Click-Stream Data
Resistance Fighter uses technology to track your use of this site, for example, which pages you view and which links you use. If you use a link on this site to access information provided to us by third parties, this technology tells us how you use these resources. This information about your use of this site and the resources available through this site is called "click-stream data." Click-stream data helps us determine what is important to you, and what is not. It helps us decide what content and features to add and what to discard. It also helps us determine whether our site is easy to use or whether we need to redesign certain pages and links. Click-stream data does not identify you personally, but it can be linked to your user name and password. If Resistance Fighter links any click-stream data to your personal name we will treat it as personal information.
Other Information Collected by Resistance Fighter
When you access resistancefighter.com, we collect the following information and other information of a similar nature: the name of your Internet service provider, its IP address, and the name of its server; your operating system (Windows, Macintosh, Unix, and so on); and your browser type (Netscape, Internet Explorer, and so on). This information does not identify you personally or your company and is not linked to your username or password. Resistance Fighter uses this information to improve our site and make it more compatible with the technology used by our visitors.
Resistancefighter.com shares some Web site traffic information about Web site visitors who have clicked on an online banner with a reputable third-party advertising company for the purpose of targeting future campaigns and upgrading visitor information used in reporting statistics.

Disclosure of Personal Information
Resistance Fighter shares personal information collected through this site with its affiliates, who may use the information in the same ways as Resistance Fighter may use the information. For example, although resistancefighter.com is owned by a United States subsidiary of Syngenta Corporation, many of our users live in Canada. We, therefore, share personal information about our Canadian users with Syngenta's Canadian subsidiaries, who use the information in accordance with this Privacy Statement. If you do not want Syngenta to share your personal information with its affiliates, please notify us.
Both Resistance Fighter and its affiliates share personal information collected through this Site with third-party vendors who act for or on behalf of Resistance Fighter and/or its affiliates, for example, companies that provide support services to us or that help us market our products and services. These companies may need information about you in order to perform their functions. These companies are not authorized to use the information we share with them for any other purpose.
In addition, there may be some other, limited circumstances in which Resistance Fighter or its affiliates may share or transfer the information in their databases to an unrelated third party, for example, to comply with a legal requirement, for the administration of justice, to protect your or your company's vital interests, or in the event of a corporate sale, merger, reorganization, dissolution or similar event.
Where appropriate, before disclosing personal information to a third party, Resistance Fighter will contractually require the third party to take adequate precautions to protect that data against unauthorized use or disclosure.
Data Integrity and Security
Resistancefighter.com strives to maintain the reliability, accuracy, completeness and currency of personal information in our databases and to protect the security of our databases. We keep your personal information only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes for which it was collected or to comply with any applicable legal or ethical reporting or document retention requirements. Our servers and our databases are protected by industry standard security technology, such as industry standard firewalls and password protection. The employees who have access to personal information have been trained to handle such data properly and in accordance with our security protocols. Although we cannot guarantee against any loss, misuse, unauthorized disclosure, alteration or destruction of data, we try to prevent such unfortunate occurrences.
