  • Your Personal Information.
    Resiant recognizes the importance of protecting the privacy of personal information collected about its Visitors, Users or Subscribers and other third parties. In general, our Visitors, Users and Subscribers are able to visit many of our Web pages without telling us who they are or revealing any information about themselves. As discussed under "Usage Data" below, we may track the Internet domain or "Internet protocol" addresses from which Visitors, Users and Subscribers visit us and analyze this data in the aggregate to determine usage for trends and statistics. Individual Visitors, Users and Subscribers will remain anonymous, unless they voluntarily tell us who they are. There may be times, however, such as when subscribing to our compliance service, when we require Subscribers to provide certain Personal Information about themselves. "Personal Information" may include, but is not limited to, the name, address, telephone number, e-mail address, and credit card information or checking account information of Resiant site Subscribers. In this instance, personal information is requested for the purpose of registering and paying for the subscription fee-based service.

    There will also be opportunities for Visitors, Users and Subscribers to provide us with demographic or profile information regarding their preferences and interests. This information may include, but is not limited to, professional compliance interests. This demographic information, however, is not required and is completely optional on a Visitor, User or Subscriber's part.
  • Prospect and Referral Information.
    If a Visitor, User or Subscriber visits resiantnetworks.com, cmoffice.com or cmoffice.net and partially completes the Web site's subscription registration form but fails to complete the registration process, we may use such "prospect" information to contact the prospective Subscriber from time to time with Resiant offers and information about new features, new services, and special discounts we think they may see as valuable. Similarly, if a Subscriber forwards a Resiant e-mail to a friend, we may use the "referral" information provided to contact the friend from time to time with Resiant offers and information about new features, new services, and special discounts we think the friend may see as valuable. All of our "prospect" and "referral" communications contain clearly marked opt-out instructions. The types of personally identifiable information that may be collected in relation to "prospects" or "referrals" include: name and e-mail addresses. We do not sell or rent any contact information for such "prospects" or "referrals."
