TRS Privacy Statement
Protecting the individual's privacy on the Internet
is crucial to the future of Internet-based business and the move
toward a
true Internet economy. TRS has created this privacy statement to
demonstrate our firm commitment to secure and trustworthy Internet
commerce and the individual's right to privacy.
Consent
By using this Web site, you consent to the collection and use of
the information as described here. If we decide to make changes
to this privacy policy, we will post the changes on this page
so that you will always know what information we collect, and
how we use it.
Use and Purpose of Collected Personal Data
On our Web sites, we only store personal information relating to
you with your permission. You may choose to reveal information
to us if, for example, you register or complete a survey. Companies
in the TRS group may use the information internationally in connection
with processing your inquiries and orders or to help improve
our products and services.
We would only share such information with third parties outside
the TRS group with your express permission or as required by the
applicable law. Information is used solely for the purposes described
below.
Privacy Across the Entire TRS Network
As a global company, TRS operates a number of Web sites around
the world. Any information that you submit to one of our sites
in any one country may be sent electronically to a server for
one of these sites in another country. We safeguard your privacy
interests around the world by ensuring that this TRS site adheres
to our international data-protection principles described in
this statement.
We bind our employees to observe your privacy and confidentiality
rights.

Details
1. What Information Do We Collect and Why?
IP Addresses
We use IP addresses to help diagnose problems, to administer our
Web site, and to gather demographic information. When you visit
our site, we recognize only your domain name and not your e-mail
address. We will see your e-mail address only if you give it
to us by filling out a form or by sending us an e-mail message.
Cookies
We use cookies to deliver personalized content, to save you having
to re-enter your password repeatedly, to keep track of your shopping
cart, and to tailor our information offerings to how you and
others use the site.
User Registration
If you choose to register, we can send you requested information
or products, other product information, news, or promotions.
E-mail Addresses
If you choose to give us your e-mail address, we will communicate
with you via e-mail. We do not share your e-mail address with
others outside the TRS group of companies. You can choose not
to receive
any more e-mail at any time.
Depending on how your e-mail application is set up, information
about you may be transmitted automatically when you send e-mail
to TRS.
If you choose to register for third-party services, we may
need to send some information from your TRS.com registration
to the
service provider, possibly including your e-mail address
-- but only if your requested service cannot be provided otherwise.
Shopping or Event Registration
Our site includes order forms that you fill out to request
information, products, and services. These forms collect
your financial information,
such as your financial information that you submit solely
for billing and payment purposes for that special transaction.
Online Surveys
Our surveys may ask you for demographic information, such
as postal codes or your industry sector. If the online
survey collects contact
data, we may use that data to send you further information
only if we specifically asked for your permission in the
survey.
You
are free to retract any permission you gave.
2. Links to Other Sites
This site contains links to other sites. TRS is not responsible
for the privacy practices or the content of other Web sites.
3. Choice/Opt-Out
You can opt out of receiving e-mail communications from us whenever
you like. You only need to e-mail us to have your name and details
removed from TRS's e-mail list or registration database.

example, you wish to inspect or update the information we hold
about you -- feel free to contact:
