Searchworks strongly believes in keeping the trust of our clients, partners and employees.
We believe that by protecting the personal information of our customers we ensure their protection, and ours. This privacy policy is designed to inform you, the user, client or partner, about what information Searchworks gathers and how this information is used and how it is protected.
Your Personal Information
Through the operation of Searchwork's service, we may request or require personal information, such as your name, email address(es), phone number(s), address and other demographic information. It is the purpose of this policy to inform you of how this information is used and protected. Any personal information that is collected is either used for the operation of our service, or the specific client with whom we gather the information. We may use aggregate data to develop a profile of the general population of our users for use in business development and communication with partners and clients. However, in no way will Searchworks use or share your personal, individual information with any non-related third party.
Website Usage
Searchworks uses standard log files to analyze website traffic. Any information we collect is used for internal purposes to improve the content, features or overall service of the Searchworks services and to provide the services required by an individual client. We do not use personal information for any reason that is not disclosed either in this privacy policy or at the time the information is requested.
Third Party Disclosure
Searchworks does not share your personal information with any non-related third party without your permission. We disclose, only in aggregate form, our statistical analyses or demographics of users to third parties such as sponsors or non-related business partners. This aggregate information does not include names, email addresses or any other individual-specific or identifying information.

Security of Information
Searchworks has taken all necessary measures to ensure that our customer's and user's information is as secure as possible. When we collect information from our customers or users, it is stored in an area to which the general public does not have access.
Opting-out
Whenever appropriate, website users will be given the choice to "opt-out" of any uses of their personal information, such as email bulletins. Aside from an automatic reply to an email received by us, it is our intent not to email to you unless you request a particular service, or consent to being contacted by email. There may be instances where you will have the opportunity to subscribe to an email list that will send you the appropriate information, but this will be continued only with your permission and consent throughout the duration of the service.
Effect of Privacy Policy
This privacy policy is effective and up-to-date as of January 1st, 2004. Searchworks reserves the right to change this policy at any time and will post any changes to this policy as soon as they go into effect.
