Welcome to the Applied Medical Web site, owned by Applied Medical Resources Corp.
This Privacy Policy is provided to explain the kind of information Applied Medical
may collect while you visit our site and how Applied Medical uses that information.
By using our site, you are agreeing to the terms of Applied Medical's Privacy
Policy.
Some of the information we keep on our server is information that you volunteer
to provide through forms and some is collected automatically. Unless you volunteer
to submit personal data yourself, Applied Medical will not collect any personal
information.
Information Automatically Collected and Stored
During your visit, Applied Medical automatically collects and stores the domain
and host from which you access the Internet, the Internet address of the Web site
from which you linked directly to the Applied Medical site (if applicable), the
date and time you arrived at our site, how long you spent on the site, which pages
you visited, your Internet protocol (IP) address, and your computer's operating
system and browser software.
Personal Information You Choose to Provide
Only when specifically requested by site visitors will Applied Medical collect and
use personal information through this site. Applied Medical collects personal information
in limited cases, including account number, name, specialty, title, hospital, address,
e-mail address, and telephone number when you request a U.S. price list or international
catalog, request a Sales Contact through our site, and register for a training course.
Applied Medical will use your personal information only for the purpose indicated
to you when you provided it. Generally, our use of such information is limited to
responding to your requests, developing records of your purchase or interest in
our products, contacting you with information that might be of interest to you (including
information about products of ours and others), enforcing this Privacy Policy and
the Terms of Use of this site, protecting our rights and property, and complying
with a law or regulation, including responding to government investigations, validly
issued subpoenas, and court orders.
In the ordinary course of business, we will share some personal information with
companies that we hire to perform services or functions on our behalf and consistent
with this Privacy Policy. In such cases, we share the minimum amount of information
necessary for the third party to complete its function. In all cases, we will not
authorize them to keep, disclose, or use your information except for the purpose
of providing the services for which they have been contracted.
Applied Medical will not sell, rent, publish or exchange such personally identifiable
information to any other organization or entity unless the user is first notified
and expressly agrees to it, or as otherwise required by law. This limitation does
not prohibit transfer of information in conjunction with a significant corporate
event, such as a merger, sale, dissolution, or acquisition, in which customer information
is one of the business assets transferred.
