Privacy Policy

Smart Systems has created this privacy statement in order to demonstrate our firm commitment to privacy. The following discloses our information gathering and dissemination practices for this website: www.smartsysinc.com.

We use Google Analytics to analyze traffic to this web site. These tools do not create individual profiles for visitors. Unlike some tracking services Google Analytics do not have a database of individual profiles for each visitor – they only collect aggregate data.

Our online surveys ask visitors for contact information (like their email address). The customer’s contact information is used to contact the visitor when necessary. Users may opt-out of receiving future mailings; see the choice/opt-out section below.

Persistent cookies
These enable us to recognize anonymous repeat visitors to the site.
