GBS Privacy Policy
7-21-2005
Global Business Solutions’ privacy policy covers the collection
and use of personal information that may be collected by Global Business
Solutions anytime you interact with Global Business Solutions: for
example when you visit our website, when you purchase products and
services, or when you call our sales or support engineers.
Why we collect personal information
Your personal information helps us provide you a superior level of
customer service. It helps us give you access to our products and
services of greatest interest to you. In addition, your personal information
enables us to keep you posted on the latest product announcements,
software updates, special offers, and events.
What information we collect
There are a number of ways that your personal information may help
us give you better service. For example, we may ask for your information
when you’re discussing a service issue on the phone with an
associate, downloading a software update, registering for a seminar,
participating in a survey, registering your products, or purchasing
a product. At such times, we may collect personal information relevant
to the situation, such as your name, mailing address, phone number,
email address, and contact preferences; information about the products
you own, such as their serial numbers, and date of purchase; and information
relating to a support or service issue.
The information that we collect for market research purposes is
to gain a better understanding of our customers and thus provide
more valuable services. We also collect information regarding customer
activities on our website. This helps us to determine how best to
provide useful information to customers and to understand which
parts of our websites and Internet services are of most interest
to them.
How do we use your personal information
We will only use your personal information in the way we specified
when it was collected. We will not change the way your personal information
is used without your consent. Some of the ways we may use your personal
information include:
• To provide the ability to create personal profile areas and
view protected content.
- To provide the ability to contact you, and provide you with shipping and billing information.
- To provide customer feedback and support.
- To provide contests or other marketing promotional activities.
- To conduct questionnaires and surveys in order to provide better
products and services to our customers and end users. Your completion
of any questionnaires is voluntary.
When we disclose your information
We take your privacy very seriously. We assure you that Global Business
Solutions does not sell or rent your contact information to companies
outside of Global Business Solutions. At times we may be required
by law or litigation to disclose your personal information. We may
also disclose information about you if we determine that it is so
necessary for national security, law enforcement, or other issues
of public importance.
Security
The information we collect about you is stored in limited-access and
secured servers. We maintain strict safeguards to protect the security
of these servers and your personal information.
Linked Websites
Our website will provide links to other third-party websites which
are outside our control and not covered by this policy. We encourage
you to review the privacy policies posted on these (and all) sites.
Policy Modifications
This Privacy Policy may be modified at any time by Global Business
Solutions at our discretion. Any changes to the Privacy Policy will
be posted immediately for your review.

If you have any questions, comments or concerns about our Privacy
Policy, you may contact us at info@gbs-inc.com
