ADP.com Web Site Privacy Statement
ADP believes that privacy is important to the success and use of the Internet. This
statement sets forth ADP's Privacy Statement for ADP.com and describes the practices
that ADP will follow with respect to the privacy of users of this site. From time
to time, we may change this Privacy Statement. For example, as we update and improve
our service, new features may require modifications to the Privacy Statement. Accordingly,
please check back periodically.
What is personally identifiable information?
"Personally identifiable information" is information about you, such as
name, address, e-mail address, user ID, credit card number, social security number,
and so on.
How is information collected, used, and disclosed?
We do not collect personal information -- including your e-mail address -- unless
we first ask you for it. On some of our sites, we may request that you voluntarily
supply us with information, including your e-mail address, street address, telephone
number or other information so that we may enhance your site visit or follow up
with you after your visit. Whether you provide any information is entirely up to
you. If you have voluntarily provided information, you consented to the collection
and use of your personally identifiable information as described in this Privacy
Statement. In some circumstances, ADP may share information you voluntarily provide
us with trustworthy business partners. We do not sell or rent personal information
collected through this site to anyone. Also, ADP may provide aggregate statistics
about visitors to our sites, such as volume, traffic patterns, and related site
information to reputable third-party vendors, but these statistics will include
no personally identifiable information. ADP may also disclose information in special
cases when we have a good faith belief that such action is necessary to: (a) conform
to legal requirements or comply with legal process; (b) protect and defend our rights
or property; (c) enforce the Web site Terms and Conditions of Use; or (d) act to
protect the interests of our users or others.
What are cookies and how are they used?
Some ADP sites, like many other commercial web sites, may utilize a standard technology
called "cookies" to collect information about how our site is used. Cookies
were designed to help a web site operator determine that a particular user had visited
the site previously and thus save and remember any preferences that may have been
set while the user was browsing the site. Cookies are small strings of text that
web sites can send to your browser. Cookies cannot retrieve any other data from
your hard drive or obtain your e-mail address. If you are simply browsing an ADP
informational site, a cookie may be used to identify your browser as one that has
visited the site before. We may also make use of memory-based cookies in support
of authenticating the user of certain ADP web applications. Similarly, if you are
a registered user of a site providing service to ADP clients (and have a user ID
and password), we may use cookies so that we can provide personalized information
based on preferences you have indicated while using the site. Although you have
the ability to modify your browser to either accept all cookies, notify you when
a cookie is sent, or reject all cookies, it may not be possible to utilize ADP services
which require registration if you reject cookies.
What are your choices regarding collection, use, and distribution of your information?
If you have voluntarily provided information, you consented to the collection and
use of your personally identifiable information as described in this Privacy Statement.
If, in connection with your use of a particular service, we ask to use your data
in a way not described in this Privacy Statement and you do not wish to permit that
use, you can choose not to use the particular service. If you have voluntarily provided
personally identifiable information, we may, from time to time, send you mail or
e-mail regarding products and services. If you do not want to receive such offers
and mailings, you can easily indicate that by checking the appropriate box on the
submission form.
How can you correct, access, and update your information?
You may view and edit your personally identifiable information at any time by contacting
us using the link provided on the web site.
How do we protect your information?
We exercise great care to protect your personally identifiable information. This
includes, among other things, using industry standard techniques such as firewalls,
encryption, intrusion detection and site monitoring. Unfortunately, no data transmission
over the Internet can be guaranteed to be 100% secure. As a result, while we strive
to protect your personally identifiable information, we cannot ensure or warrant
the security of any information you transmit to us or receive from us. This is especially
true for information you transmit to us via e-mail. We have no way of protecting
that information until it reaches us. Once we receive your transmission, we make
our best effort to ensure its security on our servers. Internally, we will restrict
access to your personally identifiable information to employees who need access
to the information in order to do their jobs. These employees are limited in number,
and are committed to our privacy policies. We will review our security arrangements
from time to time as we deem appropriate.
How can you help protect your information?
If you are using an ADP web site for which you registered and chose a password,
we recommend that you do not divulge your password to anyone. We will never ask
you for your password in an unsolicited phone call or in an unsolicited e-mail.
Also remember to sign out of the registered site and close your browser window when
you have finished your work. This is to ensure that others cannot access your personal
information and correspondence if others have access to your computer.
Other sites
ADP sites may contain links to other sites, including those of our business partners.
While we seek to link only to sites that share our high standards and respect for
privacy, we are not responsible for the privacy practices employed by other sites.
If you have questions or concerns regarding this statement, you should contact us
at ES_Privacy@adp.com.
