Privacy and Data Security

At McDougal, your right to privacy and data security is a primary concern. That's why, when you visit Mcdougal.com or DataTrakr.com, we want to help you maintain control over your personal data. We use these guidelines for protecting the information you provide us during a visit to our Internet sites (www.mcdougal.com or DataTrakR.com). These guidelines are applicable only to our domestic Web sites. Information submitted solely in a business capacity is not covered by these guidelines.

McDougal is committed to data security with respect to information collected on our sites. We offer the industry standard security measures available through your browser called SSL encryption. However, if at any time you need to give us personal information, but do not want to do so online, you may contact a McDougal Representative over the telephone or, in some cases, in person.

We only ask for specific types of personal information. In a few areas on our Web site, we ask you to provide information that enables us to enhance your site visit, to assist you with support issues or to follow up with you after your visit. It is completely optional for you to participate. For example, we request information from you when you: Register on Mcdougal.com or DataTrakR.com, submit an application, provide feedback in an online survey, participate in a promotional offer, request e-mail notification of your application’s status, subscribe to a newsletter or a mailing list, request assistance from our support staff, or make a support request. In each of the instances above, we may ask for your name, e-mail address, phone number, address, type of business, as well as other similar personal information that is needed to register or subscribe you to services or offers. In the case of newsletters or mailing lists, you will be able to "unsubscribe" to these mailings at any time.

McDougal only uses your personal information for specific purposes. The information you provide will be kept confidential. It will be used to support your customer relationship with McDougal.

Our employees, outside agents, and third-party contractors who have access to your personal information are required to keep the information confidential and not use it for any purpose other than carrying out the services they are performing for us. McDougal may enhance or merge your information collected at its site with data from third parties for purposes of marketing products or services to you. In addition, McDougal may be required to disclose personal information in connection with law enforcement, fraud prevention, regulation, and other legal action or if McDougal reasonably believes it is necessary to do so to protect McDougal, our customers, or the public.

You can opt-out of receiving further marketing from McDougal. We may send you information about our various products and services, or other products and services we feel may interest you. Only McDougal (or our outside agents working under confidentiality agreements) will send you these direct mailings.

This Privacy Policy does not cover the information practices of third-party web sites linked to mcdougal.com. McDougal is not responsible for the privacy practices of the Web sites that it does not operate.

You are solely responsible for maintaining the secrecy of your passwords or any account information – be careful and responsible while online. If you post personal information online that is accessible to the public, you may receive unsolicited messages from other parties in return. In fact, you probably will. While we strive to protect your personal information, McDougal cannot ensure or warrant the security of any information you transmit to us, and you do so at your own risk.

Other Web sites. Some parts of the Web site may be enhanced using downloadable applications such as Macromedia's Shockwave/Flash, RealNetwork's Media-Player, Windows Media Player, or other similar applications, and using the video hosting services of third party sites. These sites operate under their own privacy and security policies, and we encourage you to research the way they may collect and use information by visiting their company sites.

Children's Privacy (Age 12 and Under). McDougal does not seek to collect personal information about children. If we become aware that a child is submitting personal information to us through any part of our Web site, we delete that information as soon as we discover it. We do not use it for any purpose and do not disclose it to third parties. As a result, we typically retain no information about children that could be reviewed or deleted. If a parent asks to review or delete information about their child before we discover and deleted the information, then we will honor that request.
