Data We Collect

ONYX will only collect personally identifiable information, such as your name, address, telephone number, or email address that you provide or that is provided to us with your permission. Portions of this website may not ask you to supply your personal information, allowing you to visit our site without telling us who you are. However, some areas or services may require you to provide personal information to receive promotional offers. When you register with us, you may need to complete certain fields (some are required and some are optional). In this instance, if you choose to withhold any personally identifiable information required by us, it will not be possible for you to obtain the promotional offers.

In addition, ONYX may collect non-personally identifiable information about how you use our websites using analysis technologies. These analysis technologies may be provided by third parties. Information that might be collected using these technologies includes, for example, the pages you visit on our site, the paths you take within our sites and the length of time that you spend on our websites. We use this information in the aggregate to better understand how to improve the quality of our websites.

Cookies and Internet Tags

Like many websites, this website uses a technology called "cookies." A cookie is a small text file that a web server gives your browser to store on your computer when you access a website. Cookies are capable of storing many types of data and may be placed on your browser by ONYX or by a third party. Cookies may be used for a variety of purposes on this website:

• This site sets cookies that keep you from having to enter a password more than once during visits to one or more of our sites.
• We also use cookies to help us analyze usage of our sites and traffic among our sites more accurately, and to provide you with information of interest to you. For example, cookies are used on this site to record the total number of hits received on the site and web pages.
• Cookies also allow ONYX to determine whether you came to this site from another ONYX site or from an advertising banner or link on a non-ONYX website, so that we can, for example, measure the effectiveness of the links among our sites and the effectiveness of our advertising on non-ONYX websites.
• Similarly, cookies allow us to determine whether you register on or visit any of our websites, which enables us to analyze how particular users use our sites and whether registered and unregistered users of our websites use our sites differently.
• Cookies also allow us to maintain information about how particular visitors use our family of sites, which enables us to better provide such visitors with information relevant to their interests. This may include using information about your use of our sites in conjunction with personally identifiable information that you have volunteered to us on one of our sites.

This is not an exhaustive list of all uses of cookies on this website. In all cases in which cookies are used, however, neither ONYX nor any third party will use the cookie to collect personally identifiable information from our site unless you voluntarily agree to enter the information. Most web browsers are set up to accept cookies. You can, however, reset your browser to refuse all cookies or to indicate when a cookie is being sent. Note, however, that some portions of our sites may not work properly if you refuse cookies.

Some ONYX websites use a third party advertising service to display advertising on other non-ONYX websites. In addition to placing advertisements on certain non-ONYX web pages, these services may also place a segment of code called a clear pixel tag, also known as a "GIF,” on certain ONYX web pages for the purpose of measuring the effectiveness of advertisements in bringing visitors to our websites. GIFs may also be used with cookies to track the total number of visitors to our website, the number of visitors to various web pages, and the domain names of our visitors' Internet service providers. No personally identifiable information is collected in this process.

As is common among Internet site operators, ONYX websites maintain web server logs. Web servers automatically identify your computer by its IP address and collect that information in its web server logs. ONYX web server logs collect statistical data that is generated by your computer when it visits an ONYX website, such as the type of web browser (e.g., Netscape, Internet Explorer) and operating system (Windows XP or Mac OS) used to access the site, the domain name of your Internet service provider, the date and time you access our site, and the pages you visit. ONYX websites use this non-personally identifying web server log information for a variety of purposes. Some of these purposes include: system administration; to examine overall traffic trends on our sites; trouble-shooting; and to gather broad demographic information about users of our sites. No personally identifiable information is contained in these web server logs.
