Examples of security measures include physical access controls, HTTPS, restricted access to data, monitoring for threats and vulnerabilities, etc. 

Please keep in mind, however, that no data transmitted over the Internet is 100% secure and any information disclosed online can potentially be collected and used by persons other than the intended recipient.  Accordingly, we cannot guarantee or warrant the security of any information you transmit using the Site. 

Retention of Personal Information 

We keep your Personal Information for as long as needed to fulfill the particular purpose for which it was collected.

• Restriction.  In certain cases, you may request that we restrict the processing of your Personal Information (such as when we are confirming the accuracy of your Personal Information, if the processing is illegal, if we no longer need your Personal Information but you need it to determine, enforce or defend legal claims, or if we are assessing whether we may lawfully process your Personal Information pursuant to our legitimate interests). 
• Objection.  You have the right to object to the processing of your Personal Information that is based on our legitimate interest. In certain circumstances, you also have the right to withdraw your consent for processing if we are processing your Personal Information pursuant to your consent.

Do Not Track

Certain web browsers and other devices you may use to access the Sites may permit you to submit your preference that you do not wish to be “tracked” online. We do not currently commit to responding to “do not track” requests, in part, because no common industry standard for “do not track” has been adopted by industry groups, technology companies, or regulators. We will make efforts to monitor developments around Do Not Track browser technology and the implementation of a standard.

Third-Party Links

The Sites may contain links to websites not affiliated with Acutech.  Your use of an external website or any informational content found on an external website is subject to and governed by the privacy policies, terms, and conditions of that website.  Further, we are not responsible for the privacy practices of any external websites.

Changes to the Privacy Policy 

We may modify or update this Privacy Policy from time to time. If we make any revisions that materially change the ways in which we process your Personal Information, we will notify you of these changes before applying them to that Personal Information.

Contact Acutech

If you have questions or concerns regarding the way in which we use your personal information, please contact us at [email protected]

We are committed to working with you to obtain a fair resolution of any complaint or concern about privacy.
