Critical Path will not disclose your personal information to any third parties without your consent except in the following, very limited circumstances:
Partners and Agents
We share information with trusted agents who provide specific services to us and/or administer information offered at our site, for example, service providers who help us manage, track and respond to customer inquiries, information requests, etc. We may also share information with our authorized resellers and integration partners, who may be better suited to respond directly to meet your specific Critical Path product and services needs. These parties do not use or otherwise disclose any information except as our authorized agents for the purpose of providing the products and services or administering the activities on our behalf. Any company that we share your personally identifiable information with will have executed a confidentiality agreement with us, requiring that they keep all data received from us confidential.
Legal Requirements And Investigations
We will disclose your personal information to a third party if we are required to do so by law or if we, in good faith, believe that such action is necessary to: (1) comply with the law or with legal process; (2) protect and defend our rights and property or prevent fraud; (3) protect against abuse, misuse or unauthorized use of Critical Path's products or services; or (4) protect the personal safety or property of our personnel, users or the public (among other things, this means that if you provide false or deceptive registration information or attempt to pose as someone else, information about you ? including your computer's IP address - may be disclosed to a third party (including the recipient of an email) as part of any type of investigation into your actions.)
IP Addresses
An IP address is a number that is assigned to your computer when you are using your browser on the Internet. The servers that serve our Web site automatically identify your computer by its IP address. We do log IP addresses, but we do not link the IP addresses to individual accounts or to personally identify our customers for any reason, except in instances of abuse, misuse or unauthorized use of our service. If we, in good faith, determine that you have provided a false email address, used our service to menace, threaten, harass, intimidate or otherwise deceptively pose as another person on our service, your actions will be investigated and your IP address may be disclosed to the recipient of any email, their legal counsel or representatives, and law enforcement officials as part of such an investigation.

Our Web site contains links to other Web sites. Please be aware that we are not responsible for the privacy practices of such other Web sites. We encourage our users to be aware when they leave our site and to read the privacy statements of each site they visit that collects personal information.

Security
Critical Path employs industry-standard security procedures and processes to safeguard the confidentiality of our users' personal information. We, or our agents and partners on our behalf, do everything in our reasonable control to protect your information. Where one of our partners or agents has access to or maintains sensitive personal information, we enter into confidentiality agreements in order to ensure the privacy of such user information. Internally, access to all of our users' and registrants' personally identifiable information is restricted to those employees who need access in order to fulfill their job responsibilities. Our employees with such access have password-protected computer terminals so that only they may access such information. Furthermore, Critical Path employees who deal with user information are kept up to date on various security and privacy practice issues as they arise.
Finally, the servers for our site are stored in a physically secured facility off site. Beyond the physical security of your information, we also back up our servers regularly to prevent loss of data. While it is our goal to safeguard our users' and members' personal information, we cannot ensure or warrant the security of any transmission and your information is submitted at your own risk. If you have questions about our security practices please feel free to send an email to info@criticalpath.net.
Notification Of Changes
Critical Path may revise this privacy policy from time to time and reserves the right to do so. If we decide to change our privacy policy, we will notify users by posting a prominent announcement on our website so users are aware of the changes we make. As our policies are subject to change at any time and without notice, we encourage you to check back to this site whenever you might have questions or concerns. If at any point we decide to use personally identifiable information in a manner different from that stated at the time it was collected, we would notify users by way of an email. You will still have the opportunity to elect not to have Critical Path use your information in this different manner. We will not use your information other than in accordance with the privacy policy under which it was collected absent permission to do otherwise.
