Purpose of Policy
Welcome to the OSHA SafetyManual.com family of services, software applications and websites (the “Services”). OSHA SafetyManual.com, Inc. (“our”, “us” or “we”) is committed to respecting the privacy rights of its customers, visitors, and other users of the Services. We created this Privacy Policy (this “Policy”) to give you confidence as you visit and use the Services, and to demonstrate our commitment to fair information practices and the protection of privacy. This Policy is only applicable to the Services and not to any other websites that you may be able to access in connection with the Services, each of which may have data collection and use practices and policies that differ materially from this Policy.
Notice Concerning Children
We offer our Services to a business audience, and do not direct any of our content at children 13 years of age or under. We understand and are committed to respecting the sensitive nature of children’s privacy online. If we learn or have reason to suspect that a user is age 13 or under, we will promptly delete any personal information in that user’s account.
INFORMATION COLLECTION PRACTICES
What Personal Information Do We Collect?
In order for you to access certain Services, we require you to provide us with certain information that personally identifies you (“Personal Information”). Personal Information collected may, without limitation, include the following: your name, business name, address, business address, email address, credit card information, e-check information, third party user names and passwords, safety information about your company’s practices and procedures, location data, if enabled (including without limitation, GPS coordinates traveled, cellular tower identifications, Wi-Fi access points, altitude and any other information provided by your mobile device or computer), and any other content that you may submit to us, if any. You may use some portions of the Service without creating an account. If you choose to use the Service as an unregistered guest, we will not collect any Personal Information from you.
What Additional Information Do We Collect?
Automatic Collection. Our servers automatically recognize visitors’ IP addresses (the number assigned to computers on the Internet), Internet service provider, domain servers, browser type, computer platform, referring website, date, time and duration of access, and links clicked through. No Personal Information about you is revealed in this process. The Services may also gather anonymous “traffic data” that does not personally identify you, but that may be helpful for marketing purposes or for improving the Services.
Cookies. From time to time, we may use the standard “cookies” feature of major browser applications that allows us to store a small piece of data on your computer that tracks information about your visit to our Services. Cookies help us customize your content experience (for example to store your password so you do not have to re-enter it each time you use the Services) and to learn which areas of our Services are useful and which areas need improvement. Our business partners may use cookies on our Services. We have no access to or control over these cookies once our business partners have been given permission to set cookies. This Policy covers the use of cookies by us only and does not cover the use of cookies by any business partners. You can choose whether to accept cookies by changing the settings on your browser. However, if you choose to disable this function, your experience at our Services may be diminished and some features may not work as they were intended.
Mobile Device Identifying Information. When you access the Services via a mobile device, we may collect the unique identifying information of your mobile device (“Mobile Device ID”). We may use your Mobile Device ID to provide a tailored experience for you. In addition, the Mobile Device ID information may be collected in order to determine the aggregate number of unique devices using our service or parts of our service, to track total usage, analyze data, and communicate with you more effectively. We may combine your Mobile Device ID with information from third parties to provide you with a better experience and to improve the quality of our service. We do not share any personally identifiable information with third parties in association with your Mobile Device ID.
Geographic Location. When you access the Services via a mobile device, we may also collect the geographic location of your mobile device (including without limitation, GPS coordinates traveled, cellular tower identifications, Wi-Fi access points, altitude and any other information provided by your mobile device or computer) if your mobile device is set to transmit such information. We may use your geographic location to provide a tailored experience for you. In addition, the geographic location information may be used to analyze our Services traffic. We may combine your geographic location with information from third parties to provide you with a better experience and to improve the quality of our Services. We do not share any personally identifiable information with third parties in association with your geographic location.

- Sale of Assets. In order to accommodate changes in our business, we may sell or buy portions of our company or other companies or assets, including the information collected through the Services. If we sell substantially all of our assets, or the assets of one of our business lines are acquired, customer information will be one of the assets transferred to the acquirer and that entity and its affiliates may use your Personal Information under the terms of their own privacy policies which may differ from this Privacy Policy.
User Accounts. When you register to create an account, we ask you to provide certain Personal Information.
