How we collect and use personal information

If you would rather not receive these e-mail notifications, you can simply indicate that preference either when you register or at any time you modify your account.

If you request a catalog, enter a contest or respond to a promotion, we may ask for your postal address so we can notify contest winners and deliver promotional goodies. When you enter this information, we will save it in your member profile so that you won’t have to enter it again. We occasionally may also send you postal mail to notify you about important changes to the site, new services, and special offers from us and select [name of Web site] partners. If you would rather not receive such information via postal mail, you can indicate this when you enter your address or you can modify your account at any time to indicate your preference.

How we protect your personal information
All personal data you enter on www.extech.com is encrypted with secure server software (SSL) that encodes the information before your Web browser software sends it to us. The SSL software decodes the data only after it reaches our server, meaning hackers can’t snatch any of your personal information while it is in transit. Once the data reaches our site, the same state-of-the-art security software we use to guard all of our company’s essential business data protects your personal data as well.

In addition to using the most secure technology available, we work tirelessly to make sure that we use any information you provide us only in ways you have approved. We send you only the e-mail you have approved in your account information or on your e-mail subscription signup page. And when you sign up for Free Product Info, Postmaster Direct distributes all the announcement e-mails you request directly without ever releasing your e-mail address to a third party.

What we provide to third parties
Extech Instruments does not provide any third-party access to your personal information except to facilitate your own attempts to register with our partners.
