We hope this privacy policy statement will answer any questions you may have, but if it does not, please feel free to contact us at the email address or postal address shown below.
Please note that most products and services on the Objective3D websites are sophisticated 3D Printing Solutions aimed at mechanical engineers and other manufacturing and design professionals. These products generally cost hundreds and thousands of dollars and Objective3D Pty Ltd does not consider them to be consumer products.
In general, you can visit the Objective3D websites without telling us who you are or revealing any personal information about yourself, such as your name, phone number, or postal or email address. Our web server collects IP addresses to obtain certain aggregate information concerning the use of our website. An IP address is a number that is automatically assigned to your computer whenever you’re surfing the web. We do not link IP addresses to any personally identifiable information. Therefore you can remain anonymous when you visit our website.
Our web servers also collect information such as number of visits, average time spent on the site, and pages viewed; however, this information is not traceable back to an individual user. Objective3D Pty Ltd uses this information to analyse how people use our site and generate ideas on how the site might be improved.
Some of our web pages utilize “cookies” so that we can better serve you with tailored information when you return to our site. A cookie is data that our website may send to your browser and it is kept on your computer to facilitate your next visit to our site. The cookie data may improve form interactions based on information you have previously given to us. For example, in some cases, we will allow you to bypass a web form if a form cookie exists, or we may pre-fill a form with previously supplied contact information. You can, if you wish, set your browser to notify you when you are sent a cookie, giving you the chance to decide whether or not to accept it.
Occasionally you may be asked to give us more specific information about yourself, such as when you download software, register for a seminar or other event, respond to a survey, enter a contest from our website, and register at the customer portal. Supplying such information to us is optional, but you may be unable to complete certain transactions without giving such information.
