Photron values your privacy and the privacy of our other customers and visitors of our web site at [www.Photron.com] (or successor URLs) (collectively, the “Site”). Visitors to the Site are referred to individually as “User” and collectively as “Users”.

 This Privacy Policy describes what information we gather from you, how we use that information, and what we do to protect it. By using the Site, you expressly consent to the information handling practices described in this policy.

 This Privacy Policy is incorporated into and is subject to Photron’s Terms of Use. Your use of the Site and any personal information you provide on the Site are subject to the terms of this Privacy Policy and Photron’s Terms of Use.

The Information Photron Collects:

 • User-provided Information: You may provide to Photron what is generally called “personally identifiable” information (such as your name, email address, postal mailing address, home/mobile telephone number, fax number, resume or curriculum vitae) when using the Site. For example, if you use the Site to contact Photron, we will ask for your email address so that we can respond to you.

 • “Cookies” Information: When you visit the Site, we may send one or more cookies – small text files containing a string of alphanumeric characters – to your computer. Photron may use both session cookies and persistent cookies. A session cookie disappears after you close your browser. A persistent cookie remains after you close your browser and may be used by your browser on subsequent visits to the Site. Persistent cookies can be removed. Please review your web browser “Help” file to learn the proper way to modify your cookie settings. Please note that disabling cookies may prevent you from accessing some of the functionality and site offerings available via the Site.

 • “Automatically Collected” Information: When you visit the Site, we may automatically record certain information from your web browser by using different types of technology, including “clear gifs” or “web beacons.” This “automatically collected” information may include Internet Protocol address, web browser type, the web pages or sites that you visit just before or just after the Site, the pages you view on the Site, and the dates and times that you visit the Site.

 The Way Photron Uses Information:

 • Photron uses the information you provide or that we collect to operate, maintain, enhance, and provide all of the features and information found on the Site. We will use your email address, without further consent, for administrative purposes, for customer service purposes, to address intellectual property infringement, rights of privacy, or defamation issues.

 • Photron uses all of the information that we collect to understand and analyze the usage trends and preferences of our Users, to improve the way the Site works and looks, and to create new features and functionality.

 • Photron may use “automatically collected” information to remember your information so that you will not have to re-enter it during your visit or the next time you visit the Site; and (b) monitor aggregate site usage metrics such as total number of visitors and pages viewed.

 • Photron will not use your email address or other personally identifiable information to send promotional messages unless you have opted in or otherwise requested that Photron contact you about products and services or other information.

When Photron Discloses Information:

 • Photron does not share your personally identifiable information with other organizations for their marketing or promotional uses without your express consent.

 • Photron discloses automatically collected and other aggregate non-personally-identifiable information with interested third parties to assist such parties in understanding the usage, viewing, and demographic patterns for certain programs, content, services, advertisements, promotions, and/or functionality on the Site.

 • Photron works with some authorized service providers to provide website hosting and maintenance as well as other services for us. Photron requires these services providers to safeguard personally identifiable information you provide to us. To the extent it is necessary for these service providers to complete their contractual obligations to Photron these third parties may have access to or process your personally identifiable information. Photron generally limits their use of your personally identifiable information to the purpose for which it was shared.

 • Photron may also disclose User information if required to do so by law or in the good-faith belief that such action is necessary to comply with state and federal laws or respond to a court order, judicial or other government subpoena, or warrant. In some cases, we may make such disclosures without first providing notice to Users.

 • Photron also reserves the right to disclose User information that we believe, in good faith, is appropriate or necessary to take precautions against liability; protect Photron from fraudulent, abusive, or unlawful uses; to investigate and defend ourselves against any third-party claims or allegations; to assist government enforcement agencies; to protect the security or integrity of the Site; or to protect the rights, property, or personal safety of Photron, our Users, or others.

Your Choices:

You may, of course, decline to share your personally-identifiable information with Photron, in which case Photron will not be able to provide to you some of the features and functionality found on the Site. Our Commitment to Children’s Privacy: Protecting the privacy of young children is especially important. For that reason, Photron does not knowingly collect or maintain personally identifiable information on Site from persons under 13 years-of-age, and no part of Site is directed to persons under 13.

 IF YOU ARE UNDER 13 YEARS OF AGE, THEN PLEASE DO NOT USE OR ACCESS THE SITE AT ANY TIME OR IN ANYMANNER.

In the Event of Merger or Sale: In the event that Photron is acquired by or merged with a third-party entity, we reserve the right, in any of these circumstances, to transfer or assign the information that we have collected from Users as part of such merger, acquisition, sale, or other change of control.
