USE OF YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION.
The personal information collected on this Site will be used to operate the Site
and to provide the service(s) or carry out the transaction(s) you have requested
or authorized.
In support of these uses, Pronet may use personal information to provide you with
more effective customer service, to improve the Site and any related Pronet products
or services, and to make the Site easier to use by eliminating the need for you
to repeatedly enter the same information or by customizing the Site to your particular
preference or interests. In order to offer you a more consistent experience in your
interactions with Pronet, information collected by PronetProtect.com may be combined
with information collected by other Pronet services.
We may use your personal information to provide you with important information about
the product or service that you are using. Additionally, with your permission, we
may send you information about other Pronet products and services, and/or share
information with Pronet partners so they may send you information about their products
and services.
When you sign up for a newsletter or agree to receive promotional e-mail, PronetProtect.com
may use customized links or similar technologies to track e-mail links that you
click. We may associate that information with your personal information in order
to provide you more focused e-mail communications or purchase information. Each
e-mail communication includes an unsubscribe link allowing you to stop delivery
of that type of communication.
Some services on PronetProtect.com offer individuals the ability to publicly display
certain personal information, such as for a Pronet partner who wishes to publish
contact information as part of offering a business service or promotion. Participation
in such services is always optional.
Pronet may occasionally hire other companies to provide limited services on our
behalf, such as Web site hosting, packaging, answering customer questions about
products and services, and sending information about our products and other services.
We will only provide those companies the personal information they need to deliver
the service. They will be required to maintain the confidentiality of the information
and are prohibited from using that information for any other purpose.
Pronet may disclose personal information if required to do so by law or in the good
faith belief that such action is necessary to (a) conform to the edicts of the law
or comply with legal process served on Pronet or the Site; (b) protect and defend
the rights or property of Pronet and our family of Web sites; or (c) act in urgent
circumstances to protect the personal safety of Pronet employees or agents, users
of Pronet products or services, or members of the public.
