OPUS Global Data Solutions Privacy Policy
Your privacy is important to us. To better protect your privacy, we provide this notice explaining our online information practices. Please read this privacy statement closely. You accept the terms of this privacy statement by continuing to use OPUS products and services.
Policy
OPUS will never sell, rent, barter, trade, distribute or lease personal information to outside parties unless OPUS obtains customer permission or disclosure as required by law.
Purpose
OPUS uses the information customers provide only to the extent necessary to offer our services to our customers. OPUS believes in both minimizing the data that is collected and limiting its use and purpose to only that: 1) for which we have been given permission by customers, 2) as necessary to deliver our services, and 3) as we might be required or permitted for legal, compliance or other lawful purposes.
The only individually identifiable information that OPUS collects about you is that which you choose to share with us in registration, such as your name, billing address, email address, phone, usernames and passwords. This information will be closely protected and used for internal purposes only. OPUS uses return email addresses to answer the email OPUS receives. Such addresses are not used for any other purpose and are not shared with outside parties. OPUS will never willfully release your personal information to any third party unless you direct us to do so or disclosure is required by law. OPUS also may collect personal information when you request assistance from our customer support team (e.g., phone number, email address) and may collect additional information that you choose to share with our customer support team.
OPUS also collects information to evaluate aggregate site usage. OPUS may automatically collect certain usage information from customers, such as Internet Protocol (“IP”) addresses, log files, unique device identifiers, pages viewed, browser type, any links you click on to leave or interact with our services and other usage information collected from cookies and other tracking technologies as noted below. For example, we collect IP addresses to track and aggregate non-personal information, such as using IP addresses to monitor the regions from which users navigate to our services. We also collect IP addresses from users when they log into their OPUS databases as part of our log-in process and for enhanced identity authentication and authorization security.
OPUS’s services may change over time and we may introduce new features that may collect new or different types of information.
Cookies
There is a technology called “cookies” which can be used to provide tailored information from a website. A cookie is an element of data that a website can send to your browser, which may then be stored on your system. A “cookie” marks and identifies visitors on an internet site to allow customers to enter customized information and have it available on subsequent visits. OPUS pages may use cookies so that OPUS can provide a customer with access to information when a customer returns to OPUS’s website.
Although there has been debate over the privacy implications of cookies, it is important for OPUS customers to know that cookies do not read your hard drive, nor can cookies be used to reveal new information about you that you have not elected to reveal. OPUS may use cookies to log your activity on the site. Everything OPUS learns from these logs will be used to enrich our users’ experiences on our site. It will help OPUS understand what you like and don’t like, so OPUS can focus its energies more effectively and provide you with better service. Please note that your web browser settings may be adjusted to limit or prohibit this and other websites from placing cookies.
Security
OPUS is committed to protecting the security of your personal information. We use a variety of security technologies and procedures to help protect your personal information from unauthorized access, use, or disclosure. For example, we store the personal information you provide on computer systems with limited access, which are in controlled facilities.
If a password is used to help protect your accounts and personal information, it is your responsibility to keep your password confidential. Do not share this information with anyone. If you are sharing a computer with anyone you should always choose to log out before leaving a site or service to protect access to your information from subsequent users.
Connecting or Linking with Third Party Services
We work with other companies or developers who provide products and services that you may choose to sync, link, or otherwise connect with your database. If you choose to make use of such related products or services, we may exchange that information, including your personal information, information from your database, and information about how you interact with each company’s service or product with one or more third parties. This routine exchange of information is necessary to maintain business operations and to provide the requested services.
Data Retention
In accordance with and as permitted by applicable law and regulations, we may retain your information as long as necessary to serve you, to maintain your account for as long as your account is active, or as otherwise needed to operate our business.
When your account expires or becomes disabled, OPUS may retain information about our customers as required by applicable regulations and to comply with our legal and reporting obligations, resolve disputes, enforce our agreements, complete any outstanding transactions and for the detection and prevention of fraud.
Data Retention
Applicable law may give users certain rights to access personal information about them, and to limit use and disclosure of their personal information. OPUS is committed to respecting those rights. If you wish to request access, to limit use, or to limit disclosure, please contact us at info@opus-is.com and please provide the name of the OPUS customer who submitted your personal information to our services. We will refer your requests to that customer and will support them as needed in responding to your request.
Communications Preference and Opt-Out
As a result of providing your contact information, OPUS may market to you, including sending promotional communications and relevant offers. To opt out of receiving marketing related communications from OPUS, please click on the “opt-out” link in the communication. Please note that if you do opt-out of receiving marketing- related emails from us, we may still use your email address to send you important administrative messages.
Changes to This Privacy Statement
We will occasionally update this privacy statement to reflect changes in our services and customer feedback. When we post changes to this Statement, we will revise the “last updated” date at the top of this statement. If there are material changes to this statement or in how OPUS will use your personal information, we will notify you either by prominently posting a notice of such changes prior to implementing the change or by directly sending you a notification. We encourage you to periodically review this statement to be informed of how OPUS is protecting your information.
