The privacy policy outlined below applies to all current and former Chip Nexus website visitors, registered users, and members of the Test Capacity Advisory Board (TCAB), sponsored by Chip Nexus.

INFORMATION COLLECTION
Chip Nexus collects personal information (e.g. name, title, company, email address, etc.) during user and TCAB member registration. We will also collect a minimal set of personal information from unregistered visitors requesting certain public services or information.

When using our website as a registered user, we will collect business information necessary to deliver the specific service(s) you are using. For TCAB members, we will collect your responses to survey questions.

Our site also utilizes a standard web technology called cookies to collect information (e.g. date, time, pages viewed, etc.) related to how our website is used.

INFORMATION USAGE
Chip Nexus will not sell, rent, trade, or lease your information to others unless we have requested and have received your permission, or are required to disclose it by law.

The company name of each registered user and TCAB member will be published on selected website pages and promotional materials to illustrate the interest and value of the broad nexus of executives comprising the membership. TCAB members have the opportunity to specify whether or not their name and title are also published. Information entered during the login process is used to restrict access to only the pages, services, and data for which the user logging in is authorized. Any information provided, viewed, or generated while logged into this secure environment remains restricted to being accessed by only the authorized owner(s) unless otherwise tagged with owner-specified sharing attributes.

Survey information provided by TCAB members is similarly kept confidential to each member, being published only to registered TCAB members on an aggregate basis with specific respondent associations removed.

We will sometimes use your contact information to send you certain mandatory service communications such as registration authentication, technical service information, product updates, and security announcements. Users will have the ability through their profile and/or services settings to control all non-critical communications.

Finally, "cookies" and other similar Web tools are used to enhance your experience at our website. If you do not wish to transmit "cookie" information, you may turn off the cookie function in your web browser.

DATA PROTECTION
Chip Nexus is committed to ensuring the security of your information. We use industry-standard processes such as encryption to ensure that sensitive data are protected while transmitted to/from the Chip Nexus website. The web server architecture will be designed to protect client data in a database that will use an SQL server security model and reside behind a firewall, eliminating direct access by the outside world. There are also appropriate security measures in place in our physical facilities to prevent loss or unauthorized use of sensitive information.

EXTERNAL LINKS
Websites operated by our business partners or other third parties may provide links to, or may be accessed from, the Chip Nexus website. We do not make any representations or warranties about any such websites. They are independent from us and we have no control over, or responsibility for, their information or activities.

Information may be stored and processed in the United States or any other country in which Chip Nexus or its affiliates, subsidiaries or agents maintain facilities, and by using the Chip Nexus website or services, you consent to any such transfer of information outside of your country.
