Legal Disclaimer: We may also disclose your personal information:

• as required by law, such as to comply with a subpoena, or similar legal process
• when we believe in good faith that disclosure is necessary to protect our rights, protect your safety or the safety of others, investigate fraud, or respond to a government request,
• if Matrix Servers is involved in a merger, acquisition, or sale of all or a portion of its assets, you will be notified via email and/or a prominent notice on our Web site of any change in ownership or uses of your personal information, as well as any choices you may have regarding your personal information,
• to any other third party with your prior consent to do so.

4. Tracking Technologies / Cookies

A cookie is a small text file that is stored on a user’s computer for record-keeping purposes. We use cookies on this site. We do not link the information we store in cookies to any personally identifiable information you submit while on our site. We use both session ID cookies and persistent cookies. A session ID cookie expires when you close your browser. Our session ID cookies measure the starting page and existing page of the visitor to www.matrixserver.us and www.matrixserver.ca. A persistent cookie remains on your hard drive for an extended period of time. Our persistent cookies assign visitors a session ID which remembers the users’ native language preference. They also measure the unique vs. repeat visitor statistics of our website viewers via Google Analytics coding. You can remove persistent cookies by following directions provided in your Internet browser’s “help” file.

If you reject cookies, you may still use our site, but your ability to use some areas of our site, such as contests or surveys, will be limited.

Web Beacons/Gifs

• We also employ a software technology called clear gifs (a.k.a. Web Beacons), that help us better manage content on our site by informing us what content is effective. Clear gifs are tiny graphics with a unique identifier, similar in function to cookies, and are used to track the online movements of Web users. In contrast to cookies, which are stored on a user’s computer hard drive, clear gifs are embedded invisibly on Web pages and are about the size of the period at the end of this sentence. We do not tie the information gathered by clear gifs to our customers’ personally identifiable information.

Analytics/Log Files

• As is true of most web sites, we gather certain information automatically and store it in log files. This information includes internet protocol (IP) addresses, browser type, internet service provider (ISP), referring/exit pages, operating system, date/time stamp, and clickstream data.

3rd Party Tracking

• The use of cookies by our partners, affiliates or service providers is not covered by our privacy policy. We do not have access or control over these cookies. Our third party partners also employ clear gifs (a.k.a. Web Beacons/Web Bugs), images, and scripts that help them better manage content on our site. We do not tie the information gathered to our Customers’ or Users’ personally identifiable information.

5. Security

The use of cookies by our partners, affiliates or service providers is not covered by our privacy policy. We do not have access or control over these cookies. Our third party partners also employ clear gifts (a.k.a. Web Beacons/Web Bugs), images, and scripts that help them better manage content on our site. We do not tie the information gathered to our Customers’ or Users’ personally identifiable information.

In some cases, we may not be able to remove your personal information, in which case we will let you know if we are unable to do so and why.

Referrals

• If you choose to use our referral service to tell a friend about our site or a comment you made on our site, we will ask you for your friend’s name and email address. We will automatically send your friend a one-time email inviting him or her to visit the site. Matrix Servers stores this information for the sole purpose of sending this one-time email. Your friend may contact us at info@matrixserver.us to request that we remove this information from our database.

Social Media Widgets

• Our Web site includes Social Media Features, such as the Google+ button and other Widgets, such as the Share this button and a Twitter Feed. These Features may collect your IP address, which page you are visiting on our site, and may set a cookie to enable the Feature to function properly. Social Media Features and Widgets are either hosted by a third party or hosted directly on our Site. Your interactions with these Features are governed by the privacy policy of the company providing it.
