Last modified: March 30, 2012

This Privacy Policy applies to all of the products, services and websites offered by Religent, Inc. for the information we collect and how we use it. We may collect the following types of information:

• Information You Provide - When you sign up for any of Religent's services, we ask you for business and personal information. We may combine the information you submit under your account with information from third parties in order to improve the quality of our services and provide you with a better experience. This information is only used within Religent and never released outside of Religent without explicit instructions by you. We take reasonable efforts to guard business or personal information we knowingly collect directly from you, but no security system is impenetrable.
  
  
• Billing Information - Religent may use third-party vendors to store and process credit-card billing information. In each case, Religent will only provide the minimum information necessary to process the bills and will be sent in a secure, encrypted format. Any third-party vendor used by Religent will be required to demonstrate they will process the information in a secure manner and will only use the information provided by Religent for billing.
  
  
• Cookies - When you visit Religent, we may send one or more cookies to your computer or other device. We use cookies to improve the quality of our service, including for storing of user preferences, improving search results and tracking user trends, such as how people search.
  
  
• Server Information - When you access Religent services via a browser or application or other client we automatically record certain information. These server logs may include information such as the date and time of your request, what service or application you accessed, your Internet Protocol address, and information specific to your account.
  
  
• User Communications - When you send email or other communications to Religent, we retain those communications for an indefinite time in order to process your inquiries, respond to your requests and improve our services. We also may use your email address to communicate with you about products, product upgrades and services.

In addition to the above, we may use the information we collect to:

• Protect the rights or property of Religent or our users.
  
  
• Provide, maintain, protect, and improve our services and develop new services

If we use this information in a manner different than the purpose for which it was collected, then we will ask for your consent prior to such use.

Religent processes personal information on our servers in the United States of America. We also process personal information on third-party hosting sites located in the United States of America and Canada.

Information sharing

Religent only shares business or personal information with other companies or individuals outside of Religent in the following limited circumstances:

• We have your consent. We require opt-in consent for the sharing of any business or personal information.
  
  
• We have a good faith belief that access, use, preservation or disclosure of such information is reasonably necessary to (a) satisfy any applicable law, regulation, legal process or enforceable governmental request, (b) enforce applicable Terms of Service, including investigation of potential violations thereof, (c) detect, prevent, or otherwise address fraud, security or technical issues, or (d) protect against harm to the rights, property or safety of Religent, its users or the public as required or permitted by law.

If Religent becomes involved in a merger, acquisition, or any form of sale of some or all of its assets, we will ensure the confidentiality of any personal information involved in such transactions and provide notice before personal information is transferred and becomes subject to a different privacy policy.

Security of Client Information

We take appropriate security measures to protect against unauthorized access to or alteration, disclosure or destruction of data. In addition, highly confidential personal information such as credit card number and password that we request from you on our web sites or applications are protected with encryption, such as Secured Socket Layer (SSL) protocol, during transmission over the Internet.

We restrict access to personal information to Religent employees, contractors and agents who need to know that information in order to process it on our behalf. These individuals are bound by confidentiality obligations and may be subject to discipline, including termination and criminal prosecution, if they fail to meet these obligations.

Accessing and Updating Personal Information

When you use Religent services, we make good faith efforts to provide you with access to your personal information and either to correct this data if it is incorrect or to delete such data at your request if it is not otherwise required to be retained by law or for legitimate business purposes.

We ask individual users to identify themselves via a unique User ID and Password combination and allow their information requested to be accessed, corrected or removed by each user via the Internet. However, we may decline to process requests that are unreasonably repetitive or systematic, require disproportionate technical effort, or jeopardize the privacy of others. After you delete your information, residual copies may take a period of time before they are deleted from our active servers and may remain in our backup systems for a period of time.
