Privacy Statement

Objectdomain.com is owned and operated by Object Domain Systems Inc. For the purpose of communicating with our users, we collect personal and non-personal information. Object Domain Systems is committed to protecting your privacy. This privacy statement details the data collection practices used on this website.

We do not use techniques that collect personal information without your knowledge. We will not transfer your personal information to a third party for any reason without your consent. Any personally identifiable data about our customers or website visitors is stored securely.

ODS WebPass

As a convenience to our users, we have developed ODS WebPass, a single point of entry and maintenance for all personal, contact, and communication preference information.

ODS WebPass allows the user to complete a personal profile once then recall and use that profile when accessing various resources in the future. The password-protected information is kept securely in a database and can be modified by the user at any point. Once created, ODS WebPass allows access to various resources such as product evaluations, white-papers, and other downloadable files. In some cases, additional information that is relevant to target resource may be requested from the user.

Order Forms

Internet purchasing for Object Domain Systems' products is normally handled by Digital River, a well-known and highly-trusted e-commerce company. Please see Digital River's Privacy Statement for details regarding their privacy policy.

Direct purchase requests, including those initiated by a purchase order, are handled by Object Domain Systems and may utilize order forms that collect contact information.

The contact information collected when ordering is used to generate registration keys, send purchase confirmation, and, when necessary, contact the customer.

Additional Forms

Other forms on this website are used to collect non-personal information. Examples of such forms include support request, defect request, feature request, sales request, and surveys. While these forms do not collect personal information, the data may be linked to the user's ODS WebPass profile to provide us complete information about the request without requiring the user to re-enter contact data.
