1. THE INFORMATION WE COLLECT
We and our service providers may collect information when you provide information to us and when information is collected automatically from your interaction with the Services.

Personal Information
You may choose to give us personal information online to allow us to communicate with you, or provide you with Services. Our online forms ask for a small amount of relevant information, such as name, company name, email address, postal address, and telephone number. Individuals who apply for jobs may be requested to provide information that includes, but is not limited to, educational background, employment experience, and job interest.

The types of personal information CMCU may collect from you may include:

  • Personal and business contact information, such as name, postal address, phone number, and email address;
  • Financial information, other billing information;
  • Other unique information such as user IDs and passwords, product functionality, product and service preferences, contact preferences, educational and employment background, and job interest data;
  • Geolocation data such as your Internet Protocol (IP) address, physical location, and other similar location information collected when you interact with the Services;
  • Details of the Services you have purchased from us, accessed, or which you have inquired about, together with any additional information necessary to deliver those Services and to respond to your inquiries;
  • Any additional information relating to you that you provide to us directly through our websites or applications or indirectly through the Services, through our representatives or otherwise; and
  • Information you provide to us, including through customer surveys or visits by our representatives from time to time.

Usage Information
In addition to the information you may provide, CMCU may collect information when you access or use the Services or a website "powered by" another company on behalf of CMCU through our use of data collection technologies, including web beacons, Cookies (as defined in the following paragraph), and embedded web links. These technologies collect certain traffic information that your browser sends to a website, such as your browser type and language, browser history, access times, and the address of the website from which you arrived. They may also collect information about your IP address, unique device identifier, geolocation information, clickstream behavior (e.g., the pages you view, the links you click, and other actions you take in connection with CMCU websites or "powered by" websites) and product information. CMCU may also use some of these technologies in connection with emails and communications sent from CMCU and therefore may collect information using these tools when you open the email or click on a link contained in the email.

Below is some additional detail on how we use Cookies and other technologies:

Cookies. Cookies are data files placed on a device when you use it to visit the Services ("Cookies"). We may use Cookies: (i) to collect and store certain information about you, (ii) for security purposes, (iii) to store your preferences and settings, (iv) to provide personalized product suggestions, (v) to maintain and improve our website, (vi) to generate analytics regarding the performance of the Services, (vii) to facilitate site navigation, and (viii) to personalize your experience while using the Services. Cookies can remain in your computer for the duration of a browsing session or for a predetermined period of time. Cookies that remain in your computer for the duration of a browsing session are called "session" cookies. Cookies that remain in your computer for a predetermined period of time are called "persistent" cookies. We may use persistent cookies to show you recently-viewed products, provide you with product or service recommendations, or otherwise provide you with a customized experience.

If you would prefer not to accept Cookies, most browsers will allow you to: (i) change your browser settings to notify you when you receive a Cookie, which lets you choose whether or not to accept it; (ii) disable existing Cookies; or (iii) set your browser to automatically reject any Cookies.

Please be aware that if you disable or reject Cookies, some features and services offered or present on the Services may be slower or may not work or display properly.

Other Technologies. We may use standard Internet technology, such as web beacons (also called clear GIFs or pixel tags) and other similar technologies, to track your use of our Services.

Collection by Other Companies. We may allow other companies, including our authorized service providers, advertising agencies and marketing partners to use tracking technologies, such as Cookies and web beacons, to collect information about your visits to this and other websites on the Services. This information generally enables them to track and gauge the effectiveness of our Services and of various marketing campaigns and to serve ads about goods and services that may be of interest to you when you visit other websites across the Internet.

When you provide information via the Services, for example to apply for a job, we will also share your information with our affiliates to enable them to inform you of jobs, products, promotions, or other offers that may be of interest to you.

Service Providers
CMCU retains service providers and suppliers to manage or support its business operations, provide professional services, deliver products, services and customer solutions and to assist with marketing and communication initiatives. These providers include, for example, hosting and IT service providers, website management and support service providers, email service providers, automated data processors, credit card processors, debt collectors, shipping agents, and providers of marketing, communications, order fulfillment, delivery, customer support talent acquisition and employment management services. We may share your information with these companies to enable them to provide you with services on our behalf, and for the purpose of conducting general business analysis. For example, we may share website usage and marketing information with our marketing partners.

In addition, if you inquire about products, services, software or other goods that CMCU does not sell directly, we may forward your information to a CMCU dealer, distributor or other reseller, and they may reach out to you about your needs. In any event, we expect our service providers to use your information only to perform the service for which they are engaged, while also complying with all applicable laws, and pursuant to our instructions. You expressly consent to your information being used as set forth in this Section.

From time to time, CMCU participates in initiatives, which include websites "powered by" another company on behalf of CMCU. As part of these initiatives, certain CMCU services and communications may be delivered at the same time as those from other companies. Some of these services and communications offer you the option to share personal information with both CMCU and the other companies participating in these initiatives. For example, you may receive communications from CMCU and other companies or have the opportunity to register online for software products from multiple companies. You can always choose to opt out of receiving communications from those other companies. If you choose to provide personal information to the other companies with different privacy policies and practices, that personal information will be handled according to the respective privacy statements and policies of those companies, which may differ from CMCU’s policies and practices.

Legal Proceedings
We may also share your personal information:

  • In response to a subpoena or similar investigative demand, a court order, or a request for cooperation from law enforcement or other government agency; to establish or exercise our legal rights; to defend against legal claims; or as otherwise required by law; (In such cases, we may raise or waive any legal objection or right available to us.)
  • When we believe disclosure is appropriate in connection with efforts to investigate, prevent, or take other action regarding illegal activity, suspected fraud or other wrongdoing; to protect and defend the rights, property or safety of our company, our users, our employees, or others; to comply with applicable law or cooperate with law enforcement; or to enforce our website Terms of Use or other agreements or policies; and
