How We Protect Your Personal Information
Data you enter during a visit to an Interwise Web site is stored on systems
using the same security standards and procedures that protect our company's
essential business data. Access to your data is restricted to use for Interwise
business purposes and based on “need to know”. We may transfer
and store your data in other Interwise data centers that are all under the
control of Interwise Corporation, following the same security standards and
procedures. Any sensitive or personal data that you may enter for online
e-commerce transactions with Interwise, such as credit card or purchase order
information, will be transmitted in an encrypted form requiring the use of
a secure browser. By using the Interwise Web site to enter into a credit
card transaction, you are consenting to Interwise transferring your encrypted
credit card information and the dollar amount of the transaction to external
companies for credit verification.
Cookies
As you probably know, 'cookies' are small pieces of information that many
Web sites store on your computer's hard drive. The Interwise Web site uses
cookies to enhance your visit, for example, by varying the images you see.
On some sections of the Interwise Web we store your user name and password
to make it easier for you to navigate from one secure section to another
without having to re-enter your password each time. With your permission,
'cookies' will also be used to store your user name and/or password for our
Community sites so that you do not have to provide them at the time of entry.
We never use 'cookies' to store any type of personal information. You can
set your browser preferences to notify you when you receive a cookie, giving
you the chance to decide whether to accept it. If you elect not to accept
a cookie it will not affect your access to information on our sites.
Links to External Web Sites
As a convenience to you, we sometimes provide links to other Web sites.
These sites are not under the control of Interwise; and the fact that Interwise
provides such links is not an indication that Interwise endorses or is liable
for those sites or their content.
We have implemented this policy for www.interwise.com. If the privacy practices
of our Interwise Web site changes from those stated in this Privacy Policy,
the data collection pages of those sites will inform visitors of such changes
and the Privacy Policy will be updated.
