Atma will not share the personally identifiable information you provide through a survey with other third parties unless Atma gives you prior notice and choice.
Atma does not share your profile individually with other third parties. If shared, Atma shares your profile in aggregate form only. This may be used to determine the number of unique users or number of unique requests to our site or aggregated data based on unique user provided data which could be shown on theSite or in media releases. For example Atma may show the number of unique users by state code without individually identifying you or your exact location.
Atma may share personally identifiable information with third parties for the purposes of determining the number of unique users or unique page views. This information may include location and/or device information.
The security of your personal information is important to Atma. When you enter sensitive information such as passwords on our registration or login forms, Atma encrypts that information using secure socket layer technology (SSL).
Atma follows generally accepted industry standards to protect the personal information submitted to Atma, both during transmission and upon Atma’s receipt of it. However, no method of transmission over the Internet, or method of electronic storage, is 100% secure.

Special Information Transmission Clauses

Atma uses session cookies to make it easier for you to navigate theSite. A session ID cookie expires when you close your browser. A persistent cookie remains on your hard drive for an extended period of time. You can remove persistent cookies by following directions provided in your Internet browser’s “help” file
Atma may set a persistent cookie to store your passwords, so you don’t have to enter it more than once. Persistent cookies also enable Atma to track and target the interests of Atma’s users to enhance the experience on theSite.
If you reject cookies, your ability to use some areas of theSite will be limited. Some of Atma’s partners (e.g., advertisers) may use cookies on theSite. Atma has no access to or control over these cookies.
This privacy statement covers the use of cookies by Atma only and does not cover the use of cookies by any advertisers.
Atma may employ a software technology called clear gifs (a.k.a. Web Beacons/Web Bugs), that helps Atma better manage content on theSite by informing Atma what content is effective. Clear gifs are tiny graphics with a unique identifier, similar in function to cookies, and are used to track the online movements of Web users. In contrast to cookies, which are stored on a user’s computer hard drive, clear gifs are embedded invisibly on Web pages and are about the size of the period at the end of this sentence. Atma may tie the information gathered by clear gifs to Atma’s customers’ personally identifiable information.
Atma may use clear gifs in Atma’s HTML-based emails to let Atma know which emails have been opened by recipients. This allows Atma to gauge the effectiveness of certain communications and the effectiveness of Atma’s marketing campaigns.
