This Privacy Policy describes how SpeedRFP ("we," "us," or "our") treats the information the user ("you," "your," or "visitor") chooses to provide through this site. Please take a few moments to read this Privacy Policy carefully. Should you have any questions regarding our privacy practices, please send an e-mail to info@speedrfp.com.
Collecting Information
For each visitor to our website, our server automatically recognizes your domain name and e-mail address (where possible).
We collect the domain name and e-mail address (where possible) of visitors to our website, the e-mail addresses of those who post messages to our community and forums, the e-mail addresses of those who communicate with us via e-mail, the e-mail addresses of those who make postings to our chat areas, aggregate information on what pages consumers access or visit, user-specific information on what pages users access or visit, information volunteered by the user, such as survey information and/or site registrations, name and address.
The information we collect is used to improve the content of our website, used to customize the content and/or layout of our page for each individual visitor, and used by us to contact users for marketing purposes.
We will collect information that identifies you ("Personal Information") only when you voluntarily provide it to us. In some cases, choosing to withhold personal information may limit a user's ability to use all of SpeedRFP's services. When we collect such information, we will make every effort to link to this privacy policy.
Cookies
A cookie is a small data file written to a user's hard drive when a website is accessed. Cookies are used for authenticating, session tracking, and maintaining specific information about users, such as site preferences. A cookie cannot read or access other cookies or any data from a user's hard drive.
We use cookies to store visitors' preferences, record user-specific information on what pages users access or visit, record past activity at a site in order to provide better service when visitors return to our site, customize website content based on visitors' browser type or other information that the visitor sends.
Most browsers are initially setup to accept cookies, but you can reset your browser to refuse all cookies or to indicate when a cookie is being sent. However, some SpeedRFP features and services may not function properly if your cookies are disabled.
Using Information
We will use personal information to fulfill your online requests. We may use this information to notify you of special offers, new products and other services about which you might be interested. If at any time you decide that you do not wish to receive these types of communications, simply follow the unsubscribe features contained in any email from us.
We may use information in aggregate form in various ways; for example, to help us evaluate and modify existing services, and to help us develop additional services that are likely to be of interest to our users. SpeedRFP may do research on our users' demographics, interests, and behavior based on the information provided to us upon registration, during a promotion, from our server log files, and from surveys. We do this to better understand and serve our users.
SpeedRFP may share this aggregated data with advertisers or business partners. Under confidentiality agreements, SpeedRFP may match aggregated user information with third party data. Also, SpeedRFP may disclose aggregated user statistics in order to describe our services to prospective partners, advertisers, and other third parties, and for other lawful purposes.
If SpeedRFP becomes involved in a merger, acquisition, or any form of sale of some or all of its assets, we will provide notice before personal information is transferred and becomes subject to a different privacy policy.
Protecting Information
We take reasonable measures to protect your personal information from unauthorized access through the use of encryption and network firewalls. We also safeguard your personal information from unauthorized access by limiting the number of employees permitted to access such information, and by having in place processes for disciplinary action where appropriate. However, as effective as these measures are, no security system is impenetrable. We cannot guarantee the security of our database, nor can we guarantee that the information you supply will not be intercepted while being transmitted to us over the Internet.
Data Integrity
SpeedRFP processes personal information only for the purposes for which it was collected and in accordance with this Privacy Policy. We review our data collection, storage, and processing practices to ensure that we only collect, store, and process the personal information needed to provide or improve our services. We take reasonable steps to ensure that the personal information we process is accurate, complete, and current, but we depend on our users to update or correct their personal information whenever necessary.

From time to time we may update or modify our Terms and Conditions or Privacy Policy. We will always make such updates available on our website. Changes to our Privacy Policy will apply only to information collected after the date of the change.
Technology on the Internet is developing at a rapid pace, and we need to maintain our flexibility in the online arena. If we need to change our policy in the future, we will post these changes as soon as they go into effect.
