We reserve the right to disclose your personally identifiable information as required by law and when we believe that disclosure is necessary to protect our rights and/or to comply with a judicial proceeding, court order, or legal process served on our Web site.
Log Files
As is true of most Web sites, we gather certain information automatically and store it in log files. This information includes internet protocol (IP) addresses, browser type, internet service provider (ISP), referring/exit pages, operating system, date/time stamp, and clickstream data. We use this information, which does not identify individual users, to analyze trends, to administer the site, to track users’ movements around the site and to gather demographic information about our user base as a whole.
We use a third-party tracking service that tracks non-personally identifiable information about visitors to our site in the aggregate to track such information as originating server and volume of hits to our site. On occasion, a server address may, through its name, identify the commercial establishment from which the visit originated.
Cookies
A cookie is a small text file that is stored on a user’s computer for record-keeping purposes. We use cookies on this site for the purpose of redirecting you to your purchase order page in the event that your connection with that page is disrupted during a session. We use persistent cookies but do not store personal or security information in the cookie. A persistent cookie remains on your hard drive for an extended period of time. You can remove persistent cookies by following directions provided in your Internet browser’s “help” file.

This Web site may contain links to other sites that are not owned or controlled by IPC. Please be aware that IPC is not responsible for the privacy practices of such other sites.

Security
The security of your personal information is important to us.

We follow generally accepted industry standards to protect the personal information submitted to us, both during transmission and once we receive it. No method of transmission over the Internet, or method of electronic storage, is 100% secure, however. Therefore, while we strive to use commercially acceptable means to protect your personal information, we cannot guarantee its absolute security. If you have any questions about security on our Web site, you can send email to us at mkt@ipcol.com.
Business Transitions
In the event IPC goes through a business transition, such as a merger, acquisition by another company, or sale of all or a portion of its assets, your personally identifiable information will likely be among the assets transferred.
