At Southwest Transport Logistics we respect and protect the privacy of our clients and those who use our website. The following Privacy Statement provides details about how your personal information is collected and used. This privacy statement applies to the Doctors Profit website, products and services that are located in, but not limited to the swtransportlogistics.com domain.
Information Collection and Use
Southwest Transport Logistics is the sole owner of information collected on
this
site. We will not sell, share, or rent this information to others in
ways different from what is disclosed in this statement. Southwest Transport Logistics collects information from our users at several different
points
on our website.
Our website offers several opportunities for visitors to register for promotional and informational mailings, online webinars and resources, and for assistance in evaluating our services. These registration forms enable users to opt-in to Southwest Transport Logistics mailing lists and require users to give contact information (such as name and email address). We use this contact information to send information about our company and our products and services. Notice is given at the point of collection to enable users to choose whether or not they consent to the usage terms. Those who have signed up and subsequently wish to withdraw their participation may opt-out of receiving future mailings at any time (see the choice/opt-out section below).
We also keep track of activity on our website via log files stored on our web servers. We collect information such as IP address, browser type and version, and pages you view. We also keep track of how you got to our site and any links you click on to leave our site. We use our logs of your website activity to assist us in offering you a personalized Web experience, assist you with technical support, diagnose problems with our server, administer our website and to tailor our product and service offerings to you.
Security and Privacy
We take every precaution to protect the confidentiality and security of
your personal information by using industry-recognized security
safeguards such as firewalls, coupled with carefully developed security
procedures to protect your information from loss, misuse or
unauthorized alteration. When we collect sensitive account information
such as credit card numbers, we protect its transmission through the
use of encryption such as the Secure Socket Layer (SSL) protocol.
Southwest Transport Logistics takes care to reinforce the importance of our website visitors' security and privacy among our employees. Our employees are trained and required to safeguard your information and, using physical, electronic and procedural safeguards, we restrict access to personal information to those employees and agents for business purposes only. Additionally, we use internal and external resources to review the adequacy of our security procedures.
We will never share, sell, or rent your personal information with third parties for their promotional use. Occasionally, we enter into contracts with third parties so that they can assist us in servicing you (for example, providing website services). The contracts prohibit them from using any of your personal information for their own purposes, and they are required to maintain the confidentiality of the information we provide to them. We may also disclose information to partners who introduced you to Southwest Transport Logistics services in order to ensure they are properly compensated for their efforts. Lastly, we may disclose or report personal information in limited circumstances where we believe in good faith that disclosure is required under the law. For example, we may be required to disclose personal information to cooperate with regulators or law enforcement authorities, to comply with a legal process such as court order, subpoena, search warrant, or law enforcement request.
Web Beacons
We use a variety of technologies on our site. Among these on some of our web pages, emails, and other online content may contain
electronic images known as web beacons, also known as single-pixel
GIFs, which are invisible graphical images. These web beacons allow us
to count users who have visited our web pages, seen our ads, or opened
our email. Web beacons collect only limited information, such as a time and date of a page being viewed, and a
description of the page on which the Web Beacon resides (the URL).
When we send you emails, we may include a web beacon to allow us to determine the number of people who open our emails. When you click on a link in an email, we record this individual response to allow us to customize our offerings to you.
Web Beacons cannot be declined when delivered via a regular web page. However, Web Beacons can be refused when delivered via email. If you do not wish to receive Web Beacons via email, you will need to disable HTML images or refuse HTML (select Text only) emails via your email software.
Online Advertising
We also use pixels, or transparent GIF files, to help manage online
advertising. These GIF files are provided by our ad management
partners; they enable our partners to recognize a unique cookie on your
Web browser, which in turn enables us to learn which advertisements
bring users to our website. With web beacons, the
information that we collect and share is anonymous and not personally
identifiable. It does not contain your name, address, telephone number,
or email address.
Choice/Opt-out
Southwest Transport Logistics' Anti-Spam policy tolerates only permission-based
email. In addition, users always have the opportunity to opt-out or
change preferences via a link in the footer of all non-transactional
email messages. These options are made available when you sign-up for
our email lists and in email messages delivered from our company.
Alternatively, you may email us at info@swtransportlogistics.com. If you believe that you have received an unsolicited commercial email
from Southwest Transport Logistics on behalf of any of our clients you may report
it to us at info@swtransportlogistics.com.
Links
Our site provides links to third-party websites, such as those
of our business partners and online advertising partners. While on
these sites, Southwest Transport Logistics or its partners may collect information
about you. Because Southwest Transport Logistics does not control the information
policies or practices of these third parties, you should review their
privacy policies to learn more about how they collect and use
personally identifiable information.
Notification of Changes
This policy is in effect as of July 2009. If we decide to change our
privacy policy, we will post those changes on the Southwest Transport Logistics Website so our users are always aware of what information we collect,
how we use it, and under what circumstances, if any, we disclose it.
