This Online Privacy Statement ("Statement") informs you of the information
practices for ATG Web Sites, including the type of personal information we
collect from your use of ATG Web Sites, how the information is used, and with
whom the information is shared.
By using our Site, you agree that
your use is subject to the terms of this Statement and you consent to the collection,
use and storage of your information by ATG in accordance with this Statement and as
may be more specifically explained on each Site. ATG may change this Statement at any
time and will display the changes here on this Site. Because your use of this Site
after changes have been posted indicates your agreement with those changes, we
encourage you to visit this Statement on a regular basis. If you are not
comfortable with using this Site in accordance with this Statement, please exit
the Site immediately.
You may have accessed this Site as a result of a
link from another ATG Site. This Statement applies to all ATG Sites linked to
this Site except where more specific information is provided on the linked Site
with respect to the collection, use and storage of personal
information.

Collection and Use of Information
You may visit
this Site and certain other ATG Sites without registering or disclosing
personally identifiable information, although some areas of this Site or other
Sites may require a password. ATG may ask you to provide personal information,
such as when you are asked to complete an online form or a request with regard
to a product or service from ATG. This information may include name, physical
address, phone number, email address and other personal information that you
choose to provide. ATG uses this information for purposes of communications with
you, to respond to requests you may have, and for marketing purposes. If you
wish to update information you provided through this Site in connection with
regular mailings or you wish to have your name removed from a mailing list, you
may do so by sending an email or by submitting an updated form through the same
communication channel you initially submitted the information.
Certain ATG Sites allow
for the electronic submission of resumes if you are interested in employment opportunities
with ATG. Resumes received by ATG are used only for employment purposes or such
other purpose you may request. If you wish to delete
or update employment-related information you submitted through this Site, you may do so by contacting
ATG Human Resources.
When you visit this Site, we may automatically
collect certain information relating to you, such as your Internet address,
Internet service provider, type of operating system, the time and date you
accessed the Site, and the Internet address from which you arrived at our Site.
Also, when you visit our Site we may collect information through the use of a
"cookie". A cookie is a small file that a web site can send to your browser and
then is stored on your computer. This type of technology is designed to tell us
when you reenter our Site, where you visit within our Site, and the type of
browser you use. You are not required to accept any cookie we might use,
although some areas of a Site may not be operational without the use of cookies.
You can disable cookies on your computer by changing the settings in your
browser. The information collected helps us identify data relating to usage and
trends, address any problems with Site administration, and to further improve
this Site.

Sharing of Information with Third Parties
ATG
will not sell or give your personal information to third parties for their use
for purposes unrelated to ATG without your permission.
ATG may share
personal information about you with our subsidiaries and affiliated companies.
We also may share personal information with our suppliers, contractors and
agents who perform functions on our behalf, or in connection with products and
services offered by ATG or a request made by you. ATG may disclose your personal
information as we consider necessary to comply with the law or governmental
authorities, in connection with litigation, dispute resolution, or
administration of this Statement or a possible violation of this Site's Terms of
Use or the rights of ATG or a third party. In addition, ATG may disclose or
receive personal information in connection with a possible sale, purchase,
merger or other reorganization of a business.

Retention
ATG will retain personal information
collected by a Site for as long as it is needed to fulfill the purpose for which
the information was provided, to maintain a record of communications with you,
or as required by applicable law.
|
Security
To protect the personal information we
receive ATG uses certain security measures designed to guard against the loss,
misuse and alteration of that information. It should be recognized, however,
that we cannot guarantee that transmission of data over the Internet will be
absolutely secure. Due to the open nature of the Internet the information you
provide may be in environments that do not have adequate security measures and
may be accessed and used by persons other than those intended. As a result,
while protection of your personal information is important to us, ATG is not
able to ensure the security of information you transmit to us and you assume the
risk of any third party obtaining that information. Upon receipt of your
information ATG will strive to ensure its security on our systems.

other sites are made available as a convenience to you and ATG is not
responsible for the privacy policies and information collection practices of
those sites.

ATG Client Web Sites
In the course of providing
services to its clients, ATG may operate web sites for certain clients that

provide your personal information, ATG will take steps to handle it in a secure
manner in accordance with this Statement and all applicable laws.
