OriginLab is committed to protecting your privacy. You can
visit most pages on our site without giving us any information
about yourself. But sometimes we do need information to
provide services that you request, and this privacy statement
explains data collection and use in those situations. This
privacy statement only applies to OriginLab.com; it does not
apply to other online or offline OriginLab sites, products or
services. Please read the complete OriginLab.com privacy
statement.
Collection of personal information
We will ask you when we need information that personally
identifies you (personal information) or allows us to contact
you. Generally, this information is requested when you are downloading a
demo of our products, signing up for an event or training, or when purchasing
and/or registering OriginLab products. Personal information collected
by OriginLab.com often is limited to e-mail address, language,
country or location, but may include other information when
needed to provide a service you requested.
For example: If you choose a service or transaction that
requires payment, such as making a purchase in the Store area
of the Web site, we will request personal information
necessary for billing and/or shipping, such as: name, address,
telephone number, and credit card number.
When you buy and install a new product, we may ask you to
register your purchase electronically. We keep this
registration information on file with any information you've
already given us on previous visits to our Web site.
OriginLab also collects certain information about your
computer hardware and software. This information may include:
your IP address, browser type, operating system, domain name,
access times and referring Web site addresses. This
information is used for the operation of the service, to
maintain quality of the service, and to provide general
statistics regarding use of OriginLab.com.
Use of your Personal Information
We use your personal information for the following purposes:
- To ensure our site is relevant to your needs.
- To deliver services, such as newsletters, events, training
or software, that you request or purchase.
- To help us create and publish content most relevant to you.
- To alert you to product upgrades, special offers, updated
information and other new services from OriginLab, if you so
request.
- To allow you access to limited-entry areas of our site as
appropriate.
We will merge site-visitation data with anonymous demographic
information for research purposes, and we may use this
information in aggregate to provide more relevant content. In
some limited-entry sections of OriginLab.com, with your
approval, we will combine site-visitation data with your
personal information in order to provide you with personalized
content. If you decline permission, we will not provide you
the personalized service and won’t merge your personal
information with site-visitation data.
We occasionally hire other companies to provide limited
services on our behalf, mailing and sending postal mail and processing event
registration. We will only provide those companies the
information they need to deliver the service, and they are
prohibited from using that information for any other purpose.
OriginLab may disclose your personal information if required
to do so by law or in the good-faith belief that such action
is necessary to: (a) conform to the edicts of the law or
comply with legal process served on OriginLab or the site; (b)
protect and defend the rights or property of OriginLab and its
family of Web sites, or (c) act in urgent circumstances to
protect the personal safety of OriginLab employees, users of
OriginLab products or services, or members of the public.
Your information may be stored and processed in the United
States or any other country in which OriginLab or its
affiliates, subsidiaries or agents maintain facilities, and by
using this site, you consent to any such transfer of
information outside of your country. OriginLab abides by the
safe harbor framework as set forth by the U.S. Department of
Commerce regarding the collection, use, and retention of data
from the European Union.
Control of your Personal Information
When you register, or otherwise give us personal information,
OriginLab.com will not share that information with third
parties without your permission, other than for the limited
exceptions already listed. It will only be used for the
purposes stated above.

OriginLab.com to communicate with you. After registering, go
to the Profile Center and establish your preferences in the
Contact Options sections. There, you can decide what

through OriginLab.com, and do not want to receive such
information, do not check the box on the Checkout page (or on
other pages where personal information is collected) which
says: Yes, I would like to receive other offers through
shop.OriginLab.com.
OriginLab.com may send out periodic e-mails informing you of
technical service or security issues related to a product or
service you requested, or confirming you requested a product
or service. You will not be able to choose to unsubscribe to
these mailings, as they are considered an essential part of

statistics with partner companies but do not allow other
companies to place clear gifs on our sites.
