LumaSense uses the personal data information you provide to answer your questions or resolve your problems.

We may use this information to contact you in the future to tell you about products or services we believe will be of interest to you. If we do so, each communication we send you will contain instructions permitting you to “opt-out” of receiving future communications.

Similarly, we may provide “subscription” e-mail services, either directly or through our affiliates, which enable you to receive current news about LumaSense’s products or related conditions and procedures. For all such services, we will provide an opportunity to “opt-out” of, or cancel, the subscription.

We may share some or all of the personal data collected through the LumaSense Websites with our affiliates, who may use this data in accordance with this Privacy Policy. Both we and our affiliates may share personal data collected through the LumaSense Websites with third-party vendors who act for or on behalf of us or our affiliates (for example, companies that provide support services to us, including data processing services, or that help us market our products and services). These companies may need information about you in order to perform their functions. These companies are not authorized to use the information we share with them for any other purpose. In addition, there may be some other, limited circumstances in which we or our affiliates may share or transfer the personal data in our databases, for example, to comply with a legal requirement, for the administration of justice, to protect your vital interests, or in the event of a corporate sale, merger, reorganization, dissolution, or similar event.

In addition to the information you provide when you use the LumaSense Websites, LumaSense uses technology to collect anonymous information about the use of the LumaSense Websites. For example, we use technology to track how many visitors access the LumaSense Websites, the date and time of their visit, the length of their stay, and which pages they view. We also use technology to determine which web browsers our visitors use and the address from which they accessed our sites (for example, if they connected to a LumaSense Website by clicking on one of our banner ads).

This technology does not identify you personally. It simply enables us to compile statistics about our visitors and their use of the LumaSense Websites. LumaSense and its affiliates use this anonymous data and share it with third parties to improve the content and functionality of the LumaSense Websites, to better understand our customers and markets, and to improve our products and services.

We use this information to better understand our users and customize our site for users’ particular preferences. In the same manner, we may also engage third parties to monitor the usage of the LumaSense Websites.

While we have implemented safeguards, you should be aware that Internet security technology rapidly changes. As such, we cannot guarantee that the safeguards we employ today can protect your personal information from the threats of tomorrow, or that our security measures are failsafe and not subject to circumvention or unauthorized intrusion. You should also be aware that, despite our best efforts, factors beyond our control may result in disclosure of data.
