We reserve the right to modify this privacy statement at any time, so please review it frequently.

The purpose of the theRTLSBlog website is to permit Users to voluntarily provide information about themselves, their products, their companies for the purposes of developing, maintaining and enhancing a network of professionals exchanging information about RTLS. You willingly provide us certain personal information, which we collect in order to allow you to benefit from our website. If you have any hesitation about providing such information to us and/or having such information displayed on our website or otherwise used in any manner permitted in this Privacy Policy and the User Agreement, you should not become a member of the theRTLSBlog community.

We collect your personal information in the following ways:

• Registration: In order to become a User, you may decide to register on our website. To register you are required to provide the following contact information, which you recognize and expressly acknowledge is personal information allowing others, including theRTLSBlog, to identify you: name, email address, country, ZIP/postal code, a brief summary of your professional background, and a password chosen by you.
  
• Profile Information: Once you become a User, you may provide additional information in the Profile section describing your skills, professional experiences, and objectives. Providing additional information beyond what is required at registration to become a User is entirely optional, but enables you to better identify yourself and find new opportunities in the theRTLSBlog system to build and leverage your professional network. Any information you provide at registration or in the Profile section that is not personally identifiable may be used in the same manner and extent to which other information that is not personally identifiable is permitted to be used hereunder, including for the purpose of serving advertisements through the service. If you opt-out you may lose the potential benefit of being a User, including receiving ads that are more targeted to your interests.
  
• Cookies: Like most websites, theRTLSBlog uses cookies and web log files to track site usage. A cookie is a tiny data file which resides on your computer which allows theRTLSBlog to recognize you as a User when you return to the theRTLSBlog website using the same computer and web browser. If your browser settings do not allow cookies, you may not be able to use the theRTLSBlog website. Like the information you enter at registration or in your Profile, cookie and log file data is used to customize your experience on our website. We use cookies to improve the quality of our service by storing User preferences and tracking User trends. In the course of serving advertisements or optimizing services to our Users, we may allow authorized third parties to place or recognize a unique cookie on your browser. Any information provided to third parties through such cookies will not be personally identifiable but may provide general segment information, e.g. your industry or geographic location, your occupation, or information about your professional or educational background, for greater customization of your user experience. Most browsers are initially set up to accept cookies, but you can reset your browser to refuse all cookies or to indicate when a cookie is being sent. Unfortunately, if your browser settings do not allow cookies or you opt to refuse all cookies, you may not be able to use the theRTLSBlog website or services. theRTLSBlog does not store personally identifiable information in the cookies.
  
• Web Beacons: We allow other companies, called ad networks, to serve advertisements to Users. Ad networks include third party ad servers, ad agencies, ad technology vendors and research firms. theRTLSBlog may “target” some ads to Users that fit a certain general profile such as located in California. theRTLSBlog does NOT use personally identifiable information to target ads. To deliver these ads properly, theRTLSBlog may include a file, called a web beacon, from these ad networks within pages served by theRTLSlog so the networks may provide anonymized, aggregated auditing, research and reporting for advertisers as well as to target ads to you while you visit other websites. Because your web browser must request these advertisements and web beacons from the ad network’s servers, these companies can view, edit or set their own cookies, just as if you had requested a web page from their site. These general targets may also be used by ad networks to display targeted ads on other websites as a substitute for random, irrelevant ads. theRTLSBlog does not provide personally identifiable information to any advertiser or any other third party.

Due to the communications standards on the Internet, when you visit the theRTLSBLog web site we automatically receive the URL of the site from which you came and the site to which you are going when you leave theRTLSBlog. We also receive the Internet protocol (IP) address of your computer (or the proxy server you use to access the World Wide Web), your computer operating system and type of web browser you are using, email patterns, as well as the name of your ISP. This information is used to analyze overall trends to help us improve the theRTLSBlog service. The linkage between your IP address and your personally identifiable information is not shared with third-parties without your permission or except when required by law.

Certain information you provide to theRTLSBlog may reveal, or allow others to identify, your nationality, ethnic origin, religion or other aspects of your private life, and more generally about you.
