Privacy Policy (last updated: July 2008)

SELECT SECURITY understands the importance of informing you how we handle personal information about you that we may receive from this website. We have created this privacy statement in order to demonstrate our firm commitment to privacy. This privacy statement discloses the information collection and disclosure practices for our Web site (the “Site”). By accessing the Site, you consent to the collection and use of information as described herein. We reserve the right to change this privacy statement at any time. If we make any material changes to our privacy statement, we will post a new statement on the Site and update the effective date set forth above. Therefore, we encourage you to check the date of our privacy statement whenever you visit the Site to see if it has been updated since your last visit.

INFORMATION WE COLLECT
Personal and/or Confidential Information. Our Site provides you with various services related to residential and commercial (including but not limited to businesses, churches, schools, etc.) security systems. In order to provide these services, we collect information from you through our Site and forward it to one or more third party persons. If you express interest in our security related solutions, we may ask you to provide personally identifying information through our Site, including but not limited to your name, address, phone number, e-mail address, and answers to questions of both personal and financial matters. This information that we gather is in compliance with certain laws and regulations. We may also collect your e-mail address as well as the email addresses of others that you voluntarily provide if you register to receive a newsletter or as part of our “Tell A Friend” service (which we use to send an email inviting the recipient to use our services).

Aggregate Information. Aggregate information is data we collect about a group or category of products, services or users, from which individual user identities have been removed. We collect aggregate information about you and your use of our services and combine it with information about how others use the same service. Such aggregate information includes, without limitation, site traffic, page views, and impressions. This information may be correlated to you for our internal use only. However, we may collect, compile, store, publish, promote, sell, or otherwise disclose or use any and all aggregate information (i.e., information that does not personally identify you).

USE OF PERSONAL INFORMATION
Personal information that you provide to us is used internally to serve our clients and to enhance and extend our relationship with our clients. For example, by understanding how you use the Site from your computer, we are able to customize and personalize your experience. More specifically, we use personal information for the purposes for which it was collected (such as to provide you with the actual service), to anticipate and resolve problems with our Site, to respond to customer support inquiries, and to send you periodic e-mail newsletters (provided you register to receive our newsletter), and for our own internal operations (including internal analysis as described below). You should review the following section to understand when we disclose personal information to third parties.

DISCLOSURE OF PERSONAL INFORMATION
Except as set forth in this privacy statement, we do not disclose, sell, rent, loan, trade or lease any personally identifying information collected at our Site to any third party not directly affiliated with SELECT SECURITY. This includes but is not limited to equipment manufacturers, suppliers, or distributors or the like. We will disclose personal information in the following circumstances:

• Internal Analysis and Operations. We will use and disclose information about you for our own internal statistical, design or operational purposes, such as to estimate our audience size, measure aggregate traffic patterns, and to understand demographics, user interests, purchasing and/or other trends among our users. We may outsource these tasks and disclose personal information about you to third parties, provided the use and disclosure of your personal information by these third parties is restricted to performance of such tasks. We may also share personal information with third-party vendors who assist us in performing the internal functions necessary to operate our business. We require our third party vendors to keep such information confidential and to only use the information for the purpose it was provided.

• Transaction Processing. We will disclose personal information to persons as necessary to perform services for you. As stated above, your personal information is forwarded to one or more entities in order to provide you with information related to the purchase and installation of a home or business security service. Occasionally, if you are located outside of our installation area, your information will be forwarded to a partner company that will handle your request for information. Your information is forwarded ONLY if there is interest in obtaining information on or purchasing and installing a security system. Your personal information will never be sold, transferred, etc. to anyone for any reason outside of our company or our 3 partner companies. SELECT SECURITY will only share your information with persons or entities directly involved in the purchase, installation or use of a security system. If you ever have any concerns regarding our privacy policy and the way we handle your personal information, please contact us at web-privacy@selectsecurity.com.

• Protection of SELECT SECURITY and Others: We disclose personal information when we believe it is appropriate to comply with the law (e.g., a lawful subpoena, warrant or court order); to enforce or apply this privacy statement or our other policies or agreements; to initiate, render, bill, and collect for amounts owed to us; to protect our own or our users’ rights, property or safety; or to protect our users from fraudulent, abusive, or unlawful use of our Site; or if we reasonably believe that an emergency involving immediate danger of death or serious physical injury to any person requires disclosure of communications or justifies disclosure of records without delay.

• Business Transfers. In addition, information about users of our Site, including personally identifiable information provided to us by our users, may be disclosed as part of any merger, acquisition, debt financing, sale of company assets, as well as in the event of an insolvency, bankruptcy or receivership in which personally identifiable information could be transferred to third parties as one of the business assets of the company.

LINKS
Please be aware that we may provide links to third party Web sites as a service to our users, and we are not responsible for the content or information collection practices of those sites. We have no ability to control the privacy and data collection practices of these sites, and the privacy policies of such site may differ from that of SELECT SECURITY. Therefore, we encourage you to review and understand the privacy policies of such site before providing them with any information.

COOKIES AND WEB BEACONS
We may use cookies to identify users and customize their experience on our site based on information they give us. Cookies are small pieces of information or files that are stored on a user’s computer by the Web server through a user’s browser for record keeping purposes. A cookie itself is not designed or intended to read any information from your computer (other than the contents of the cookie); rather, it is an identifier used by the Web site that originally placed it on your hard drive. The actual contents of the cookie information can be retrieved by the same site’s Web server in order to personalize, monitor, or regulate the use of the site. We do not use Web beacons, or similar technology on our Site. However, we permit third parties to place Web beacons on our Site to monitor the effectiveness of advertising and for other lawful purposes if applicable. A Web beacon, also known as a “Web bug,” is a small, graphic image on a Web page, Web-based document or in an e-mail message that is designed to allow the site owner or a third party to monitor who is visiting a site. Web beacons collect non-personally identifying information such as the IP address of the computer that the Web beacon is sent to, the URL of the page the Web beacon comes from and the time it was viewed. We do not use (or permit third parties to use) Web beacons to collect personally identifying information about you.

SECURITY
We use reasonable security measures to store and maintain personally identifying information to protect it from loss, misuse, alteration or destruction by any unauthorized party while it is under our control. If SELECT SECURITY ever finds evidence of a security breach, we will immediately notify all visitors to this site via email if you have provided an email to us. If you ever have concerns, please contact us at web-privacy@selectsecurity.com.

CHILDREN
We do not intend to, and this Site is not designed to, collect personal information from children under the age of 16. If you are under 16 years of age, you should not register for our services or otherwise provide information on our Site without the consent of your parent(s) or guardian(s).
