Cookies & Log Files
Like most web sites, Direct.Mirren.com uses cookies and web log files to track site usage. A cookie is a tiny data file which resides on your computer which allows Direct.Mirren.com to recognize you as a user when you return to our site using the same computer and web browser. Unfortunately, if your browser settings do not allow cookies, you will not be able to use our website. Like the information you enter at registration or on your “My Account” page, cookie and log file data is used, with the goal to customize and provide a better experience on the web site.
One type of cookie, known as a “persistent” cookie, is optionally set when you log in to your Direct.Mirren.com account. If you select this option, the next time you visit the Direct.Mirren.com web site, the persistent cookie will allow us to recognize you as an existing user so you will not need to log in before using the service. If you log out of Direct.Mirren.com you will need to re-enter your password the next time you visit in order to log in to your account. Another type of cookie, called a “session” cookie, is used to identify a particular visit to Direct.Mirren.com site. Session cookies expire after a short time or when you close your web browser.
Due to the communications standards on the Internet, when you visit Direct.Mirren.com we automatically receive the URL of the site from which you came and the site to which you are going when you leave Direct.Mirren.com. We also receive the Internet protocol (IP) address of your computer (or the proxy server you use to access the Internet), your computer operating system and type of web browser you are using, as well as the name of your ISP. This information is used to analyze overall trends to help us improve Direct.Mirren.com.

Information Sharing
Sharing Information with Third Parties
Mirren takes the privacy of our users very seriously. We will never sell, rent, or otherwise provide your personally identifiable information to any third parties for any marketing purposes. We will only share your personally identifiable information with third parties to carry out your instructions and provide specific services that you request. For instance, we use a sophisticated credit card processing company to bill users for subscription fees. These third parties do not retain, share, or store any personally identifiable information except to provide these services and are bound by strict confidentiality agreements which limit their use of such information.
We may provide aggregated data about the usage of our services to third-parties for such purposes as we deem, in our sole discretion, to be beneficial to our users. We may segment our users by role, industry, geographic location, and/or company. If you would like to be excluded from the aggregated research or products based upon aggregated data about our users’ activities on the site, please send a request to account.services@mirren.com.
Partnering with Other Organizations to Offer Valued Services
Mirren may partner with other services to give you the combined results of both services. For example, we may partner with research companies to provide research to help you in the new business process. Whenever we offer such combined services, it will be your choice to make use of the combined services or not. No highly-confidential information, such as credit card data, will be provided to the partner services.
Adding Users
Existing users are able to add new users to their account via webform.

If Direct.Mirren.com sees the information for the profile of this newly added user to be inaccurate, this new user may be blocked from access until which time the information can be confirmed to be accurate and qualify with our Terms and Conditions.
Legal Disclaimer
It is possible that we may need to disclose personal information when required by law.

California Do Not Track Disclosure
Mirren does track its customers over time and may track them across third party websites to provide targeted advertising and therefore does not respond to Do Not Track (DNT) signals. However, some third-party sites do keep track of your browsing activities when they serve you content, which enables them to tailor what they present to you. If you are visiting such sites, widely used web browsers allows you to set the DNT signal on your browser so that third parties (particularly advertisers) know you do not want to be tracked.
Changes to this Privacy Policy
Direct.Mirren.com may update this privacy policy. In the event there are significant changes in the way we treat your personally identifiable information, we will update the Privacy Policy on this site.
