Analytics

How Your Data is Shared

By visiting our website you agree to have your visit and each interaction shared with 3rd party analytics software. This allows us to improve the quality of our website and helps us to provide better products and services to our customers. The type of information collected may include data that tells us what browser is being used, the keywords used to find our website, what pages are visited, how long a visitor stays on each page, what videos are watched, what forms are filled out, etc. We will never disclose personally identifiable information such as names, addresses, phone numbers, or email addresses with 3rd parties except to the extent necessary to be able to fulfill a user's request. This does not apply to any data we must keep for administrative, legal, or security purposes.

Data Retention Policy

If you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata are retained indefinitely. This is so we can recognize and approve any follow-up comments automatically instead of holding them in a moderation queue.

For users that register on our website (if any), we also store the personal information they provide in their user profile. All users can see, edit, or delete their personal information at any time (except they cannot change their username). Website administrators can also see and edit that information.

You can also request that we erase any personal data we hold about you. Once again, this does not include any data we must keep for administrative, legal, or security purposes.

Data Transmission

Visitor comments may be checked through an automated spam detection service to prevent fraudulent spam submissions. Users caught submitting spam comments will be permanently banned from accessing this website.

Additional Information

How We Protect Your Data

We have legal, administrative, and security procedures in place to protect your data. This is accomplished by only disclosing data to parties that need to know it. Your data may be shared with CEOs, managers, computer technicians, and other company personnel for the sole purpose of meeting your needs and answering any questions you may have. Our website employs sophisticated firewall technology to block attackers and those who may wish to intercept personal data. Additionally, we use SSL security on our website which encrypts all communication between your computer and our website. This helps to prevent man-in-the-middle attacks (otherwise known as eavesdroppers). This effectively keeps your information safe and out of the hands of other parties who may have malicious intent.

Data Breach Procedures

Westgate Computer takes security seriously and we take every precaution to protect our website and our customer’s data by using the security methods mentioned previously. However, in the event of an unforeseen data breach, you will be notified and may be requested to change your login password, if one is used, to keep your data safe. From time to time,· we will perform a website security audit, ensure our site is free of malware, and implement new security procedures if any are needed to ensure our website and your privacy are maintained.

Some of the content published on our website may originate from third parties such as vendors and other affiliates we do business with.
