Periodically, we may send you information about our various products and services, or other products and services we feel may be of interest to you. Only Extreme Corporation (or agents working on behalf of Extreme Corporation and under confidentiality agreements) will send you these direct mailings.

Customized Experience

New technologies are emerging on the Internet that help us deliver customized visitor experiences. At Extreme Corporation, we primarily use "cookies" to help us determine which service and support information is appropriate to your machine and to maintain your shopping experience in our online store. Our use of this technology does not mean that we automatically know any information about you. We might be able to ascertain what type of computer you are using with which internet web browser, but beyond that, our use of cookies is designed only to provide you with a better experience when using any of our web sites. Extreme Corporation has no desire or intent to infringe on your privacy while using our site(s).

Third-Party Sites

Please be aware that other web sites that may be accessed through our site may collect personally identifiable information about you. The information practices of those third-party web sites linked to Extreme Corporation's web site(s) are not covered by this privacy statement.

You are solely responsible for maintaining the secrecy of your passwords or any account information. Please be careful and responsible whenever you're online. If you post personal information online that is accessible to the public, you may receive unsolicited messages from other parties in return. While we strive to protect your personal information, Extreme Corporation cannot ensure or warrant the security of any information you transmit to us, and you do so at your own risk.

Children's Privacy (Age 12 and Under)

Extreme Corporation takes children's privacy seriously.

Extreme Corporation does not seek to collect personal information about children through its Web site. Extreme Corporation does not condition a child's participation in an activity on the disclosure of more personal information than is reasonably necessary to participate in the activity.

If we become aware that a person submitting personal information to us through any part of our Web site is a child, we delete the information as soon as we discover it and do not use it for any purpose, nor do we disclose it to third parties.

Since we do not seek to collect any personal information about children, and we delete any information collected inadvertently as soon as we discover that a child has submitted it, we typically retain no information about children that could be reviewed or deleted. If a parent requests review or deletion of information about their child before we have discovered and deleted the information, then we will of course honor that request.

Extreme Corporation is not responsible for the privacy practices of the Web sites that it does not operate.
