Privacy Statement
Veeco intends to give you as much control as possible over your personal
information. In general, you can visit Veeco on the Web without telling us who
you are or revealing any information about yourself.
Policy Overview
Protecting your privacy is very important to Veeco. We have adopted the
following policies to safeguard your personal information and are committed to
protecting its confidentiality. We will limit the collection and use of
personal information to what is necessary to administer our business, provide
you with the highest quality service, and offer you opportunities we think will
be of interest. We will not disclose any individual information to third
parties.
Personal Information
Veeco collects personal information from our visitors on a voluntary basis
only. Personal information may include name, title, company, address, phone
number, e-mail address, etc. The individual information we collect is used by
Veeco only to process requests for information which have been placed by our
customers or otherwise provide you with high quality service and to market our
products, events and/or services. We do not sell, rent or transmit personal
information to other organizations outside of our distribution network. Veeco
may also retain electronic communications you send to our customer service
representatives or webmaster. These may be shared within Veeco as a means to
improve customer service.
All personal information you provide to Veeco is secured on our server with
restricted access. Veeco reserves the right to use agents, who are bound by
strict confidentiality guidelines, to perform storage and processing functions.
Only designated employees or agents who need to carry out legitimate business
functions are permitted to view your personal data. Employees or agents who
violate Veeco's privacy policies are subject to disciplinary actions, up to and
including termination.
Links to Other Web sites
The Veeco web site, www.veeco.com, may contain links to other sites, and we
make every effort to link only to sites that share our high standards and
respect for privacy. However, we are not responsible for the content or the
privacy practices employed by other sites.
Web Server Specific Data
Our web server tracks and collects general information about the visits to our
Web site. While IP addresses (the Internet address of a computer) are logged to
track a user's session, the user remains anonymous. We analyze this data for
certain trends and statistics, such as which parts of our site users are
visiting, how long they spend there, the visitors' domain names, and what
countries those requests come from. We do not link your IP addresses to
anything personally identifiable to you.
Disclosure
Because Veeco considers the individual information we maintain to be
confidential, our policy is to disclose no personal information to third
parties unless release is required by law or is pertinent to judicial or
government investigations or proceedings.
