Collection of Customer Information.

With each visit to InterLink Control's website, information is collected from you that is either personally identifiable or anonymous. Personally identifiable information is data that identifies you as the sender. Examples of personally identifiable information include your name, personal and business addresses, phone numbers, e-mail addresses, credit card numbers and account numbers. Anonymous information, on the other hand, describes generic information that you transmit with each visit to our website, but that cannot be tied directly back to you.

The most common type of anonymous information is your IP Address. IP ("Internet Protocol") addresses allow your computer to identify itself to InterLink Control's website. Your IP address is automatically assigned by the Internet and changes each time you connect to the Internet. When your web browser or email application requests a web page or email from another computer on the Internet, it automatically gives that computer the address where it should send the information. InterLink Control's web server recognizes the IP address of your domain name, but does not associate your IP address to your personal information. IP addresses are used by InterLink Control to facilitate system administration and to conduct website analysis. Another method of obtaining anonymous information is through the use of "Cookies." Cookies are pieces of data used to identify a web user, store the web user's preferences and maintain site usage information regarding the number of visits to the website. Currently, InterLink Control does not utilize Cookies, but reserves the right to add that feature in the future.

Uses of Customer Information.

The primary use of your personally identifiable information is to fulfill your requests to activate a security system or provide additional information. If you supply InterLink Control with your telephone number or address via the website you may receive telephone calls or mailings from us. Any information you provide may be used to improve the layout of our website and improve its content. InterLink Control may share your personally identifiable information with our electric provider partners, including Cobb Energy Management Corporation, Snapping Shoals Energy Management Company, CENTEC, Inc. and Tri-County Electric
Membership Corporation, as well as companies and vendors that perform marketing or other services on behalf of InterLink Control or with whom we have joint marketing agreements. It is our policy to prohibit these companies from otherwise selling or disclosing any personally identifiable information we provide to them to other third parties. Further, we may disclose your personally identifiable information to appropriate state and local officials where required to do so by law or court order.

Protection of Customer Information.

Your interaction with InterLink Control over the Internet is controlled by you. Using the services provided by InterLink Control over this website is a voluntary decision. Only the personally identifiable information you voluntarily choose to provide shall be transmitted over the Internet.

Transmission over the Internet.

We not only strive to protect your personal information maintained by us but, also, its delivery to us. InterLink Control follows industry standards when transferring your data via the website. Security measures include encryption devices, and, in some instances, secure servers. Although we strive to protect your personal information passing over the Internet, no security system can guarantee complete protection and there is a possibility that your personal information could be compromised.

Any information transmitted via the third party's website is not covered by our privacy policy. InterLink Control does not monitor or control the content of third party websites or their privacy policies, therefore, we are not responsible for their privacy practices.

Protection of Children's Information.

The purpose of the Children's Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA) of 1998 is to protect children using the Internet by creating regulations that control the use and disclosure of personally identifiable information from children under the age of 13. InterLink Control has taken precautions to prevent the collection, use, and disclosure of personally identifiable information of children under the age of 13. If you are aware that InterLink Control has inadvertently obtained personally identifiable information from a child under the age of 13, please contact us immediately using the notice addresses listed above and we will take appropriate action to correct the situation.

Any comments, questions, answers, feedback, data, suggestions, ideas or the like, which you send to us, to the extent it is not personally identifiable information, will be treated as being non-confidential and non-proprietary. Other than as expressly stated elsewhere in this privacy statement, we assume no obligation to protect this non-personally identifiable information from disclosure and will be free to reproduce, use, and distribute this information to others without restriction. Further, any ideas, concept, know-how or techniques that you send to us, for whatever purpose, may be used in any manner InterLink Control chooses, including disclosure to third parties.
