The following policy applies to the QEDDATA.COM, SURVEY.QEDDATA.COM, SUPPORT.QEDDATA.COM, and HELLERREPORTS.COM sites.

Quality Education Data is committed to protecting the privacy and security of its online visitors. This policy statement provides our visitors with an overview of the measures we have taken to provide a safe environment for everyone.

PERSONALLY IDENTIFIABLE INFORMATION

We only collect personally identifiable information from our visitors when such visitors voluntarily submit such information.

We consider the following, among other things, to be personally identifiable information: first and last name, company name, e-mail address, street address and phone number. We may request such personally identifiable information from requests for suggestions, and visitors' requests for free products, services or additional information, so that we can answer questions or requests, and fulfill orders.

We use the personally identifiable information that our visitors provide to us to customize the content on qeddata.com to visitors' current and future needs. We also use this personally identifiable information to provide visitors, via e-mail or other means, with information about QED's products and services, or other things that may be of interest. However, users always have the opportunity to unsubscribe from any communication via e-mail if they choose to do so.

NON-PERSONALLY IDENTIFIABLE INFORMATION AND THE USE OF COOKIE TECHNOLOGY

We collect non-personally identifiable information through the use of a software technology called "cookies," and through our visitors' voluntary submissions to us and/or upon our request. By non-personally identifiable information, we are referring to information about our visitors' browsers (e.g., Netscape Navigator or Internet Explorer), operating systems (e.g., Windows or Macintosh), Internet service providers (e.g., AOL or NET.COM) and other similar information which we track in aggregate form. The non-personally identifiable information that we track is anonymous and will never be identified with or lead us back to any of our visitors.

Cookie technology helps us to know how many people visit us and where visitors go on our site. Cookies are small bits of information we send to your computer. Among other things, this non-personally identifiable information allows us to know which areas are favorites, which areas need a bit of improvement, or what technologies and Internet services are being used by our visitors so that we may continually improve our visitors' online experiences.

USE OF IP ADDRESSES

We collect IP addresses to obtain aggregate information on the use of qeddata.com. An IP address is a number assigned to your computer by a Web server when you're on the Web. When you are on our site, we have a back-end server that logs your computer's IP address. We only use the information we find out from tracking IP addresses in the aggregate, such as how many users entered a specific area of our site, and not to track a specific IP address to identify an individual user. However, we may use such information to identify a user if we feel that there are or may be safety and/or security issues or to comply with legal requirements. We also use your IP address to help diagnose problems with our server, and to administer our website.

PUBLIC FORUMS

This site makes chat rooms, forums, message boards, and/or news groups available to its users. Please remember that any information that is disclosed in these areas becomes public information and you should exercise caution when deciding to disclose your personal information.

SECURITY

Quality Education Data ensures that all information, personally and non-personally identifiable information, that it receives via the Internet is secure against unauthorized access. This information is kept in a safe and secure system isolated from direct connection to the Internet.

SUPPLEMENTAL INFORMATION

This site supplements the information that you provide with information that is received from third parties.

Visitors will find links from qeddata.com to independently owned, controlled and/or managed World Wide Web or Internet sites whose content we have found of possible interest to our visitors. In many cases, but not always, the links represent cooperative projects or mutual links established with the organizations connected with these sites. While we initially visit these sites to which we directly link, please note that we do not monitor or control the content that appears on these sites and such content may be constantly changing.
