Privacy Policy

Global Assessment Technologies, LLC (“GAT”) is committed to protecting the privacy of its customers, website visitors, and paid content users. We have established this Privacy Policy (“Privacy Policy”) to demonstrate our commitment to fair information practices and to the protection of your privacy rights. This Privacy Policy governs GAT’s website, www.gat.systems, and any of its portal content services (collectively, the “Sites”). If you use our Sites in any way, such as browsing or interacting, you agree to the terms of our current Privacy Policy as posted here. If you do not agree with this Privacy Policy, you should not use our Sites. We may update or modify this Privacy Policy from time to time at our sole discretion, and we will note the date of last update at the top of this page.

1. Types of Information Collected

GAT’s Collection of Information

We may collect certain types of information from our visitors, such as:

• Contact Information such as name, address, city, state, ZIP code, email address, and telephone number.
• Account Information such as User ID and password.
• Product Preferences
• Content You Provide Voluntarily, such as reviews, comments, or any information you provide to us about your use of our products and services.
• Financial and Payment Information such as payment card number, expiration date, delivery address, and billing address.
• Usage Information such as the content and web pages you access.
• If you choose to participate in activities on or connected with our Sites such as registrations, product reviews, contests, sweepstakes, questionnaires, surveys, service contacts, product purchases, or social media platforms, GAT will collect the personal information that you provide. We may enhance or merge non-personally identifiable and/or personally identifiable information that you provide to us directly with information from other sources, including offline resources and affiliated and unaffiliated third parties, for the purposes described below. All personally and non-personally identifiable information will be used solely for the purposes listed in this policy.

Tracking Technology

We may use certain technologies to collect other information from our visitors, including, but not limited to:

• Traffic Data When you visit our Sites, we automatically track and collect the following categories of information: (1) your Internet protocol and domain server address; (2) the date and time of your visit to the Sites; (3) the type of web browser and operating system you used to access the Sites; (4) the web pages that you accessed at the Sites; (5) other information not identified or tracked to you personally such as searching (collectively “Traffic Data”). Traffic Data is anonymous information that does not identify or track you personally. We use Traffic Data to evaluate and improve the content of the Sites and to make the Sites more useful to visitors. We also use it to diagnose problems with our server, to keep our server running smoothly, and to monitor the number of visitors to the Sites and the type of technology they use.
• Cookies A “cookie” is a small data file placed on your hard drive by an Internet website server. Our e-commerce provider may use cookies in connection with e-commerce transactions to process your purchases. With the exception of your GAT account number, these “temporary cookies” contain no information that could personally identify you, and they exist only for the session in which you visit the Sites and are not stored. You can refuse to accept the cookie or delete it from your computer using any widely available method, but if you do, you may be unable to purchase products and services from GAT online or otherwise access some of the interactive features of the Sites.
• Tracking Code: We may also track the pages you view on our Sites, links to and from our Sites that you click, emails that we send, or other online behavior on our Sites through methods such as tracking codes, customer relationship management and messaging software, web beacons, or pixels. These tools may be used to measure customer usage, prioritize the development of product features, enable customization or personalization, measure the popularity of our products by identifying which content is accessed most often, and the effectiveness of our email campaigns by identifying the individuals who open or act upon an email message, when an email message is opened, how many times an email message is forwarded, the type of software, device, operating system and browser used to access our website and content delivered through our website.
• Mobile Devices If you access our Sites from a mobile device, we may collect data about the operating system on your device.

At this time, we do not honor “do not track” signals from website browsers. However, you may refuse or delete cookies. If you refuse or delete cookies, some of the functionality of our Sites may be impaired. If you turn off cookies, Web beacon and other technologies will still detect visits to our Sites, but the information they generate cannot be associated with other cookie information and are disregarded. Please refer to your browser Help instructions to learn more about how to manage cookies and the use of similar technologies.

We store your personal and non-personal information in GAT databases (including local storage) located in the United States and Canada.

4. Security of Information

GAT has security measures in place to protect information under our control from unauthorized access, use, disclosure, or alteration. These security measures include using a firewall to prevent unauthorized access to our systems and maintaining registration information on a server inaccessible to the public. Although GAT exercises reasonable care in providing secure transmission of information between your computer and our servers, GAT cannot ensure or warrant the security of any information transmitted to us over the Internet and accepts no liability for any unintentional disclosure.

5. Collection of Information from Children

GAT does not intentionally collect personal information from children under 13 years of age, and children under age 13 should not submit any personal information to us. If we become aware that a child has provided personal information without parental consent, or if a parent or guardian contacts us through the contact information below, we will use reasonable efforts to delete the child’s information from our databases.

6. User Ability to Access, Update, and Correct Personal Information

We store the personal information we collect in a customer profile in industry-standard cloud storage. You can help us keep your profile accurate by notifying us whenever your address, telephone number, or email address changes. At any time, you may review and update your personal information by logging into your individual or company account using your registered email address and password and accessing the account settings.
