Privacy Statement

This web site is owned and operated by Future Net Solutions. Your privacy on the Internet is of the utmost importance to us. Therefore we want to make your experience online satisfying and safe.

Because we gather certain types of information about our users, we feel you should fully understand our policy and the terms and conditions surrounding the capture and use of that information. This privacy statement discloses what information we gather and how we use it.

INFORMATION FUTURE NET SOLUTIONS GATHERS AND TRACKS

Future Net Solutions gathers two types of information about users:

• Information that users provide through optional, voluntary submissions, for example registration to attend a seminar or webinar, requesting information about OSF or our services, requesting a complimentary evaluation, participation in an online survey, participation in a  forum, or through a job application.
• Information that Future Net Solutions gathers through aggregated tracking information derived mainly by tallying page views throughout our sites. This information allows us to better tailor our content to readers’ needs and to help us better understand the demographics of our audience. Under no circumstances does Future Net Solutions divulge any information about an individual user to a third party.
• The contact information you provide will be used solely by Future Net Solutions to communicate with you. We will not pass your contact information to a third party.

Children

Consistent with the international legislation, we will never knowingly request personally identifiable information from anyone under the age of 13 without requesting parental consent.

Usage tracking

Future Net Solutions tracks user traffic patterns throughout our site. However, we do not correlate this information with data about individual users. Future Net Solutions does break down overall usage statistics according to a user’s domain name, browser type, and MIME type by reading this information from the browser string (information contained in every user’s browser).

Future Net Solutions sometimes tracks and catalogs the search terms that users enter in our Search function, but this tracking is never associated with individual users. We use tracking information to determine which areas of our sites users like and don’t like based on traffic to those areas. We do not track what individual users read, but rather how well each page performs overall. This helps us continue to build a better service for you.

Cookies

Like many web sites, Future Net Solutions uses automatic data collection tools, such as cookies and embedded web links. These tools collect certain standard information that your browser sends to our web site, such as your browser type and the address of the web site from which you arrived at our web site. They may also collect information about your Internet Protocol (IP) address and clickstream behavior (for example, the pages you view and the links you click). These tools help make your visit to our web site easier, more efficient and more valuable by providing you with a customized experience and recognizing you when you return.

The cookie itself does not contain Personal Information although it will enable us to relate your use of this site to information that you have specifically and knowingly provided. But the only personal information a cookie can contain is information you supply yourself. A cookie can’t read data off your hard disk or read cookie files created by other sites. Future Net Solutions uses cookies to track user traffic patterns (as described above).

You can refuse cookies by turning them off in your browser. If you’ve set your browser to warn you before accepting cookies, you will receive the warning message with each cookie. You do not need to have cookies turned on to use this site. However, you do need cookies to participate actively in polling and surveys.

USE OF INFORMATION

Future Net Solutions uses any information voluntarily given by our users to enhance their experience in our site, whether to provide interactive or personalized elements on the sites or to better prepare future content based on the interests of our users.

We use tracking information to determine which areas of our sites users like based on traffic to those areas. We do not track what individual users read, but rather how well each page performs overall. This helps us continue to build a better service for you. We track search terms entered in Search function as one of many measures of what interests our users. But we don’t track which terms a particular user enters.

SHARING OF THE INFORMATION

Future Net Solutions uses the above-described information to tailor our content to suit your needs and to help us better understand our audience’s demographics.
