Privacy Policy

How we Secure Your Data

Your security is of the upmost importance to Gartner Tech LLC. To provide credit card security and keep your personal information safe, we use Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) technology. That is the most widely used data encryption coding system for secure e-commerce transactions. All of your information is encrypted (scrambled) prior to being sent over the Internet to our system. Furthermore, to protect your information once we receive it, we place the data on systems behind secure firewalls using Securi, which are designed to keep information safe and inaccessible to other Internet users. If your browser doesn’t accept the SSL technology, transactions may not be permitted, and you’ll need to call to place your orders.

For return visits to our site, SSL technology allows the option to store your credit card information in our system securely. Doing business with Gartner Tech is safe, easy and secure.

To confirm that your connection is secure, look for a locked padlock icon or solid key icon in your browser window. The letters “https” (rather than “http”) located in the URL address window at the top of your browser also indicate that you are using a secure browser.

How we gather your data

Comments and emails

When visitors leave comments or send messages via Contact Us on the site we collect the data shown in the comments form, and also the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent string to help spam detection.

An anonymized string created from your email address (also called a hash) may be provided to the Gravatar service to see if you are using it. The Gravatar service privacy policy is available here: https://automattic.com/privacy/. After approval of your comment, your profile picture is visible to the public in the context of your comment.

Who we share your data with

We do not sell, rent, trade, license, or otherwise disclose your personal or financial information to anyone, except in the following specific situation:

Third-party service providers: Like most online resellers and distributors, we sometimes use third-party service providers to perform specific functions on our behalf. Any information disclosed to them is solely to help in their provision of service. For example, we provide your name, shipping address, email and phone number to partners such as USPS and UPS in order to guarantee delivery of your orders, and we may use relevant customer information in order to monitor the quality of the third party’s service.Similarly, we must provide your credit card number to financial services organizations such as credit card processors and issuers in order to process payments. We protect all submissions of your credit card number for authorization with state-of-the-art data encryption (SSL technology).

Non-personally identifiable information: We may share information that does not identify you or any user, such as the number of daily visitors to a particular page, or the size of an order placed on a certain date, with third parties such as advertising partners.

What rights you have over your data

If you have an account on this site, or have left comments, you can request to receive an exported file of the personal data we hold about you, including any data you have provided to us. You can also request that we erase any personal data we hold about you. This does not include any data we are obliged to keep for administrative, legal, or security purposes.
