Privacy Policy
We understand the importance of privacy to our customers and visitors to Datacom web sites. Since the company's inception, our policy has been to treat what we learn about our customers as confidential. For example, we will not give or sell confidential or Personal Information (as described below) about our customers to any third party not affiliated with their transaction, except as required by law or as necessary to provide Datacom services to the customer. Some of the information collected by Datacom is data which relates to an identifiable person ("Personal Information"). Examples of Personal Information are names, addresses, e-mail addresses, credit card numbers and telephone numbers. We never sell information to third parties that could be used to specifically identify an individual customer or group of customers. Finally, we do provide Personal Information to government agencies as required by law or regulation.
We treat our data as assets that must be protected against loss and unauthorized access. We employ information security techniques to appropriately protect confidential information from unauthorized access by users inside and outside the company. Access to customer information is limited to those employees who have a legitimate business need for that information. Datacom Web Sites, and their supporting systems, employ generally accepted information security techniques such as firewalls, access control procedures and cryptography to appropriately protect confidential information from unauthorized access.
We retain information, including Personal Information, about customers as necessary for business purposes and as required by government regulation. We carefully dispose of records and delete information when retention periods expire.
The following paragraphs describe our commitment to the protection of Personal Information as it applies to the Datacom Web Sites.
Users can visit most areas of the Datacom Web Sites without revealing who they are or providing any information about themselves. However, some of our interactive services require that users identify themselves in order to enable the interactive function. We may ask users to provide some Personal Information in these situations.

The inclusion of any link does not imply Datacom endorsement of the external site company, its web site, or the products and services it promotes and sells. Datacom is not responsible for the privacy practices or the content of such web sites.
