways: KEMTECK
INC Member Services and Products. Generally, KEMTECK INC uses

visitors' interests, needs and preferences; to develop new products
and services; and to provide individuals and their companies with
information about complimentary KEMTECK INC products, services,
promotions or special offers.
Disclosures to Third Parties. KEMTECK INC also makes member company
products and contact information available through the KEMTECK
INC Membership Directory to visitors to its Internet site and
to those who register for its conferences. On occasion, KEMTECK
INC may also provide limited data to third parties that offer
products and services. These limited data include names, job titles,
companies and business addresses, but does not include business
phone numbers, business fax numbers or e-mail addresses. In addition,
KEMTECK INC only provides information to third parties that have
adopted privacy policies that meet the criteria established by
KEMTECK INC Users may request KEMTECK INC to refrain from disclosing
the data it collects to third parties on the membership application
form, conference registration form or any other form on which
they are providing information. Alternatively, users may contact

members do wish to receive third-party product information, offers
and other solicitations. Those who wish to have their business
phone, fax and e-mail disclosed to third parties may specifically
request that KEMTECK INC provide that information to third parties.
Credit Card Account Information. KEMTECK INC does not disclose
credit card account information provided by its members and customers.
When members and customers choose to pay using their credit cards,
KEMTECK INC submits the information needed to secure payment to
the appropriate clearinghouse. How Does KEMTECK INC Ensure Compliance
with its Privacy Policy? KEMTECK INC is committed to making sure
that its privacy policy is understood and respected by all of
its employees. KEMTECK INC has taken the following steps to ensure
compliance. All KEMTECK INC employees who collect or disclose
information about members and customers are required to attend
a training seminar to ensure that they understand the privacy
policy and how this policy affects an individual's job responsibilities.
In addition, regular network audits ensure that only KEMTECK INC
employees who have a business need to access personally identifying
information have such network privileges. Access to KEMTECK INC
network resources is limited to KEMTECK INC employees and interns.
