statement for additional details.
ARIS is a targeted audience web site, intended for users
of all ages. All personal information collected from
visitors is used and disclosed as described in this Privacy
Statement.
Collection of your Personal Information
As part of information and demonstration
requests, ARIS may collect personal information, such as
your e-mail
address, name, company name, title, address or telephone
number.
ARIS
may also collect demographic information, such as
your postal code and preferences. Information collected
by the ARIS website
may be combined with information obtained from other
ARIS marketing activities.
ARIS keeps track of the pages visited within the ARIS website
in order to determine those that are the most popular. ARIS
also collects certain information about your computer hardware
and software. This information may include: your IP address,
browser type, domain names, access times and referring Web
site addresses.
Use of your Personal Information
ARIS uses your personal information to inform you of products,
services or offers available that it offers. ARIS may also
contact you via surveys to conduct research about your opinion
of current products and services or of potential new products
and services that may be offered.
ARIS does not use or disclose any information collected
on its website without your explicit consent. ARIS does not
sell, rent or lease its customer lists to third parties.
ARIS may, from time to time, contact you on behalf of external
business partners about a particular offering that may be
of interest to you. In those cases, your personal information
(e-mail, name, address, telephone number) is not transferred
to the third party.
We occasionally hire other companies to provide limited
services on our behalf, such as handling the processing and
delivery of mailings, providing customer support or performing
statistical analysis of our services. We will only provide
those companies the personal information they need to deliver
the service. They are required to maintain the confidentiality
of your information and are prohibited from using that information
for any other purpose.
ARIS may access and/or disclose your personal information
if required to do so by law or in the good faith belief that
such action is necessary to: (a) conform to the edicts of
the law or comply with legal process served on ARIS or the
site; (b) protect and defend the rights or property of ARIS
or its websites; or (c) act under exigent circumstances to
protect the personal safety of users of ARIS services or
members of the public.
Personal information collected on this site may be stored
and processed in the United States or any other country in
which ARIS or its affiliates, subsidiaries or agents maintain
facilities, and by using this site, you consent to any such
transfer of information outside of your country. ARIS abides
by the safe harbor framework as set forth by the U.S. Department
of Commerce regarding the collection, use, and retention
of data from the European Union.
Control of your Personal Information
ARIS offers its customers choices for the use of personal
information.

such e-mails.
You may unsubscribe ARIS Newsletters. Each ARIS newsletter
that you receive will have instructions on how to unsubscribe
prominently mentioned in it.
Security of your Personal Information
ARIS is committed to protecting the security of your personal
information. We use a variety of security technologies and
procedures to help protect your personal information from
unauthorized access, use, or disclosure. For example, we
store the personal information you provide on computer systems
with limited access, which are located in controlled facilities.
When we transmit highly confidential information over the
Internet, we protect it through the use of encryption, such
as the Secure Socket Layer (SSL) protocol.
Use of Cookies
ARIS may use "cookies" to help you personalize
your online experience. A cookie is a text file that is placed
on your hard disk by a Web page server. Cookies cannot be
used to run programs or deliver viruses to your computer.
Cookies are uniquely assigned to you, and can only be read
by a web server in the domain that issued the cookie to you.
One of the primary purposes of cookies is to provide a convenience
feature to save you time. For example, if you register with
ARIS for on line demonstration, training or support services,
a cookie helps ARIS to recall your specific information on
subsequent visits. This simplifies the process of recording
your personal information, such as login name, preferred
email address, and so on. When you return to ARIS, the information
you previously provided can be retrieved, so you can easily
use related features.
You have the ability to accept or decline cookies. Most
Web browsers automatically accept cookies, but you can usually
modify your browser setting to decline cookies if you prefer.
If you choose to decline cookies, you may not be able to
fully experience interactive features.
