(“Policy”) to disclose our data collection and disclosure policies and practices
for this website and all related web pages (the “Site”).

Policy, please refrain from use of the Site. All information gathered from the
Site, including any information specifically relating to you, will be stored and
processed in the United States. If you access the Site from a location other
than the United States, your use of the Site constitutes consent to the transfer
of your information to the United States.
Third Party Sites
The Site may contain links to other websites over which we have no control. EFI
is not responsible for the privacy practices or policies of other websites and
entities, even if another website is accessed or linked to or from the Site. We
encourage you to review the privacy policies and terms and conditions of such
websites so that you can understand how those entities collect, use, and share
your information. This Policy applies only to the Site and information that EFI
collects on this Site. The Policy does not apply to any information that EFI may
collect by alternative means or media.
Collection and Use of Information Personal Information
Personal Information. EFI collects personal information from users only
on a voluntary basis. When purchasing goods and services from the Site, we ask
each user to provide items such as the user's name, address, e-mail address,
telephone number, facsimile number, and credit card information. Each purchaser
will have a username and password associated with their personal information.
We use your personal information to provide certain products and services you
request through the Site, to operate and improve the Site, to improve existing
or introduce new services, and to create a positive user experience. From
time-to-time, we may also use information we gather to inform you of new
products or services; however you may opt-out of such communications if you
prefer not to receive them. You may also opt out of any opt-in email lists to
which you subscribed. To opt-out of any such email communications from EFI,
please follow the opt-out instructions in the email or send your request to
opt-out using our contact page.
We will use telephone numbers only to contact you with information regarding
purchases or other requests.
Non-Personal & Anonymous Information. Regardless of whether you register
with the Site, EFI collects non-personal and anonymous information from all our
users to be used in an aggregate fashion. This information helps us to determine
how we can create a better experience for our users. Accordingly, EFI collects
system-related information (such as an IP address, browser type, operating
system type, and pages accessed) to be used for system administration purposes,
to help diagnose problems with our servers, to monitor traffic patterns, to
determine which services are used most frequently, and to assess site usage.
Disclosure of Your Information
EFI does not sell or rent your personal information to third parties; however,
EFI may share your personal information with third parties as explained in this
Policy and as further described in our Notice of Privacy Practices.
To provide products or services you request, EFI shares your personal
information with third parties in an effort to satisfy your request. For
example, if you wish to purchase products or services through the Site, we may
share your personal information with suppliers so that your purchase can be
processed. We may also disclose your personal information to entities employed
to perform functions on our behalf.
If one of EFI's business lines or the entire business is acquired or
transferred, whether by merger, consolidation or purchase of a substantial
portion of assets, EFI may disclose and transfer your personal information to
such third party. In addition, if EFI becomes the subject of a bankruptcy or
insolvency proceeding, whether voluntary or involuntary, EFI or its trustee in
bankruptcy may sell, assign, license or otherwise transfer your personal
information in a transaction approved by the appropriate court.
EFI may disclose your personal information to third parties when we believe, in
good faith and in our sole discretion, that such disclosure is reasonably
necessary to: (a) enforce or apply the terms of this terms and conditions of
this Site; (b) comply with legal or regulatory requirements; (c) protect the
rights, property or safety of EFI, our users or other third parties; or (d)
prevent a crime or protect national security.
EFI may disclose de-identified aggregate information to its clients, business
partners, merchants, advertisers, potential advertisers, investors, potential
buyers and other third parties if EFI deems such disclosure, in its own
discretion, to have sound business reasons or justification.
Security of Your Information
EFI saves your personal information in a secure environment so that you can
easily use our services upon return visits. EFI may retain information we gather
about you indefinitely.
We employ encryption technology in an attempt to prevent personal information
from being intercepted during transmission over the Internet. The Site requires
that you use a Web browser that supports 128-bit encryption. The Site also uses
a Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) protocol. As an added security precaution, all
personal information is kept on a physically separate server with firewalls to
help prevent intruders from gaining access. Although EFI has implemented various
measures to help protect your information, no technical measures are guaranteed
to completely prevent unauthorized access, use, or disclosure, and EFI makes no
such guarantees.
Your account profile is password protected. Only you and any person to whom you
disclose your password can access and modify your profile. Accordingly, you have
the responsibility to protect and maintain the confidentiality of your password.
Cookies
EFI does not currently use “cookies” on the Site, although they may be used in
the future. If used, “cookies” will be used only for the convenience of our
users and to enhance your experience using the Site. A cookie is a small text
file that is recorded on your hard drive by a web page server. It is not used to
deliver viruses or other harmful programs to your computer. Rather, cookies
enable EFI to recognize a user without requiring the user to repeatedly log in
when using the Site or other EFI websites. Additionally, cookies allow EFI to
monitor traffic patterns and site usage, which help make the Site more useful.
Please note that most browsers can be set to accept or decline cookies. You also
may be able to modify your browser setting to notify you each time a cookie is
created and permit you to accept or decline cookies on an individual basis or to
accept cookies from websites that meet certain disclosure and use
specifications. However, please be advised that declining cookies may hinder
performance of the Site and thereby negatively impact your experience using the
Site if cookies are ever used on the Site.
Although EFI does not currently permit third parties to advertise on the Site,
it may do so in the future. Anonymous aggregate information collected on the
Site may be used to provide advertisements of products or services that may
interest you. When you click on any of these advertisements, a cookie may be
placed on your computer by a third party. Use of this cookie would be subject to
the third party's privacy policies; however, please note that these third
parties and third party advertisers would not have access to EFI cookies placed
on your computer.
Children
The Site is not intended for children. EFI does not knowingly or specifically
collect personal information from users under 18 years of age or authorize such
users to use the Site or EFI services. However, adults with custodial care of a
minor may use the Site for entering a purchase order on behalf of the minor. If
EFI becomes aware that it has collected personal information from a user under
18 years of age, it retains the right to take steps to delete such information
from its database.
Policy Changes
We reserve the right to change this Policy at any time and for any reason. In
particular, EFI may modify this Policy from time-to-time to reflect changes in
the way we collect, use or disclose information or to reflect changes in privacy
laws, regulations and/or industry standards. We reserve the right to make the
revised policy effective for information we already have about you as well as
information received in the future. Accordingly, we encourage you to review this
Policy from time to time in the future. Your continued use of the Site following
changes to this Policy indicates your acceptance of those changes.
Applicable Law, User Terms

conflicts of law principles. This Policy is further incorporated into by
reference and made an integral part of the EFI Terms and Conditions of Website

arising hereunder shall be resolved in accordance with the dispute resolution
procedures set forth in the Terms.
