Aperio ePathology Solutions

Introduction
This Privacy Policy applies to all information collected by Aperio Technologies, Inc. ("Aperio" or "we") through this web site.

Personal Information
You may choose to provide Personal Information (such as your name, address, telephone number and email address) on this web site. Here are some of the ways you may provide the information and the types of information you may submit.

Contact Us
If you email us through the "Contact Us" link on this site, submit support requests through the site, or if you call us for any technical or user support using a number posted on our site, we may ask you for information such as your name and email address so we can respond to your questions and comments. You may choose to provide additional information as well. We also collect in our databases all information an employment applicant submits in a résumé and/or employment application. 

Forms, Questionnaires and Surveys
We occasionally may ask visitors to our web site to complete online surveys and opinion polls about their activities, attitudes and interests. These surveys help us serve you better and improve the usefulness of our site. In conducting these surveys we may ask you for your name and email address. We do not collect any personal information about you in connection with your participation in an Aperio.com survey unless you specifically agree to provide that information.

Public Features
Certain portions of our site may permit you to make voluntary public postings, such as on a message forum, in a chat room, on a blog, or through other "social networking" related features. We reserve the right to edit or remove any information, in whole or in part, Aperio's sole discretion is objectionable, disruptive to the web site, or in violation of any other terms and conditions of the web site. Any personal information you publicly post or submit using such portions of our web site are voluntary and at your own risk, and will automatically be publicly posted on the site, and we cannot guarantee the protection or privacy of such information. You therefore should be very careful about posting any personally identifiable information to any interactive portions of our web site.

Except as provided in this Privacy Policy, or unless we attempt to notify you to the contrary, we only use the personal information we collect from you to process your requests and transactions, offer or furnish to you additional products and services, and to personalize the types of information you receive from Aperio.com.

Non-Personal Information
We collect certain aggregate and non-personal information when you visit this web site. Aggregate and non-personal information does not relate to a single identifiable visitor. Examples of such information include general information about your internet service provider and host, your IP address, the web browser you use, and the date, time, and duration of your visit to our web site. By collecting this information, we learn how to best tailor our web site to our visitors. We may collect this information, in some instances, either through "cookie" technology or with "web beacons," as explained below.

Cookies
Like many companies, we use browser cookies on this web site. Browser cookies are bits of text that are placed on your computer's hard drive when you visit certain web sites. We use browser cookies to help us identify site features in which you may have the greatest interest. Browser cookies may enhance your online experience by saving your preferences while you are visiting a particular site. However, you can change your browser settings and choose whether to accept or decline cookies. The toolbar on most browsers will tell you how to stop accepting new browser cookies, how to be notified when you receive a new browser cookie, and how to disable existing browser cookies. Without browser cookies, you may not be able to take full advantage of all our web site features and advertisers and other links on the website. We may also use flash cookies on our web site to enhance your online experience. Flash cookies are similar to browser cookies, except that they can store data more complex than simple text. Flash cookies, by themselves, cannot do anything to or with the data on your computer. In addition, flash cookies cannot access or remember your email address or other personal information unless you provide the information on this site. We may use flash cookies to provide you with a better user experience. You can manage and disable flash cookies by clicking here for Manage and Disable Flash Cookies.

Web Beacons
Certain pages on our site may contain "web beacons" (also known as Internet tags, pixel tags and clear GIFs). These web beacons allow third parties to obtain information such as the IP address of the computer that downloaded the page on which the beacon appears, the URL of the page on which the beacon appears, the time the page containing the beacon was viewed, the type of browser used to view the page, and the information in cookies set by the third party. We use log files to store the data that is collected through web beacons. Aperio.com also uses third party web beacons for statistical analysis purposes and to help manage online advertising. These web beacons are provided and used by Google Analytics, a service provided by Google, Inc. ("Google"). These files enable Google to recognize a unique cookie on your web browser, which in turn enables us to learn which advertisements bring users to our web site. With both cookies and web beacon technology, the information that we collect and share is anonymous and not personally identifiable. It does not contain your name, address, telephone number, or email address. To learn more information about Google Analytics, including information about how to opt out of these technologies, click here.

Information We Share
We do not sell or otherwise disclose personal information about our web site visitors, except as described in this Privacy Policy. We may share your personal information with service providers we have retained to perform services on our behalf. These service providers are contractually restricted from using or disclosing the information except as necessary to perform services on our behalf or to comply with legal requirements. In addition, we may disclose information about you (i) if we are required to do so by law or legal process, (ii) to law enforcement authorities or other government officials, or (iii) when we believe disclosure is necessary or appropriate to prevent physical harm, fraud, or financial loss or in connection with an investigation of suspected or actual illegal activity. We reserve the right to edit or remove any information, in whole or in part, that in Aperio's sole discretion is objectionable, disruptive to the web site, or violates any other terms and conditions of the web site. We also reserve the right to transfer any information we have about you in the event we sell or transfer all or a portion of our business or assets. Should such a sale or transfer occur, we will use reasonable efforts to direct the transferee to use personal information you have provided through this web site in a manner that is consistent with this Privacy Policy.

Résumés and other materials submitted by job applicants may be viewed by Aperio's human resources department personnel, hiring managers, employees who will be interviewing the candidate, and the administrative assistants to these individuals for applicant screening and hiring purposes, and for general human resources purposes.

Our use and permitted disclosure of aggregate and non-personally identifying information is unrestricted. We may sell or license such information to third parties. According to Google, the information generated by Google about your use of this web site (including your IP address) will be transmitted to and stored by Google on servers in the United States. Google will use this information for the purpose of evaluating your use of this web site, compiling reports on website activity for Aperio, and providing other services relating to website activity and internet usage. Google may also transfer this information to third parties where required to do so by law, or where such third parties process the information on Google's behalf. Google will not associate your IP address with any other data held by Google.

Information We Transfer
We may transfer the personal information we collect on this site to other countries where we do business, but we will do so only for the purposes described above. When we transfer your information to other countries, we will protect that information as described here unless otherwise required by applicable laws.

Links to Other Sites
We provide links to other web sites for your convenience and information. This privacy policy does not apply to these other web sites. These sites may have their own privacy policies in place, which we recommend you review if you visit any linked web sites. We are not responsible for the content of linked sites or any use of the sites, or for the privacy or security of any information you provide to any linked web site or to any other third party that is provided by linking to that site

Children’s Privacy
This web site is not directed to children under the age of thirteen and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under the age of thirteen on the site. If we become aware that we have inadvertently received personal information from a visitor under the age of thirteen on the site, we will delete the information from our records. Some links on Aperio.com may take web site visitors to sites that are directed to children. These web sites may have their own privacy notices that address children's privacy. We encourage you to read these privacy notices if you visit any linked sites directed to children.

Updates to Our Privacy Policy
This Privacy Policy may be updated periodically and without prior notice to you to reflect changes in our online information practices. Please regularly check this privacy policy to make sure you are aware of our most current practices. We will indicate at the top of the policy when it was most recently updated.

Security
We have put in place reasonably appropriate physical, electronic, and/or procedural safeguards to protect your Personal Information. However, even with such measures, Aperio cannot guarantee that unauthorized third parties will not be able to bypass these measures or otherwise capture such information. We will not be liable to you for any third party's unauthorized access to or use of your personally identifiable information. Therefore, you are ultimately responsible to protect any personal information you submit, including using a secure browser and connection, using anti-virus software, and using appropriate and secure passwords and password protocols.
