Privacy Policy
This document was last updated March 06, 2004.

At Dent Zone, we are committed to protecting your privacy and to developing technology that gives you the most powerful and secure online experience. You can travel through most of our site without giving us any information about yourself. But sometimes we do need information to provide services that you request, and this statement of privacy explains data collection and use in those situations.

Collecting your Personal Information
We will ask you when we need information that personally identifies you (personal information) or allows us to contact you. Generally, this information is requested when you are asked to register before entering a contest, ordering e-mail newsletters, joining a limited-access premium site, or when submiting a claim. Personal information collected by Dent Zone often is limited to e-mail address, language, location, but may include other information when needed to provide a service you requested.

Use of your Personal Information
We use your personal information for four primary purposes:

To make the site easier for you to use by not making you enter your personal information more than once.

To help you quickly find software, services or information on the LINX Manager.

To help us create and deliver content most relevant to you.

To alert you to product upgrades, special offers, updated information and other new services from Dent Zone.

Information collected on Dent Zone Web Sites may be shared within Dent Zone, including its controlled subsidiaries and affiliates. Additionally, we occasionally hire other companies to provide limited services on our behalf, including packaging, mailing and delivering purchases, answering customer questions about products or services, sending postal mail and processing event registration. We will only provide those companies the information they need to deliver the service, and they are prohibited from using that information for any other purpose. We will not sell, rent or lease its customer lists to third parties. We 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.

Dent Zone will disclose your personal information, without notice, only 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 Dent Zone or the site; (b) protect and defend the rights or property of Dent Zone and its family of Web sites, and, (c) act in urgent circumstances to protect the personal safety of users of Dent Zone, its Web sites, or the public.

Control of your Personal Information
When you register, or otherwise give us personal information, Dent Zone Web Sites will not share that information with third parties without your permission, other than for the limited exceptions already listed. It will only be used for the purposes stated above.

You may update this information at any time by sending an e-mail to pdrlinx@pdrlinx.com

Security of your Personal Information
Dent Zone strictly protects the security of your personal information. We carefully protect your data from loss, misuse, unauthorized access or disclosure, alteration, or destruction.

Your personal information is never shared outside the company without your permission, except under conditions explained above. Inside the company, data is stored in password-controlled servers with limited access. Your information may be stored and processed in the United States or any other country where Dent Zone, its subsidiaries, affiliates or agents are located, and by using Dent Zone Web Sites, you consent to any such transfer outside of your country.
