Like many Web sites, this site collects information from its visitors permitting you to communicate directly with us via e-mail.

Passive Information Collection
As you navigate through our Web site, certain information can be passively collected (that is, gathered without your actively providing the information) using various technologies and means, such as Internet Protocol addresses, Internet tags, sessions ,cookies, and navigational data collection.
We use Internet Protocol (IP) addresses on this site. An IP address is a number assigned to your computer by your Internet Service Provider so you can access the Internet and is generally considered to be non-personally identifiable information, because in most cases an IP address is dynamic (changing each time you connect the Internet), rather than static (unique to a particular user’s computer). We use your IP address to diagnose problems with our server, report aggregate information, determine the fastest route for your computer to use in connecting to our site, and administer and improve the site.
“Internet tags” (also known as single-pixel GIFs, clear GIFs, invisible GIFs, and 1-by-1 GIFs) are smaller than cookies and tell the Web site server information such as the IP address and browser type related to the visitor’s computer. We do not use Internet tags at this site.
“Session” cookies are temporary bits of information that are erased once you exit your Web browser window or otherwise turn your computer off. Session cookies are used to improve navigation on Web sites and to collect aggregate statistical information. This site uses session cookies.
A “cookie” is a bit of information that a Web site sends to your Web browser that helps the site remember information about you and your preferences.
“Navigational data” (“log files”, “server logs”, and “clickstream” data) are used for system management, to improve the content of the site, for market research purposes, and to communicate information to visitors. This site uses navigational data.
Security of personal information
Novotech will take reasonable steps to protect personal information as it is transmitted from your computer to our online resources and servers, as well as to protect personal information in its possession from unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration or destruction.
This information will be shared within Novotech only. Except as described above we will not knowingly disclose any of this personal information to outside parties unless you have consented to the disclosure or we are required by law to do so.
While we endeavour to keep information and materials on the Site, including those provided by you or on you behalf, secure and confidential, we will not be responsible for any breach of security caused by third parties and do not represent that our Web site is completely secure.
