NORAT may use this information to customize the content you see and fulfill your requests for certain products and services. However, NORAT does not connect this non-personal data to any personal information collected from you.
COOKIES
NORAT websites use cookies to temporarily store information during a multi-page process, such as when placing an order. A cookie is a small amount of data that is sent to your browser from our server and stored on your computer’s hard drive. You have the choice to accept all cookies, or be notified when a cookie is set, or to reject all cookies, by setting the appropriate options in your browser. We only use cookies when there is persistent data that is required to be kept from one page to another, such as when completing an order. If you decide not to accept a cookie, you may not be able to place your order.
CORRESPONDENCE
We reserve the right to record any correspondences (e.g., email, fax, paper mail or courier) submitted to us by you either for training purposes or any other purpose that we deem necessary.
SERVER ACTIVITY
Customer logins, and other server access activities are monitored and analyzed to protect our server from unauthorized login attempts.
SECURITY
No Internet data transmission can be considered 100% secure. However, we safeguard your personal information from unauthorized access, through access control procedures, network firewalls and physical security measures.
We take precautions to secure your data from use, misuse, or alteration by unauthorized third parties with the use of modern technology. When we collect sensitive information (e.g., credit card data), it is encrypted and transmitted to us using the Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) protocol. This can be verified by locating the closed lock icon at the bottom of your web browser, or looking for https:// at the beginning of the web page address. SSL encrypts all of your personal information, including your credit card and security number; name and address, as it is transmitted over the internet. Unfortunately, no data transmission over the Internet can be guaranteed to be 100% secure, and while we strive to protect your personal information, we cannot ensure or warrant the security of any information you transmit to us, and you do so at your own risk. Once we receive your transmission, we make our best effort to ensure its security on our systems.
