ClickFix and its subsidiaries respect your privacy and are committed
to protecting it. ClickFix 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 Web sites so that, in general, you can
visit ClickFix 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 ClickFix Web page. Some ClickFix
Web pages are P3P-enabled, which allows
you additional control over your personal information.

6. Your choices
ClickFix 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 ClickFix-wide marketing communications. ClickFix-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 ClickFix-wide communications
by postal mail, e-mail and telephone. You can make or change
your choices at the data collection point or through ClickFix
Passport (ClickFix’s proprietary online customer registration
tool, available only in the United States). 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.
7. Your information and third-party companies
Certain ClickFix services are linked
with those from unrelated third-party companies, some which offer you
the option to share with both ClickFix
and the third party personal data you provide. Examples include the
ability to register software products from multiple vendors from a single
ClickFix Web page, to request communications
from ClickFix 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.
8. Access to and accuracy of your information
ClickFix 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 ClickFix’s Web sites 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 or use ClickFix
Passport.
9. Keeping your information secure
ClickFix 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, ClickFix 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.
Credit card numbers are used only for processing payment and are not
used for other purposes. As part of real-time payment processing, ClickFix
subscribes to a fraud management service. This service gives you and
ClickFix an extra level of security
to guard against credit card fraud to protect your financial data.
10. Changes to this Statement
If there are updates to the terms of ClickFix’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, ClickFix
will provide notification to affected customers.
11. Contacting us
We value your opinions. If you have comments or questions about our
privacy policy, please send them to the ClickFix
Privacy Office.

2An IP address is an identifier
for a computer or device on a Transmission Control Protocol/Internet
Protocol (TCP/IP) network, such as the World Wide Web. Networks use
the TCP/IP protocol to route information based on the IP address of
the destination. In other words, an IP address is a number that is automatically
assigned to your computer whenever you are surfing the Web, allowing
Web servers to locate and identify your computer. Computers require
IP addresses in order for users to communicate on the Internet, browse
and shop.
