The information we collect

The Web Site manupatra.com is not set up to automatically collect personally identifiable information from each visitor to the Web Site. It does recognize the home server of visitors, but not e-mail addresses. For example, we can tell which Internet Service Provider our visitors use, but not the names, addresses or other information about our visitors that would allow us to identify a particular visitor to our Web Site. This information is used only for internal purposes by our technical support staff.

The Web Site does track certain information about the visits to the Web Site manupatra.com. For example, we compile statistics that show the numbers and frequency of visitors to the Web Site and its individual pages and time spent by each visitor on each page. These aggregated statistics are generally used internally to improve the Web Site and for product development and marketing purposes. Those aggregated statistics may also be provided to advertisers and other third parties, but again, the statistics contain no personal information and cannot be used to gather such information.

In a few areas on the Web Site manupatra.com, we ask you to provide information that will enable us to verify whether you are entitled to access and use certain information, materials and services available from the Web Site manupatra.com. This information may also be used to enable us to enhance your Site visit, to assist you with customer service or technical support issues, or to follow up with you after your visit, or to otherwise support your relationship with manupatra.com. It is completely optional for you to participate. However, failure to participate may mean that you cannot access and use certain information, materials and services.

For example, we request information from you when you:

  1. Log-on to certain areas of the Web Site manupatra.com where you may be prompted to provide  us with your Log In Name and Password as a condition to gaining access to certain information, materials or services. 

  2. Register or sign-up to use a service. 

  3. Subscribe to a newsletter or desire to be added to our mailing lists for other products and services.

  4. Place an order. 

  5. Provide feedback in an online survey. 

In each of the instances above, we typically ask for your name, e-mail address, phone number, address, area of practice information, product preference information, Log In Name and Password, as well as, other similar personal information that is needed to register or subscribe you to services or offers. On occasion, we may ask for additional information to enable us to provide you with access to and use of certain information, materials and services. In the case of newsletters or mailing lists, you will be able to "unsubscribe" to these mailers at any time.

Wherever manupatra.com collects personal information we make an effort to include a link to this Privacy Policy on that page.

                                                                                                                                                                              Top
