NAI ARCHITECTS online privacy statementNAI ARCHITECTS and its subsidiaries respect your privacy and are committed to protecting it. NAI ARCHITECTS provides this Privacy Statement to inform you of our Privacy Policy and practices and of the choices you can make about the way your information is collected online and how that information is used. We've structured our websites so that, in general, you can visit NAI ARCHITECTS on the Web without identifying yourself or revealing any personal information. We make this notice readily available on our home page and at the bottom of every NAI ARCHITECTS Web page.
1. Sites covered by this Privacy Statement This Privacy Statement applies to all NAI Architects, Inc. owned websites and domains.
Links to non-NAI ARCHITECTS websites The NAI ARCHITECTS websites may provide links to third-party websites for your convenience and information. If you access those links, you will leave the NAI ARCHITECTS website. NAI ARCHITECTS does not control those sites or their privacy practices, which may differ from NAI ARCHITECTS's. We do not endorse or make any representations about third-party websites. The personal data you choose to give to unrelated third parties is not covered by the NAI ARCHITECTS Privacy Statement. We encourage you to review the privacy policy of any company before submitting your personal information. Some third-party companies may choose to share their personal data with NAI ARCHITECTS; that sharing is governed by that third-party company's privacy policy.
This Privacy Statement covers personal information, non-personal data collection and aggregate reporting.
NAI ARCHITECTS is committed to protecting the privacy needs of children and we encourage parents and guardians to take an active role in their children's online activities and interests. NAI ARCHITECTS does not knowingly collect information from children under the age of 13 and NAI ARCHITECTS does not target its websites to children under 13.
NAI ARCHITECTS uses your personal information to provide you with services and to help us better understand your needs and interests. Specifically, we use your information to help you complete a transaction or order, to communicate with you, to provide service and support, to update you on services and benefits, to personalize promotional offers and to personalize some NAI ARCHITECTS websites. Occasionally we may also use your information to contact you for market research regarding NAI ARCHITECTS products or services. We will give you the opportunity to choose your privacy preferences regarding such communications (see section 7, "Your privacy preferences and opting out"). Credit card information is used only for payment processing and fraud prevention. Sensitive personal information is collected only to facilitate our financial service providers' credit decisions and will be shared with them only with your permission. Credit card information and sensitive personal data are not used for any other purpose by our financial services providers or NAI ARCHITECTS and will not be kept longer than necessary for providing the services, unless you ask us to retain your credit card information for future purchases.
NAI ARCHITECTS will not sell, rent or lease your personal information to others. NAI ARCHITECTS will not share your personal information with third parties except in responding to your requests for products or services. Your permission will be requested when you submit your information. NAI ARCHITECTS shares customer information across NAI ARCHITECTS-owned business entities and companies working on our behalf, but only as described above in "How we use your information." NAI ARCHITECTS contracts with third-party service providers and suppliers to deliver complete products, services and customer solutions described in "How we use your information." Suppliers and service providers are required to keep confidential the information received on behalf of NAI ARCHITECTS and may not use it for any purpose other than to carry out the services they are performing for NAI ARCHITECTS. These service providers may change or we may contract with additional service providers to better accommodate our customers. NAI ARCHITECTS will not share personal information with any other third parties without your permission, unless required by law enforcement action, subpoena, or local law. NAI ARCHITECTS or its related entities could merge with or be acquired by another business entity or some or all of their respective assets could be acquired. If such a combination or acquisition occurs, NAI ARCHITECTS will make every reasonable effort to notify you in the event we share with the merging or acquiring entity some or all of your personal information to continue serving you.
NAI ARCHITECTS gives you the choice of receiving a variety of information that complements our products and services. You can subscribe to receive certain product- and service-specific information and NAI ARCHITECTS-wide marketing communications. NAI ARCHITECTS-wide communications may include new product information, special offers, or an invitation to participate in market research. We give you a choice regarding delivery of NAI ARCHITECTS-wide communications by postal mail, e-mail and telephone. You can make or change your choices at the data collection point. Please refer to section 7 for further instructions. We will make every effort to honor your preferences. This option does not apply to communications for the purpose of administering order completion, contracts, support, product safety warnings or driver updates.

8. Your information and third-party companies Certain NAI ARCHITECTS services are linked with those from unrelated third-party companies, some which offer you the option to share with both NAI ARCHITECTS and the third party personal data you provide. Examples include the ability to register products from multiple vendors from a single NAI ARCHITECTS Web page, to request communications from NAI ARCHITECTS marketing or solution partners, or to enable order completion through a reseller. We will not share your personal information with those third-party companies unless you make that choice.
9. Access to and accuracy of your information NAI ARCHITECTS strives to keep your personal information accurate. We have implemented technology, management processes and policies to maintain customer data accuracy. We will provide you with access to your information, including making reasonable effort to provide you with online access and the opportunity to change your information. To protect your privacy and security, we will also take reasonable steps to verify your identity, such as a password and user ID, before granting access to your data. Certain areas of NAI ARCHITECTS's websites may limit access to specific individuals through the use of passwords and other personal identifiers. The most effective way to view and change your personal information is to return to the Web page where you originally submitted your data and follow the instructions on that Web page.
10. Keeping your information secure NAI ARCHITECTS is committed to protecting the information you provide us. To prevent unauthorized access or disclosure, to maintain data accuracy, and to ensure the appropriate use of the information, NAI ARCHITECTS has in place appropriate physical and managerial procedures to safeguard the information we collect. We use Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) encryption when collecting or transferring sensitive data such as credit card information. SSL encryption is designed to make the information unreadable by anyone but us. This security measure is working when you see either the symbol of an unbroken key or closed lock (depending on your browser) on the bottom of your browser window.
If there are updates to the terms of NAI ARCHITECTS's Online Privacy Statement, we will post those changes and update the revision date in this document, so you will always know what information we collect online, how we use it, and what choices you have. For material changes to this Statement, NAI ARCHITECTS will provide notification to affected customers.
We value your opinions. If you have comments or questions about our privacy policy, please send them to NAI ARCHITECTS.
