Privacy Notice

ITVerdict knows that you care how information about you is used and shared, and we appreciate your trust that we will do so carefully and sensibly. This notice describes our privacy policy. By visiting ITVerdict.com, you are accepting the practices described in this Privacy Notice.

What Personal Information Does ITVerdict.com Gather?

The information we learn from customers helps us personalize and continually improve your experience at ITVerdict.com. Here are the types of information we gather.

  • Information You Give Us: We receive and store any information you enter on our Web site or give us in any other way. You can choose not to provide certain information, but then you might not be able to take advantage of many of our features. We use the information that you provide for such purposes as responding to your requests, customizing future shopping for you, improving our stores, and communicating with you.
  • Automatic Information: We receive and store certain types of information whenever you interact with us. For example, like many Web sites, we use “cookies,” and we obtain certain types of information when your Web browser accesses ITVerdict.com. A number of companies offer utilities designed to help you visit Web sites anonymously. Although we will not be able to provide you with a personalized experience at ITVerdict.com if we cannot recognize you, we want you to be aware that these tools exist.

What About Cookies?

  • Cookies are alphanumeric identifiers that we transfer to your computer’s hard drive through your Web browser to enable our systems to recognize your browser and to provide features such as personalized product spotlights and storage of items in your Shopping Cart between visits.
  • The Help portion of the toolbar on most browsers will tell you how to prevent your browser from accepting new cookies, how to have the browser notify you when you receive a new cookie, or how to disable cookies altogether. However, cookies allow you to take full advantage of some of ITVerdict.com’s coolest features, and we recommend that you leave them turned on.

Does ITVerdict.com Share the Information It Receives?

Information about our customers is an important part of our business. We share customer information only as described below and with subsidiaries ITVerdict.com controls that either are subject to this Privacy Notice or follow practices at least as protective as those described in this Privacy Notice.

  • Developer-Partners: We sell offerings from other developers at ITVerdict.com. In some cases, we provide information to these developers so they can fulfill and provide support for their products.
  • Agents: We employ other companies and individuals to perform functions on our behalf. Examples include fulfilling orders, delivering packages, sending postal mail and e-mail, removing repetitive information from customer lists, analyzing data, providing marketing assistance, providing search results and links (including paid listings and links), processing credit card payments, and providing customer service. They have access to personal information needed to perform their functions, but may not use it for other purposes.
  • Business Transfers: As we continue to develop our business, we might sell or buy subsidiaries or business units. In such transactions, customer information generally is one of the transferred business assets but remains subject to the promises made in any pre-existing Privacy Notice (unless, of course, the customer consents otherwise). Also, in the unlikely event that ITVerdict, Inc., or substantially all of its assets are acquired, customer information will of course be one of the transferred assets.
  • Protection of ITVerdict and Others: We release account and other personal information when we believe release is appropriate to comply with the law; enforce or apply our Conditions of Use and other agreements; or protect the rights, property, or safety of ITVerdict, our users, or others. This includes exchanging information with other companies and organizations for fraud protection and credit risk reduction. Obviously, however, this does not include selling, renting, sharing, or otherwise disclosing personally identifiable information from customers for commercial purposes in violation of the commitments set forth in this Privacy Notice.
  • IT Vendors’ Personally Identifiable Information:We may collect the following types of personally identifiable information from vendors to enable them to have their company and product information listed on our site: company name and a company contact’s name, e-mail, and telephone number. In addition, we collect certain non-personally identifiable information about the vendor’s company including location of headquarters and number of employees and customers.

The information that we collect from software vendors enables them to offer buyers opportunities to learn about products and services and to facilitate enterprise software transactions.

  • IT Users’ and Purchasers’ Personally Identifiable Information:We do not require software buyers to register in order to do research using Capterra’s website. However, if a buyer chooses to fill out an RFI form, a Contact Vendor form or a Demo request form, we collect personally identifiable information including name, company name, email address, and phone number.

We pass this information on to software vendors when an IT buyer has requested us to do so.

Disclosure/Legal Process

ITVerdict may preserve and has the right to disclose any information about you or your use of our site without your prior permission if we have a good faith belief that such action is necessary to: (a) protect and defend the rights, property or safety of ITVerdict or its employees, affiliates, other users of the site, or the public; or (b) enforce the Terms of Use or Terms and Conditions for the site. We may also disclose information as we deem necessary to satisfy any applicable law, regulation, legal process, court order, subpoena or a law enforcement agency or other governmental request.
Opt-Out

ITVerdict may contact IT vendors to let them know about potential sales leads.  If you prefer not to receive information from this site, just let us know by responding directly to the email or contacting info@itverdict.com.

How Secure Is Information About Me?

  • We work to protect the security of your information during transmission by using Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) software, which encrypts information you input.
  • We reveal only the last five digits of your credit card numbers when confirming an order. Of course, we transmit the entire credit card number to the appropriate credit card company during order processing.
  • It is important for you to protect against unauthorized access to your password and to your computer. Be sure to sign off when finished using a shared computer.

What Choices Do I Have?

  • As discussed above, you can always choose not to provide information, even though it might be needed to make a purchase or to take advantage of such ITVerdict.com features.
  • You can add or update certain information on pages such as those listed in the “Which Information Can I Access?” section above. When you update information, we usually keep a copy of the prior version for our records.
  • If you do not want to receive e-mail or other mail from us, please adjust your Newsletter Preferences. (If you do not want to receive “Conditions of Use” and other legal notices from us, such as this Privacy Notice, those notices will still govern your use of ITVerdict.com, and it is your responsibility to review them for changes.)
  • The Help portion of the toolbar on most browsers will tell you how to prevent your browser from accepting new cookies, how to have the browser notify you when you receive a new cookie, or how to disable cookies altogether. However, you will not be able to use such important features as personalized settings and saving your shopping cart for later use.

Children

ITVerdict.com does not sell products/service for purchase by children. If you are under 18, you may use ITVerdict.com only with the involvement of a parent or guardian.

Conditions of Use, Notices, and Revisions

If you choose to visit ITVerdict.com, your visit and any dispute over privacy is subject to this Notice and our Conditions of Use, including limitations on damages, arbitration of disputes, and application of the law of the state of New Hampshire. If you have any concern about privacy at ITVerdict.com, please submit a thorough description at www.ITVerdict.com/contact-us and we will try to resolve it.

Our business changes constantly, and our Privacy Notice and the Conditions of Use will change also. We may e-mail periodic reminders of our notices and conditions, unless you have instructed us not to, but you should check our Web site frequently to see recent changes. Unless stated otherwise, our current Privacy Notice applies to all information that we have about you and your account. We stand behind the promises we make, however, and will never materially change our policies and practices to make them less protective of customer information collected in the past without the consent of affected customers.
