The collection of personal information
In general, you can visit our site without divulging any personal information. Obviously, the IEC will collect personal information from you, like your name, e-mail address, company name, telephone number and limited demographic data when its products and services are being purchased. There are other instances when using the site where the IEC may request this personal information e.g. when viewing restricted online offerings, downloading tutorials etc. In these instances your response to these inquiries is strictly voluntary, however, that portion of the site may not be available to those choosing not to reveal the personal information requested.
The IEC may use this personal information for its business purposes, such as to alerting you to its products and services, promoting conference registration and assisting in website registration.
The IEC may share your information (with the exception of account, credit card, and ordering information) with third parties, e.g. specific sponsoring organizations; companies that can alert you about new products and services; and certain organizations when we believe in good faith that the law requires it. Except as stated in this Privacy Statement, or as otherwise stated at the time personal information is gathered, we will not provide this information to third parties.
Collecting domain information
The IEC also collects domain information as part of its analysis of the use of this site. This data enables us to become more familiar with which customers visit our site, how often they visit, and what parts of the site they visit most often. The IEC uses this information to improve its Web-based offerings. This information is collected automatically and requires no action on your part.
