When you engage in certain activities on this site, such as ordering products, downloading software or documentation,
or entering contests, TalkSwitch may ask you to provide certain information about yourself by
filling out and submitting an online form. It is completely optional for you to engage in these activities. If you

When you submit personal information to TalkSwitch, you understand and agree that TalkSwitch and its subsidiaries, affiliates and trusted vendors may transfer, store, and process your customer profile in any of the countries in which TalkSwitch and its affiliates maintain offices, including without limitation, Canada and the United States.
TalkSwitch collects this information in order to record and support your participation in the activities you select. If you order a product, for example, the information is used to register your license and rights, if any, to technical support, or to provide upgrade discounts or other benefits that may be made available to registered users. If you enter a contest, information is collected to qualify the entry and contact you regarding the contest or prize awards. TalkSwitch also uses information that you provide as part of our effort to keep you informed about product upgrades, special offers, and other TalkSwitch products and services.
TalkSwitch recognizes and appreciates the importance of responsible use of this information. If you do not want
the information you provide to TalkSwitch to be used to inform you of other products and special offers from
TalkSwitch, and you indicate this preference when you provide the information, TalkSwitch will
honor your preference. In addition, TalkSwitch may selectively provide certain information to other companies
or organizations that have products or services we think may interest you. If you do not want the information
you provide to TalkSwitch to be shared with other companies, and you indicate this preference when you provide
the information, TalkSwitch will honor your preference.

All of our Online Ordering is completely secure.
All of your personal information is

Secure connections are identified in two ways ...
- The URL in the address bar begins with "https://". Notice the 's' which means 'secure' for the Secure Socket Layer.
- Your browser will also display a 'lock' for IE browsers or a 'key' on Netscape browsers.
