  • To follow up with you after correspondence (filling out an on-line form, email or phone inquiries)

How do we protect your information?

Our website is scanned on a regular basis for security holes and known vulnerabilities in order to make your visit to our site as safe as possible.

We implement a variety of security measures when a user enters or submits their information to maintain the safety of your personal information.

All transactions are processed through a gateway provider and are not stored or processed on our servers..

Do we use 'cookies'?

We do not use cookies for tracking purposes on our website, however, cookies are used by a third party marketing automation platform that we use when we create targeted email campaigns for marketing efforts to promote our business or to make an announcement.  They are only used to track open and click through rates and for no other purpose.  We do not collect—nor is it possible to collect--the email address of anyone to whom the email might be forwarded by you.

You can choose to have your computer warn you each time a cookie is being sent, or you can choose to turn off all cookies. You do this through your browser settings. Since each browser is a little different, look at your browser's Help Menu to learn the correct way to modify your cookies. 

Third-party disclosure

We do not sell, trade, or otherwise transfer to outside parties your Personally Identifiable Information unless we provide users with advance notice. This does not include website hosting partners and other parties who assist us in operating our website, conducting our business, or serving our users, so long as those parties agree to keep this information confidential. We may also release information when its release is appropriate to comply with the law, enforce our site policies, or protect ours or others' rights, property or safety. 

Third-party links

We do not include or offer third-party products or services on our website.

Google

We have not enabled Google AdSense on our site but we may do so in the future.

For European contacts that are also Digital Bedrock customers, your information will be maintained in our contracts files as outlined in the privacy policy, as this information is critical to deliver service, support and policy information and updates for your business. 

CAN-SPAM Act

The CAN-SPAM Act is a law that sets the rules for commercial email, establishes requirements for commercial messages, gives recipients the right to have emails stopped from being sent to them, and spells out tough penalties for violations.  Digital Bedrock is in compliance with all CAN-SPAM Act provisions, except one: as part of our business operations, we do not list a physical address as added security to our clients.  We maintain compliance with the other provisions of the act as outlined below: 

We collect your email address in order to:

  • Send information, respond to inquiries, and/or other requests or questions

  • Market to our mailing list or continue to send emails to our clients after the original transaction has occurred.

To be in accordance with CAN-SPAM, an organization must agree to the following:

  • Not use false or misleading subjects or email addresses.

  • Identify the message as an advertisement in some reasonable way.

  • Monitor third-party email marketing services for compliance, if one is used.

  • Honor opt-out/unsubscribe requests quickly.

  • Allow users to unsubscribe by using the link at the bottom of each email.  If at any time you would like to unsubscribe from receiving future emails, you can follow the instructions at the bottom of each email to be removed from ALL correspondence.

  • Follow the instructions at the bottom of each email, and we will promptly remove you from ALL correspondence.

Fair Information Practices

The Fair Information Practices Principles form the backbone of privacy law in the United States and the concepts they include have played a significant role in the development of data protection laws around the globe. Understanding the Fair Information Practice Principles and how they should be implemented is critical to comply with the various privacy laws that protect personal information.

In order to be in line with Fair Information Practices we will take the following responsive action, should a data breach occur:

We will notify you via email

  •  Within 7 business days

We also agree to the Individual Redress Principle which requires that individuals have the right to legally pursue enforceable rights against data collectors and processors who fail to adhere to the law. This principle requires not only that individuals have enforceable rights against data users, but also that individuals have recourse to courts or government agencies to investigate and/or prosecute non-compliance by data processors.
