MicroAge respects the privacy of

used, and disclosed by MicroAge only in accordance with applicable
privacy legislation. Personal information is defined as information
about an identifiable individual, with the exception of business
contact information such as a job title or work-related telephone
number, postal address, or email address.
By accessing MicroAge’s website, you

Information Collection and Use
If you request information, products or services, enter a contest or
respond to a promotional offer, questionnaire or survey, you may be
asked for personal information. We value your privacy and will keep
such information secure. However, we reserve the right to disclose
information where required by law; at all times to comply with valid
legal processes such as a search warrant, subpoena or court order;
to protect MicroAge’s rights and property; or during emergencies
when safety is at risk.
MicroAge may decide to use your account
information and transaction history to generate statistics and
reports for internal use, as well as to offer you products and
services by telephone, regular mail, or email.
If you wish, you can ask that your
personal information not be used for marketing and promotional
purposes. This can be done online when you initially provide the
information, or by notifying us in writing at a later date.
Information That Does Not Identify
You
MicroAge may share non-personal or summary information that does not
identify you with advertisers, partners or other third parties.
MicroAge logs certain technical
information from your computer’s web browser when you visit us on
the Internet. This information includes your Internet address, the
address of the website you are coming from, the amount of time you
spend visiting our website, the pages visited, the operating system
and web browser software you use, and, if you link to us through a
search engine, the keywords you use to find our website. The logs do
not record personal information, can be accessed only by MicroAge,
and are used solely to track visits to our site and improve its
content and layout. MicroAge never attempts to tie this information
to particular individuals visiting our website, unless that is
necessary for investigating a security breach.
When you visit our website, you are
assigned a temporary text file called a cookie through your web
browser. It is placed on your computer for programming purposes only
and enhances your use of the site by providing a unique identifier
as you move from page to page. If you use the search engine, it
remembers the keywords you enter. The cookie is never redirected to
servers outside MicroAge.
Disclosure and Retention of Your
Information
The personal information you provide through our site is never
disclosed to third parties without your consent. We do not sell or
trade your personal information to other organizations or companies,
and it is shared with others only in the ways explained to you at
the time it is disclosed.
The account information you provide is
stored in our secure databases. You must notify us in writing if you
no longer want us to maintain your information.
Accuracy of Your Information
MicroAge relies exclusively on you for its information about you,
except for obtaining independent verification of credit card
information. To ensure that you are kept up-to-date on the products
and services we offer, and that there is no interruption in our
communications with you, please contact us to advise us of any
changes in your information or if you wish to confirm the accuracy
of the information we hold.
How Your Information Is Kept Safe
during Transmission
MicroAge strives to provide a secure online environment for the
