Verifia is committed to its customers, web visitors and other constituents in protecting the privacy of an individual’s personal information that is collected via Verifia’s marketing efforts, our web site, and our TiP or InfoScope products. In accordance with best business practices, we have conferred with privacy and security resources and have communicated to each Verifia employee the importance of an individual’s privacy.

Verifia believes in protecting an individual's private information. Our IP-based geolocating technology and the company’s behavioral profiling technology do not identify personal or otherwise sensitive information such as your street address or phone number and we do not attempt to link any of our geographic data with any personally identifiable information about a particular user. The IP-based information that we gather is dynamically generated and only used to analyze and report network traffic patterns. Verifia’s technology does not store a web visitor’s information or build user profiles. Customer information, as well as the information provided for our analyses, will not be disseminated, transferred, or shared with any other entities without a party's prior written consent.

Nor does Verifia reveal to third parties or resell any information about those individuals who chose to email the company with personal information or who register personal data such as their e-mail addresses onto our company web site (www.Verifia.com). In addition, our clients are established organizations with their own privacy policies geared towards safeguarding customer privacy. And Verifia will not contact you without your explicit permission (by your act of voluntary registration on our web site, for example).

Furthermore, no Verifia employee can view or otherwise retrieve your passwords or other personally identifiable information other than what a person has entered upon voluntary registration to our corporate web site. Access and usage of this personal information is limited to stated business purposes and this data is not resold or redistributed outside of official Verifia operations.

If you have any questions regarding our privacy policy, contact us at privacy@verifia.com.

Privacy Procedures
Verifia’s technology actually enhances a user's web capabilities while being less intrusive than current intelligence methods such as cookies and required user registration. Moreover, Verifia maintains personal privacy standards in the deployment of its technology and in all practices.

  • Verifia's technology is non-invasive.
  • Verifia's technology does not collect or identify a user's personal information. The technology does not utilize registration or click-stream data. There is no collection of personal data such as name, home or e-mail address on the part of Verifia.
  • Verifia's business focuses on the prevention of identity fraud and data privacy. Verifia's pledge is to support web sites in providing the best service and experience to their web visitors by enabling more content to be available on the web and by providing the means for a more relevant, customized user web experience.
  • While Verifia prides itself on serving respected clients who practice better business practices, Verifia does not control the privacy policies of its customers, and therefore cannot prevent customers from merging geographic information with data collected from non-Verifia sources. For this reason, we encourage you to carefully examine the privacy policies of Web sites you frequent.


The Handling of Corporate & Personal Information
Verifia does not collect your personal data. Information requested on our corporate web site at www.Verifia.com is entirely voluntary, at the discretion of a user who wishes to receive ongoing news about Verifia. This requested information includes name, e-mail address, phone number. Passwords and user names are not required for the use of our site or for the receipt of additional company information.

Methods of Information Collection
Personal information provided voluntarily by an individual to Verifia through the www.Verifia.com corporate web site is an opt-in process, solely at the discretion of the individual registering. Information gathered by Verifia's technology may include the country, state (where applicable), city, zip code, company, and Internet access method associated with the particular IP address from which you are using the Internet. This information is dynamically generated to provide network traffic patterns and is not stored by Verifia for the creation of user profiles. Nor does Verifia identify or record where individual users come from before they enter a particular web site, or where they go after they leave that site.

Your personally identifiable information will never be sold or shared by Verifia with any affiliated or unaffiliated third parties, except in unusual circumstances as required by law. For example, in a legal case, Verifia may be required by law to confirm that you had registered on our web site, or that your IP address is based in a certain country. Or Verifia may share information to a third party in order to protect and defend the rights and property of Verifia, its customers, partners, or other affiliates. Verifia reserves the right to share aggregated information of a non-personal nature with third parties.

Moreover, any email that you send to Verifia will be considered confidential to within the company and its affiliates, unless you have expressly provided us with permission to forward the email to unaffiliated parties.

The Handling of Personal Information – Data Protection & Security
Verifia understands the need for our constituents' personal data to be completely secure and private, and we have deployed a robust system to protect our customer's personal information. The company maintains physical (alarm systems, locks), electronic (firewall) and policy (limited internal access, privacy and safety guidelines) safeguards to protect any personal information. Moreover, we do not create user profiles and registered users may choose to remove themselves from the Verifia database and mailing list at any time.

The Application of This Privacy Policy to Third Parties Using Verifia's Software
This Privacy Policy only applies to Verifia and the company web site, and not to sites that employ the company's technology.
