"Personal Information" means information that identifies you, such as your name, telephone number, and email address.
We may ask you to provide Personal Information when you:
Personal Information we request may include your email address, name, job title, company name and telephone number. We may also collect demographic information, such as your business or company information, interests, and preferences. Forms that you choose to complete will indicate whether information requested is mandatory or voluntary.
We may collect information about your visits to our websites, including the pages you view, the links and advertisements you click, search terms you enter, and other actions you take in connection with UNICOM websites and services. We may also collect certain information from the browser you used to come to our website, such as your Internet Protocol (IP) address, browser type and language, access times, the Uniform Resource Locator (URL) of the website that referred you to our website, and to which URL you browse away from our site if you click on a link on our site.
In order to offer you a more consistent and personalized experience in your interactions with UNICOM, information collected through one source may be combined with information UNICOM obtains through Third Party Marketing Consultants. This may include information that allows us to identify you across multiple devices through which you access our websites.
UNICOM uses your personal information to:
UNICOM Engineering does not sell or distribute your personal data to third parties for direct marketing purposes. We may share generic aggregated demographic information not linked to any personal data regarding visitors and users with third parties, for the purposes outlined above. Please see our Cookie Policy for more information about this sharing.
We do employ third party service providers to assist us with our marketing activities and or support services. We will only provide those third parties the information they need to deliver the service, and they are prohibited from using that information for any other purpose.
We may also disclose your Personal Information in connection with law enforcement, fraud prevention or other legal action; as required by law or regulation; if UNICOM (or a part of UNICOM) is sold or merges with another company; or if UNICOM reasonably believes it is necessary to protect UNICOM, its customers, or the public.

Please note that some information may remain in our records even after you request deletion of your information as permitted by law.

UNICOM takes all reasonable steps to protect your Personal Information from misuse, interference, and loss, as well as unauthorized access, modification or disclosure. The ways we do this include:
UNICOM takes children's privacy seriously. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under the age of 16 through our websites.

We use cookies to store your preferences and other information on your computer in order to save you time by eliminating the need to enter the same information repeatedly.
A cookie is a piece of text that is placed on your computer's hard drive. Depending on the settings you have selected, your browser adds the text to your device as a small file. Many browsers are set to accept cookies by default. You have the ability to accept or decline cookies as you prefer. The Help portion of your web browser, most likely found on the toolbar, typically tells you how to prevent your browser from accepting new cookies, how to have the browser notify you when you receive a new cookie, or how to disable cookies altogether.

Some marketing you receive, including email marketing, may also be personalized based on your visits to unicomengineering.com and your browsing and download history.

A web beacon is an electronic image that can be used to recognize a cookie on your computer when you view a web page or email message. Web beacons help us measure the effectiveness of our website and our advertising in various ways. For example, web beacons may count the number of individuals who visit our website from a particular email message or they may tell us when a web page is viewed and provide a description of the page where the web beacon is placed. Web beacons may also measure the effectiveness of our email campaigns, by counting the number of individuals who open or act upon an email message, determining when an email message is opened and determining how many times an email message is forwarded. Subject to local laws, we may combine the information that we collect through web beacons with other Personal Information we have collected from you.
You can make some web beacons unusable by rejecting cookies in your web browser as described in the How We and Our Partners Use Cookies section above.
